I do not think we can expect anything else about the hypers, just like the turbos, hypersats and whatnot, and just pray the megarape will be decreased in 2013 and otherwise sincerely think if you want to put in another million vpps with the rakeraping like is going as of this moment.
I think we have a bigger shot in things like chaning the structure, and stuff like that because stars can see a direct result in their bottom line from this,
my vote is more 9man hypers and change the nonturbo structure to something else, Im sure if it was a little faster more turbo guys would be playing a part of their turbo volume on nonturbos...
Honestly like I said before, it has to come with the 2013 megachanges hopefully. If you lower rake nothing changes for them. So why are they gonna lower rake? I'm not trying to be rude but what infact is your suggestion?
Also the idea that "'1% roi is considered good' is a joke" is bad. 1% is $180/hr. Who in 2012 makes $180/hr ? So would you somehow prefer players to be winning at 2%? What does that even mean, so they are going to win $240/hr? Where does this money come from (in 2012 where there is a lot of competition and 4 or 5 regs to every 1 or 2 fish at each table.) Stars doesnt decide the roi through rake, the market does through competition.
I agree with your post in the sense of broad rb and rake changes for 2013. But just asking for a rake cut isn't going to do anything because right now PS has no real reason to lower the rake without any rework of the VIP club (nothing in it for them)
