Still trying to figure this out...

1. If I put in $50M, what am I likely to get back?

2. What is the break-even point? Only Pete knows...

3. If some people put in $25M and others $50M, then they both get the same back or is it proportional to what is put in?

It depends on the pledging level across your league...if your whole league is funding full money, you will get between 60 and 65 million back

RTFM

No...the 25m pledger gets the half back, compared to the 50 m pledger...think about the pledges like shares ...

Well...I would pledge the max if we could get a positive return.

I'm not sure I trust Pete though...he has leftward political leanings. He might use the money to feed starving children or provide them with medicine rather that returning it with profit to wealthy Elite league clubs.

So far:

michigan state spartans: 50M
Guinness Drinkers United: 25M+ (possibly more) - 25M min 50M max?
Preston Plumbers: 50M
Leeds Celtics: 50M
thomastem: Not full 50M but will do what he can... 25M min 50M max?
Wilmersdorf Wadenbeisser: Not full 50M but will do what he can... 25M min 50M max?
Chichester Chimera: 50M
Lyon Eagles: 50M
Shard End Sharks: 50M
Black Dragons: 50M
Midnight Marauders: 50M (if the estimation is 50%+)
Neuseen Buccaneers: 25M+
Leverkusen Leopards: 50M
San Diego Blitzkrieg: 50M (if the estimation is 50%+)

Total so far: 14 teams pledged $600M minimum - $675M+ max.
2 teams with the condition that estimation is 50%+

Right now Elite League Media Center has for season 25 (not active) 690M and 43.1%, 800M is the 50% goal.

So can you pledge money for S25 and get a payout? Without costing you anything?

S25 costs you nothing, and gets you nothing. Really it's a "test run" where you can see how it works for free.

At 43% currently, it would be a losing proposition at about 11M lost over the length of the season (50M invested, 39M return), which is why I "guesstimated" around 50% is the break even point. It may be closer to 55% ... only Pete knows for sure.

From the G1.1 thread:

If you guys are not sure what will happen: just go to the mediacenter and "pledge" the full amount. Until Seasonrollover it will costs nothing, and you can see the result, the return. This should convince you. No worries, at season rollover all pledges are reset, so this is without any risk for you.
