News & Updates

Fix several bugs with the new poker tournaments. We'll be running another freeroll today to see if we can squash anymore bugs. While the freeroll costs nothing to buy-in, you will still win chips, XP and Casino Points for playing.

Dramatically decrease the break rate of items, so you should no longer see waves of broken items on crowded floors anymore.

Multi-table poker tournaments are now here! The previous 'Tournaments' tab is now correctly labelled as 'Sit & Go's' and the new Tournaments tab has future scheduled tournaments. These tournaments can only be setup by the system and must be signed-up for in advance. There's no limit to the number of players, and the prize pool will scale with each new signup. We plan on adding many scheduled tournaments, but to kick things off and weed out any bugs, we are starting off with a freeroll tournament that starts at 1:00PM CDT daily.
