1.) Top 100 on DT scoreboard (100)
2.) Top 5 on State Away Scoreboard (25)
3.) Top 5 on Home Scoreboard (5)
4.) Winner of each Regional Scoreboard (50)
5.) WILD CARD promotion for 10 spots (ONLINE)

Thoughts on this one?


I think this format caters for just about every player that supports 888pl in venue and online.
At least players in smaller regions are still able to qualify either online or by placing in state or 1st in region.

This whole thread has been to make the DT leader board more competitive for all states to play...

As far as the changes Garth has suggested they are all fine.
The majority of players on the Gold Coast will be happy with the changes I am sure (although I am probably the only GC player that visits the forum on a regular basis).

But I can tell you this, the fact that Ralph won the DT has seen a HUGE increase in the number of Qld'ers wanting to play online, The rego inquiries we are getting is great, more & more people are getting online and playing.

P & P card sales are up and the changes to the format of the online games will see a lot more players playing online as well as in venues.

All in all I see 888PL going ahead in leaps and bounds, we are very lucky we have a management team that listens to its players and tries very hard to get all the small things right.

Good Job Garth and the rest of your team. :D

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to get as many QLDers on the forum as you can

so now the people who play mainly the away events at 1 or 2 venues, qualify for the state finals and win, get dumped. (which is how all this got started)

They probably won more $$ than the rest.

Also GF, except for those that buy in.

What do you think about this Garth?
