Paused Tournies?

Playing a tournament on Party and it has been paused for 15+ minutes now, and about half the other mtts are paused. Any ideas why only some would be paused?? I haven't been doing mtts lately and I don't really remember this being a problem before.

After waiting for about 45 mins I decided to just go to sleep (it was a $5 tourney and I was a low stack), I figured they would have to cancel it after having it paused for so long. However, when I woke up this morning it would appear as though they did finish it and based on when it finished I think it was paused for 2-3 hours. Does anyone else think this is a little unfair? I ended up cashing and getting a higher place than I was expecting, but it seems crazy to pause a tournament for 2-3 hours and expect people to wait for that.

It's Party. That's the only explanation I have.

This is the reason I don't play there.

Yeah I was in a $77 NL tourney with 12 people left when this happened. We were paused for like an hour and then unbelieavably it restarted. 2 people didn't bother waiting and went to sleep, I imagine they're not going to be happy when they find out.
