DISCUSSION: 1 PAYOUT VS SEVERAL

[PigsRule]

I for one would like to see payouts to playoff teams. Winner take all seems better suited for yearly redraft leagues imo, but congrats sir 

Open for discussion.

The returning team fee of 10$-15$ (300-450$ pooled for 30 teams) doesnt make for a substantial prize pool to be worth the time to manage and split up amongst say 16 playoff teams. The team fee would have to upped to 75$-100$ per framchise annually to make it worth while.

Say you collect 10$ per team.
Thats 300$ as a prize pool.
Split 300$ prize money 16 ways for the playoff teams would look like this

League Champion/1st 150$
2nd 75$
3rd 25$
4th - 16th win 4.00$ each?

Maybe at best a league credit for everyone other than Top 3???

I wouldn't mind a 80/20 split between the top 2 (would of been $360/$90 this year). Getting to the finals should be worth something. Its not easy 

[papps]

I think prizes for the top three would be ok.  If everyone paid $50 or more for their teams it would be different.  But with only $300-$400 in prize money to split up I think the top three finishers at minimum should get something.  Maybe during the championship week, the two losers from the conference finals play for third place.  Maybe like a 50-30-20 percent breakout for the top three teams?

My idea would be....
All playoff teams get $10 (league fee)
Champion gets everything else.

Making the playoffs pays for your league entry.
Winning the championship pays out.

I vote for a 50/50 split for the conference champions, retroactive to this past season.  Haha

Maybe an 80/20 split for the Finalists and then entry fee paid for the four division winners or most points scored in regular season or best regular season records?  I kind of like the idea of rewarding something for doing well over the regular season.

Increase the fee then pay the top 4.
30 bucks?

I say at most pay the top 2 teams, second place getting thier entry back plus $10. 3rd and 4th get free beer tomorrow.
