Look at WPN and Merge; you guys both use the same terrible structure and the guarantees are small. Merge has consistently lost tournament players since they changed from normal structures to what you guys do.
Now, let's look at Bovada. No reentries in any tournaments and a more normal registration period. Some is longer the others, but that is ok if it's not a reentry. Bovada crushes there guarantees every single night of the week with a normal structure. Their Sunday $100K guarantee is consistently coming close to DOUBLE the guaranteed amount. No other American facing site can even come close to competing with their tournaments.
You guys are the last hope to give us a real option. You seem very willing to listen to players and make changes so please, at least try this. Sure it may lead to smaller guarantees at first, but once people catch wind of the change I think you'd see huge turn outs considering the promotions you put on and many other benefits. Lots of people dislike anonymous poker but even more don't like playing the unplayable reentry tournaments.
If anything at least make a poll and let the players vote on it.
