Free Contest Games
OK - I figure that I missed a memo somewhere, but what happened to all those free contest games that I had in the little gold shield last month? I just got back from Vegas, and they are gone.

They re-new every month. You start from scratch.

BUMMER !! With the Monthly Contest at the end of the month, I didn't even get to use them. Better pay closer attention this month.

WebMan, I think having the ability to earn extra contest games is great. But, like in May, if you have a monthly contest that goes right to the end of the month, you have to use your extra games BEFORE the monthly contest starts, or you will lose them. Too much to remember.
Would you consider a different 'purge' date other than the first of each month, say the 5th? In that way, if you haven't had a chance to use your extra games when the monthly contest roles around (since it is usually at the end of the month), you would still have an opportunity to use them before they expire.

But I would rather use them to play daily contest games that I enjoy playing OR in a daily contest that I think that I can be competitive. Some of the daily contests are put out of reach with a lucky hand by someone early on.

How can you have a monthly contest if you change it to end the 5th of the next month to satisfy one player.

For now we will be keeping as it is rather than expiring them on the 5th or something similar. Making such a change would impact the Winner's Challenge too much (and add a whole bunch of confusion when some of your sessions magically disappear on the 5th and some don't, since you'd earned them since).We would like everyone to have the same chance in the Winner's Challenge when the month begins.Naturally, everyone CAN get a 3 session jump-start if they play their 5 sessions on the last Daily Contest of the month, which will give you 8 to start the next month instead of 5, which is how it was before the Winner's Challenge.
