Hero opted out of the higher guarantees, http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showpost.php?p=35620439&postcount=3512 maybe merge is re-evaluating some of them.
Which is the root of your issue - you are stressed because you have a large deposit pending and are just looking for reasons to panic.
Sounds ok to me.hope this is just a result of full tilt coming back and not that merge is going down
Big overlays show a sign of weakness in the business model. In any other business if your selling something for a loss, you'd panic. If I were on Merge (which admittedly I'm not) I'd cash out whatever I didn't plan on playing in the next 1-2 weeks. Probably a good rule of thumb for all US poker rooms. Hopefully it's just an anomaly, but better safe than Full Tilted.
why 3rd world DJ?

Not sure at all it is a weakness in the business model, but it is an error in the business execution. These games with late registration, and guarantees, used to be rebuys and add-ons, and they generally all covered the guarantees. Someone set these games up to fail, favoring the players. Hopefully this is not some new norm. Unfortunately, we players are not stupid and realize that if the biz fails, we lose many outs.
Cashouts via merge have been a royal PITA. This is largely due to UIGEA, but Merge could have done other things. The biggest effect FT would have on Merge is to entice players to move out of the US. If I could find a 3rd world , English speaking nation, with warm temps, and great internet, I would retire there in a heartbeat.

Nope, just stay away from Mindanao, stay in Luzon, at our near Manila...80% Catholic, almost no mosquitoes, even while visiting places with lots of standing water. The muslims that hang out around there are harmless.too many radical Muslims and earthquakes and mosquitoes
Slower pace of life....
