[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Weekly drawings in place of the 50K weekly tournies. Structure them like a "showdown tourney" as I had mentioned earlier just to add a little excitement.

Award ALL Supernovas something in these drawings, even if it something very nominal for the ones on the bottom.

[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Here is another idea in regards to these weekly drawings. Why not convert the weekly $ 50,000 into FPPs that are awarded to SNs?

Let's say you have a weekly prize pool of 5 million FPPs that is divided up between all the Novas.

First place could be 700,000 FPPs (enough for a WSOP/PCA package)

Second place could be 350,000 FPPs.

Third place would be 175,000 FPPs and so on....

Everyone would receive a weekly FPP "bonus" through the drawing, maybe at least 1000 FPPs.

[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Have a 5k bonus at the 600k thru 800k VPP levels as pokerboy suggested, in place of the 7500 bonus at 750k VPPs.

[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Come up with some sort of system which makes Elite status possible to lower limit grinders. I know I would play full time to accomplish Elite if it were just somewhat easier. At present, figuring if I can earn .60 VPP per hand, that translates to nearly 3000 hours....

How about a daily VPP bonus based upon a certain number of hours played with a minimum number of hands per hour? (350 per hour?)

4 hours of play would earn a 50 VPP bonus

6 hours would earn 100 VPPs

8 hours would earn 250 VPPs

10 hours would earn 500 VPPs

This might take those 3000 hours needed to accomplish Elite down to around 2500-2600 hours. Instead of 60 hour weeks, it would translate to 50 hour weeks to attain Elite status.

Just throwing alot of **** against the wall to see what sticks...
