why is nobody replying ? I would like to hear an explanation here!

actually when i created the avatar i did not know that my bounty will be covering my eyes lol 😆

it's official. we all made it into the money. 😊

it might take a while before they found out what has happened. some friday night debugging 🙃

feels good at least not busting. 😄

the server is doing a massive pee-break.

nice. looks like we broke the matrix / server glitch. we might get a two day tournament ? 🙂

what happened ?

Bad Beat 1: Set Of Jacks Bad Beat 2 : Again Three Jacks not enough And with that busting on 6th place :

sounds nice, despite its being april 1 :happy: ! ticket please. let me bust it :happyshy:

Yeah thanks, it's not that serious luckily, but it's going for a very long time now, and it's a real struggle for me. Thank you for the bonus points! 😃 Next 3 weeks will be all about UOS so there won't be much time for designing anyway, but perhaps in december...

This was a final experimental deck. After trying adding the suits i realised it looks better without them :) Spade - Silver/Gray with Black Ranks Club - Dark/Black with Green Ranks Heart - Red with Orange Ranks Diamond - Light Blue/Purple with Dark Blue/Purple Ranks Spade and club looked pretty nice, Heart and Diamond could have been improved perhaps. I liked this deck, made a 2nd place on a UOS event with it. :)

4-color background version in game. Colors are distinct enough. Could need some fine tuning on the colors perhaps. After this there was one more different color design without suits before the stock designs got locked up and it was the end of designing.

The 2-color black background design was a bit favourite for me because the 4-color version does not look always good. That's because according to color theory blue and red are dissonant colors, and it looks more obvious on dark background than on white. I had quite a few color versions after i discovered that the colors need fine tuning, so it would be nice to be able to test the dark background designs perhaps before finalizing. But the 2-color red-white on black looks pretty cool, even though one has to check always what the suits are.

White background 4-color deck. Without transparency layer on the edges. Looks so pleasing to the eyes after the 2D/grapes design. Don't know yet how the Playfair Display font could look, might be even better and more stylish.

I don't understand this. I had to put spaces into your quoted text too to be able to post my message.

I noticed this topic when it was posted, but sadly i did not have enough time to reply on it because there are too many issues. First of all i am chronic sick for long years now, and i don't have much time to spare besides trying to make money to survive. I would like to design cards and thing like these, but it would be nice too if it wouldn't be for completely free. Even though i love designing even for free, time is too valuable right now. And to your comments about the designs. I have already tested mine and they worked completely fine in all conditions, and there are no visibility issues with the black ones in ANY of the table backgrounds. It's nonsense. White cards look also crap with bright table backgrounds, but still visible. There are some technical issues here. I did not use Adobe Illustrator, so i cannot provide you with . a i files. However i could give you .svg files which is roughly the same, vectorgraphics. BUT. My bigger problem with it is though it would take more time to create them, and it the end it seems like a complete waste of time because the client is using ridiculously downsized .png raster images for the cards. When i created my designs i used just raster images 16x larger than the size of the cards (4x width, 4x height) and then i had to resize them (uglify) for the clients card files. I measured that each card has a 96x144 pixel dimension what the client is using. So i used 384x576 images for each card. And yeah i noticed there is an extra 2 pixel band around the cards for the transparency which i could never reverse engineer. It would be nice to know that if i provide you with raster card design images what sizes they should be. Your designers could add the transparency borders around the cards, or you could provide me with the template perhaps. Here is an example left with my 384x576 pixel card design. On the right is the design how it looks downsized in the end, on 96x144 pixels. (I resized it back up to make it visible how the quality is downgraded in the end.) So i really did not want to work with vectorgraphics when in the end this is the result. I would rather work with even bigger raster images (1536x2304 perhaps) if needed rather than vectoring. This looks more than enough, but it's heartbraking to see how crappier the designs will look in the client :( In fullscreen it's really noticeable low res. I can provide you with the 4 suits in .svg files and the color codes for all my designs too. And the fonts used. But there is one more thing with them. I used a commercial font (Guardian), so if thousands of people would use the designs playing poker i think it would be necessary to buy a license for it. Could be around ~100 euros i don't know. Or it should be an open source font, which is right here in this example (Playfair Display). It is a stylish classic font, gives a bit more vintage card look similarly as the Guardian font (which is actually a newspaper font but with a classic look). I also have another font in plan for a more futuristic, spacy design cards (Aldrich font) which is also open source, and would be perhaps in alignment with the space-like tournaments and avatars and so. The card suits are open source vectors i found, so they are no issue. I could make them in a few days, white background 2-color, 4-color, black/dark background 2-color/4-color, and 4 colored background cards. With these two fonts each that would be quite some files though. And also the thing with the T or 10 ranks, more extra designs. I would not want to work on them if they won't be used or tested at least in advance, so that's why i wrote this. Current card designs look decent and consistent now, but i still got them bored now like hell. The grape-like clubs, 3-circles and a triangle, it really hurts my eyes after while, so childish and novice looking :) This is an example of a deck i could give. 52 x 24-bit .png files 384x576 pixels large. 4 extra more files if i add T ranks instead of the 10. Left side of the card is still visible with the 1 so it's useful enough i think. But yeah, ask your designers about the technical stuff. What size of .png files should i send you, and can you give me the template perhaps. Will look for older screenshots about my designs how they looked in game.

