Here is how you do it. I don't see a suggestion there from you about limiting contest sessions. I do see your suggestion of limiting the games to one game family. Which we ended up doing and turned out to be the biggest mistake we've ever made in the contest format. I do see a suggestion from shadowman about limiting contest sessions to a certain number of rounds. Which we also did, in the previous contest format. Note that the thread you are talking about was in 2010 before we had a lot of the features we had today.So I'm still waiting for you to back up your accusation of:

Edog, I love you, but shame on you.   This is a game of chance/luck.   Some people have more than others.   I haven't won a TOC yet, but I still try.   Maybe someday I will win.    Just depends on your luck of the draw.   Play and enjoy yourself.

Webman, PLEASE don't waste your time on this. Instead, implement what I had asked for, namely the options of pink (gals), blue (guys) or black (don't want anybody to know) for your name as it shows in Chat, Forum and contests. It could be an option in your Player Profile.

A limit of 5 sessions for people with names staring with "e" and ending with "dog743" could be a nice feature.

It took me several years to get on top, but seems like I get on board more frequently now. Might be that I play more now because I get the competition I need and it keeps me out of the casinos. Your time will come if you keep playing!
