Intrucing money into the game.

[Fabrousse]

Hi,

I used to play wa long long time ago.
Im a pro poker player now.
Holdem is a f@#!ing game with two cards and variance.
It works only because of $$$

Find a way to introduce money in da game.

I thought about the money on worms the other day and come up to the thought, how good the game would be.
Imagine you'll win season #32. What you get for winning? Picture of cup on your profile nobody looking, and umm respect? hardly, nowadays nobody know who wins tus classic seasons anyway. Try to figure out yourself 3 last winners of classic season without "uhm let me check playoffs", in fact not everyone on this site actually know how to open page with playoffs. So yea imagine if people would get money for winning classic PO. How active the league would be, how many newcomers would stuck to the league, how high would be level on playoffs, how epic dramaaaaasd would be on PO.
2nd thing is what would money do with clans. Basically clan receive money and they gotta devide it between each other thereby clans would aim to have as less players as possible -> alot of new clans being active on clanners.

Lol Impo good point when you said "Try to figure out yourself 3 last winners of classic season".

I do actually follow the PO's etc but I can't remember the winners I jus forgot haha... My guess would be, ArtiC, barman, crash...

I'm gonna go and check now lol.

When I see all things you already done here for the game.
I think it would be pretty easy for you to organize a real money league.
Not sure If it would be legal.
But you know, with site like neteller, moneybooker (skrill) or paypal.
Money transfer are simple over the web...
We use it a lot in poker for stacking, swapping etc...

Just do 3 differents leagues:
-Low stake : buy in 11$ (10$ for pricepool, 1$ for TUS) Top 3 in the money
-middle stake : buy in 55$ (50$ for pricepool, 5$ for TUS) Top 3 in the money
-high stake : buy in 110$ (100$ for pricepool, 10$ for TUS) Top 3 in the money
If you want to win some money you have to risk some money.

Pas de news de theclash snoopdog

It won't work, Fabrousse. Poker players are adults, not all worms players are 18+ (what I mean is that a lot of them are young). Stakes that you mentioned have not possibile existance at all since kids don't earn money nor the most of the students. The only possible buy in I see here is the lowest one but still, it would gather only a handful of best players in the league because let's face it, a newbie is a newbie and doesn't have a chance to be in top3. Period. Nobody will put their money knowing it's a money loss as other players are much much better. And about that handful of people left that maybe would try it? There is so little of them that it's not worth running a league with cash prize. All we can do is hosting tournaments/cups with $ to win and it's already functioning from time to time.

As said before, in my opinion the solution is sponsorship but who the hell would invest money in wa ?
