Slovenian office/overall update:

Offerwalls additions and improvements

OfferToro has been added to the list of offerwalls - http://paidverts.com/member/offers/offertoro.html

Offerwalls have been added to our Android app. Make sure to check them out both on your web browser AND mobile app, as mobile might offer a huge array of new offers to complete!
For example: AdScendMedia has a great rewarded video option for US users – some members have yesterday alone earned several dollars from repeatedly watching short rewarded videos on the mobile app.

You can download our AndroidApp here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paidverts.mobile

Unfortunately we ran into some complications updating our IoS app, where we will have to remove Date of Birth question on sign-up as they deem it irrelevant. But this sort of registration behavior we will also have to adapt from the new game CoinFlip Evolved, so it will be prepared for the good of two products. So any user coming from CE or IoS app, will be required to fill their date of birth when visiting the cashier. So offerwalls will appear on the IoS app once we can update it.

Offerwall callback handling has also been improved so we can handle various apps/places having offerwalls (PV site, mobile apps, games (coinflip evolved), and other future projects) more easily.

PaidVerts Texas Hold'em Poker Wagering tournaments

A few days ago we hosted our first wagering competition for our Texas hold'em game on PaidVerts!
With a small base reward of 10,000 BAP it spiked up the interest for the game quite a lot. We will be doing the tournaments regularly (at least once a week), and adjust the timings, prize pools to find the combination that suits the most players and gets us the best results.

The frequency and prize pools depend on participation. If you are an avid poker player we invite you to follow the competitions regularly, as that will help raise the awareness and attractiveness of the competitions even further.

Today's competition is on-going, and you still have until midnight server time to bet your way up the top #10 wagerers and claim one of the prizes:
http://paidverts.com/member/games/texas_holdem.html

We are also aware of some bugs and potential improvements players have spotted with the game, and will consider fixing and improving those to ensure we provide you with the best gaming experience possible.


WebMoney direct ad purchases fixed
There was some issue with WebMoney ad purchases, which has been fixed. You should now get no further problems in making purchases with this payment method.

PaidVerts activity optimizations
Two days ago we have started with first set of tests for optimizing PaidVerts sustainability, debt reduction and ways to potentially aid in increasing ad issues for members. This will range from changing the amount of ads sent out, size of them, along with potential other small changes to PaidVerts economy and see how they affect our crowd satisfaction, activity and ultimately BAP debt control.

For this reason we will push on through with final server configuration settings to get the „report tool“ online (which has been on „stand by priority“ due to my & Marc's inability to use it properly due to lack of time the past month). This tool will help us monitor various aspects of the business, and how even small changes might affect our PaidVerts community. Listening to a small portion of members' opinion on forums and tickets (whom most often are not even an active part of the PaidVerts community) is one thing, but seeing effects of changes in raw data is completely another and one we want to make best use of in improving the business.

We are currently discussing various minor changes on PaidVerts that could ultimately have a huge effect. There are tons of potential small changes we could introduce, so we are currently in the process of deciding on the final set to present and start testing.

Winter is coming – and so is sickness
There were a few setbacks the past week in the Slovenian office, as our main programmer and support/marketing manager got sick. So unfortunately a few things got delayed till next week:
- marketing campaign report
- creation of specific plan to market our advertising options to various businesses, affiliates, websites, marketers...

Plans of finishing up Shootout Champs with upgrades, and prepare the code version of coinflip evolved animations early this week were also delayed due to illness. The core build of that game is progressing well, and next week I will be providing a lot of final details to Kamil.

We are also in the process of providing various details to the first rewarded video provider to have everything prepared in-time as optimized as possible by tailoring it to expected audience. On top of securing a reliable rewarded video provider, we will also try to secure a cooperation with Matomy, another popular offerwall provider. They might also allow us to use an option of using rewarded video ads directly from PaidVerts – to earn cash directly. Fingers crossed on all demands being met, as that would be a great addition to our offerwall collection.

On the other hand, the graphics for the idle part of the secret game project ********* are nearing completion and should be real neat, and appeal to most of our target audience. Next week will be revolving around math, stats and graphs as we dig deep into the detailed progression system, which is the core intrigue of any idle game. Although this is often improved on the go after the game launches, we want to make it as appealing and „perfect“ from the start as possible.

