however, i know that there are some members who have recently joined who are justing to learn poker and may not have deposited at ps etc and i dont want to exclude them.

what do you guys think?
I like the idea... But i'm sort on cash ever since i cashed out on ps. I only got the $4.50 i made in the freeroll sadly. I'll try to make more nut you are right, most people didnt deposit on PS. not looking right now.. but i also think the idea about the entry to the freeroll is great.

I think I have an idea that will still keep it a freeroll but also cut down on the sit outs. All you have to do is restrict the registration so that you cannot register until the tourney is about an hour or two away. That way you know people are near the computer cause they just registered. I think alot of the sitouts are people who register a couple days in advance and then forget, change plans, fall asleep etc. Or, you could hold them on Absolute Poker where they automatically eliminate anyone who has not taken there seat during the first level. But if you want to make them a buck that is cool too, now that I have a HUUUUUUGE bankroll on pokerstars topping out at a whoppin 6 bones.

The $1 idea is great... but and u may know, i was left with my bad luck streak. So I banked my $400 so I couldnt lose anymore. Only problem is i only have my $4.50. So i am boosting my bankroll little by little so its at $7.25 lol. Would deposit more, but its not necesarry right now.

yea i think keeping this a free roll is a good idea and if u want to do a 1 dollar buy in then do it but do it seperately

I love these freerolls

Either way works for me Id gladly do the dollar,its within my range(barely )lol...but seriously the money generated would be a plus,less sitters a plus.As for the guys without the dollar who love the game it would sting a bit.Plus youd like to keep those guys around as well as bring more in,, seeing how the quanity and quality of people add to the site.

I would very much like to participate in the freerolls, but alas, I've not been a member for 14 days.

Make the one in 2 weeks $1000, or you could loosen up the restriction? Pretty Please? lol.. It was worth a shot.

I just signed up, I understand the 14 day member before playing Freerolls ....But 25 posts? I don't talk to anyone that much, not because i don't want to paticipate but not much of talker. How about just having members post finishs or somethig so you don't have to come up with somthing to say 25 posts thats a lot of jokes or something.

25 posts isnt asking too much, just give your opinion on stuff, and before you know it you will be at 25

i think some money tournies would be nice. i do like the freerolls too. i did like the jetset tourny. getting rid of no shows was nice and made all the people at the tables play. the PS sat freeroll the chipleader was put at a table with 8 sitters and he just sucked chips. i like the idea of trying different sites too. granted i dont know if i would deposit on all of them just to play a money tourny. thanks for this weekends freerolls!!
