Password Leak

There has been a major password leak for the freeroll scheduled for December 6th.

There's over 1k people registered so far and the number is increasing very fast.

So I would advise you all to make your posts now if you have not before the password thieves take your spot.

Here are the links I found that shared the password:

Full Tilt Poker - Pokerowned Members $25 Freeroll 06/12 16:00ET

Freeroll Password Poker | Facebook

some freeroll passwords

I don't mean to post links but I have found this to be a pretty cool forum and just want to keep you guys a heads up for whose been leaking the password.

ya ive seen quite a few sites already as well. too much work to link them on my phone tho.

Yup.. Learned and adjusted. We will only release the passwords a couple hours before the event starts. That will help prevent people from getting it in time.

If that doesn't work, we'll release it 15 mins before the scheduled start time.

For those that release the password, all you are doing is increasing the number of players, so what's the purpose?

I have emailed FTP to see if we can unregister everyone except those that are legit, reset the password to something new and go from there.

We'll see what they say :)

wow this sux but always a password thief somewhere.dont make since .i would rather win a dollar instead of a penny.

All fixed :)

We have a new password.

Those of you who were LEGIT players are still entered in the tournament.

The new password will be released 1 hour prior to the tournament starting for new players.

If this isn't enough time, I'll make it 15 mins.

Great job Zabulus.

Even only 15 minutes of registering the password will still be leaked. We might need to restrict the freerolls.

I'll see how bad 1 hour is, then maybe cut it down to 15 mins.

It's hard to restrict it because i'd essentially have to submit the list 1-2 days before. Which is okay, but not as good

We'll see how this one goes

it would be better to make them restricted because someone always shares the pass, and releasing it one hour prior to the tournament it`s going to be leaked

I think this is a great first step. Maybe eventually making it restricted when the prize pools become bigger.

I cant see the poker rooms wanting to do this until the prizes are around 50-100$ each freeroll

Good luck with a freeroll tomorrow..
I work for living, so no Monday afternoon games for me ;) I just registered to see how I can play in any future of your freerolls. Thanks.

Another way would be releasing the pass 3-4 minutes before the tournament begins, that way only the people who are eligible can register and there is not much time left for someone to share it on other sites, i have another forum that releases the pass five minutes before the tournament starts and only 100-150 people whom are members register, but the pokerowned.com tournament has late reg so that is another problem :|

Ah good call blackacecard. I'll start stopping late registration. I'll change the time to 30 mins before start today also.

Releasing the pass a few minutes before start is a good idea ,i don't think ppl have time to post the password elsewhere.

I got it set for 30 mins. Prolly change to 10-15 later

Ive played many freerolls and have found the freerolls that realease the pass with 5 min or less and have no late reg are the best... Just my opinoin

I got wittled down to 20 mins, prolly lower that even more i think you are right

Only 56 players were in today's game. That's a lot better than usual.

Great work.

I think that worked :) We would have had fewer but the late registration had those guys "PW, WHats the PW, PW please" i saw someone give it out.

So with no Late Registration and down to 5 to 10 mins we'll be in good shape next time.

I'll clear out the AP & UB free rolls, change the pw, and do it with the upgrades

I noticed that too. Only about 35 players until late reg started.

I only play at Full Tilt though.

Free money is free money :) Try out AP & UB

Going to add a Cake Network room as well soon

I'll probably download them soon. :)

Releasing the password few minutes before start is a great idea ,i don't think another site have time to post the password elsewhere.

Which is what we do :)

I agree they do share them,But Im not sure why when the win is so small.

Great job Zabulus.

Even only 15 minutes of registering the password will still be leaked. We might need to restrict the freerolls.
