I would like to make a modification to the 20% payout rule to make it fairer. As it currently stands the rule is the last person to use a rebuy or reach the rebuy deadline without using it gets 20% of the prize pool if they don't win the whole thing. Currently there are still 4 players @WeAreAllSatoshi @Cje95 @StillStackinAfterAllTheseYears @NEEDcreations who haven't used the rebuy.

My suggestion is if more than one of these players get through this week without a loss they should split the 20% pot since it will be impossible for more than one person to then go on and win the whole thing and with so many players left they will go from having an advantage (rebuy still available) to being on a level playing field with everyone else.

I don't think anyone will have an issue with this but if anyone does let me know and if anyone has a better suggestion I am all ears.

The person who survives the longest should receive special recognition

The players with a perfect record are being punished (i.e. level playing field)

Maybe next year we will increase the share for longest without rebuying.

yeah that sounds good to me. Dang it's wild that 4 of us made it perfect this far...I'll do some math on this later to figure out the chances of this happening

I am shocked as well I mean there were a couple weeks that two of us would have the same picks but otherwise it was pretty spread out

Sounds good to me, but I think you already knew that

Cool.

I dont have an issue with that!

I think it is the fairest option considering the oversight in the rules. I did not expect this many people to have a clean sheet at this point or this many people to still be alive. Last year we didn't have anyone get to the rebuy deadline without using it and only one player came close, losing the last possible week.

This is on me for not thinking through all the scenarios fully which is why I am trying to rectify it now. I don't like making changing in the middle of contests but I don't think anyone has an issue with this one as 1 person would get the 20% anyways if they got to the deadline so what's the difference for everyone else whether it is 1,2,3 or 4.

I should have asked this before week 1.

Why is there a re-buy deadline?

Here is an unlikely scenario: perfect record thru week 17 then loses in week 18 (no chance for re-buy)

11 sats \ 2 replies \ @grayruby 2h

Because I didn't want someone winning by losing. That's why we added the side pot. I am open to adjustments for next year. I hear what you are saying.

40 sats \ 1 reply \ @Bell_curve 2h

of course it would have been easier if everyone but one person lost in week 1 lol

20 percent payout after week 1 lol

edit: because of the re-buy deadline, your proposal to split the pot is probably the most reasonable

40 sats \ 0 replies \ @Cje95 2h

I could have done the math wrong but it does guarantee the 4 of us 20k and the buy in was only 10k so we already double our sats lol
