10 StrategyPoints Extra per Day
To allow you to earn more StrategyPoints and motivate you to play daily, we decided that we will extend this promotion until further notice. Also, the status system will soon undergo some slight changes.
The facts:
- every day you earn at least 1 StrategyPoint, we credit you another 10 Bonus Points
- these bonus points fully count towards your member status
- these bonus points do not count for the Top250 promotion, Tell-A-Friend or other monetary incentives
With this promotiom, you will be able to earn up to 300 extra StrategyPoints per month - making it extremely easy to reach Silver status and helping a lot with reaching the Gold status.
Sneak peek: upcoming changes in the status system
Soon, we will improve the system in which you get access to a higher status with earning StrategyPoints.With the new system, your earn StrategyPoints on a calendar month basis. You get promoted as soon as you earn enough StrategyPoints in a calendar month - and keep that status until the end of the following month.
At the beginning of a new month, you keep your last month's status and start anew with gathering your StrategyPoints for the month after.
Example: you earn 800 StrategyPoints by the 15th of a month. You will not only be directly promoted to Gold status, but you will also keep this rank for the full folllowing calendar month.
The new system will be way easier, as the relevant periods are calendar months and not moving 28 day periods. You will know exactly how many StrategyPoints you need to gather by the end of the month to earn a higher status for the full next month.
Another upside is that you have 30 or 31 days to earn the required StrategyPoints, instead of the 28 days our system was based on previously. Add the extra 10 StrategyPoints per day and you will reach at least the same status with the same effort as before.
The new system will replace the old system within the following months.

You seem to change the Points System quite often. I think this new way is good and is similar to how Pokersites work with VIP rewards. Please make this change and don't change it again!#42

pobe27mo, 14 Jun 11 21:56
DO you get the 10 bonus points on the same day that you earn SP, I definitely got some new SP today from yesterday's play but no bonus points yet? I need silver level, desperate to study more articles. Basic strategy seems to simple to win with.#51
