[QUOTE=lightingtool]  
Does somebody want to shoot me an invite? My email is my user name at [yahoo.com](http://yahoo.com). Oh, and if nobody remembers the results, does that mean I’m not last anymore?

Didn’t think so.  
[/QUOTE]

Me too, por favor. My email is in my profile.

I’m having a problem registering for the site. The software seems to think that the ‘p’ in my last name is a number and it won’t let me continue. Anyone else run into this?

I just sent invites to **lightingtool** , **Only Mostly Dead** , and **Lamar Mundane**. Just FYI, I nearly dismissed my invite as spam because it came from “[unknown@yahoo.com](mailto:unknown@yahoo.com)” with the subject line “poker invitation.” Keep an eye out. 🙂

[QUOTE=Gangster Octopus]  
I’ll refer some people, but the bonus needs to be earned so it isn’t great. Oslo, I don’t think anyone remembers the results.  
[/QUOTE]

This is probably just a drug flashback from the '60s, but I think I won that sucker.

Disclaimer: I was in elementary school in the '60s.

Disclaimer/Disclaimer: no way I actually won this quarter. Is there?

OK Oslo, I just sent you an email.

Do I wait on an invite before I sign up, or sign up and wait for an invite?

I haven’t signed up yet. But I will, sounds fine to me.

Never got it, but they say I need $50 to get a bonus. I think I only have like $33 in my Neteller, so I’m not gonna make the bonus.

Oslo, what’s your alias? I’m hung at the referral screen until I get a referring alias.

The alias is the name that shows up on screen so choose wisely. I am SYNW, I resisted the urge to create yet a fourth alias to confuse everyone.

I missed all the excitement last week. I have an account at Pokertropolis (obviously) but wasn’t online when it went toes-to-the-moon and haven’t received any notification or anything from them.

I wonder what happened to them. I noticed there weren’t many players in the ring games lately. Maybe the guaranteed prize pools for some of the tournaments finally caught up with them.

I’ll try to be in this week. Could do with an invite to the new site. Address is in my profile.

I thought it went through in post #207?

Anyway, I’m funded and set up, even registered in the game. Should be good to go.

The pay structure of this is so much better. For only $.50 more a week you have the chance to win several dollars. Still pretty low limits, but the highest payout at PT was less than $1/week.
