My Prodigy with my 154 euro is open, I sent a usa player that was one of the lucky few to still be able to play money games a transfer from USA PLAYER TO USA PLAYER

You can log in to USA Accounts
You CANT Play real money, they blocked those games
You can HURRY and do what ever before they change there mind

I think they want to show others there legit and going to payback

TRANSFERS WORK NOW, hurry up offense I think

Quick Rundown of whats happening with me

1st. I logged on, it worked, but only Pratice games showed up

2nd. I did a transfer usa to usa player from my old locked account from last Friday

3rd. I noticed 7 Real Money Games poped up, announced only

4th, Now a total of 11 Real money Games poped up

5th. I switched to Ring games and Nothing

6th. I switched back to Tourney, now nothing shows up, not even Pratice

In order for games to show, you have to LEAVE on page for 5 or 10 minutes, then they start poping up

The only place I have had time to read any of this new news is here so please forgive me if some if this should already be obvious.


I also can now log in at the client.   I show no games, not even play chips but I do see my balance. 


I have not tried to do anything else so my questions would be....


Is it really only USA to USA transfers that are allowed or can we transfer to our Aussie Super Hero?

How much must be left in the account to successfully do a transfer?   As we all know when it was in USD you could not drop below the $20 mark and still complete the transfer.   Is it now 20 Euro that must be left in the account?


ps: if I am able to move some of my small BR out what will be left for me to bitca about?  Undecided

if you leave open and dont diviate away from the tourney window whats so ever, games will start to show up, IF YOU click on any
others you are back to square, the games will be 6 hours away from registering

I entered a .25 game, I figured now I can check out other stuff, Then it didnt show I was registered in anything, then I was tired and didnt want to wait so I dont know if game woulda poped up but it never put my 25 cents back

Anytime you leave tourney window your back to square 1, game registration will be 6 hours away again

Games do start showing after like 10 to 15 minutes, 1st 3 will show then after another 1/2 hours youll have more and by the time 6 hours pass you will have like 20 games, the gauarantees will show along the way but those pop back off but you can register for the others

Right now I have 3 games up, Im 5 hrs 41 minute to register and 7 hrs 41 minutes to game times

If my game pops up for me to play or dosent, I will post it as soon as game starts

CONNECTION issues I assume is a MAJOR Problem, if your puter blinks I guess your back to square one, and during game I guess were out then, I have no idea until later, I may play for a while and if I feel the games going no where I may just check to see if it pops back after a disconnect

Remember only do this on a big money game until you see if it works

If it does then I can wait until a 20 euro game and go for the gusto

Hmmm,   I have stayed logged in all day not wanting to risk not being able to log back in, lol.

When I left this morning i left the cash tables selected and atleast on my end I can verify in that in the last ~8hrs there have been no cash tables to come up.

I will now change it to touny's and see what happens.


Can anyone tell me how much must be left in the account when doing a transfer?

you can only transfer over 20 euros now, the 20 dollar minimum is gone

Also right now I am registered in Freezeout game #1788447 at Prodigy, I am the only one registered so far, Starts in 1 hour, I am kinda curious if someone outside of USA can see me registered in this game, I dont think it will get the 8 players needed to start but the micro madness is after this and that one may go, its Friday so sooner or later It should go

I will keep you updated

saw this stuff and went to log in, see if I could sneak in a transfer to fletch...

soon as I hit enter to log in I got a pop up of new T&C, and obviously you must hit the "accept" button or you cant go any further, but once you "accept" new Terms&Conditions, you say you agree with the fact that you're no longer allowed to use the site

as the person I talked to in the live help chat told me "As per the new Terms & Conditions introduced by ELG, residents in Malta, France and USA are not allowed to register an account, play or participate in the games and services offered by ELG"

one of those "services offered" by ELG is player to player transfers, and every and any other possible thing you could ever do to retrieve your account funds

my friendly live help persons advice ?  and I quote here:  "Please contact the appropriate authority"  so they obviously aren't even gonna pretend to try and pay players,
afaik, US authorities only seized some payouts/deposits midstream in domestic US banking system and did not seize any of prodigys accounts, so them saying "contact appropriate authority" makes no sense seeing as there is no authority holding our money

I almost declined to "accept" new T&C as I figured it could be some sort of catch 22 bs, but I didn't want to bother with endless e-mails just to most likely get nowhere anyhow, was hoping I could sneak in like Gabe for a quick transfer.... but never really had any illusions about it, just figured it was worth a try


interesting to note, after I "accepted" new T&C, it allowed me to look around my account and all that, first thing I saw was that Prodigy had changed my profile to show me as being in Croatia.... when I saw that, I actually thought for half a second they might be trying to help facilitate transfers or other run-around type cashouts for those that wouldn't think to try changing location, but I guess not  Undecided


pic of my account profile when I logged in, says I'm in Croatia EDIT: and look at last item, it says I'm a "house player" ?

Update not enuff players, money refunded to account

Dang I got 29 euros still in, I think maybe I should send 9 more euros out

these games that arent guarantees dont get enough players

althoug the guarateed wont come up the list, the Guar. satilites do, maybe those will take me into the guar.

Very ,very interesting.
  
  When we were locked out and could only view our accts by logging in through the web page it was set up differently.  
Maybe because I am already logged in through the client it just looks different.   I don't want to log out to find out though.


Anyways check out where I now live.   This was not my doing in the sense I have not tried to change anything...Warm beer anyone? Huh?


You don't suppose they could be doing this hoping we will try to transfer therefore allowing them to say we violated the new TOS and they just take the cash do you?

You are correct Gabe.   This is how my client looks now in the short time that I changed it to show tourny's.   As you can see I do not have any games starting until 0025 on the 18th though.

^^^   @ JBaker


Any of my business how short you are in trying to transfer JB?   Reason being if it is around the ~10 Euro mark I am willing to try and transfer you what you are short if you feel like then trying to empty your account sending it to Fletch.   If it is kinda a 50/50 situation then we are both putting a equal amount up that we might lose.


Your call.

They converted all my money to euros, and now I don't have enough to do a transfer.

 they wouldn't let you transfer anyhow, they knew this was coming, that's why all the US dollar tourneys became Euros buy-ins days before the closure.....they planned whole time to just lock us all out and keep the cash
 might have to turn some over eventually to keep in good standing with Malta gaming control thingy, but there's alot of extra cash to be made on not allowing transfers and holding the money
- interest they can earn in the X months or years till they actually pony up the cash
- all the accounts that will likely become "inactive" and subject to forfeiture under min amount required to process payout accounts
- the bs transfer rates from dollar to euro, then back to dollar to payout
- and all the accounts with under min amount required to process a payout



Dang I got 29 euros still in, I think maybe I should send 9 more euros out

if you can get on and play but not transfer, I'd try and get on with fletch and "lose" that 29 to him in a HU SnG
