5 participants already voted for $30 and now @eaLiTy too
If we get a few hands more with lowering the fee, I guess we should go with the lower fee as more participants mean more competition and that would be interesting. Back in the day, I guess we had a few more cricket fans here; not sure why they aren't active anymore here. webtricks, umeeridres, pakhitheboss etc. Where are they now
With few participants, it's not going to be enjoyable; will be boring TBH.
Waiting for @Haneubu @teosanru to confirm. We have plenty of time so no rush ofc.
I'm fine with $30, but I still feel that $20 is the optimal starting point since lower fees could attract way more participants as some of the posters above pointed out.
The primary problem with the IPL is its unpredictability which is why it's very difficult winning any of these prediction pools which is why the higher fee could chase away potential participants. Lower fees could also attract Non-Cricket lovers.
Earlier i used to feel the same that lower entry fees means more participants but it hardly happened in our previous pools. If my memory serves me well then only 1 time we got 15+ participants but it happened because that time we had couple of free slots available in the pool.
We are still voting so in case if we get enough vote for lower entry fees then sure why not but for that people need to vote, we can't set the fees on only assumption IMO.
Thanks, @JSRAW for the DM related to IPL pool discussion. I am interested in joining the pool. I am okay with the entry fee of $30 but as @Vaskiy wrote above if the entry fee is in the range of $20-$25 then more people will be willing to participate. More participants in the pool will automatically increase the price money.
Thanks for responding bhai.
