Lou,
Sorry..but I too am still getting conflicting information regarding this transaction. Looks like the original deal offered to affiliates by Tradal has been revoked.
Original email:
Dear Affiliate,
We would like to inform you that as part of the agreement made between Empire Online and Party Gaming, we will be getting the activity stats for players who joined Empirepoker.com up until 14th February 2006.
These stats will be available on your Tradal account to see and will be updated daily as per usual.
This means that you will be paid for your players’ activity as before and will be able to track their performances on a daily basis.
Payouts will be done as usual, along with your standard traffic fees.
*Please note that this will only include players that registered before 15th Feb, 2006*
We apologize for the uncertainty and inconvenience that has happened in the last couple of weeks, but may we assure you of our commitment to deliver good business and high value into our partnership.
For any question, please contact your affiliate manager or email us at [email protected].
Kind Regards,
The Tradal Team
and the new email….dated April 6, 2006
Dear Affiliate,

To befit from having a great earning potential of our online gaming affiliate network please contact your affiliate manager.

I thought we had a fair settlement for the affiliates but looks like we are back to square one with potentially both parties in this deal.
