Personally I would like to see a semi-regular 'league' setup, but we've been over that before.

There needs to be a bi-monthly $10 buyin tourney with a fucking leaderboard.

Maybe top 10 after X weeks get entered in a "TOC" freeroll.

That's a good idea, we seem to be a fairly stable group here, why restrict ourselves to short-term?

i absolutely agree. and tho im still a newbie here, id most definitely remain a regular and frequent contributor here (as well as suffer thru non-stars sites for all those forum challenge thingies) if a *stars-based* league/pvt tourney series of any sort is formed up here. again, could be freerolls, buyins or combo thereof.

almost all forums/sites are scared off from hosting pvt stuff on stars because:

a) stars is not desperate for business unlike all the new, micro poker joker sites popping up all over the place and giving away freerolls galore

b) theyre too small so they dont have enough 'signup/deposit pull'

c) forum owner(s) cant afford/dont want to spare a few bux to set up a league/series of pvt tourneys, as it 'doesnt pay off' (see a-b above)...i understand. business is business

to each their own. i still think that hosting pvt events on stars is probly the best way to advertise one's forum/site short of buying tv/radio time. but of course it cannot put the forum owner at risk of losing all/most of his overall forum profits

What are these "forum profits" you speak of???

LOL... I know most people don't believe me, but I run this site because I enjoy it. Pretty much all the money I make here goes back into the site one way or another. Long term, sure, it would be nice to make some decent money from this place, but for the time being, I'm happy watching a good poker community grow and getting to throw around some money for fun contests, tourneys, TP gear, etc...

i meant to say that ppl who clamor for 'more, more freerolls!' on pvt forums have to be understanding of the simple fact whether the owner can afford/want to open his wallet for them.

however, since u now said u *can/want to*, i say: more, more freerolls!! hehe!

(and better weekly $25 ones than one monthly $100..IMHO)
