104 sats \ 8 replies \ @Undisciplined 25 May \ on: Stacker Sports- Day 173- Saturday Poll Stacker_Sports
Despite losing every single time, I love the survivor pools (slight preference for zap pot).
I also like the zap pot because you see it climbing but I know in those pools only a few of us are really zapping large amounts to the pot. I want the NFL survivor pool to be bigger this year so I think I will do buy in for that but zap pot for everything else. I would really like to get to a pot over 500k sats for NFL survivor pool this year. Who knows, if we do a rebuy option again, maybe we can hit 1M?
reply
I wonder if a zap pot with a rebuy option could work.
reply
How could we manage that without knowing who is zapping?
reply
When someone gets eliminated, tag them in a comment and say "zap 1k (or whatever) to reenter the contest".
reply
Could work. Should I change the buy in structure this year for survivor pool and just have people deposit sats into survivor pool account with comment or keep buy in by zap? Buy in by zap is cool because you see the pot climbing on the post but then 10% goes to fees. Last year I covered the fees with rewards the Survivor Pool got but I don't think it will get enough rewards to cover 50k in fees if we have a 500k pot.
reply
Yeah, it would probably be better to have people deposit the funds.
reply
Yes unless everyone agrees they don't mind contributing 10% of their buy in and rebuy to fees for the betterment of the broader community. I will do a poll of participants prior to updating the rules for 2024.
I don't care which route we take. I just don't want to cover 50k sats gap due to fees.
reply
I would prefer that. I don’t mind SN getting a cut.
