    Changes at Bookmaker?
    Sometime in the last week or so Bookmaker began requiring the user to answer annoying "I am not a robot" questions upon every login. Customer service says this is a "security feature". In addition, the default wager presentation is now a "betslip" interface which apparently doesn't show games in rotation order or rotation numbers. There is a button to go back to the "classic" interface but Customer Service says that will be eliminated in the future. When I login at bookmaker.eu I am redirected to be.bookmaker.eu. I don't remember that happening before. Has something changed? I am unimpressed with the changes at bookmaker.

        I hate the new format at Bookmaker. I can still get into their classic interface but there's a delay to get there. Now I have to take an idiot test every time I login, so even longer to access my account. Their rollover calculator is often inaccurate --and always to their advantage. Plus Bookmaker increased rollovers on all their bonuses a few months ago. Not a big fan of them anymore.

          I like the new format. Being a creature of habit, change is not pleasant most times. Hated it at first but it grew on me.

              I'm still waiting for a way to view props for more than one game at a time. I'm guessing that's never going to happen, so I'm not a fan of the new interface.

                Can you not even view more than one league at a time? Man, even DSI's horrible new format allows you to do that....

                    DSI's is great. I love it. I can check out my pending plays while in the middle of making a wager, then close it and continue making my bet. Also, I can choose my favorite sports and they are always at the top. Also, I can make the bet closer to the game going off than before.

                          I'm happy for the extra security. All it is is checking a box, not having to read undecipherable characters, like most captchas.

                            How would that be adding any security? That question aside, don't you also have to click on a bunch of pictures? That's been my experience anyway...

                              All I have to do is check the I'm not a robot box. I think it might be to prevent DOS attacks, but I'm no techie, so I don't know for sure. But the extra step, just to check a box is no biggie. If it gets to be more than that, then I'd be pissed also.

                                    I have to click I'm not a robot box and then pick the squares. Very annoying!

                                    Question, when we click on the street signs do we count the poles as part of the signs? Seems like I fail most of their tests

                                      Just the squares most of each sign is in. Not the post.

                                            So you just click the box and get in? You don't have to take the picture tests?

                                              For me it’s 50/50. I’m not sure why sometimes I can just click I’m not a robot and other times I have to take the dummy test (which I sometimes fail and have to take like 5 times)

                                                50/50 for me too. Not sure why, but its annoying.

                                                  Feds are after them, google spies for the feds, adds google to their login process, makes sense, other books may follow
