Ha you fool!!

By posting this here you have gone against their security protocols and have set yourself up for grimming.

You've not even crossed out your unique lottery ticket number!!

If someone else gets to this cash award before you you only have yourself to blame.

Got to admit reading through this thread has left me feeling a bit of a fraud, as you can see I am not a regular poster, but I do read through the forum most days and keep up to date with the major event through the updates.  Take Take Take, is all I have ever done.

Bit late I know, but just registered with the poker client and made my first deposit, will play my ipoker games on blonde from now on.

Thanks Owen.

I think more than 20 Members have told us the same thing - they have now Deposited on blonde & will play a bit there from now on - in the last 24 hours, including some huge rakers. It's extraordinary. If they all come through, our Cardroom Revenues will spike sharply upwards with immediate effect.

And then we can try & undo all those things we regretted having to do.

Thanks again, to you, & all the others who have offered to help in one form or another.

Nice one Owen

If this was a bird watching forum, (with live updates )...I'm not sure how to generate income............but FFS were poker players......play on whatever site you like, just add some Blonde into the mix !!

[amcgrath1uk]

Certainly the Manchester/Bolton based events I can cover quite cheaply ( as in I live 5 mins walk from Manchester G, work 10 mins away from Bolton) if it were to come to such things... need an excuse to use my digital camera

Aside from the help given by DTD today, we also had a bunch of help from Joe Beevers, over at THM.

He's come up with a whole raft of things that may help, & we are discussing them further with him very shortly, probably Monday.

It's terrific that our two Forums get along so well, & that THM is run by such genuine guys. We've helped, & respected, each others Forums since Day One. Joe, in fact, assisted me in the first ever blonde Live Update, from Copehagen, & has been helping us ever since. We will continue to respect Joe, & the THM Forum, as long as I'm around, & we won't queer their pitch, ever.

Just throwing a few thoughts out there (admittedly, have only gotten to page six of thread, will go and read rest after I add this 2 cents, apologies if it's already been covered or the ideas are naiive to the point of being silly)


Firstly, the donate button.

As I understand it, the idea is unworkable on the grounds of something to do with blondes shareholders.
Would it make a difference if things were structured so that none of the money from the donate button went to blonde directly and instead it went straight to the updaters.
The updaters wouldn't be employees of blonde, and would recieve only their expenses.

I think they'd get a decent amount from the doante button to make a decent wage, especially if people reading knew the money was going straight into the pocket of those hardworking and talented guys.
I guess they'd be like American waiters, working for tips.



Secondly, on the subject of expenses, would it help the cause at all if people who lived in the locale of a given tournament were prepared to put a roof over the heads of the updaters for a night or two instead of them running up hotel bills? At least while times are tight.

This might be a very naiive plan, but for the sake of keeping the hardest working journalists in buisness, I'd certainly be prepared to sort something out (that may even include a hearty breakfast and lifts to and from the casino) if ever the updaters were to venture to one of the GUKPT thingys in Aberdeen.

[maccol]

Ref accomodating updaters.
This crossed my mind as well.We have a nationwide group of members ,many of whom ,I am sure,would be happy to provide lodgings for the updating team.It would just come down to how the individual updaters felt about such an arrangement.

[Geo the Sarge]

Thanks Geo, & I'm impressed with that mickle & muckle malarky. Is that Kidz speak?

Apologies if you think we have ignored your, & other, offers of help. I'm way behind with my PM's (you were not wrong there!).

Rich, who runs the business, is always open to offers. I'm gonna leave this one to him. That's what we pay him for. Oops, I just remembered, we don't.....

except to say......

Charging for Updates? A great idea, but I do not think it would work. It only wants one person to C & P an Update Post, & everyone who has paid gets cheesed off, & so they should. We have looked at it, & I can't see how it would work.

Voluntary donations, from the "Community"?

A lovely thought, but blonde is a Ltd Company, & has Shareholders, many of whom would sell at the drop of a hat. I can't quite find the right words, but Shareholders benefitting from donations seems wrong.

I need to think on your thoughtful Post Geo, & I'm all a bit brain-frazzled right now, what with this & that.  Let me cogitate for a while. But thank you.

PS - You coming to Edinburgh on Saturday? I'll be at the Gala Maybury - it'd be grand to see you.

Getting closer to that "muckle" sir.

Will see you at lunchtime.

Geo

Sorry to hear the forum is struggling. I saw a post suggesting a newsletter. I agree you need to market more. You could ask everyone who wants to support the forum to play in a tournament you set up once a month and play some cash at the same time. By asking people to play for one or two hours you can see what support you have and generate some cash for Blonde. You could see what this generates and could make it a regular event. I am a fan of the forum and will make my first deposit on Blonde this weekend.

I think the newsletter is a great idea but there is an IT issue on this - and again it comes down to cost I believe. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Keep an eye on the boards for threads started by Kev - these list all the comps for Blonde - and hopefully soon we'll be hearing about some satt leagues for the bigger comps that you might like to play like DTD and WSOP.

Good luck at the tables this weekend - remember there is help on the hand analysis board for all levels of player as well as the bad beat threads.......   lets hope you can post on the ship it thread!!

I've never understood this reasoning. It costs nothing to send out an email newsletter and how can it be an "IT issue"?
