Nice! thx for putting these up. Ideal would be a sticky topic with various screenshots where people at a glance could check out the look of a site without having to scroll through posts 
A Note on the Nightly Freerolls
Some players are entering the freerolls but not playing a hand and not being logged in at all while they are running. Given that the freerolls are relatively deep stack (2000 chips) and with a slow 10 minute clock, its is possible to last a long time just sitting out. Indeed some people have cashed while sitting out for the entire tournament. Winnings to date will be honoured, but from today onwards, if a player doesn't participate actively in the freeroll then they will not be eligible for a payout. What constitutes active participation is open to debate but to date players either don't show up at all or else play from the beginning. All games are logged so it's possible to see quickly the level of participation. I will be fair on this.
Regular tournaments are unaffected as once a player has paid the buy in they are entitled to play as they please, but sitting out to cash is against the spirit of freerolls.
Maybe the structure needs to be changed with antes coming in earlier and with a shorter clock, but the idea is to provide a good tournament with plenty of play, and give people a chance to build a bankroll while trying out the software. I'm not sure what the general solution is to this type of activity. Feedback welcome
