There also is no longer a per tourney buyin anymore (in that system) so if $50 overall or $75 overall is reasonable to everyone then just do that and then the prize pool will be split up at the end anyway...

Default yea


I agree with dropping the per torney buy-ins and just having a overall pool to be split with top point winners. The price will be debated on, maybe do another poll later on this week. Still got to do the top 10 out of 15 games to make it fair if you dont make some of them. I will start jotting down the names tonight and get to work on that, im guessing everyone that already said yes is still in since this is actully cheaper then the other way. Are freerolls without any money added hard to set up?

I really like the idea of letting non league players play if we dont have enough players, it lets everyone maybe get involved in this. Maybe run like contests to see if you get entry in the torney that night.

I don't hink we can do a points system if there are other players in it. That really messes with the placing. If you got knocked out in 9th place and three non league players finish in 8th, 7th, 6th and then there are league polayers finishing after that then your points are skewed more than they need to be due to the filler players. Not counting the other players in the lineup of finishers would correct this, BUT it would defeat the purpose of having filler players since there would still only be as many league placings as there are league players.

I think if we go with that then it needs to be top finisher in each event (only league players count) gets entry into a final event.

I will give this some more thought and type up a full proposal for the way this might wiork later (need something to do at work, right?)

Default here is idea


I think we can still use point system but just use league players in it.


say we get event with 9 league players and fill it with 11 no league memebers, we just black out the non-league memebers and award places to the league memebers just like it was only them playing. So say i got 2nd and you got 5 and jimmy got 8. It would be just like me getting 1st (longshot) you gettin 2nd and jimmy getting 3rd. That way we award the points like that.

its idea what do you think?

If you are doung that, why bother allowing the non-mebers in in the first place? Why not just play with the three of you, who you at least know will be taking it seriously?

I must be missing something here.
