This may be true as far as cash games go. However, per OPR, mtt players have steadily trended upward in 2015 from ~16,800 that I noted earlier in year, to ~18,200 as of today. Just sayin...

This stat means very little.. providing how many play per day would be much more relevant.. who cares if 1400 new players joined while 3000 quit playing? One can simply look at the lowered guarantees, canceled tournaments, and huge overlays to see that they are entering a world of pain unless they start paying people. Just sayin...

I'm only explaining why it may be that Merge isn't being tracked on pokerscout any more. I know nothing about the tournament numbers. In a twitch stream, WPN's CEO showed the page from pokerscout that put WPN in second place and Merge in 3rd place. Immediately after that Merge stopped getting tracked by pokerscout. I'm just saying that maybe Merge sees Pokerscout as bad publicity or is pissed off about the numbers that Pokerscout is posting and perhaps decided to not let themselves be tracked.

Touche.

Understood.

Remember, only some sites actually provide their numbers to pokerscout, of the top 10 sites, only iPoker, PartyPoker, Winamax, and the 3 PokerStars in segregated markets self report. PokerStars.com, 888poker, Bodog, and Full Tilt do not report their numbers to pokerscout.

For the sites that do not self-report, pokerscout must find a way to track the number of players using software, and that is the way it is with Merge, so the fact that pokerscout is not tracking Merge currently is the fault of pokerscout, not some sinister plot by Merge. It seems like recently when Merge updates their software it breaks pokerscout's ability to track their player numbers.

I'm perfectly aware that PokerScout can get the numbers anyway; Bodog has been trying to block PokerScout for years with no luck. But if a site has been allowing them to get the numbers then suddenly blocks that access, it might take awhile for PokerScout to use a different technique. A few months ago, WPN stopped letting PokerScout report its numbers when they were unhappy with their standing. When they did that, Pokerscout wasn't able to gather their numbers either for at least a couple of weeks.

But Merge was never self-reported.

Sites obviously have some sort of control about what things get out there considering that WPN was able to block their own stats from appearing on sharkscope until recently. How they go about blocking these types of things, I don't know. But I do know that Merge certainly has more than 0 players playing on their cash games.

Skrill to Skrill transfers are instant. Most deposit options to Skrill are instant, while an international bank wire typically take 2-3 busines days.

If Carbon currently has no money on their Skrill account, they simply have to send money from their bank account(where the player funds are stored) to their Skrill account, which typically take 2-3 business days and then send the money instantly to the customer´s Skrill account.

So, why take Skrill withdrawals 30 and more days, while they could be easy processed within a few business days, if the money is there?

If that would have happened then I guess you can rinse and repeat until you lose on Carbon?

My skrill withdrawal has just taken over 11 days, last month when i withdrew it took i think it took a little under that. Have people really been waiting for 30+ days for skrill withdrawals, dafuq?

Also please merge sort out the table lag it was pretty bad today and yesterday

lol im sure they will get right on that...

I recommend staying away from Carbon until they start delivering cashouts in a timely manner. Please don't deposit any money to this site.

10 weeks now, still no check. I'll be boycotting this OPS series and I suggest u do the same..

I used to look forward to the OPS series but with the way things are going, no thanks.

Check still pending from Feb 23rd. i know there are a few that are a week behind me still waiting as well...good luck all of us...lets hope the rest of February requests get processed soon!

skrill from 7th still pending..

I am on day 28th for skrill withdrawl lol and it is for an affiliate payment. Not even directly from my Carbon account... They changed the payment time from 3-5 days to 15 days and they still can't stick to it...

The lag is unbearable today.

Yes, horrible lag. And it happens regularly. So tilting. How can they not fix this?

lol

If they have money on their bank account, then they can send it to their Skrill account, which will typically take 2-3 business days and Skrill -> Skrill is instant.

apparently they don't have the money in there skrill account....

I don't even want to give them my bankdetails. That seems pretty irrational though.


Would you guys just upload that stuff? The message says temporary, so it might be available again?

It's ridiculous, makes it unplayable :/
