Ruh Roh I hadn't tried to register yet so I hadn't seen that......I sure hope either (A) they fix it, or (B) Everyone shows up

I was hoping it would just be a few people, more of a chance to get the money. But I guess it could be more of a challange if more people showed up. Lol.

I had no trouble signing up. Maybe some of the staff should enter the contest to make it the 10 min!!! Maybe even more, so it could be a two table SnG. But either way, good luck everyone, and hope to see you all there.

Hello everyone.

The tournament will be reset in the next hours, and will require you to re-register.

We changed the numbers to min 2 and max 12. There will be 2 starting tables of 6 each.

Good luck to you all

But if not that many people show up, some of the staff should be in it. They could be like bounty's! Would bep retty cool if that happened.

Nice... I came up with a good idea.:P But seriously mods/staff, think about it. Just do the same thing you are doing now, but have it up against you. Like Employee's vs. Members with bounty's on Employee's.

Lol, maybe it could be on Fridays instead. I know I would like the tourneys to be on Fridays at this time. But, it's there decision, so I'm cool with it.

Anyway, good luck. So far, 5 people are in it, and it pays top 2 places. Gonna be a battle no one wille ver forget.
