Two people are going to have to do a bit of explaining with regards their chosen player ids.  I"m far from amused.


wrt one of them..... totally agree.

wrt the other, I see your point and you"re probably right BUT I am rather hoping it was meant in the right spirits. I actually thought it may have been the real one.... but then they got the chip lead so I knew i was an imposter  ;)


Right banned AND words in Darren"s ear when I visit Northamption soon.... plus a WH ticking off on its way no doubt. 

Typo I hope  ;)


yes a typo - "AceOn5th" took part in the tourney so not guilty guv  ;)

Can or can"t? i.e. are you unhappy that it"s possible or unhappy that it"s impossible? Not sure from what you"ve written.

But it does raise the age old question of us multi APATer households being allowed to register in the same MTT. Anyone tried it?

Pete has registered for the main event for Cov as the lobby is still open for registration. I have then tried and it tells me that some one has already registered from the ip address and it wont let me register. Solution please.

I would also think it will be immpossible to play in same MTT.

There is always ways around this... I used some free IP proxy software over in the States a few years back to enable Betfair usage. Im guessing that one of you could do something similar to spoof a different UK IP address whilst playing.

Not suggesting you go out and buy one, but do you by chance own a dongle too for when you go away? If so, then this could provide an alternative IP address

The initial feedback is that it isn"t possible to have two entries from the same IP address.  I agree that it is a very restrictive procedure and I"m on your side in this.  My contact has gone back to see if there are any other options, but it may well be worth investigating some of the other suggestions that the guys have made.

FFS  - all of a sudden I"m delighted by this new "different sponsor for every event" concept!

Dongle no - don"t need one so would be a surcharge to play
Spoofing the IP absolutely not.
We are on BT so might be able to pick up a BT FON signal, but last time I checked it was pretty weak.

But thanks for the heads up.

Re-boot your ADSL modem/router... when it re-connects it will have different public IP address.

But if it stops two people playing from the same IP address, then that"s a good thing IMHO.
