donate as much as u can, if you can. volentary. seeing as how there is 30 people, i bet 5 of us will cover the cost of cbs ... then, with honesty in mind, save the remainder for next season.

also, even tho mash doesnt pay for the server host, pass him 25 bucks for his resources and help.

But I don't like this, teams haven't built their teams according to this. Now we have a bunch of teams with no hopes of making the playoffs with money now on the line. I know its not a huge amount, but it bring in so many issues I'd rather not deal with.
Say we have a shit GM and replace him but his team makes the playoffs does he come clamoring back for his money, but what if new guy made the moves to get his team there though? I don't know how to settle these issues.

I say Side bets for performance and no mandatory payments. Reason is simple, not everyone can pay, it shouldn't be mandatory and how do we boot someone who ends up being shit who has paid?
Make it fully voluntary, the lifers and the main guys I'm sure will pony up, but with that money you get no guarantees.

Side bets though I'd be down to make.

I don't get what the issue is...Enough of the poverty bullshit, this is the price of 1 beer in the bar, 2 Tim Horton's coffee's, 1/3 of a pack of cigs, 2 bags of chips etc. I know all about the struggling student thing, I have a family and both my wife and I are going to school, so I understand, but its $3.50, thats less than 1 cent a day. Just set up a account and ask for people to pay it..It's a small price to come here every day and enjoy this league. Should be end of story...I could see if it even ran over 5 whole bucks, but enough. I will throw up to 20 bucks, and if someone truly can't afford the 3.50, please come to me, and I will take it out of my 20. This will be done very discreetly, just ask.
