PokerOwned March Madness upgrade idea

[Zab]

This sounds like alot of fun, I'll definitely play. Since it's a promotion over several days, I think 100 is a good price that most people can afford, 25 is too low. I think the higher one should be worth more, even if it isn't quite 1000. Maybe 250-500. I would always spring 100 points for this, and if I had enough extra points I would occasionally play a higher one.

Another suggestion is to have a bracket that starts so that it covers the weekend since that's when more people seem to play. If it's a 5 day bracket, have it start Wednesday. That way people may be motivated to go ahead and play on wed/thurs for that chance that they will still be in it on the weekend. I think you will be more likely to increase traffic this way instead of catering to the grinders that are already playing all week.

Would you rather see it START on Saturday (Ending on a Thursday) or Start on a Tuesday (Ending on a Sunday)

I will play it whenever it starts, but I'm thinking starting it on Thursday or Friday would work best. That's when players brains start switching into "weekend" mode. They might go ahead and sign up with the intention of putting some in over the weekend if they survive the first day or 2.

I would vote for Monday or Tuesday, but that's just my personal preference. I realize that may not be best for everyone.
