Default Re: Party vs skins - a rationale discussion

And another thought...

Smart poker players will realize that fish are more valuable than RB, so they will all move to Party. So, the skins will be easier.

I think what Party is thinking is that the skins primarily operate based upon RB from strong players. The strong players will realize that since Party spends the money to attract the fish, the fish will be on Party and the everyone will end up moving back to Party. The skins die, and Party will happily ever after.

Not happy about this, but it IS what I would do if I was Party.

The only reason the skins exist today is because of RB, not because of any advertising they do. The skins evolved into a parasite and now the host (Party) is trying to kill them.

What do you think the percentage of the players on the skins didn't originally come from Party?

Of course, I hope I'm wrong.
