Party has already taken over the other skins that shared their network and hung around on the second platform. Here is a release from Party.

Looks like the deal is closed and all affiliates have been kicked out of the program too. Some affiliates have thousands of players and lose them all without any notice or compensation.

I guess we shall see where this goes from here but for now it looks like the room will stay a part of the WPC Network (the second network created after the breakup).
