Get ready for the newbie onslaught

After seeing the PDC line up for NDNPT, I see alot of new people
showing up here this week and month.
If I saw a $200 freeroll, I would find out how I could play.

Are you ready members to greet them all?

I am looking forward so much to 24 PMs a day asking how to get into the games.

FYI i shall ignore every single one of them.

Unless NDN gives me an auto response kinda thing.

Tricky thing to do, cos the system we have works for long term members, but sucks if your new and dumb

Ringo will rule this forum from now on...
If the 500 freeroll is costs 4000 chips than the field will be very small i guess.

The news of the big games did put a smile on my face.

But the premiere TV showing of The Rock Horror Picture Show
has done wonders for me. it's almost over now

I saw that movie 40+ times when I was in the 70's
and still love it.
Tim Curry was brilliant

Good film.

And PMing me 25 times just gets your ignored faster.

Ringo - Ive obviously had my inbox set to larger as with the trivias and the BAP and the geneneral "mod"ness i do, i get lots of PMs.

You could PM NDN and ask him, but as your in a usergroup with other people, it might be impossible to set one persons for higher.

And having everyones higher just lags the forum.

I had 220 PMs in my file from one week. ONE.

And i replied to 90% of them i reckon.

omg i cant wait. this is gonna be funny. i will say that there will be about 20-30 requests per day when the $200 and $500 are about to happen. i cant wait to see the threads that read how can i get the password or how can i get the pass word or can someone give me the password. i say we ignore them all. lol or just post the link on how to and leave it at that. should be fun. :iamwithstupid:

The good news is that the new players will not be able to obtain the passwords for the games unless they put in some effort to get them.

Remember that new members will need to earn reputation before they can earn chips and they will need to contribute to the forum before the chips will add up to enough to purchase a password.

I'm hoping this will eliminate any chance of a password leak (but I do have some other plans if we run into any problems).

There are still a few more games to add to the schedule. As soon as they are up I will make an official announcement about the games.

I'll also get to work on creating a better and more obvious place for new people to learn more about our system and how to get in the games.

I'll admit that the first month of the new games isn't going to be fun for everyone (myself included) because it will take some time to determine the best buy-in amounts for each type of game.

I'm going to do my best to arrange it so that each game has a very limited field (making the games highly valuable for those who play them).

One reason for the new games is to increase the amount of new players so I will do my best to answer any and all questions that they may have.

It would be nearly impossible for a new player to earn reputation and earn enough chips to join on the day that they register for the forums.

So I am hoping that those who like the concept will put the effort in to get into the games and those who are looking for the quick password will not have any luck in doing so.

Ultimately it would be great to generate new active members and return some of our older inactive members back to active status!
