I do agree with your one point though, why would Party offer rakeback to everyone? Makes no sense...

For one thing, it would make everyone feel good, even the players who don't know anything about rakeback at this point. If nothing else, Party would benefit from this being spread by word of mouth. Second, they could structure it in a way that the low volume players get a negligible percentage, but something nonetheless. The high volume players would get a higher percentage. Third, and most importantly, once they notice, a lot of players would have the incentive to start playing more hands because of this, which would generate more rake for Party.

Crikey, this is what I suggested that PokerStars do about 3 months ago.
If party does it and succeeds, someone should hire me as an analyst.

This is GENIUS. It seems so easy but they should do it!! They have market share of the online poker community right now. They have 40-50K people on there site at any given time and another (at last report) about 750k (active/inactive) accounts. A mass e-mail promotion might bring out some of the inactive accounts and bring ALL of the players from the other skins back to Party. Party wins and makes ALL THE MONEY. Party would be making a huge mistake to not be presenting this option tomorrow as their answer to rakeback.
