Ive only played Gold, mixture of 5,10,and 20. Played 40 games. Scores I actually got were 305 for first 20, and 185 for second lot.

My blocks scores are now 250 and 240. So although the 490 total is right, the individaul blocks are very wrong,and just look to be an average.

3 days in and its a sad and sorry mess, and as usual, absolutely no communication from BF/Ongame as to whats going on.

I have not played a single sng game since sunday, when I finished 100 games, so all 5 blocks completed, and my score keep falling with each update, basicly scores for each block are completely different each time.

I am going to resume grinding sng games so I get my ass up to skill and go leaderboard and I do wonder how will that affect my Xmax20StreaK scores.

Really a shame they cant sort this **** with leaderboards, kinda put people off.

This promo is soon to end its first period and my score is still not according to their formula.

Not even that, it changes a few times daily. And I did not receive clarification about this from betfair.

It is complete and utter madness. The 3 players at the top of the Leaderboard yesterday with over 450 points, are now all outside the top 50 with scores around 300.

Like you say your scores change even for blocks that are completed a few times a day, I even went away for a few days this week and didnt even log into the poker client and my scores were changing. I can imagine a lot of people are mailing about this promo, it cant be nice seeing yourself top of the Leaderboard as Diego Forlan was last night with 450 points, then logging on today and finding yourself 29th with 360. Dr Klenk has fallen from 3rd to 102nd in 12 hours ! Laugh

Im 41st at the moment with a totally inaccurate score.Ive also got 5 games of my 4th block to play and have got 320 points from 15 games. Beacuse I cant trust the Leaderboard I dont know whether to go conservative and play 5 D2N's or stick with the 10 mans and potentially rack up over 430 points ?

Beats me chip, Im really clueless about this...no idea how they calculate it.

email BF, we have to put pressure on them so they react.

I hope next week will be better, I will thou, play one more block today to get on both leaderboards, hopefully no bad run :)

I finished block 4 on 415 points, enough  for a top ten finish if the current leaderboard is accurate, but thats anyones guess. Ive kept the numbers of the 20 games so will expect to get paid out. Laugh

It's a complete and utter farce, a few hours before the promo ends a whole host of players suddenly turn up with over 450 points. How this Ongame network is still functioning is a mystery to me. They are totally clueless.

Yeah played 90 donkaments over the week, finished $354 dollars in front, plus maybe another $25 in cake, $7.5 leaderboard money, plus whatever I get from the promo payout itself. Also managed 3 long days at work, and a couple of days holiday down in Hove, so cant complain, tho thats the last twice I've been down there and it's snowed. Blush

There's a guy now top of the board andrusgiz with 620 points. He allegedly got that in his first block of games yet only appeared on the leaderboard in the last hour or two.

For that score to be correct, he would have to be averaging over 30 points per game for 20 games, which seems very unlikely. It may come as no great shock to learn that his Scope stats are locked. Laugh

chip, that one is a cheater for sure, a colluder most likely.
By:
chipfire227
When: 08 Dec 12 14:22
I dont think he could be colluding in 10 seater games to be honest which is what he would have to be playing to get that score. I think its more likely that his score is a complete fabrication. Assuming he even exists. Laugh

He could be playing 5 max short handed games, 1st place 39 points.

I think points are real now, because my blocks are now spot on and did not change for a day.

Classic patronising response from Customer Service :

"Please be advised that tournaments are counted only when they have finished, not when the players have been eliminated from the actual tournaments.

This can of course cause some delay in points updating and players could get a bit confused with regards to which point need to be and have been added."


So it's my fault apparently. Strange is it not that the Terms and Conditions clearly state :

The leaderboard will use the start date of a Sit & GO tournament to determine which block that tournament belong to.
The leaderboard will use the start date of a Sit & Go tournament when crediting tournament points. For example, if you enter a Sit & Go tournament within the promotional period but the tournament finishes outside the promotional period, then any points awarded counts towards the leaderboard.


So basically they are using a completely different method of allocating points to that stipulated in their own Terms and Conditions, and its the players fault for not being phsycic and knowing that. Laugh

I did, from first period of this promotion, for second, I did not make it into top150

Yeah I got paid for finishing 31st in the first one, though I should have been 13th if they had done the calculations based on their own Terms and Conditions. Wink

As the first one was farcical (the leaderboard was constantly changing your totals even during a 48 hour period when you werent playing, and most ofthe players in the top 5 or 6 plavces all miraculously appeared a few hours before it ended )  didnt bother with the second, though my scores are wrong again for the games I did play.

I registered for the first of the MTT Christmas Promo games last night but there were over a thousand runners and with 2,000 starting stack it was just a shove fest from the get go. To get allthe tokens you also need to play Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Years Eve and New Years Day i.e. have no life whatsoever outside of poker.

Looks like these 2 promos may be all we are getting this Christmas, which is p1sspoor when compared with previous years.

My score was spot on for 1st stint of promo.

Also did not bother with second week, because I only managed 33rd and I had to play full ring SNG which are pain the ass to play :)

You are right, chip, where the hell are GOOD holiday promos??
