    stars please come up with a better timebank system. Either reinstate time bank at final table. or come up with a time bank that gets replenished if you dont abuse it. thanks.

    I see nothing wrong with the time bank. personally, i like it a whole lot better than FTP's.
    Just my opinion.

    yeah...whats wrong with the timebank? imo the time bank is long enough...just pay attention to tables and ur time bank won't go down and ull have enough saved when its time for a tough decision on the tables rather than looking what there is to eat in the refrigerator

    Full tilt's timebank is the one that needs work.

    I vote 20 second timebank that refills every hour.

    It's so dumb when you disconnect and your timebank runs out.

    this is the first time i have seen a post about the time bank at stars being bad

    it seems ok to me but i would agree that refilling it at the final table seems reasonable

    like the posts above it seems that it would be better if you didn't lose your time bank when you were disconnected i would much rather my hand was folded

    I also think a replenishing time bank would be a good idea...ITM and FT sound like good times

    Replenish at the FT sounds reasonable. Definitely do NOT replenish at ITM. Don't need to reward the abusers.

    easy solution- have a timebank reset butten, it gives a 60 secs upon replenish- you are allowed 2 replenish timebanks per month. This way it wont be abused.

    making decisions for big money especially @ final tables should not be rushed. I would like to see expanded time banks for ft's possibly even unlimited (or maybe w/ an option of calling time?) if not restarting the time bank for ft is a must

    I like it better than full tilt but I think they should reset everyones at the final table.

    i agree with refresh for the final table. comcast sucks balls and i usually disco and lose the timebank within the first hour.

    Definatly need a countdown when u lose your timebank...not just a 15 second warning, an actual countdown 5.4.3.2.1....so we can see or hear that part

    One thing that would go a long way in fixing the timebank is for it not to be activated or run down at all unless you've VOLUNTARILY put chips into the pot. That way you wouldn't burn off your entire timebank when you meant to fold a 15 chip small blind or someone raised your big blind but you stepped away for a minute. You should have to click your timebank to activate it instead of it kicking in automatically just because you're in the blinds.

    agree but ppl stall like crazy, there should be an option where you get to ask the table if u can take extra time and u need 5 ppl to agree or the game wont continue or u cant take time
