Default How have Party SNGs changed over the years?

I can't say that I've really noticed anything, but every once in a while I read a post talking about how the dynamics at the various levels have changed. I'm just wondering if people aren't just experienced randomness. Please answer only if you've played more than a year or two.

Edit: Make a small reply if you vote to keep it up on the front page [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Everyone at the $20s sucks just as much as a year ago. I think the $30s may actually be weaker than a year ago.

About every 3 months, someone posts here asking if the Party $XX SnGs have gotten tighter lately. Almost everyone who answers agrees. This has not changed over the years.

To answer this question meaningfully, you would need a large amount of data from each of the last few years. Someone would have had to play at least 1000 sngs in 2002, 2003, 2004, & 2005. If their ROIs have been decreasing for a given buyin over these years, you could begin to draw some conclusion as to how the skill level has increased since then.
Unfortunately, anyone reading this forum who has been playing that long has probably been making money and moving up the levels.

Suggest you check the batteries in your sarcasm detector. It doesn't seem to be working.

since party started offering a $5000 monthly bonus for the top player w/the most snG points, my ROI has gone down.

seems like every pro is now on 24/7 trying to attain that extra $5k.

this is at the $50+5
