What about 5k league.. but 10k buy in
And each consecutive year you put in another 5k.
If you drop your team or quit you lose the 5k towards the next year. You can however get your deposit back if you sell your spot, somebody else buys in and the 5k deposit is refunded.
The down side is it leaves 60k fg that's dormant in perpetuity. But it does ensure security for the league.
If somebody can recoup 5k from their spot they are more likely to take the effort to replace themselves.
The scenario that immediately jumps to mind for me is this.. deadline passes for the 5k fee for the following year and a player wants to just play out the next year on their 5k that's already been paid. IMO that shouldn't be allowed because it undermines the leverage of holding a deposit.
I think we would need to structure some kind of agreement for the buy in to be a non refundable deposit unless you are able to sell your spot in the league. The price needs to be fixed and only once somebody else has bought in for 10k (1 year fee + following year deposit.) Is the 5k deposit refunded to the original member who wants out.
If they decide to not buy in again the following year and do not take measures to replace themselves they sacrifice their spot in the league and their deposit. That needs to be unequivocally understood before joining.
It could work, but in a forum that doesn't have a ton of fg anymore, locking up 50k+ for over a year repeatedly can get difficult.
Host it, would get a guaranteed 2 years out of it
It's only May though so don't rush things
People like doing multiple fantasy leagues, especially if they're affordable
I'll host the normal 10k+ yearly league, thread will be up mid-late June probably
