Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this, seemed like the correct place but not too sure.

I'm currently a free member and thinking about getting Premium. However, first off, I'm going to use my gift points to get me a trial month to test it out first. My question is, once my trial month ends, if I have set up tables on turn based mode, will these continue to play until their natural end or be cut off at the end of the month if I was the one to set up the table? Thanks

I was surprised that this info wasn't included in the FAQs on Premium tbh

I am about 90% sure that all premium checks are done only at table creation. These check to make sure the instance of a premium game was created by a premium member, and to remove the multiple players from same IP restriction.

IE, once a table has been created, if the creator is no longer premium the table stays and plays out, so turn-based games will continue.

I'll count on Cunningham's Law to cover the other 10%...

I briefly lost Premium status earlier this year when there was a glitch with my credit card. All of my open TB games continued to run, even though I was the only Premium player in most.

Yes. You can also create a tournament and still manage it after losing premium.

Awesome, thanks all!

I want to try it as well. To play with friends and my boyfriend, if it works well it is a good price

Then try it. Use your gift points.

How do you get gift points ?

If you actually read past the thread title, you would have read that OP would.purchase their own trial month by their own earned gift points. You get thel through the reasons listed in the link above, mostly by playing various games.

No need to be rude , you answered his question as to how gift points are obtained and reading past the thread title does not give this information so not sure why that is relevant.
