This sucks stars is down again,the sites just frozen and fkk all happening for at least half an hour now. Mind you we can still talk in the chat bar I had just took the lead in a $2.20 8 game tourney and was sitting 3rd in a $2.20 horse tourney fucking joke so they are.
------------ The games all started again we played for 10 mins and then it paused..........FFS.

well that's kinda new to me, stars having some technical issues, and not just some, but i guess you can say some major issues. from my experience i can only recall a few times this happened and usually i was just refunded the buy-in, so yeah if you are in the lead in some major tourney then this is a bummer.

They are one of the sites that are giving compensations in situations like that one. So go ahead and right them an email asking for something. A couple of tournaments tickets wont be bad at all

On the first u made quite good ROI but the second one, considering the prize structure, think u could have done better, but then again nothing is for sure mb this was the best outcome, how ever mb the reason why PS was down, is they got hacked if that was the case, like any other corp, they would never admit they have a weak security system

They actually paid out on chip counts.
dam thats good, especially since you were leading, and you didnt have to play it out where its possible to lose

Normally Stars have the best software without any problems in the past, perhaps you´re computer have a little problem in this situation. But i read in the thread before, that the server was down, ok thi can happen. But i hope, this problem was only yesterday.

in todays world of technology I am suprised that we dont have more of this problems,when just one things can ruin everything and collapse system!but yeah,its strange to see such a big site,to be frozen for a long time!
