Tournament Info Alert

Post by CanadaWest »

How about some method of providing players with more information about specific tables and tournaments?

How to qualify for restricted or sponsored tournaments. Information about the sponsor of the table or tourney. prize pool, add-ons, rebuy levels... etc.

This might be accomplished with an alert with the "Register" button on it as well.

I've been using the Site News and the webside with little success. Still getting TONS of questions.

Cheers!

The technical settings are viewable on the table's general info screen. I was thinking about making a direct button link to that on the lobby. But otherwise, the custom HTML available to you around the edges was made just for that, as well as ads. Also, the site news automatically pops up when there's been any change to it since their last logon. If they aren't reading that, they likely won't read any other alerts.

That would be a nice touch for users to have that button instead of having to load up the table each time. Dude, this software just keeps getting better and better!

The info button is nice but it still doesn't allow us to provide the player with extra information.

Eg. "This tournament is sponsored by ABC Ltd. In addition to the 50,000 chip prize pool, the top 3 finishers qualify for ABC's Monthly championship. ABC Ltd. is owned and operated by our very own Dan "SuitedAces" Jones. The password for this tournament wil not be distributed. Visit www.ABC.com where you will find the registration form."

Would it be too difficult to add an AdditionalInfo field to the tourney and table setups and have the paragraph display at the top of the general info screen?

I'll put it on the wish list.
