Sheikh Khan Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) Greetings fellow nations. As a member of the Jamahiriya alliance, it is with great pleasure that I invite you to join the first Jamahiriya sponsered Fantasy Premier League. If you are a soccer/football fan we invite you to make a fantasy team and join in on the fun. For more information please [url="http://s1.zetaboards.com/Jamahiriya/forum/1691307/"]visit this link.[/url] At the moment the prizes are: Weekly Prize - 50 tech or $812,000 Grand Prize - 150 tech and $25,000,000 [b]UPDATE AUGUST 1st[/b] - the weekly prize has been increased to $3,000,000 thanks to a generous donation from Richard VII of South Sudan (Christian Coalition of Countries). To post a message on our forum you will have to sign up however if you do not want to sign up then you can contact me directly in game*. The only condition to joining and receiving the prizes is that you are a member of an alliance. We hope you will join this league and hopefully it will be a big success. Good luck to all who join. Feel free to spread the word . *[url="http://www.cybernations.net/nation_drill_display.asp?Nation_ID=461691"]Nation Link.[/url] NOTE - if you are interested in joining mainly for the grand prize I would advise you to sign up before August 12th. The first matches are on August 13th and although you can join once the league has started you will NOT be able to claim earlier points. The early points you earn are vital. Although people who join late still have a chance in winning they do start off at a slight disadvantage. You still have an equal chance in winning weekly prizes though.

HalpImBeingOppressed Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 An 812k prize? That's worth almost the same 50 tech to a seller. Why would you offer that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladius Dreadfire Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 The chance to win 150 tech and 25m sounds mighty fine. Count me in. OOC: I believe this should be in an OOC forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheikh Khan Posted July 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 [quote]An 812k prize? That's worth almost the same 50 tech to a seller. Why would you offer that? [/quote] The prize of 812k is at that because it is equal to 50 tech. I know 50 tech can be sold via tech trade for more than 812k but it is not our business what the nation does with there prize. 50 tech was just mainly to attract larger nations as they can get more benefit from tech than 812k whereas a small nation that may not sell tech can add 812k to there savings/infrastructure. Obviously the target is going for the grand prize. You may note that on our forum nations are able to donate, if we can a lot of generous donations then the weekly prizes (along with the grand prize) will be bigger. [quote]OOC: I believe this should be in an OOC forum.[/quote] I was not sure where to post this but I assumed as it involves alliance business (thats open to interpretation) it would be better to put it here. My apologies if I have posted it in the wrong section and the admins can feel free to move this to where they think it should belong.

Hereno Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 If you're too stingy with your cash to just give the small nations a full slot of 3m aid, don't hold a competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[quote]Would participate if it wasn't hosted by Jamalamadindong.[/quote] It is Jamahiriya, which basically is a Peoples Republic. There are plenty of Islamic states that go by this name as there official title. If you do not want to join that is fine but this is just a friendly tournament there is nothing political about it.

Franz Ferdinand Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 This isn't worth the trouble, considering that you should be offering $3,000,000 for the weekly prize and $24,000,000 for the grand prize to make it easier on the people sending the prize money. Odd numbers just waste perfectly good avenues for foreign aid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheikh Khan Posted August 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 The fantasy league is 36 weeks long, it is understandable that nations do not want to donate $3,000,000 every 7 days. Plus the weekly prizes are only an extra because we have had (in my opinion) good donations. If we were to give $3,000,000 it would only be fair and logical to offer 150+ tech. It is not about aiding small nations but rewarding the winner a prize (which they have a choice in and is of equal amount). I shall repeat again, if you do not want to join then don't. There is absolutely no trouble with this seeing as it is mainly me who will be sorting out aiding the prizes. The only real trouble is sorting your fantasy team out however football/soccer fans will enjoy that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyriakos Raanb Dorou Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 (edited) Looks cool, guys. And count me in to help with those prizes... $3mil/50tech a week is no problem. Thanks for hosting the event, JAMA. Edited August 1, 2011 by Richard VII Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheikh Khan Posted August 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 This is brilliant news, thank you very much Richard VII. Others who said this was pointless because of the original low prize feel free to join - I may not hold it against you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheikh Khan Posted August 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 I'll point out that you should sign up before August 12th if you want to strongly compete for the grand prize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
