I'm trying to play on 4 tables at a time (0.10/0.25) to clear my bonus faster, but whenever I log in there, there's very few people on the tables. What's the peak traffic time there ?

BTW, if anybody from Merge reads this, you should try to do something to increase your Ring Game & SNG Traffic ... I don't know, maybe add 0.50+0.10 and 1+0.10 SNG's, like on UltimateBet or iPoker Network. Also I think it'll be good to add SNG's like on Microgaming Network ... with 5 people, where first gets 50%, second 30% and third 20%. Call them beginner tourneys.
On regular tourneys, it'll be also good to make some, let's say also "beginner tourneys" with increased payout structure to more people ...

Damn, I talk too much ... I just hope anybody listens :)

The Merge Network's target customers usually play from Midnight to 4am US EST time and 8am to 12noon. You will find the most action then. On the weekends it is usually pretty steady all day. Make sure you have the options set so you can see full tables.
For sit and goes I suggest playing the satellites. The comp points build much faster and the players are softer.
Since Merge does not actively support Pokertracker the majority of the bonuschasers don't play there which is a good thing. I find the overall quality of play similar to a casino on the weekend.
Until they find a simpler deposit option for USA players (Like EFT checks) the tables will be sparse.

The Yellowstone tables are full most of the day, with waiting lists. I feel things cool down in the evening. For me though, the bight crowd (I am in the US on the east coast) is a lot more profitable then the day crowd.

What really hurts Carbon is the round about way for US deposits. Until they get a simpler processor traffic will stay lite.

I thought the new credit card processor would fix this?

I still have an active Click2Pay account so for Carbon, Full Tilt and my secret site I never have to worry about Credit Cards. The best option I have seen so far are the free Echecks on PokerStars.
