I'm in!!! Followed the link for the rakeback, created my account, signed up for the Forum Challenge.

Highly unlikely I'll play Sunday the 15th, but I'll be there Saturday the 14th.

Don't forget, you have to be registered for the Challenge by Wednesday the 11th. Let's go people!!! Freeroll time!!! :thumbsup:

Yeah, with everybody telling me that it takes like 2 weeks to get set up in ePassporte, I know I won't be playing in the Sunday event.

I'm playing a freeroll on Cake now to get used to the software. I recommend doing that.

The most glaring thing I can see is that they seem to be set on Pacific time and I don't see any way of changing it. That means that all the times in the tournament lobby are messed up. It's 3:37 here at the moment. It's showing tournaments that start at 5pm, which I'm pretty sure will start at 8pm my time (eastern). For the ones that will start within 3 hours it seems like the system doesn't know what to do and says that they start in 0 minutes. For the freeroll that I joined and busted out of quickly getting my queens busted by 67o who called my all in with a gutshot, we're going to see a lot of that, It says that the tourney has been running for 3 hours and 20 minutes even though it's only been running for 20 minutes.

In fact, once a tourney has entered that 3 hour window where the display will read "0 minutes" there is no way I can actually tell what time the tourney will start. The "0 minutes" replaces the start time both in the main lobby and in the tourney lobby window. I can see no other place where the tourney start time is listed.

The only other thing that annoyed me was that there is no audio cue signaling your turn at the table.

Other than that, I think the software is ok.

In order to get the start times of the tournaments I have to set the clock on my PC back 3 hours. Then the lobby screens update. Kinda sucks cuz then the official lobby time also goes back 3 hours, but the tourneys will show the correct starting time (in pacific time). However, both my PC clock and the official time clock on the poker software are wrong.
