McCready, Souquet, Diliberto LIVE Now

Ring game?

...The live PPV will begin Sunday, September 18 with a Ring Game, organized by US Open promoter Barry Behrman. Six former US Open Champions will play "Ring 10-Ball". At this time, three former champions have confirmed participation; they are Corey Deuel, Efren Reyes, and Rodney Morris. The field of six is limited to former US Open Champions only...

Is this ring game going to happen?
 
Is anyone getting anything? I get a clip that says the program is not available. If this is 15 bucks down the toilet I'm not gonna be too happy.
 
I logged on 3 or 4 hours ago when the first thread was made saying it was live. I got on no problem and watched a couple old timers sitting in chairs near the tables chatting about the events and the really nice event programs. They said the draw was comming up. I turned it off to watch a movie.

Now I get the same "program not available" message everyone else is getting. I dont mind too much since the pool does not actually start till tomorrow but if a ring game was on the books then that would be cool to watch.
 
I am still getting nothing except the jet passing by message that "the program you are trying to view is unavailable, please try again later". :(

Hopfully they will work out the bugs. For the price if I see one match I will be happy but if they could really perfet this thing I would be happy to pay$100. for the week to see a bunch of matches. It is really in their interest to get it right so they don't have to give it away so cheap. They need a good product.
 
I've read through most of these posts and answered many emails in the last hour. Thanks for your patience.

Needless to say, the the Ring Game did not transpire. We were informed late this afternoon that the "Ring Game" was not possible due to a lack of player interest, which is true. The players are here to compete in the tournament and unless there's a guaranteed pay day, it's tough to get them to participate. All very understandable.

As someone stated earlier, this is how last year's event started off. However, the Player's Mtg was broadcast live for two hours and started at 7 pm ET as promoted. The Ring Game always just a possiblilty.

Danny Diliberto and Carmine Sardo provided commentary before and after Barry Behrman's meeting with the players. Keith McCready and Ralf Souquet also provide very entertaining conversation. This will all be available as an archive program before 12 pm Monday.

We appreciate for your participation in this effort to create a more dynamic experience for pool, but we need more than just "pool" to make it dynamic. We need personalities, profiles, story lines, events, club locations and everything else that make "pool" special. All this take time, staff and resources. We're getting there.

We're confident that you will enjoy this week of 9-Ball online. By this time next Sunday, if you spend the $14.95 it will be more than worth it. But more importantly, your charitable donation will help the ongoing crisis in the southern US.

Thanks again for watching.
 
So, to those of you that have subscribed to this in the past, is it worth it? I know it's only $15 but if it's a headache to get it to work or a bad picture, I'm not sure that I want to do it. Ah hell, I know I'm going to anyway but I just wanted some feedback on what to expect. Thanks in advance, John.
 
Hmmm, I'm getting that same thing when I hit play, Stream OS, program not available. When is this going to change?

I am guessing now that we wont see the archived footage until tomorrow at 12pm as per mentioned and that as of now since nothing is going on it is all turned off for the night. Other then when a live match is going or until they put that footage in the archived section we will have dead air.

Tomorrow first thing we should have some good matches to watch.

One thing I hope, are we going to see one of the matches for each draw time available? Or will there be some feature table matches that are not broadcast? There should be a good 3 match times per a day at least I would think and it would be sweet to see a match on each of the times possible.
