Pre-UOS lll Community League

Recommended Posts

I'm now thinking maybe a freeroll before the UOS and holding off on the league till after, get the summer over and holidays out of the way, more members could find the time for a league, and more time for mods to put it in place, possibly for the 10,000 member milestone. 

or just play first 5 members to sign up and pay 4 places 🤣

OK @GR1ZZL3R 

Lets start setting up a Tourney format suggestion & time schedule, buy-in level, &/or rebuys, add on's etc.

Here is my suggestions...

Format - NLH & PLO... we have 2 Leaderboards so we keep all the players happy, those that prefer PLO & those that prefer NLH.

Time schedule - Two tourneys daily for both NLH & PLO. 1 during the day sometime & 1 during the evening sometime so everyone gets to play. If you play both tourneys in one day your highest finish counts towards the leaderboard.

Buy-in level - I would say a 50c - €1 buy-in.

Rebuys & add on's - I vote NO on the rebuys $ add-on's... I hate them 😠

So far I'm with you all the way @Nestabearno rebuys or add ons, I like to know the cost before I buy, no bounties either imo, just good old fashioned straightforward poker, 2 a day's a good idea as well, same time everyday cuts down on player pool, the more the merrier, 6 max or 9 handed? either for me, I'd say something like a twenty day series, best 10 results to count so you don't have to play every day, aim for start of October as the days get shorter and hop we have 10,000 by then. What else?

Obviously prizes would be down to the magnificent  mods,but I've noticed one or two members wanting to do giveaways, don't know wether they'd want to chip in with this or do their own thing, and as I've said I'm not well up on timings or payout structures, wouldn't want it too long but don't want to get to push or fold too soon either, there has to be some playability in the late stages, are you thinking small payouts for each tourney and bigger for leaderboard, maybe a grand final at the end? Come on guys, ideas wanted.👍

yeah I'm with you all the way

 I like this...

...are you thinking small payouts for each tourney and bigger for leaderboard, maybe a grand final at the end?

Yeah... small payouts for the daily tourneys & bigger for leaderboard with a grand final & a final tourney for the winners of the leaderboard.

I'm liking it so far, anyone else with input, could be a BIG community event, are you thinking for the big 10,000 members milestone. :wonder:

So :) A 2 weeks league sounds fun and feasible. The relevant colleagues come back from holidays one of these days and Jeppe should be back any day now from Bucharest so we can have a meeting about it, budget it and set it up. What would you say if we structure it like the last Community Rumble that we did for UO Malta?

@GR1ZZL3R Maybe if the League has a big enough echo, we could end the league with a 10000 members celebration... 500 members...not easy, but not impossible either.

@RayL I've got the bit between my teeth now and fired up with ideas, playing tourneys today so will come back with an outline asap tomorrow. Don't seem to have had much input except @Nestabear yet so I'll wait to see if there's any more feedback.👍

@RayL Morning all. With the UOS starting in 3 weeks I'm not sure how much time you'd need to set up a league, and @Nestabear's ideas were based on something running for possibly 3 weeks with a grand final a week later, so a similar version of the Malta Rumble might be more practical, which was very popular and created plenty of interaction and chat and the logistics are probably already in place. I also see @Nestabear has come up with some ideas already for the 10,000 members and terrific groundwork for a league, surely a big celebration needed for that particular milestone, and I don't want to but in or hi-jack that thread just chip in with some ideas. With it being such a large number loyal casinoites and bingoites deserve something as well, (shockingly not everybody plays poker) but I'm not really clued up on slots and such, so come on on in and kick some ideas around. If there's any promo on the cards you could reach that number quite quickly, so the more ideas the merrier and I'm sure whatever it is will be fun. :wow:

@GR1ZZL3R I think 3 weeks is a bit long maybe... how about 2 weeks with a grand final a week later ?

* (and I don't want to but in or hi-jack that thread just chip in with some ideas.) No Buds that's why we opened the tread, for ideas & suggestions...but it looks as if the community's not in the mood for feedback this week... LOL.

The more ideas are presented, the more choices the Mods have, the more enjoyable the whole celebration will be !!!

We'll get there... eventually.

