Wow, I can’t believe I missed a whole month without posting here.
In fairness, we were away in holiday for half of the month.
Obviously it’s great to go on holiday but there is always the dilemma about how to keep in touch with our players while we are away.
When we had a lot fewer players we would leave the automated vacation response on the email and then hope that nothing major would go wrong while we were away.
However, now we have a much bigger player pool we need to make the effort to keep in touch as much as possible without spoiling our well needed break from poker.
Unfortunately, staying online is not easy when you are on a ship in the Atlantic Ocean!
When there was internet access the charges were extortionate and the connection speed was not what you would call ‘fast’.
It was not unusual for us to take 10 mins just to open an email, read the contents and write a simple 2 line reply and send it.
Fortunately nothing much happened during the holiday and we are fortunate to have some very patient and understanding players too.
At least by answering some of the emails and filtering out the junk and spam, there were not 350 mails waiting when we finally returned.
We’ve been back 6 days now and probably just about caught up.
I think I need a holiday…………….
