I thought of this last night. What if we had a lotto drawing for a special prize. The cost to enter the lotto is 1 RC. The reward would be an increase of real potential to 1 player on your roster.
Pretty much what would happen is this. Each GM interested in this idea would spend 1 RC to enter the lotto. Then, Id run a random number generator to determine the winner.
Then Id run a number generator to pick a player on that GMs roster, and give that player a 25 point increase to real potential.
Thoguhts, ideas, concerns?
Not 100% Ill do this, but it seems like a fun interesting idea.

I guess go for it...but I dont really see it promoting an increase in activity during the down time

Well the main thin is I havent been able to tally end of season posts yet, so all thee posts still go on last season. So people could just post up to get to 2 upgrades.

but I'd say it still feels as though it'd be only marginally useful in promoting activity. I myself stand to gain as I'm usually borderline between 1 and 2 upgrades...but just knowing there's extra time to catch up is motivation for me, I probably wont wager an RC in this unless theres only like 2 other teams doing it.

Not sure if I'd wager an RC since I've got a lot of youth and want to keep as many RCs as I can guarantee myself. But I like the idea. I better start posting a bunch more to get another RC for the 200 posts lol.

What if a player got maxed out? Let's say he had 90 potential and then you add 10, what will happen to the ramining 15? Will it go to another random player on that persons team?

i'd enter it, and i think it's a good idea but not something that should be done regularly(yearly) or anything like that.

maybe it should be if you max that person out the remaining will just be thrown away, you can not use it, only can use it on one person.

not sure i'd do it since i was planning on using all my upgrades
i think there should be some sort of age limit on what players can get it why would you want a 33 year old to get taht potential
we could do this every year

Should not be done every year. Maybe once in a blue

maybe shouldnt be for 25 points every year but i think a lot of people would use their RC on this if it was for say 10 potential points
