Already decided this. Most people here will be able to get it as soon as they want it, but the noobs are going to have to wait.

I hate when people sit out. You nvr see people doing that in real tournaments. You should lose if u sit out for more than 10 minutes. Anyone agree?

I dunno, live I wouldnt mind so much because your hand can be immediately mucked and chips taken. Its not that big of an issue. If someone like drama queen hellmuth wants to be late...whatever, hopefully ill have 1 or 2 of his blinds.

Yeah. What he said. I'll "reward" Quality over Quantity any day. See Exhibit A: Kurn vs. BrianSwa.

some of the poker sites are starting to boot people after 10min if u havent played a hand in the freeroll. i like that idea but i have been 11min late 1 time and didnt get to play and was kinda upset but all well, i knew the rules and shoulda been on time. it makes for a better freeroll when u are playing at a table where every1 is playing instead of 3 or 4 people out of 9 or 10 are playing. i hope more sites change the rules on the sitters in freerolls in the future. now as for buy-in tourneys, if u want to pay and sit out thats fine by me. more money in the prize pool for me!!

Ouch, i feel you. That really stinks that you got there 1 minute late!!!! But it kind of is ur fault u were late in the first place. But, I still hate people sitting out because u don't rack up nearly as many chips as regularly. Talk to you later everyone!

I just bolded a few things in the first post in this thread that some people seem to be missing.

I'm not kidding. I'm not expecting long essays, but I'm not an idiot either and I can tell who is posting worthless crap just for the sake of inflating their post count.

Once again, I will be more likely to allow someone who makes 40 quality posts into the freeroll than someone who makes 100 crappy ones.

Don't let this happen to you:

well, one thing that happens when a PW is released and ppl sign up way in advance is-they simply forget to come play!

or another engagement (poker- or non-poker-related) comes up in the interim..etc etc

which is why a PW should always be released as close to gametime as possible, IMHO.
