Thank you for your feedback

Thank you for your feedback
As you know we have adjusted quite some things the last couple of days. The game has become bigger, the chat renewed, the Bingo caller added and the ingame roomlist made available.

You have provided us with quite some feedback on all these topics, for which we are very thankful!. We received a lot of positive feedback but there were some valid points raised. The new roomlist and brandnew carousel turned out to be quite a challenge to get through.

We have listened and read to all the comments and decided to rollback our latest update (the one with the new ingame roomlist). This means that the old roomlist will return for the weekend.

In the meantime we're going to work with your feedback to update the carousel and the roomlist to make these much more easier and clearer for everyone. Due to the rollback the sound of the bingo caller will be temporary combined with the game sounds. 

Thank you once again for all the feedback and we wish a happy weekend.

Play bingo now!

to me i would like the roomlist to stay like this in all the games. all the other changes to me is good but the roomlist is better to naviagate. come on gp we play these games everyday. listen to the ones that do play in these games.

Hi SoutherBell,

The roomlist and carousel will be improved over time. I am glad to read that you like the other changes we did!

THANK YOU. Please don't change it again. I am all for change but not all changes take into account that we are not all sitting in front of a computer screen but play on different equipment.

While I found the carousel easy to navigate, I prefer the old room list; in my opinion, the carousel is too flashy and I believe most new (and old) players would find it confusing.

Something else I have been wondering about: What happened to the "free coins every four hours" update? Did GP decide against that after all, or will you guys be bringing it back?
Wouter - 21 October, 2014 9:15 AM
Hi ChrissyCarrano,

The gift will be coming with another update, we did not gave up on the idea :)

I was sooooooooooooo HAPPY to see the old familiar " ROOMLIST " when i started up this morning ...

This " ROOMLIST " page is the simplest ... most user friendly to anyone ...

Your carousel concept was a disaster !!!

As far as " NEW " players being unable to maneuver the current " ROOMLIST " ... Well ... that seems highly unlikely ...

If, someone can't find their way around on a 1 page roomlist " as is "
They're sure as NOT, to find their way on such a complicated carousel concept ...

GP IS a website for games ... " NOT " an Amusement Park ---> ( carousel theme )

PLEASE leave your " carousel concept " in the closet ... It is NOT an update that is beneficial to anyone.

ThankQ, for returning the " ROOMLIST " ... NOW, please leave it " AS IS "

lol
MonaLisaPena -
One more thing ...

I, did learn to maneuver, your carousel

Butt ... It is definetly ... [size= 10.6666669845581px] [/size]" NOT " user friendly ...

As for the " Carousel Theme "

It, was one of the worst rides ... I'd ever been on !!!

I play in bingo fever and like the way the cards change. Please change it back. Also, I lose sound after clicking on 2 or 3 numbers. Please fix.

Bingo Fever ... Cards change ???

How do they change ???
MonaLisaPena -
If you only play in one room ...

Then you don't need a fancy roomlist " card changer "

I play in ALL regions ... Super Bingo OR not ...

The carousel the drop down with regions ... Were in no way, shape or form a positive

The room list the way it currently is seems to be more user friendly then the new version that was recently released. Although, I didn't have an issue manouvering around, I can understand where others would have found it difficult.

A few more changes that maybe you should take into consideration:

- People are logged into rooms for hours on end without playing, taking up a spot that other players could use if they could get into the room. A timer should be added to remove the idle players after a certain length of time to free up the spot in the room. This is very unfair to those that would like to play but can't get in because the room is full. I understand that you'd like for players to pay for a Super VIP membership so that you can make money but at the same time if you idle players out after they've been idle for so long, that could also make more players purchase the Super VIP membership so they can get back in after idling out if the room is full.

- Removing the duplicate cards. It's hard enough to win and get ahead in bingo as things stand right now. Two, three and sometimes four winners on each bingo hardly makes it worth playing anymore.

- I read in previous posts after the changes were made that GamePoint would like for players to stick with their own region. When there are only four English $5.00 rooms, it makes it difficult to stick within your region. So maybe adding some more English rooms should be considered.

Hi ValerieGray4,

Thank you for your feedback!

We take pride in allowing players to choose if they want to play, chat or do both. The idle timer would force players into doing one or the other, which takes away that freedom. Quite a few players have their own favorite room to play in and being kicked out of that room because you were talking in private or not at all isn't something we want.

From time to time we evaluate the bingo rooms and how much there are, I'll take into account that you feel that there aren't enough 5c rooms.

Thank you again for your feedback

Hello Wouter,

Thank you for replying!

