I wanted to try to write a petition Stars to extend the Hand-for-Hand play to around 5 players out from the money bubble. People start stalling around the money bubble when it gets to be around 10 away from the money and it sucks. Persons who are trying to win the tournament see less hands around this time and the tournament clock ticks away driving up the blinds. The really shitty part is that the person(s) who is(are) stalling so they can make back what amounts to be their buy-in for the tournament usually exit the tournament after the bubble bursts.
I don't know if I wrote this petition right so if somebody wants to add to it so people could cosign, I'd appreciate it.

This is an awful idea. The hand for hand would take WAAAY longer than the stalling, therefore driving the blinds up seeing even LESS hands than dealing with a staller or two.

Yeah people would still stall h4h, but cashing is a lot more important than most people on this site give it credit for imo.

Yeah, I guess it would. It just sucks when people stall 30 sec. every time the cards are dealt.

Not only would h4h for each of the extra 4 hands take longer than otherwise, but the low to low-middle stack people who like to stall would start stalling a few hands sooner than they already do to continue to get the effect they want out of their stalling.

Would be nicer if they just removed the time bank when its 10 away from bubble (or reduce it to 10 seconds). I don't necesarily mind seeing stallers, it usually means you can identify more easily the scared players, on the other hand sometimes its tilting.
