Bobbo,

I'd be interested at $50. Not that I'm too cheap to do $100 (although, coincidentally, I am) but I don't care enough to spend that much. Mostly I'd like a league that features the NBA thread regular contributors like you, kidcolin, Aloysius, tdorko, ClassicBob, zorbie, GKA, westhoff, artdogg, TSC, et al, but a lot of those guys don't seem to be responding to these threads so maybe not.

I figure I'm down close to 1k in fantasy sports, but $50 is nothing so I guess I'm in.

I was thinking about starting a free one for most of the above posters, but I would do this one as well (or both if there are more cheapies like me).

Edit: Also, I would prefer the multiple payouts rather than winner-take-all, because I am poor. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

In...would prefer multiple payouts too as coming in 2nd in this league would be too depressing if it didn't pay out.

You can have multiple buy-in levels if you want.

All you do is put $50 from everyone in the main prize prize pool, and then if there are a bunch that want to do $100, you put the extra $50 into a secondary prize pool with the money going to winner among those people.

I think it would be awesome to have penalties to keep people interested.

For example if there are 20 people at $50:

1. $750
2. $375
3. $150
4. $0
5. $0
6. $0
7. $0
8. $0
9. $0
10.$0
11. -$5
12. -$10
13. -$15
14. -$20
15. -$25
16. -$30
17. -$35
18. -$40
19. -$45
20. -$50


Anyone else like this idea?

LOL @ the guy who is -$5.

It's definitely an interesting idea, but just not my cup of tea.

if we get a few more, i'll make a league and start the invites. it seems more want to go at 50, so we'll set it there. maybe we'll do a winner take all or something, so that first is 1k, which is not shabby.

a few rule proposals:
1. last 2 teams have to pay an additional 50/each. this prevents total tanking from those eliminated *early*
2. do ppl just want basic rules? anyone want to do something sexy like 3 cat league of points assists rebounds? I thought it would be cool.
3. weekly changes obv, but any love for switching to daily for the playoffs?

I want to be in this league, but would like confirmation on whether it's 50 or 100. Also by "20 league", do you mean I'll be in this league for 20 years?
