Couple of points on...points!

[SBR_John]

Coming up on the first year anniversary. We will continue to tweak the program. In June SBR gave out 406,000 points.

Next month we will start the "SBR Pro" program. Basically fund an account at any forum sponsor and get double the points for posting and all contests. If you already have a funded account at a forum sponsor(listed at the top), you're in already!

More details will come out next month but basically we are going to reward guys who have a funded account at a sponsor. If you don't have an account at a sponsor you can still rock on as always. But if you do you will get special contests only for SBR Pros, double daily points and double points on all contest prizes and a wholee lot more!

To summarize we are getting away from giving a point for a sub forum post and 1,000 post milestones, ect. We plan instead on shifting the focus to greatly reward those posters who are doing business with a forum sponsor.

I think we need to make sure there are no more points for sex scandals anymore.

[ProfaneReality]

another move to take points away in the meantime.

[tltaylor89]

I want my double points today

[saints7011]

very good news , I'm already with several of the sponsors here , but they should see more traffic once this is in affect...

[pavyracer]

Good idea. The ones who win should get freebies. Not the ones who eat pizzas.

[Wrigley]

I like it let reward the posters more who actually send money to the books!

Good plan John

[Extra Innings]

Dozer and crew .... smart move.

reminds me of the 50000 dollars I had to spend on my Gold card to get a 500 gas card.

Can you define a funded account? Does funded mean a new deposit is required?If we already have money in the book will this be sufficient?
Will the sports group families be included? (I.e. if 5dimes is a sponsor do their sister book Sportbet count towards the promotion?)
Is there a time limit on receiving double points? I.e. If you make a deposit how long will you get double point etc.
Will this also mean SBR store prices will be rising to take into account the influx of points?
Also, Does our account have to be tagged to SBR as an affiliate account to be eligible?

Fishhead keep your hands off her

Where are you golfing at???

I'm definetly playing the Boulder City layout on my vacation.

What is your handicap these days Walker?

I've been away from the game awhile, my goal will simply be to play bogey golf on my Vegas/Boulder City tour stop.

Which books are the "forum sponsors." The ones that have ads at the top of the page? If so, the ads aren't visible to the large # of forum participants who use adblock software.

So what?

You can find a list of the books easily.

[rthoughton]

I definitely need to start the blog game.

Good questions. Let's wait for the plan then all will be revealed. Prices in the store are already creeping up but that is more a function of store costs like adding another store employee and overhead, ect and also what books offer for free plays, ect.

Absolutely!!

With this new rule in place, I may quit my night job.

[playersonly69]

My question is this. Will the prices for certain giftcards and other things rise when you start giving out more points? It would nice to know a few days in advance at least.


I am not worried about the funnded accounts thing since i am funded at 4 of your books anyway

[Augustus]

Thanks a lot SBR!
