Before checking on Freckie I popped in PokerStars for hopefully one quick sitter. And I was greated by an interesting registration screen and hundreds of thousands of players reaction to it.
That registration screen is sorted by State. Alabama on top and Wyoming on the bottom. The State column also includes several little known Pacific Island Commonwealths that are US property, Registering, Running, Full and Completed. Now, Completed is about to be abandoned as all the time bank mines were depleted years ago. Partially by overmining before newly planted time trees (which thrive in the dark moist mine atmosphere) but mostly because of Itty and the Gang. For now it's still there.
Basically, there's nothing running. I registered for a 7-2 single draw low game and quicker than registering for Scientology courses and auditing my entry fee was gone with no benefit in return. Based on the way the new tables were filled instantly, even muti-table games, these people who are obviously not computer programs are jonesing so bad for a game they just keep registering and registering without realizing that they are just spinning the slot machine wheels and getting no traction. This has been going on for a while.
What should happen is when you're on the play money sit and go tab you should receive a friendly message that they are down, apologize for the inconvenience and offer to comp your free money room.
But PokerStars and their crack team of IT experts (them and K-9 from Doctor Who) haven't figured out how yet.
I checked my cashier screen before registering. If my registration fee is returned then Batman will not have to respond to the Title in this fashion - "The pernicious poker peddlers are robbin' you Robin, old chum."
