Not everyone loves this format as we can clearly see in the thread and from my experience - 2+2 users are far more vocal regarding these games than other groups/forums
These tournaments are however growing in popularity therefore management made the decision to add them to the schedule
I agree and will of course feedback possibly its been overdone a little and we will review and look to adapt the schedule
My impression is different - guarantees of your PKOs are slowly being reduced. For instance, $11 Brawl PKO at 7pm cet had 10k gtd in November, 7.5k few weeks ago and 5k now. In fact, none of your $11 PKOs is bigger than 5k. It is direct consequence of two things:
1.) Too many PKOs cannibalize each other, especially from 5pm to 7pm. Fish become confused and don't know which PKO to choose. PKOs are fish magnets with huge gtd.
2.) Very short LR (less entries and less re-entries) eventually results in smaller fields, smaller gtd and some players will be scared away. I don't see how can short LR with small gtd attract more players than longer LR with bigger gtd.

We increased late reg and took some harsh criticism for it so we reverted
I had impression that criticism was about 3h LR for small stakes and 4h LR for high stakes. Then you reduced LR from 20 lvl to 16 lvl and small stakes players were mostly OK with it. However, instead of keeping it you made further LR reductions as well as speed reductions.

Please also report to your management team that wast majority of micro/lowstakes players in this forum want more variety in game speed (to add deepstacks, regular speeds, hypers) and formats (9 max, 6 max).
