My affiliate program (see sig) is a CCBill affiliate program so I need CCBill to get its' act together here, for the sake of my affiliates if for no other reason. Could I switch to a merchant account or NATS? Sure - then I'd be like all the other programs who are struggling, cheating people, not paying, disappearing....no thanks.

CCBill and Epoch have differant merchant banks and accounts. Therefore, on some days I've noticed that Epoch's ratios suck while CCBill's are good, and vice versa. So I switch the cascade during times like these, and I've learned (wisdom) that when either CCBill or Epoch are pumping through sales like clockwork (as it should be) it doesn't seem to last for more than a day or two before WHAM the conversions tank. So that's when I switch the cascade. It's called "riding the hot hand", so to speak.
So Epoch was doing great - the 'good times' gotta end soon, I figure, based on months of past patterns - so I switch last night.
NEWS: I switched the cascade back to Epoch at 1:03 pm. At 3:40 pm: 4 sales.
CCBill: 12 hours, 10,000+ uniques = 2 sales
Epoch: 2 1/2 hours, 2,000+ uniques = 4 sales.
NOTHING HAS CHANGED EXCEPT THE CASCADE.
Explain.
