I don't mean to be a bad apple or try and ruffle any feathers but weren't the payouts in the $30 contest supposed to increase when you git your mark of 130 teams? Based on the payouts and the 144 entrants we had the payout was a total of 2985 on 4320 in entries which is roughly 68%. In the $60 contest you paid out 94% and in the 120 they were paid out 89%. Is the $30 contest the bastard child here or what? LOL I mean poor Michael Cole who finishes 5th out of 144 contestants get $25 back which by the way isn't even his $30 entry back. Something isn't right about that. Anyway shame on me for not paying attention to the payouts before entering but add in 20% to the payouts compared to the other contests and that is $800+ you could payout to make it comparable. Just my two cents...moving on

Not sure if this relates, but the first thing that came to my mind was Matthew 20....verse 13.

I don't ever remember anything stated regrading increases. The other contests fell below what they expected, so they took a "hit." Would you expect them to decrease the payouts the same as they should increase?

This was posted by Greg and as a participant, albeit not even a winner I think my post was more then fair, but thanks for your concern fellas.

I think this $30 contest is going to fill quickly. We will expand beyond the 130 teams if needed and add to the overall prize pool, building up second through fifth place first. Keep 'em coming, but don't wait too long if you want to get into this price level. Thanks all.

Thanks Glenn but I will just wait for someone with a clue to answer my question. It was a nice try though....

C'mon, Craig, let's have a MB verbal battle, it would spice up the offseason.....especially for the lurking non-posters.

I'm still looking for my payment from the Chargers/Packers for investing in their players in quite a few postseason contests.


Sorry, I didn't realize Greg posted that increase info.
