It\'s 4pm EST + 8k players on skins. Things looking up for skins?
On Sun afternoon (primetime), it was only 7k players on the skins.
Now it's 4pm EST, and there's 8k players. Going to try to update this w/# of players on at 10pm EST to see if people are coming back at the skins. or if there's 8k players on at 4pm because it's a holiday.

[/ QUOTE ] I saw 13k when I was transfering my buddylist last night. It sucks that you can still add peoples names to the Party client who aren't on the Party server. It would be a lot easier if they fixed that...

There are far less actual players. Yeah, I know it says "8,000 players" in the table lobby, but the number of tables is the true number.

Most (but not all) fish only play at one table. If a fish sits down at Table XYZ, he is sitting down at one of the 1,000 active tables. He is taking up one seat on those tables. If a 2+2 12 tabler is playing on Empire, Eurobet and Multipoker, he sits at 12 of the 1,000 tables, and he takes up 12 seats. In short, the number of tables is a true number. When you see "players" in the lobby, it should actually say "seats being filled".

[/ QUOTE ] okay. thanks. got it. is this not being alittle on the nit-picking side? if im at 8 tables, am i not a player at each table? perhaps they should say "number of different players at tables?"

If it was the true number of actual players, it would look too weird: like "2,748 players at 1,087 tables".

[/ QUOTE ] So when you log onto Party, you are not counted in the number of players until you sit down? There must be 1000's logged in not sitting down. People watching tourn's, waiting or generally not playing as they're busy. They are juicing the number against themselves.
