How 2 make Friendlypoker THE place to be?

[Tania]

Hey guys!

As you all know I've decided to organise a lot more things on Friendlypoker.

Some ideas:

• A friendlypoker weekly tourney with leaderboard (buy in 10cts if that is possible, otherwise it will be 1,10dollar). I was also thinking about making it a bountyhunter tourney...

• A freeroll at the end of each month with 50 dollar prizepool.

• Some sort of a contest each month (f.e. design a FP logo, make a cool tshirt print, make a pokersong,...)

• I could try to make a Friendlypoker videoblog a week (about the fun stuff that happened in here, the most popular posts, updates, ...). I will need your help with this as well so...

• I will try to post one pokertip clip a week as well. If anyone feels like working together on this...
  

Okidoki so these were my ideas so far. What do you think about it? If you have any ideas, please post them in here! If they are doable I'll try to work with them :)

This is our community so let's make it rock!

grtz,

Tania

The tourney suggestions seem awesome! It would surely help to bring the community closer to eachother, as long as it doesn't get hi-jacked by russians!

[Tolga A.]

The first idea is not bad.

But I know something better: Get Chiren/Athene back and let him make videos "Athene Style". Then people won't leave this site at all. :D
Or (weekly) livestreams like he did while grinding for Supernova Elite.
Not that you are not fun or the other guys/girls here but he is something like a god. Period.

Well like I said on the chat if you made the tourneys public as planned and you create tourneys with a nice Guaranteed Prizepool or even Added money to the prizepool you'll get many entrants.
Those many entrants will look at the description of the tourney, if you say just a little about a leaderboard and the awesome first prize or the extra money you'll get if you bust-a-bounty. Even though to be a participant to any of the extra features. Like the leaderboard of Bust-a-pro, you should be registered on FriendlyP and added to the list of contestants where we can keep track of the amount of people who will be playing, and the leaderboard.
You could make prizes like first 10 (depends on the field) finishers in the leaderboard get $100 or the first place finisher of the leaderboard gets to pick any tourney (or pre-picked) to join wether it's live or online.

Or if we get really big fields let leaderboard finishers top 100 receive a ticket for the FriendlyP Tourney of Champions.

Just a few ideas which will prolly only be read by some but still it only took me 2 minutes to come up with it.

PS:

Do not make like extra amount of freerolls because you'll only get "noobs" or people who'll just register for the password, I mean it adds up to the popularity but you won't get that many active FriendlyP users.
Maybe if you made them like you had to do something to qualify for it (except being a member) it will get more people and as active. I mean it's perfect for getting new members but I've experienced that freerolls do not get that many active users.

PPS: Maybe Deposit Bonusses or Rake-back bonusses ? I mean I think Chiren or you Tania can easily qualify for that since you have a poker-website-community-thing

The leader board is awsome. But like other people said, binging some athene back is gonna be the best way of making this THE site to be.
It would be cool if the number one can play $200 HU against Chiren80. or just unregister and recieve $100.
That's what I think will be cool, Good luck ! :)

I still feel like doing freerolls isn't gonna make the community bigger but just the ninja's looking for 'easy' cash.

The leaderboard thing is still one of my favourite things so maybe ommos can assist you in making that.

Contests are always good. Maybe contest to make stuff that can be used for merchandising?

FriendlyP update clips were the wins of the week or losses of the week of FP players will be highlighted?

just my view on them :)

Some sort of training system, but it tends to get really complex real fast so i dont know how to tackle that.

"A friendlypoker weekly tourney with leaderboard (buy in 10cts if that is possible, otherwise it will be 1,10dollar). I was also thinking about making it a bountyhunter tourney..."
This would be great, especially if we can get some of the regulars to be bounties :) good fun for members.
Leaderboards a fun community event.

" * I will try to post one pokertip clip a week as well. If anyone feels like working together on this..."
This is the kind of thing that keep giving back to the community for a long time :) I think a good mix of linked tips, and original tips is best for this.

i love the tourney ideas

Like everybody said, bring back ATHENE! Or at least give us an update. One Athene update every 5 months is not enough!
