Such a good idea mate!
I think it's worth to think about
People would love IMO to use their points, to take place in tournament, because much of them don't have as much points to cashout, so they'll appreciate
We may also think about other possibilities, such as : tournaments where You can win tickets to other MTT, or real small cash prizes.
What about homegames on pokerstars, does the bankrollmob society of homegames exist yet ?

More home games are always a great idea, although the only way we could buy in and get paid in mob points is if the admin gives or takes them away from the account's. Setting up the tournaments would be easy enough without needing money to register.
Would be nice to know what other members views on this would be. An interesting idea though.

Let me think.
What is the point, to pay pokerroom a big rake , when We have forums like this, which can create such homegames, and then register players with playmoney.
I mean exactly the situation, when You are playing playmoney tournament, but firstly you pay some money to forum owners, and then players get paid.

That ides has surfaced in the past, but cant remember if it was ever considered as an option for the future from BRM. Like the poker site from BRM I believe they are pretty much occupied at the moment, so i doubt such a move will come any time soon.

aye you are right Mober and iirc admin didn't want to deal with all the hassle of switching points around.

Freerolls and leaderboards should be played with MopPoints instead of the current freerolls where passwords are leaked; buy-ins could include a MobPoints rake too, so BRM would win.
