I think this would be better so we can have something like

1)first person eliminated gets 2x buyin back
2)the last 2 participants gets something like 70/30 of the remaining prize pool

or something like that.

or like someone mention earlier, we could have a separate prize for a last longer entrant (ie Kane), gives guys like Evan Bourne, Morrison, Swagger more value. Actually, I like this idea a lot too.

If we can't get everyone to agree, then we'll do the $5 pool as mentioned.
Im in for $10!

Yeah exactly that - and ty

each pool would have $50.

imo break down could be like this:
1st out:$5
most eliminations:$10
2nd place:$10
winner:$25

just my .02 cents
I like this. Obv double the figures if it turns out to be $10, but this is gooood.

$10 would be better imo but I'm not fussed if it's 5 or 10.

Unofficial Rules:

20 total signups:
We will use random.org to split the group in 2 groups of 10. then each person gets 3 spots.
each pool would have $100.

1st out:$10
most eliminations:$20
2nd place:$20
winner:$50

Does everyone agree to this or if anyone wants to make suggestions?
Also buyins should be shipped no later than Saturday 1PM EST (?) so we can start doing the drawing on Saturday so everything will be all ready by Sunday. No later than Saturday to do the drawing, Sunday is Mega Sunday for me so will be busy.

We will chose an escrow today and send out all emails for buyins/info/streams etc. Should be lots of streams available for RR if you need help, lots of friendly folks here

One more thing, how does everyone feel if we change the most eliminations entrant to the longest lasting entrant. The guy with the most eliminations could conceivably be the runner up or rumble winner. But the longest lasting competitor could be guys like Kane/Evan Bourne/Morrison etc. giving these guys more value for your pick.

most eliminations seems like it'd be too hectic to track, that should just go to whoever gets ****ing mark henry, I HATE HIM SO MUCH

looking over the entrants list, i don't know who a lot of these people are (RR is the only wrestling i watch all year)

Personally id prefer most elims and longest lasting to 2nd place but i can see the argument from the other side. I mean 2nd place, most elims and longest lasting are as likely the same person any way you combine the three into two imo. Anyway, whatever ppl decide is fine is all good with me.

I like having first out and a couple other things to root for, just winner takes all locks you out of the excitement when you draw JTG, Kane and Santino, whereas with those prize spots there is a good chance you could hit one of the slots.

I assume whoever escrows (im fine with amp) is chill with Stars xfers as i dont have anything on FTP or wherever else. Damn you uber skintness, lol.

little late on the bandwagon here since i'm swamped with school, but its the weekend and i'm ready for some props. I'll prob just do them with my roommates but I'll list what we came up with so far-

last longer- #1 pick vs. #2 pick
O/U on "shawn michaels-style almost go over but do a chin-up with the top rope" things
O/U on ^- Shawn Michaels division
O/U on # seconds Santino lasts.
pick a guy- if he comes in the ring, you get a point. when he comes in, pick a new guy. most points wins.
O/U on how many people it takes to knock out big show
draft a winner at 4:1
draft a runner-up at 6:1

we'll prob come up with more but this is what i have off the top of my head on my list that is currently upstairs. come up with more plz.

ill defeletly do the random.org thing. what ill do is take the list of entrants, and rand it. top 10 will be in 1 group, bottom 10 in the other. then ill take each list, and put each name on three times. your numbers will be next to your name.

I WILL NOT BE RELEASING THE LIST UNTIL EVERYONE PAYS. dont want people to see they got spots 2,5, and 7 and say, forget this.

I vote last longer over most eliminations, but either one is fine with me. Just post where to ship money (like another poster, I only have money on Stars) and I'll send it along.

EDIT: Confirm me for the contest.

Wtf @ no Santino. Thats just odd, unless its to free up a slot for Hornswoggle (in other news plz let me not get Hornswoggle in my random pick!).

AND CONFIRMED. no santino is not good imo. comedy is needed in the runble

There has to be a really good reason to pull him, surely? I mean we know why Helms was pulled, but Santino adds more value than your average midcarder. I mean one of the highlights of last year was his record breaking appearance