Ok @Nestabear@RayL wether this is for pre UOS or 10,000 members let's update so far.

1. A two week tournament series, 1 PLO and 1 NLHE tourney each day, one in the afternoon and one in the evening, swopping over each day, day 1 afternoon PLO evening NLHE, day 2 afternoon NLHE, evening PLO etc, so a wide spread of time to play.

2. These would all require a small buy in so self funding and not attracting 1,000s of "tx please"

3. Leagues run seperately, best 7 results from each to count for seperate leaderboard, so no-one commited to all of them. Might be interesting towards the end if you're sliding down the league and have to catch up again.

3. Hopefully structured to give playability in later stages, but obviously not 4-5 hr nightmares.

4. Points decided as UOS formula maybe, depending on numbers in each tourney.

5. A grand freeroll final for top however many ( I'm sure Unibet will crunch the numbers ) a week later, according to time slot availability, one in afternoon, one in evening,or over two evenings, maybe slightly longer and deeper structure.

6. Again prizes decided by Unibet, (whatever they're willing to give, we'll take)

7. Possibly a special something for 1-3 ( Unibet again) players that perform best in the two finals combined.

8. Any alias during the leagues but extras for community aliases in the finals.

How are we doing so far.

I keep thinking of more. Is it just for the first 10,000 or do you want time to promote it and attract as many new members as possible? We already have Monthly Missions, now the Moving on up and soon the UOS itself.

More feedback needed.

ok... so here's my 2c worth

1.  I agree with a two week tournament series, 1 PLO and 1 NLHE tourney each day, one in the afternoon and one in the evening, swopping over each day, day 1 afternoon PLO evening NLHE, day 2 afternoon NLHE, evening PLO etc, so a wide spread of time to play.

This will give all Peeps a chance to play.

2. These would all require a small buy in so self funding and not attracting 1,000s of "tx please"

I say a micro buy-in, to give as many Peeps as possible a chance to compete... say like 50c ?

3a. Leagues run separately, best 7 results from each to count for seperate leaderboard, so no-one commited to all of them. Might be interesting towards the end if you're sliding down the league and have to catch up again.

yeah....the Leagues run seperately, but I think you should be able to give one or both Leagues a bash if you want.

3b. Hopefully structured to give playability in later stages, but obviously not 4-5 hr nightmares.

I think this will depend on alot of factors like Blinds level times, starting stacks, number of players ect. but I'm sure the Mods will find a nice balance to the structure of the tourneys, to make them enjoyable. They tend to be good @ that sort of thing. 

4. Points decided as UOS formula maybe, depending on numbers in each tourney.

I think the points should be clear cut & easy to understand. Top 5 or 10 get points. First = 10, Second = 9, Third = 8 etc.

5. A grand freeroll final for top however many ( I'm sure Unibet will crunch the numbers ) a week later, according to time slot availability, one in afternoon, one in evening,or over two evenings, maybe slightly longer and deeper structure.

Definitely a Grand Final Freeroll, for the top say 500. Maybe a Flip freeroll with a 1c buy-in & a bunch of UOS lll tickets as prizes. I also like the idea of maybe having one that is split over two days...  never done one of those....sounds like alot of fun.

6. Again prizes decided by Unibet, (whatever they're willing to give, we'll take)

The bigger the better, the more the merrier I say !!!

7. Possibly a special something for 1-3 ( Unibet again) players that perform best in the two finals combined.

Yes this sounds cool.... a little something in recognition for earning a top 3. Something like branded Unibet Hoodies maybe ?

8. Any alias during the leagues but extras for community aliases in the finals.

Or... community aliases for the leagues & any alias for the final   LOL

I'm on board with most of that @Nestabear, the only difference I would have is to play out a proper final rather than a flip, we wouldn't settle the Premier League on a penalty shoot out would we, but I'd go along with what most wanted. Points would have to be easily understood but you might have to spread them further or you might not get enough qualifiers for a final. Hoodies as prizes sounds really cool, structure and prizes up to our mods of course but I'm sure they won't let us down. The only slight worrying issue is nobody else seems to be commenting, is everyone on holiday or just not interested. It'll be me and you in the final then,* all in first hand and crack open the beers. My size is large.
