Default Paying for Extras

Let us know how much you'd be willing to spend to support Jockstocks .. please!

Make sure you choose the option that you are most likely to pay for.

Groups are the ability to group yourself with your friends; however, you are only grouped on based off of your 'Main Game' portfolio [i.e - monthly, yearly, quarterly and TV].

Leagues are the ability to set the days of the week you can trade, what sports you can trade, etc.

The Daily Divi is a list of the daily dividends with the statline for each individual player.

Please also note that all subscriptions will be on a 6-month/1-year basis.

Any questions, please post before you vote.

Nick

I voted for level three...
...although I would expect a discount if paying yearly.

Please note also that these levels aren't carved in stone as yet......and that the daily divi mentioned would be divis with associated stat lines attached, not just the divis themselves.

Default I went with number 4...

...no contribution.
I've given at least $100 to J$ over the years, but none of it interests me anymore. I may be online twice a week---J$ can't be won that way.
I like things like the ncaa pickem/superbowl picks/ etc.

But if those things would cost me-I'm out.

additional leaderboards, divi donkey reports, etc are great...but are they worth the subscription? I'm not so sure.

Throw in prizes for the comps, then more people will pay...

Hey,

Have to mostly agree with this. Even with prizes you would have to set limits as to number of ports you can have and number of prizes per port over the year or they same few people would keep winning and people would lose interest.

Personally prizes are not an incentive for me. I just like the game even though I don't really actively play much any more. I still hang out here and probably will until the site goes the way of the old site or they give me the boot like they did at the old place.

I do like the sounds of some of the proposed options that would be available.

Default I'm willing to pay.........if


If we have more sports. I'm sure no one wants to hear from me,

But I'd be willing to pay on a monthly basis if more racing stocks were added. Indy,Busch, (Nation whatever) and NHRA. Would also love to see NCAA FB.

I'd pay for the leagues option. Weekly hold'em comps would be a laugh, as would a J$ fantasy league based upon divis rather than stats.

you been reading my notes?

As I think I've mentioned....the whole idea of these premium services is...those who don't want to pay can still play...those willing to pay for extra features to make the game more enjoyable and/or convenient can do so......those who are interested in one time use premiums can pay to use them. Noone would be required to pay to play, they won't be at a great disadvantage in the base games. Those willing will simply have access to things non-subscribers do not.

The ONLY thing currently available that may NOT be available to non-subscribers once this starts...is market2...at least that's how we're seeing it at the moment. That doesn't mean every new thing we add will be premium either.....if we add the Nationwide, for example, that would just be more stocks available for everyone.

Is a more detailed 'brochure' forth coming?

would it be Jan to Jan, or Aug to Aug, or pro-rated to end of year, as a group?

or...each account with its own anniversary?

perhaps dues per sport per season? Giving 'specialty' players the option of all perks for just Nascar or only golf?

I have more...

....is this the right tree?

I am ready to make a donation/purchase.
How long a window until implementation of said optional Jock$tocks premium deluxe package(s)
