Who's interesting in doing a Money Pickem League?

[NC Uppercut]

And if you are could you take my survey below.

How much would you be willing to pay as an entry fee to play?

What percentage of players or how many players would you like to see payed out at the end?

Would you wanna use the exact rules of the current game or would you wanna amend some rules? If you'd wanna make changes what types of changes?

This game would likely have an escrow to hold the entry fees for the duration of the game. Who would you most trust to be the escrow among NSB members or mods?

Do you have any ideas or questions about this idea that maybe helpful or things others are curious about as well?

Panda, I really like the idea!!!!!
I’d mos definitely be willing to hear possible changes in rules, majority rules? I also think between 50 and 100 dollars would be fair, more if the majority wishes. As far as Mod...I think that needs the most attention. I really think you r on to something! Lol

$10 is a reasonable amount everyone can pay for.

I would love it

I’d like for it to be a little more than that. That way it keeps people in line and on their toes! It will actually matter if the stakes are higher. 10$ is lunch money bro. I feel a minimum of 50 at least. Also point is, not everybody should play. We need to keep it up.... 50 people’s $ at 50$ is $2500. Wouldn’t that be nice

$50 sounds good

Top 3 or 5

Same rules, less multipliers

I don't trust any of you mfers, but i go with whomever most people agree on

Nope

Im ok up to $100 but how many people could actually commit to that amount?

$20,$50,$100 sounds all good but we need at least 50 players.

I could invest the money in a mutual fund averaging 27.50% in escrow until the final payout. I take 75% of the profits as a management fee and the rest goes to BS admin for a complimentary business relationship "benefit". Sound good?

50 seems super high to me, but if that many people were in that'd be amazing.

I'm seeing Bob saying there was over 600 people in the 2017 version of the game & it looks like there were only ~60 people who played in half the events or more if I'm counting right.

Between a expected money angle conversion rate from the free game & the commitment angle to playing this for 12 months I'd guess 20-25 would be max capacity. And half of that (10-13) is a reasonable expectation when its do or die time.

And randomly for the entry fee would it be crazy to have tiers to accommodate max bankrolls?

So for example everyone is in the same game, but like in poker where you can have side pots when bigger stacks & smaller stacks collide there'd be multiple buy in levels to the game.

Like for example lets say we got 10 players. And we have a $10 entry fee level, a $20 entry fee level & a $50 entry fee level. All 10 guys are in the $10 level ($100 prize), 5 guys are in the $20 level ($50 prize) & 2 guys are in the $50 level ($60 prize). From there depending on how the payouts work those 10, 5 & 2 guys are competing for the prizes in each specific entry fee level.

Idk if I explained that as clearly as I could have, but just spitballing ideas since it seems like we are pretty evenly split between guys who wanna dabble & guys who wanna go harder with the entry fee.

I followed you there.... let’s get a core group that is serious and form some “bylaws”. Then we can proceed, yes indeed
