but from the list you have kept updating, we will need to pester more since only 17 have said yes to the full 50M. A lot of those 17 said they would only do it provided a profit. Is this going to be a profit maker this year guys? It can be if you tell Bova "Yes, I can put in 50M"

Looks like we need at least 8 more FULL pledged 50M guys/gals to make a profit. (unless I am reading this wrong).

At the moment I have 18 give 50M commitment and 4 guys have given a minimum of 30M commitment which gives us a 1.02B commitment towards a maximum of 1.6B, which gives us a minimum contribution rate of 63.75% and for every further 10M contributed the percentage goes up by 0.0625%.

In the manual it says we should be making up to 20% profit including the early bird bonus if contribution percentage us above 50% but below 75%. when you reach 75% you are in profit excluding early bird bonus.

This season, including the bonus I will make around 9M in profit on a 71% take up. The reason we have been pushing harder is to try and get past that 75% mark to really get into a decent profit which would hopefully give more incentive for the laggards who can't be bothered.

If they would think carefully and realise that if we all contributed the profit made during the season on the mediacentre would cover the vast majority of the off season costs if you failed to make the play offs and that in the long run would stop managers going into the red during the off season and losing good players to pay off their debts.

Thanks. I agree that people need to be thinking about this. It is a great feature to give us a bit more money! Yes, you have to save up for it, but it pays off!

Think guys.....put that 50M in and get a lot more out of it. I just don't see the downside since there is so much more upside to putting in the full 50M.

With the bonus and current verbal participation there is no risk. If we in Thunder get higher participation than other leagues we gain more money than they gain. I don't get the vets that said no. Over time they put themselves at a disadvantage in Thunder and in Super Cup. I know I wouldn't want to spot a 10 mil per season advantage let alone a 25-30 mil per season advantage.

For first timres... Please remember that the investment button is for 5 mil not 50 mil so you have to mash that button 10 times to get full benefit.
