Title: Online Forum Challenge
Post by: Ginger on June 27, 2006, 10:27:47 AM
I've just received an email from another forum (WPC) sending me details for the online forum challenge, It sounds like it could be a great laugh! But I was wondering if Blonde had not heard of this, or had decided not to enter?

Title: Re: Online Forum Challenge
Post by: Claw75 on June 27, 2006, 10:33:19 AM
I think we should definitely enter!


Title: Re: Online Forum Challenge
Post by: thetank on June 27, 2006, 10:36:58 AM
I sent Heid the address around a week ago asking if blonde could get on board.

$4,500 freeroll for the peeps.

We'd kick royal ass and blonde would get a little linkage.

Can't see the downside.

Yes, we discussed this a week or two ago, & we decided to enter.

Wow this sounds cool, was involved with something very similar a few years back representing talkingpoker forums (managed to win the thing!) but there were too many argument's after though with people accusing other forums of colluding with other players! :) I see a blonde invasion..



Title: Re: Online Forum Challenge
Post by: AndrewT on June 27, 2006, 11:40:42 AM
It would have to be some invasion - there are already three forums with over 100 people registered.

Perhaps we could the honorary title of "blondbasher" to the blonde who knocks the most other blondes out.

After we win the thing, we can use that to combat any ugly bitter claims of collusion. :)

We were working towards a BPL tie up to this and getting as many blonde entrants as possible, hence our silence while we worked things out. Whilst we still may organise something, by all means register away.....


Title: Re: Online Forum Challenge
Post by: Graham C on June 27, 2006, 12:09:52 PM
We can't register yet as you have to choose a  forum to register too - Blonde isn't on there yet.


Title: Re: Online Forum Challenge
Post by: Acidmouse on June 27, 2006, 12:09:57 PM
Manually enter "BlondePoker" as our forum?


Title: Re: Online Forum Challenge
Post by: Claw75 on June 27, 2006, 12:51:16 PM
Manually enter "BlondePoker" as our forum?

That should work - I'll give it a bash.  Presumably after one person has done that we'll appear on the drop down list

Thank you for pre-registering for the following Online Forum Challenge event:
OFC Grand Opening Freeroll sponsored by PokerStars and OFC

We have received your request to add a forum that you added manually in your pre-registration info.
Please be patient. Your forum will be added to the list as soon as it has been validated by the OFC Staff.
`
Once this is done, PokerStars will need to verify the account information you just pre-registered with.
As long as they can match your submission with a valid account on PokerStars,
you will be eligible to register for this event.
See you on Saturday, July 8, 2006, 3:00 PM EST.

Thanks again, and good luck to you and your favorite forum!

Title: Re: Online Forum Challenge

I've sent the organisers an email and hopefully they can sort it out, if not I'll get in touch with Stars.

Oi you! stop being a trouble maker!

If Blonde had been on the list, I would of put them as my forum..... they weren't, so I didn't!

AND I didn't admit to anything!!! Hush up monkey, or it's money fingers for dinner tonight.  ;D

Fair enough - i'll be quiet.  :-X

One quick word of advice - dont ever put monkey brains on the menu, being a male monkey its been a good few years since it was last used so whether it is still there or not i'm not sure.......

I know that multitasking is something that is very difficult for us males (apparently its a genetic thing) but i think watching tv and playing poker is well within most peoples scope!!  :D

Though i think you missed 3 zero's off your odds there ;)

If Scotland make it to the World Cup final, it would take a very big freeroll indeed to keep me from the pub.

Yep, I'm a P4Cer as well... difficult decision (one I didn't really want to have to make), but in all fairness I wouldn't even be on this forum without P4C.

So - good luck to all... but I will be trying to take down as many Blondeites as possible!   :D 8)

To enter this, you needed to have registered on the OFC website before the 5th July. They tell Stars, who credit your account with an entry ticket.

You can still register - but you have to click on the link to the site in Ginger's first post. By registering on their website they will give you a ticket into the event so that when you click on the tournament lobby in pokerstars and try and register for the tournament you can check the "1 ticket" box and you will be registered.

www.onlineforumchallenge.com

Nakor and Nun - did you both get the emails from OFC confirming your registration?  Best thing would probably be to reply to that.  If you didn't get it, email address is register@onlineforumchallenge.com


Title: Re: Online Forum Challenge
Post by: The_nun on July 09, 2006, 07:22:00 PM
Got an email from them on 29/06 confirming reg.. but said poker stars needed to confirm... so responded to it have have just received a reply. As follows''''

After looking through the database, it appears that you only pre-registered for the freeroll and not the buy-in.

Please note the part d. of the terms and conditions posted on the sign up page of OFC...

"d. Each OFC event you wish to play requires sererate pre-registrations. This method gives players the option to represent different forums, should they wish to. "

Sorry, but PokerStars has decided that they will not be accepting any more new registrations or user name changes. Hope to see you in future OFC events.

Wolf - OFC Admin

Shame i dont think i even played the freeroll , forgot all about it and this reminds me i MUST in future read into terms etc... did not read it correctly obviouly .. my mistake so GLA..
