There is no late registration feature in Poker Mavens.

Is it a feature maybe going to be added in the future? For some reason this is a big issue with players being able to login and register for a tournament 15-30 minutes after the tournament starts!

Thanks...EDJ

Probably not any time soon. It would require a major rewrite of the tournament code just to accommodate a few people who can't be bothered to show up on time.

I feel the same disdain about people who cannot be bothered to pay attention to details, or who want their egocentricity accommodated....
On the other hand, I think the idea is not just about accommodating *those* people, it is about getting as much money as possible into the Pool, and viewing these late registrants as low-hanging fruit that will be easy pickings.

I can see why it would be a very low priority, though, in terms of your coding ROI.
