Break Level - Tourneys

Post by SVTF »

Would it be possible to get an option added so that we could add a 5 min break after a certain amount of time in a tourney?

I'll add that to my list. In the mean time, the admin can manually pause a tourney at any time. It might be in the middle of a hand if there are multiple tables running, however.

Thanks, I think the scheduled break addition to blinds structure would be a better way to handle this.

I've added "Break time" and a "Break levels" settings for tournaments in the version 2.20 beta. The time is the length in minutes (up to 60) of each rest break and the levels is the number of levels (up to 1000) in between breaks. Both can be set to 0 to disable breaks. In a multi-table tourney, the timer doesn't start until every table finishes its current hand. The administrator can abort the break by pausing and resuming the tourney. Send me an email if you'd like to test this before the public release.

Awesome - You are the man!

I have a scheduled tourney the 21st of this month - Will 2.20 be released by then?

If not I will send you an email so that I can use the beta version for that game.

Don't know yet. I was hoping to get some feedback on the rake system I added but the people who were screaming for it the loudest now don't seem interested in it.

I don't have enough traffic to test the rake for you .. sorry.

Call them on it ... Tell them you wanted ... I did the work to get it in there ... and you need feedback.
