So yes this happens. |

I explain it in more detail: When PPG (points per game) is calculated, only the points from regular tables are considered. Points from member tourneys are not taken into account. People with members accounts start at 2500 points so they can instantly participate in members tourneys where the buy-in is pretty low (250 to 500) but up to 6 people get paid. Most of the time this means that more than 50% of the people get paid cause the average number of players is almost always under 12. At regular tables, only 1-2 of 5-7 players get + payoffs on higher tables. (It's theoretically possible to get up to 4 people paid [because of dom], but it's very rare.) Moulue is a very diligent player (he participates in members tourneys almost every time) but he is admittedly poor at regular tables (even according to him). So in almost every month he collects points from tourneys and loses some of them at the regular tables, but it's still enough to get podiums. No cheating is involved. |

I cannot list how many top 3 finishes I have seen won by membership tournies. And honestly, if you got to there through membership bonuses your podium finish is a joke.

Also this discussion about member advantages is getting sooooo old. If there weren't any paying members, Ryan would have disbanded the site completely and there would be no KDice left to play. What's more, with the new changes, the discussion is even completely outdated. Way more 2k/5ks are played and we already saw a few +30k +50k daily gains last month. So the so called member advantage has been balanced out again. fyi: last month 3 non-members got top3 |
