Marathon Feedback

In the last 2 months we've run an 8 game marathon and a 24 game marathon.
With the exception of the server issues, please let us know what you like and dislike about them.

The greatest benefit I see is the large prizepools and added leaderboard prizes.

Let us know your thoughts so that we may make the next one even better.

I really enjoyed the mini marathon best the 24 hour one was brutal. Also maybe we could have one that is just buyins. Starting with the first four games at a $2-$3 buyin and the the other four at $5 buyin.

I love all these marathons, especially the 24 hour, they are great !!! I agree with Yellow Roses about JUST having buyins, but I think the cost should be a mix of buyins ranging anywhere from $2-$10.

As far as password delivery ideas, how about paying for the passwords, a flat rate for all. This extra cash could be added to the prize pool or we could come up with special prizes like bubble position, last place or most point finishes.

This may not be the best way, but it is a way.

I don't think I can handle 48 hours bud, as much as I'd like to do it, It's almost impossible to organize.

I'll say probably $2.50 games at Full Tilt and Cake Poker with $50 added as we all know some members can't play $5.50 for some bankroll management reasons

We can add some games for $2.50, but we'll also have $5.50 and $11 games. The point is to have bigger prizepools. A couple of top 3 finishes and you have yourself a very nice bankroll.
