I agree with this. Well said. This was a test. Some of wanted to be part of this test hoping for a replacement for matchbook as soon as possible. The chances of finishing in the top 3 were pretty remote and I think most went into this to help Ganch with this venture which, if successful, will benefit us all for a long time. I hope for most of us the prizes were secondary -- or way below secondary. Whining about prizes for a positive balance after 1.5 days is lame. Some of us laid back planning to go "all in" late. Standings at this point mean little. How many early chip leaders in these poker tourneys finish in the top 3? some do. Some don't.

Fishhead, I'm very surprised that a free play means that much to you. ( I know - you're a grinder)

For those of you that have the same insight a hhsilver please email us and we will get you involved in future betas. We may turn our attention to focus groups in the future and scrap plans for continued beta contests with SBR. It's our goal to build a great exchange and we would like to do it with your knowledge and input.

I'm new to the whole market style I was just curious why some games like kus and uconn are at pick? Is there two different options one for spread and one for ml?

Fishhead · 03-10-11, 11:14 AM

Good liquidity on a few games.

Too many games missing. No SEC or ACC tourney games. Games from the Pac 10 missing. Totals missing. Why so limited and few game options?

Feedback.
PRO: I like the flexibility of the design. The idea that you can really personalize a page by moving things around (and save settings) is very attractive. If you could set up 10 or 20 games for a day, remove everything else, and just monitor those, wow...

CON: Too many clicks are required. It slows things down.

SUGGESTIONS: I mentioned this before, but a GTC feature was extremely useful at Tradesports, and a major oversight at Matchbook, in my opinion.

QUESTION: Will exchange player funds be kept separate from other operating accounts?

GENERAL: It would be nice to have greater transparency than was offered by Matchbook. A weekly or monthly newsletter perhaps? Not so much promotional, but about the runnings of the operation.

Other questions........

Later, will there be other pointspreads offered on games instead of just one number?

Is there a way to tell how much cumlative action one has on a certain game.......risk and to win?

donkdown · 03-10-11, 01:31 PM

lol wtf is going on none f the games r there??/ all at pks what kind of bs is this

Dark Horse · 03-10-11, 01:35 PM

You should also be able to see more than 3-deep. And it would be great if users could have a setting that filters out those 1 dollar offers that clog everything up.

horja1 · 03-10-11, 01:38 PM

not much to do ... low liquidity atm ...

Fishhead · 03-10-11, 01:42 PM

Would love to see 3-way soccer lines with YES/NO.......similar to Matchbook

need faster grading so i can put more play money down

secretstash · 03-10-11, 02:33 PM

I just won uconn huge!!!! But bet isn't graded. This must speed up obviously by final release..one bet a day wont cut it

secretstash · 03-10-11, 02:35 PM

In the future release ..please allow us to set our own lines..not just odds. ....for example a st.johns -3.5(+145) type line

jwbama23 · 03-10-11, 02:41 PM

Why does every game seem to be a pk?

Deuce · 03-10-11, 02:45 PM

That just means you need to treat them like money lines.

Everybody betting on the same line is much better for liquidity than everybody setting their own line.

By design.

Recall that the open order figure displayed on the header refers to a net quantity representing (for
particular market) the worst possible outcome.

secretstash · 03-10-11, 04:59 PM

Yea but they aren't updateing lines ..nd should be -2.5. Instead we got -1.5 and people putting up horrid juice.. just saying the software should allow market makers to settle a line.

mugsey15 · 03-10-11, 05:15 PM

Thanks for updating and putting both line and ml up on some games.

Dark Horse · 03-10-11, 05:37 PM

Is there any way to turn off the front page ticker, from my side?

Dark Horse · 03-10-11, 06:08 PM

Just to be clear, a GTC feature doesn't have to be activated by the player. The standard time for the offer to be taken off the board would be kickoff time. But if a player wanted, he could enter his own time. This would also mean that all games would be open to live action.

This place will be known as the exmex. Like the ring.

Currently, all orders are autocanceled within a minute or two of tip-off. Shortly thereafter the markets are then reopened for in-game trading.

An additional user defined auto cancel option is a great idea and is planned enhanced scheduled to appear in one of the next two or three releases.

Actually the system added ND-2.5 to the board about an hour ago ... if you still don;t see it you might just need to refresh.
