For those who don't feel like digging through the chat archives, can you summarize (or link) it here?

Thanks.

what is the SnG madness?
Open up FT, click on it, and read about it.
too long to expain, but i'll try.
Basically full tilt made this promotion, where you play as many SnGs as you can, the ones that are toward the promtion are highligted green, and its only single table SnG's.
so you play, there is 4 levels, $1-2 Sng's $5-$11, $20-$33, $50-$110
basically choose one level and play as many sngs as possible
you get points for finishing in the money
every 4 hours there is a winner from each level
like today it was 16:00 ET to 20:00 ET and now its 20:00ET to 24:00 ET
every level offers different cash prizes and top 7 get awarded cash prizez
level 1 1st is $40 and 2nd-7th get incremetally less
level 2 1st $200 and 2nd-7th get incremetally less
level 3 is 1st is $400 and 2nd-7th get incremetally less
level 4 is 1st is $1000 and 2nd-7th get incremetally less
This will last until Sunday @ 16:00 ET I believe, ...and then the top 4 point-accumulaters from each level can battle it out "4-way shootout" for $5000.

you get raffle tickets for winning a Sng. These raffle tickets are for the raffle they hold after the promotion, in which they give out random prizes.
1st place a Poker Table/Poker Chips/etc.
Lots of them (100) $72 chips as well as 100 $25 chips
random shirts, Baseball Caps, useless Full Tilt Trinkets.
totalling 1081 prizes.

how many SnGs do you think one needs to win to have a decent shot at a prize or two?

I've won 2 so far but I feel that won't be even close unless I get really lucky.

I was trying to compete for Group 1 in the first four hour period yesterday, and was even in second at the way beginning of it after taking down those two SnGs, but like 20 minutes later someone already had like 5x the amount of points as me so I gave up and stopped 6-tabling SnGs. The play in these is pretty bad since a lot of people are playing more than one at once. I think it's pretty easy to take advantage of this if your only playing one or two. I think I may play a few more of these today, not to try to make it on the leaderboard, but just to take advantage of some :donkeyage

you need to 10 table and have a +ROI to have even a shot i think

hc422709 11-03-07 06:01 PM

yeah, there are some really crazy people who 10 table and get like 300 points to win the 1st place prize

suited35 11-10-07 11:28 AM

no chance at winning one of these, unless you pay 10 constantly for 4 hours

hc422709 11-10-07 03:24 PM

Did they ever draw for the FTP hats and shirts?

I want my chance @ those :)

I got 1 raffle ticket :D

I ask because they are not linked to a list of names like the other prizes.
