Good ol' Party

[peterbirks]

Well, would you adam and eve it? Just after Party tells me that my 35,000-odd player points have expired (oh, the shame,! losing something which it's impossible to spend!) I log in to pull out the $500 I foolishly deposited a few weeks ago in an attempt to get a bonus. And Party informs me that I now qualify for a $100 bonus if I deposit before November 25!

These marketing people are fools! Do they assume that people really have no memory whatsoever? That, every time something is offered, it is forgotten a week later?

So, the tactic is clearly to not play the site for a month, or 90 days, or whatever. Wait for your points to expire, and then to log in for your deposit bonus.

People have commented many times on Phil Jopke Hellmuth's feet first typing in chat boxes, but I can now reveal his handwriting. Graphologists eat your heart out. Guess the age of this writer...

I think the 20k points worked out at around $50. I'm not saying you play for them, but if they're just sitting there... Their points system is one of their real fuck ups imo, since it offers so little incentive to play. You've got to admire party's tenacity to go at every angle; I noticed they were offering sats for the 20k points buy in, one of them was a 1k buy-in with a place in the 100k freeroll for every 30 players, a nice 50% rake. But on bonus points! Gee.

As I've said before it makes you wonder what angles they shoot that you can't see.
