How much are you willing to settle for your FTP money?

Given the latest news coming out, it seems more and more likely we are not going to get all of our money back. However, FTP as a brand is probably going to be revived by Bernard Tapie. So how much of your money (percentage wise) would you need to get back to even consider playing on FTP again? I want at least 80% and anything less than 50% would result in a lifetime grudge against everyone related to FTP.

GBT is going to do a cost benefit analysis on the cost of retaining players vs cost of procuring it. I wouldn't be surprised if they pay us less than what we have. So how much would you settle for to keep playing on FTP if it does come back?

They were saying you would get <.20 on the buck...if it was taken over by a legit company who had the proper funds, everyone would be back on there. Anyone else who says they won't is lying.

anything less then 100%, then no way. 100% plus interest would be fair.

Re: How much are you willing to settle for your FTP money?

stupid poll, what I'd be willing to settle for(thread title) is very different to what I would need to receive to consider playing on it again(poll posted).

Yes because you are going to settle for whatever they give you

Re: How much are you willing to settle for your FTP money?

I mean the thing is, if US players are paid back only like 70 or 80% or something, the owners of FTP will have a marker on their backs for the rest of their lives until they pay up the rest of the debt. I assume their desire to restore their reputation will encourage them to pay up eventually.
