Just a quick update re: late reg.
On Boss late reg. comes into effect if there are more than 7 players registered (or left) in a tournament. If there are 7 or less then there is no late reg.
A quick look at the lobby with tonight"s results, shows just 7 players were registered at the time the tourney started, meaning there would be no late reg. This is correct.
It"s also worth bearing in mind, that if 8 players registered then there would be late reg. However, if at any point the number of players hits 7 (or below) then late reg. ends.

Appreciate that now Matt but this was not made clear before hand so is very frustrating.... I managed to escape from work a bit earlier tonight coz I was keen to play and I could have registered in time had I known this was the case but as there was late reg and I wanted to have something to eat before registering I didnt register in time. If the lobby reflected this Boss stipulation all would have been clear. All it has done though is made the last event pointless with no bearing on league outcome when it seems there was the interest, which could have provided a good climax to the league. As much as I enjoyed taking part it certainly wont encourage me to play in subsequent weeks.

Play them in a different order next week.... How about Heads Up instead of one of the 5 or 7 card...?

No, keep them. If you want to drop something, lose the PLO.
I agree with reversing the order though.
Matt D:
Point taken re: late reg. We have posted the rules on late reg. on (almost) every online event we"ve run. However, for this series the text just says "Late registration is available in these tournaments (as per Boss Network Rules)".
"Boss Networks Rules" state that a minimum number of players are required in order for late reg. to be activated. I agree this could have been worded more clearly on the "Bunch of Fives" rules page.
To slightly complicate matters, Boss seem to have increased the minimum from 7 to 8 players recently, without notifying us. I will get Boss to confirm the late reg. rules, and I"ll post them up in a prominent place on the forum - e.g. a sticky thread - or make sure that all tourneys that have late reg. have this info on the corresponding forum thread, or in the software lobby itself (if there is room), or both.

Also agree... having more popular formats at end would probably keep more people interested.. but part of the fun is playing different games... and HU means a lot of waiting around... PLO Hi/Low confused the hell out of me but at least now I"ve given it a go and will have a better idea next time (although I"m not entirely sure about that)
