Sounds like your gonna get Kifer'd....

I think I used that the right way....

Keep it together @Josh Kifer. I need someone to root for in this tourney.

If not you I’ll probably have to settle for @Hornet.

I think I've been good lately.... No plans on nuking anything with my crap too soon...

Me: Busy, running around trying to plan an event, make sure decor is right, catering is set and arrangements are handled.

@BarrieJ3 : Annoying / pesky rodent that won't go away.

@WedgeRock : Bored kid who's finished homework early and just wants cause mischief, so keeps coaxing the rodent back in the yard.

Well yeah I'm a pesky rodent that won't go away! That's how I scored number one on the quiz!

How else am I going to learn more about your high level connections in Vegas, the actor from Rounders that plays in your game, your source for the birdcages, what it's like being one of the only people in the world with hyperthymesia, the other cars that you own, and all the other cliff hangers sure to be on quiz #2!?!?!?

That's a bit condescending. I'm not sure how my posts in this thread are disruptive, or how they coax @BarrieJ3 to continue to post in the thread, but I certainly don't want to overstay my welcome.

I'll see myself out now.

[TheBigTater]

So just to be sure, @navels you're cool with folks reging for you mavens site to just rail the tourney?

Yes, Lee and I discussed it, and we’re encouraging railing. Also putting together a massive zoom that people can log into.

I heard a woman dragged you into this.

so I guess my long-held out hope of a giraffe sample set isn't happening. I will have to just numb the pain of disappointment by winning 1st place and using that as trade bait for one.

 

[Windwalker]

In case no one noticed, the prizes now include 2 full playable sets, so that the bubble is not as sucky

I’m planning the first Windwalker Bi-Annual Invitational, my invite-only tournament extravaganza for people I have done business with, sold to, bought from, gotten help from, advice from, and other relationship-building activities.

One of the prizes in it will be a nice surprise from the Giraffe arsenal.

No quizzes, just a straight up invitational tournament with prizes.

That sounds exciting... <quickly starts looking for something in @Windwalker league to sell to him>.

Find him a rack of PNY 5’s that he can destroy.

FYI I keep tinkering with the tournament structure and just discovered that each time I do it kicks everyone out who registered (for the tournament, not the site). So I'm going to wait to publish the tournament until Saturday night.

 

[navels]

Looks like all seat winners are registered on the site. Everyone should have a ticket for entry into the tourney. Registration will open up Saturday night.

I'd encourage everyone to practice playing on one of the cash tables (you should have play money chips in your account already) to get a feel for the interface.

Pro-tip: under Options > Table Settings you can customize

• Auto muck on/off (lets you decide between mucking and showing your hand when showdown isn't required)
• Four-color deck
• Custom bet-sizing

Also: some tips for mobile users.

 

[Windwalker]

Some additional Pr0n of the 2nd place prize for the tournament on Sunday. A Sunfly Hybrid tourney set from the historic ACF.

best hybrids ever

I think the Boardwalk blows these away. Of course they don’t have the history that the ACF hybrids do

Surprised it hasn’t happened yet

Surprised it hasn’t happened yet

Aposematism only requires that there be one sacrificial lamb, especially if that lamb is verbose and often seen in public.

Was a solid power move.

I love your profile pic too much

 

[Windwalker]

A few updates.

1. @ovo no longer has to work, and so because he was out only one-outer, I am inclined to let him play. Don't worry, @grantc54 -- your slot is safe as well.

2. If you plan to rail / watch, please register on the site, and make sure to use as close to your PCF name as possible (the site doesn't accept spaces and has a 12 character limit.)

3. The tournament begins at 11am Pacific (2PM EST / 6PM GMT / 5AM +1day Australia) Sunday Oct 25 on the same site. Registration for the tournament (different from registering on the site) will be open at 6PM Pacific Saturday Oct 24. All players in the tournament already have tickets assigned. Once you are logged in, click on the "tournaments" tab. You will see this screen:

Choose "The Windwalker 1000" and this screen will pop up.

If you have a ticket, you will be allowed to register.

4. If you want to watch / rail, once the tournament begins, you will be able to choose "Observe Table" and chat within the group chat system.

5. Here is the structure for the tournament:

Starting Stack: 10000
Levels: 10 minutes
Breaks: 5 minute breaks every 6 levels.

Level	SB/BB/Ante
1	100/100/0
2	100/200/0
3	200/400/0
4	300/600/100
5	400/800/100
6	600/1200/200
7	800/1600/200
8	1000/2000/300
9	1500/3000/400
10	2000/4000/500
11	3000/6000/1000
12	4000/8000/1000
13	6000/12000/2000
14	8000/16000/2000
15	10000/20000/3000