Polish office update:


In the last two weeks a new offer wall Offertoro has been added.
This led us to reworking our offer walls architecture to be more modular and easy to expand in the future.
We also added offer walls on Android/iOS PV mobile app.
For a better user experience of our mobile users we added visualcaptcha, so you can accelerate your earnings!??
Currently we are adapting our user's mobile register process to Apple/Google terms of services.

We've added also Texas Holdem Poker Daily competitions. Admins can now easily set up them for the next days in admin panel. Each competition lasts from 00 to 23:59 server time.

Both in-progress and future tournaments are displayed using banners in user area. You can check what prize pool is - guaranteed and progressive (based on percentage share of overall rake taken during tournament).

Past tournaments results are always available to browse on Texas Hold'em page. Players can also check ladder and their current wagering score during the active tournament. Ranks are also shown and updated after each hand in table view below player's avatar.

After competition ends top 10 players are awarded by the percentage of the prize pool in the following way:
1st - 25%
2nd - 20%
3rd - 15%
4th - 10%
5th - 8%
6th - 7%
7th - 6%
8th - 4%
9th - 3%
10th - 2%

--------------------------

We also started working MTV's Project Funding Page. For now, this will be a subpage of MTV with a more modern look. This feature will open MTV on crowd funding market and should attract new investors.

For now architecture of whole feature was designed. We've also prepared user and admin area in MTV's source code and provide base HTML layout was attached.

Currently we're working on:
- new modern login/register popup authorization available on funding pages.
- admin area data manipulation

As most of you know i've been in the middle of moving houses/countries which severely decreased the time I had available for any work related input, luckily I have a great team which temporarily filled in the gaps that I left unfilled.

Right now I've done 90% of the build of my new house and there's not much that will require my time for at least the next week, so i'm back to my crazy work schedule that you're used to!
I'll be personally writing a news topic during the weekend as well.

Exciting things are on their way!

no,

but I have studied and used vitamin supplements for years.

Are you kidding me? Would a doctor recommend vitamins? He'd try to lock you in a hospital grin

Dr. Jill Stein probably would recommend Vitamins b4 Hospital or better yet an even more natural forms of medicine such as adjusting the diet and exercise.

Yes, it starts with the diet. Something else most doctors won't deal with. The more progressive ones are doing it but the older ones still don't see the need. Being older, I notice my health significantly decreases when I stop taking my supplements. Of course, I don't eat very well but I also have a hard time trusting what the corporations put on the store shelves and I can't afford to eat an all organic diet. So I do what I can and usually supplements can have a huge impact

Things are definitely changing and if you live in a warm climate, you can probably eat straight from a farm almost all year around which is definitely better for you assuming they don't use pesticides

The one who makes the most total bets (biggest wagerer) on poker in a given day wins the prize, that's how wagering competitions work. They are the most basic form of competitions and easiest for us to start with.

Even though this type of competition is probably less engaging than some other types, it is helping slowly pick up player base. When that picks up enough and we can also improve some things with the game, we will consider spending more development time on making more complex competitions.

Love the increase in poker activity. This not only generates rake for PV but also encourages people to participate in PV once again. Yesterday the activity climbed to 1 mil bets which used to be a 5day total before. Also it's nice to see that the activity does not end the same minute the tournament ends. There is "left over" activity which means that people that come for the tournament find other reasons to stay.
Yet another idea. How about longer tournaments. Not 24h but maybe 48h or maybe even a week-long? Not sure how good that would work but maybe it is worth testing? For example PokerStars used to have "rake tournaments" or whatever they were called (similar to the tournament we have now). Those tournament were daily, weekly and monthly too (all at the same time).

Good point DraKill,

It means the games are 'sticky' which is what you want your website to be. Draw people in but also keep them here

@DraKill Indeed, various timeframes and even several competitions is something we will definitely think about and test, but for the time being we will stick with the daily ones for a few weeks. We want to first get a good feel of how this picks up, what players like/don't like before we rush into further updates.

Also with our current amount of players, having weekly and monthly competitions could kill the popularity and hype of the daily ones.

Same with extended competitions. Let's give it at least another week or two to see where we are at and go from there.

I would also encourage any players/ideas to go into this forum topic on PV forum dedicated to Poker/tournaments:
http://forum.paidverts.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=136.

And just generally it would be great if everyone would start contributing more in the PaidVerts forum. There is huge value there if we can get an active community rolling smile Help fill up all the categories, do a post here and there, and I am sure we can increase the general activity over there easily!
