Do these stats make sense?

[Graham]

Is it just me or is something not adding up with these stats. Prior to October I had no depositing players on this site. I am finding it very strange that the bonus paid amount is higher than my commission this month. Also, the bonus relative to the revenue seems very different from previous months. Lastly, it seems odd that none of these players seem to carry over month-to-month.

October 2006:
Player Registrations 11
New Depositing Players 4
Real Money Players 4
Deposits 8
Deposits Amount $835.0
Total Revenue $899.71
Bonus Paid $120.0
Affiliate Commission $233.91

November 2006:
Player Registrations 13
New Depositing Players 0
Real Money Players 1
Deposits 1
Deposits Amount $25.0
Total Revenue $6.14
Bonus Paid $0.0
Affiliate Commission $1.84

December 2006:
Player Registrations 15
New Depositing Players 4
Real Money Players 6
Deposits 13
Deposits Amount $829.45
Total Revenue $332.83
Bonus Paid $107.41
Affiliate Commission $67.62

Does anyone think this is odd? Also, what would you do about this. I have emailed the site in question for some more info, so I will wait and see what they reply.

Come on...nobody has any input?

I do not find this odd at all... your players generated more than 3 times in revenue what they were paid in bonuses.

If your bonus paid was more than total revenue I'd start wondering...

The main thing I was looking at was the comparison of Revenue to Bonus. In October it was almost 9:1, but in December it was 3:1... That seemed like a big difference to me.

Yeah, this didn't look too abnormal to me, either. Perhaps you had a couple of higher-stakes players sign up in December and earn a large bonus whereas in October you might have earned mostly on existing ones. Even though it might not be fishy, this is one reason why programs that take bonus fees are bad news. Unfortunately, a few infamous big-name programs still run this way.
