Title: Re: lost connection Post by: reenot on December 01, 2007, 02:01:23 PM Always a good idea to have a backup plan as it only seems to happen when you are deep. Ring a friend to play for you (doesn't help when the whole exchange is down which happened to me Monday night) or dig out your old modem lead with a PAYG dial up connection. 1p a min but it can be the difference between cashing/winning a seat or bubbling.

Mainly due to the fact a back up is often useless as when you log in again to party the software goes loopy reloading the tables, which leads to the tables not loading up or having missing button etc.
I actually quit sng's because of this after losing 100's of dollars in equity for the upteenith time and have started grinding cash, which i think is a positive decision all the way round, cash hardly ever tilits me in the way sngs do. Title: Re: lost connection Post by: MKKfish on December 01, 2007, 05:30:06 PM A couple of times on Party I've had a scenario where I've been playing STTs and cash at the same time only to get disco'ed from the STTs but able to continue playing on the cash table! Confused the feck out of me when it first happened!
I can only assume the prob was at their end and that they must run the cash tables off a different server - anyone know for sure? |
