Hey, just don't blame the messenger!
I think Party is pretty darn busy this month buying InterTops and PokerNow, haggling with Empire, and cutting ties with Eurobet.
But I really thought they would offer a reload to coordinate with the Thanksgiving weekend. If this is all they're offering, I'll be disappointed.

I got 20% up to $100. I just put fooking $600 into pokerroom last night and dropped over $50. I'm just gonna withdraw and do the party one. Sucks! pokerroom takes too long to clear at 25NL. Wish I didn't drop $50 right away, but whatever. Free and easy money.

Ok...not that it matters. But I wondered how long this might actually take me to earn 30 bucks. I figure if it's fast, then hell, whynot.
First I looked back at October and see that I earned just 130 party-points clearing last month's $100 bonus. WHAAA!! They want 450 points for $30?!
Then I looked back at September when I managed to clear FOUR distinct Party bonuses. This month actually showed ~450 party-points.
But I check the T&C anyway...Find:
Quote:
2) Deposits: You will also earn Party Points on each deposit you make as per the table below. The Party Points will be credited into your account after a period of 7 days of the deposit date provided there is no redeem in these 7 days.
Deposit Amount...........Party Points Earned
< than $100 .................0
$100 - $249 .................150
$250 - $499 .................375
$500 and above ..........1000
|
Which would appear to say that you can depoit $500, wait 7 days, and collect my $30!!
And yet I know I deposited (roughly) $400, $150, $350, and $675 for my 4 September bonuses. Something seriously does not add up.
Part of me is irritated that they can't make this straightforward, and the rest of me knows that a $30 bonus isn't even worth the effort to email support.

Deposit points are given as bonus points. Their bonuses require you to obtain regular points to release them.

Cocco, Boon:
Holding the goods for yourself, I see. Any chance you might post such bonuses next time you hear of one...or PM me if you want to be selective.
I'd do the same for you.

I understood that you got it late too, Boon.

Add me to the list of the disenfranchised:

From November 18, 2005 until December 2, 2005, just earn 270 regular Party Points and we'll give you 20 USD.
Not enough? OK, we'll go one step further. Earn 560 regular Party Points during the same period and we'll give you 40 USD.
|
OK -- Looked it up -- 5 RH at any No Limit table = 1 Regular Party Point. So for $40, I should play 2800RH's - what's that? 70x bonus? 
|
|
I'm a know-it-all.
No, really.

I hear ya! Im a member of the uncool as well. To claim my huge 20$ all I have to do is get 240 player points. 1pp = 20 raked hands. 1200 raked hands for 20$. Or OR since they are feeling generious if I play 2400 raked hands I get 40$. I think not. I hope this is not a sign of things to come. If so we lose.

Last month I got the crappy bonus, play x points we will give you x dollars. But this time I got the 25% up to $100 7x in 7 days. So maybe its just a random thing.