Anyone can try this who has generic and specific tickets of the same value. Go to the tickets section, choose one of your SPECIFIC tickets, you will see the list of available tournaments where you can use them. Choose a tournament, then select Register. You will be presented with the option of using up a ticket for that tournament, but NOT that ticket which you used to select that tournament. I found this UNETHICAL FUNCTIONING. I see it's not on the priorities cause it gives no profit for unibet. In fact it will cost profit. Because as we all know, profit maximising within the laws are the sole objective of corporations without the need of ethical funcitioning. Yes i heard already that "unibet is not making big money from poker" blablabla. FINE, then why not function ethically ? Well it's not on the priorities list as i see. "A corporation is an organization—usually a group of people or a company—authorized by the state to act as a single entity" - from Wikipedia "If corporations are indeed "persons," their mental condition can accurately be described as pathological. Corporations have no innate moral impulses, and in fact they exist solely for the purpose of making money. As such, these "persons" are systemically driven to do whatever is necessary to increase revenues and profits, with no regard for ethical issues that might nag real people. But, you say, corporations are owned and managed by real people, so surely immoral corporate actions might be inhibited by them? Well, not really. First of all, the officers and directors who run corporations are actually duty-bound to act in the corporation's best financial interest, and that means they are obliged to do whatever they can within the law to make money. Thus, this fiduciary duty requires corporate management to set aside ethical niceties when they get in the way of corporate profits." - just google Why Corporations Are Psychotic You might find this a bit offtopic here and outrages, but i see it as a clear example of lack of "ethical priorities". I am disappointed and tilted at the moment. Although it's a relatively MINOR thing i know, compared to people losing hundreds of euros because of getting disconnected after ddos attacks, but i feel i need to RAISE attention on these "little" things, which can be hugely annoying and disturbing for recreational players here. I am not a professional player, but i play a bit more than normal recreationals. It would be nice if these fixes wouldn't take years. I have shared my thoughts now, i know some people usually come here on these occasions and start doing the "oh you shouldn't be so upset about these things and blablabla" and "be happy that you can play here". For these people thinking about replying to my thoughts overprotecting unibet, i am suggesting, take your time and use for something else instead. I am not interested in these comments whether i should not be upset. Of course i should not be that upset, but you know this happened to me so many times over the years and i am STILL not used to this, and now i got fed up by this, because if i don't complain, NOTHING WILL CHANGE about it ever. Thank you for letting me share my opinions on this. Hope there will be some change soon.

After enough occasions losing generic tickets one learns to double check everything. But i also forget this in the good hope that i am not getting scammed in these situations. It would be so nice if automatically the right thing would happen, which is that the client autoselects SPECIFIC tickets for that tourney if they are AVAILABLE. Calling it a Scam is going a little bit too far in my book. However we don't really live in a "would be nice" reality, but we do live in "it just is this way" reality and it's up to ourselves to adjust to what is. :happyshy: soft scamming what you are trying to tell me is that this world is not that nice a place where i could expect not being taken advantage in these situations. which means in other words i should be thankful if the client would autochoose the specific ticket at any given time. that would be sooo GENEROUS from unibet.

Tell me it's not intentional! I won a ticket to Nebula today, i register, client picked up one of my generic tickets. I bust, rebuy window autochooses one of my other generic tickets. Fantastic! I don't know how many times this happened already to me, but it's becoming frustrating! Like i win a unibet open ticket, alright let's play a unibet open qualifier! Client checks if i have a generic ticket, and will use it up when i register instead of the unibet open ticket! Fking brilliant guys! Just keep making us disappointed with these moves. I started playing here in 2016, and been stuck here since most of time, and hardly using any other platforms. But now i see there are better options, because too much messy things happen on this platform beside the things which are OK.

This is so frustrating. I open up the client, get a ticket. It expires in like 2 days (?) Reg opens at 16:30, tournament at 20:30. Ok, will come back later anyway when i am playing more tourneys. 18:00 i open the client, tournament is already full, 2.5 hours before start. I wish you would not have sent anything at all, then it would not hurt to watch missing such a freeroll..

2500 is 2500 😃

You can't register, because it's already full. There is a typo in description what says 2500 players is the limit but in reality 1500 only. How do you know that it's a typo, and not the other way round - limit was set incorrectly for tournament ?

Infoboxes got fixed AFTER i restarded the client while in games. Too bad one has to do it once something breaks.
