Could the 10 min blinds increase be dropped to 5 min, it takes too long for turney to finish with 500 players cca, on pokerstars is twice as fast with 2000+ players.

is that an official BRM answer?
------------ So after two hours of playing the turney around 100 players are left with 14000 chips average and only 300 BB thats 40+ BB for everyone (avg) and its just fold fold fold, waste of time the next 2 hours playing for a small prize. just my opinion.

NO WAY dude...!!! That would RUIN them and put them on par with those BrM tourneys on PokerStars filled with facebook freerollin' cockroaches...
One of things that make the FT ones better, is in fact the longer blinds.... It allows all the idiots to kill each other off leaving plenty of time for us to get past,...and to let them do JUST THAT....!

Man don´t try tp fix what is working fine BRM as this freeroll for ever and everybody wants to play them that´s why they allways have lots players Like DEMODAWGGY says the ones on FullTilt are better because the kamikaze players kill them selfs But man don´t stress out it´s freerolls Try to play your best and enjoy the game

there are less players because FTP has less players, dont see how adjusting structure to not get boring after 2 hours could ruin that, is not like new players will come out of nowhere, would still be same if it would last 1 or 1:30 hour less
------------ or skip lvl 13,15,17,18,20,21,24
------------ Check today when you play what happens: after 2 hours people wait and wait and wait till the blinds start pushing again and that takes around 1+h is just slowing the turney down for no real reason.

Dont expect changes any time soon. The fact that these tournaments have so many entrants, is all they need in BRM. If the tournaments didnt attract any players then they would take another look into it
