Partypoker reduce tickets paid in Freerolls?

I notice Party have reduced the number of tickets paid in the hourly freerolls today (it was typically 44..55).

Only 35 paid now.


Have they done this before, is it another example of penny pinching??
Is it because they are pushing the Micro Series Main and ticket value starts at 22c rather than the 11c (Sunday Party Feeder) offered previously

They have done sort of thing before, I do not think it penny pinching but as you say they are pushing the Micro Series. They did this sort of thing a month or so ago with their Millions Series and early this year with an other series they were pushing.
