Player Tracking

Post by tontodog »

I have noticed that as the play is being tracked everyone seems to be about equal in points.  If I hit four of a kind (such as in Super Aces) everyone seems also to hit at the same time.  I have just logged on and started playing and again everyone's points seem to be pretty much equal.  Also I get bored quickly as so few paying hands.  I would walk away from a machine like this rather quickly.  Is the draw supposed to be ramdom?

Yes, the draw is random and if everyone seems to have similar scores, it is probably because you are only seeing the scores near you. 
 
Are you in the top 10? See how their scores are different.  There is actually a very wide range of scores and there is no reason why people would hit similar hands at the same time as all flash player instances are unique.
 
Perhaps it would be beneficial to display even more scores somewhere so you and others can see the huge range.
 
Thanks for playing, we hope you keep at it and continue to compete.

You could implement a tab above the scores so we could select what scores to follow. They could be top ten, bottom ten (where I'm more likely to be found) and middle ten.

-OR- Making the second scores window scrollable so that we can see more scores above/below our own.

I love it so far...just "wasted" about 4 hours or so as I had to crawl out of a 6000 credit hole.   I would like to have a "favorite" list where you can select players that you want to compete with. I have some friends who will be joining soon and it would be great if we could create our own list to watch how each other is doing.

That's a great idea, flipchik. It would also be nice to see what game they are playing and whether they are "active" or not at the moment. Could also have a button to automatically send that person a PM.

You guys are reading the notes on my desk.
 
"Active player" indicators and a "friends" list are on the list of features to come, so stay tuned.
 
Great ideas. Keep them coming!

  I AGREE I WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO SEE MORE SCORES,  EVEN IF IT REQUIRED GOING TO A NEW SCREEN.   OTHER THAN THAT I LIKE IT!!!

Now THAT would be nice!  Maybe Webman will set something up so we only count the scores in our "Professional" sessions...
 
I do have a suggestion for an enhancement - an equivalent of a player's card that we can "cash" in periodically for more points (every little bit helps).