You are totally missing my suggestion here. When someone is in a game and actively playing, they have a bingo ball beside their name. When someone is in a game and not playing but possibly private chatting, they have a green icon beside their name. When someone is in a game and not playing or not chatting, they have a yellow icon beside their name. I know this for a fact because I tried it myself. I sat in a room totally inactive until the icon turned yellow. Once it turned yellow, I private messaged a friend and the icon turned green. These are the players that I am referring too. They are neither active in a game or active in chat. I am currently sitting in a room with 99 people, out of those 99, 19 of those people are inactive. If there was an idle timer place in effect, those people would no longer be sitting there taking up the place of people that would like to play.

its not a matter of knowing where everything is which is self explanatory sp obtrusive in the rooms now. but this is the last you will hear from me on this gp, well we can hope. xoxox

Since you have changed to play has become much smaller and harder for me to see the board so with that said i do not play like before...do not like the new way...i will go there time to time to see if you have made adjustments to the size....thanks Shawty
Wouter - 21 October, 2014 9:44 AM
Hi shawty,

We already took care of the size for you, the only thing you have to to is push the fullscreen button on the top right corner of the screen once you are ingame. This will make the bingo game bigger for you.
campbell6 -
yes it is

I cant load the game get a white screen

My comment is not about Bingo or card party or even party dice.
I would really like to know why on earth did you remove darts? I am not sure about many other members but having been a member since 2010 you will notice I have not been on since darts was removed. i loved it and met some very dear friends in the dart rooms. Ones that I have traveled across the United States and actually met. Please put darts back on. Sincerely, Madge Ehret
Wouter - 21 October, 2014 9:46 AM
Hi MadgeEhret,

The reason darts is moved (not removed thankfully) is that although it had a loyal fanbase that includes you, that fanbase simply wasn't big enough. However, we felt that we should give the fanbase a place to play darts and so we moved it to the Playground. You can login with your credentials through:
playground.gamepoint.com

Enjoy!
campbell6 -
Yes I agree MadgeEhret that's when site started going downhill and no offence to anyone personally at gamepoint.
Valerieb7 - 19 October, 2014 4:06 AM
I sure hope while your making all these changes that you figure out away that people CANNOT buy cards in one room then go buy them in another room that is so unfair..y do u allow that? That is cheating and cheating out other players for a chance to win.. im hanging on by threads with only my daily chips to play with and these people are winning 3 or 4 times a day on supers all the time..I personnaly cannot afford to buy chips here i wish i could but i just cant i love playing this bingo my days have been boring since i cant play.. Thanks for listening..Ireally do miss playing bingo all day..Signed dissapointed player..

Leave the rooms list as is, the new list is just fine to find next to our profile. That way we have the best of both worlds, we can have the old way, and the new way. Please don't add anything new to the old lobby!!
campbell6 -
You guys just took the best gamesite on the web and made it one of the worst. It's not even fun anymore. but hey thats just me. not a good move! campbell6
campbell6 -
why would gp change the format of this site? before we could see everything at hand, our friends, the chats, and games, What benifet is there in this new format for anyone?

campbell6
Wouter - 21 October, 2014 10:28 AM
Hi campbell6,

The previous version was a bit outdated and needed a make-over. We understand it will take time to get used to but in time you won't know any better and might actually prefer it. The fullscreen mode and bigger playingfield was a request we heard quite often. Ofcourse the are many other requests and we do our best to implement them all!
campbell6 -
thank you for the nice reply wouter and good luck with that but of course I wont like it better after time because it's not even close to the same format you once had beit current or out dated, the last format was a better one. anyway its cool xxx
campbell6 -
Wow of course you guys don't want all the chatting you want more people playing. ok now i get it.
campbell6 -
let me just say one more thing, you guys were heads above every other game site on the web; and sadly that is not the case anymore so i would have another meeting with the ceo and the designers and whoever else you need to contact and find away to bring back the older design and setup. you guys can tell im sure, and if you do like the
new setup you've talked yourself into it.
SheliaLovett -
Don't kid yourselves people..gp only makes changes that benefit them..they don't give two shakes of a rat's butt what any of us think until it impacts their profits...then they will listen !!!
CindyP27 -
Why havent I recieved my free coins for the last 2 days are you no longer doing it.
LouiseSirois -
You're not the only one.
LouiseSirois -
Just to be fair to everyone, when somebody leave the game the winner should get double. Often they disconnect when they have no chance to win so they should be punish by giving double to the opponent for leaving without finishing. Or if they are sore looser they should not play games at all.
Looooooser !
