Keep pushing forward guys, I'll send a couple promos your way.
Any reflinks, or rewards for bringing in players?
No
Maybe should consider incentivising promos in some way; another example would be chips for delegation in order to boost bandwidth and upvote lucksacks related posts.
Maybe add a share tourney/game/hand results feature on steem and upvote those similar to DrugWars.
Just a couple suggestions
The first suggestion is unfortunately not something allowed by law when concerning poker in our jurisdiction and many others.
We share tourney game and hand results on our blog @spl and our website for the past 2 years.
Thanks!
There's laws against steem delegation in return for free chips tokens? News to me. If so, maybe registering online in another jurisdiction would suit. The Caribbean and some Central American countries are quite open to online gambling sites.
You sharing tourney results is far less likely to create a buzz than individual players sharing the same (or similar) results on their own channels, Steemit and other platforms. More likely to create a viral marketing effect, much like the other STEEM games.
Surely there's a way to utilize SP and reward players for sharing the platform.
Affiliate/referral systems have proven their marketing worth in the crypto space. Can be the difference between another 2yrs of scanty tables or a sudden boost of players.

Anything that can be deemed "of value" (by anyone willing to sue) that is transferred for tokens on a site associated with gambling (especially in cryptocurrency) is a recipe for a court date.
Players from our site have been doing this for 2 years. Unique content creation by individual humans is far better than auto-generated spam posts that serve little to no purpose outside MLM techniques, which we despise.
We just like playing poker. We're not into creating viral marketing or MLM so people can spam links all over blockchains to reward themselves and make the entire site less appealing for everyone else.
The site markets itself organically and when the price booms more people play. The price is the marketing and when price is down, people leave town or join the latest MLM game and watch them leave a few months later for the next chain. But, we'll still be here! =)
For MLM people, sure. That's not us. Not our style. We generally ban anyone posting affiliate links in our chat, ask some Bitconnect people on here (if they're still around). ;)
Well considering we hit server limits when SBD/STEEM are m00n without doing any of that and we've been around for 2 years and are the longest running Steem game ... I think we're doing just fine. =)
Thanks for the input!
hey donald! thanks so much for your constant support. :) hope you and yours are well! xo, b.
Have you seen the percentage of DApps that are gambling based? Clearly your fear or lack of risk tolerance is hding you back here. I'd find a chart but this is common knowledge.
"Far better" , "We despise"... those are opinions not facts. Fact is if done right— it works. The burden is on you to not make it spammy. Furthermore if they have been doing it for years, streamlining the process wouldn't hurt.
Not sure where to start here, but NO-ONE MENTIONED MLM, nor did anyone mention levels (witch is required for an MLM).
Your view seems narrow and borderline negative. I guess Partiko is an MLM as well— or are you using the Brave Browser, how about ? All of which deploy affiliate programs. Come to think of it most Smart Media Tokens on steem are rewarded for spreading the word.
I guess Partiko will be shutting it's doors soon based on this logic 🙄
Oh wait you said game? If your speaking of DrugWars maybe check recent news: ppl can now log in with Facebook there. We'll see what happens I guess.
There goes that MLM mention again, and now Bitconnect. Smh. When will you confront an affiliate program or reflimk system that is not a shady/scam type MLM? Like Coinbase, Binance, KuCoin, SteemNinja etc...
They are positive. It seems you give a negative connotation to the term MLM itself. That's just sad. ( Avon and herbalife )
Thanks for the response, as a Google Certified Marketing professional with over 20yrs of experience marketing online in multiple jurisdictions— I think your doing a terrible job and have no clue what the difference between an affiliate program and an MLM.
But that's just my opinion.
Have a day.
I'm doing great, thanks for asking... whenever I get a chance I'll play a tourney or two, just wish there were more players and more ppl actually knew about this.
Actually in the middle of a game at Seastar.... #1 BnB in Negril, Jamaica ranked by TripAdvisor.
Anyway, we play twice a week and sometimes more based on guest request. @spl we love poker too 😉
I find them both unattractive and unnecessary and consider them to be at the same level of undesirability for my own personal taste. I'm not sure what is so hard for you to grasp, outside ... you'd do it differently.
Go for it! Doing something is far better than whining about how others are doing what they're doing. Your personal gains appear to be the motive behind your entire comment.
This is why I bring up MLM and the people who promote that mentality. I don't like it, I can't say it enough. I don't like affiliate links, I don't like MLM or the people who spam blockchains with it all day long for many projects.
We're different. I know right! It's crazy to do things differently than every one else, but it's likely why we're still here and 90% of the others aren't.
You seem to be under the impression that we're here to get YOLO rich off everyone on Steem and you appear to now be trying to claim that you have all the answers for us ... when in fact ... we don't give a shit ... because ... we're not here to get YOLO rich off everyone on Steem ... nor to make you spare change by spamming links to our site. =)
Get it yet?
Thanks again for your input!
Hours later ...
You sound like ... me now! =)
See you at the tables!
(That everyone can play free on all day while being assured that we do our best to keep sockpuppets at bay ... by not using referral links! The same reason Steemit didn't use them.).
Partiko, eSteem, SteemNinja... All use reflinks for onboarding on to steem. Oh I believe you were talking about Steemit the DApp and not STEEM the blockchain. 🙄
Keep displaying your lack of professionalism by using the Lucksacks main account for badgering.
Sad.
If you want to continue with your pessimistic views and negative marketing assumptions, use a personal account bud.
Anyway— I do not 'sound' like you, never will. Nice attempt at condescending.
I accept reality (I'm a STOIC), and change with my perception at will.
Like I said,
Have a day!
I never said I have all the answers, your the type of ignorance that cannot take suggestions or constructive criticism without calling someone a "know-it-all".
You want and end? Stop using your Lucksacks account for immature badgering and BS.
Stop assuming people's motives because that's a clear reflection of self.
So anyone who suggest ramping up your marketing or adding refs is in it for personal gain? That's comical.
CHECK MY POSTS, 5/10 ALREADY LINK TO LUCKSACKS. 10/10 STEEM GAME RELATED POSTS HAVE A LUCKSACKS LINK.... ALREADY FOR OVER A YEAR...
No personal gain, ask @bethalea, I've been dropping Lucksacks links for some time now. Why not screenshot those posts?
Finally, grow the fuck up. It's obvious now why the game will never be successful (to me); terrible leadership who knows nothing about modern incentivised marketing.
It's one thing to not like something, it's another to despise people for not agreeing with you.
You literally just swayed someone that was doing free marketing for you for the past 6mos or so 🤔
That's my final suggestions.
Obviously you're doing a terrible job at it. =)
You should calm down and come play poker and win free money instead of handing it to others that just leave the chain for another chain. Also stop trying to tell everyone how to do their job. I don't come into your place of business and tell you how to do your job, so gtfo out of my office and come play poker.

We're a spam free community and would appreciate it if you refrain from spamming our comments section. Thank you for your cooperation!
We have a guy who says he's been doing marketing for us for like 6 months, but it appears he's doing a terrible job at it considering his lack of results, which you point out here.
But hey, at least our reviews are better than that place you spammed in our comments section!
