Daily and Weekly Contests: 50 hands

Post by Webman »

Beginning Monday, we'll be trying out 50 hand contests in the Daily and Weekly contests. Monthly contest sessions will remain at 100.Our hope is that this will allow people to "squeeze in" a session in their day when a 100 hand session may be too long, and possibly allow more people to play both the daily and weekly.Some players clearly have the time to play 100 hands many times a day, but for others, this may present more opportunities.

I think it is a good idea.

Thank you Webman.  It has bothered me that Multi-Strike was changed to 50 for the favorites who complained it took too long yet Cleo was kept at 100 and it's a very painfully long game to play. Now they're all the same, yeah!!

Always good to test something out to see how it runs and how it is received.

The Jingle Bells and Christmas Tree are very nice but the 50 hands are like kissing your sister.

I think this is a good idea. There have been several times where I've thought, so I have time to play 100 rounds?

I like the new 50 hands format. You need to come up with some more member pics for the lead in page for the contests, it's always the same 3-4 people.

I like the 50 play because I can start fresh sooner with renewed hope to hit something, anything!

I for one do not like the 50 hand contest games!

Doesn't seem right: Half the fun for twice the ads?
