But I do wonder what accounted for that 50m drop at 19/47 ? I cerntainly don't want to repeat that mistake.

I'd guess you pledged after the automatic pledge for new managers ran out.

You get the 50 Mio Pledge granted for the first 24 Weeks of your career (see here), without having it drawn from your economy. Only after these 24 weeks (which are 48 RZA weeks or 168 days) you have to pledge from the money you made.

And then you have to look if it's still profitable to. Like ptdoc wrote: It's nearly useless to pledge anything after week 3 or 4 of a season as you will not get back what you put in.

I wrote about that in the Bootcamp-Thread a bit longer - - > click

I just pledged the full amount and once that is done there are no longer any pledge buttons to push.


Thanks for confirming, works as it is supposed to work.

The mechanic is easy.

The more do pledge, the higher the payout.
Usually with the BOTs and many veteran managers the pledge is always high enough to get a profit if you pledge early.
This season Claymores have only 70% for whatever reason as least % rate.

Pledge before the Wednesday u p d a t e after Rollover.

Only then you make a plus on the payouts.

Why? You get a bonus in the financial u p d a t e on that Wednesday.
That is 5 times the money get shown on the media center page next to your name.
Mine says right now 2.500.000 and I got 12.500.000, so that's right.
The next 23 updates you get (likely) the amount next to your name (for me 2.500.000) on to. That's until end of season.

The amount can change, sightly, since BOT teams do come and go and some manager do fall out of the FREE PERIOD.

And any case, if you did not pleade until Wednesday, the business case shrinks fast, and latest before the 3rd regular season gameday is the day this would make sense at all, since you get likely only 1 payout amount as profit back, then it's even and then a minus.

In best case (100% rate) you get over the season 84 million in return by 50 million invest.

EDIT: the manual is quite OK on that topic.
