Personally I would like to see a little variety in them but I would be willing to leave it as all NLHE for this time around. If we have interest in doing it again, maybe we double the # of events and add some other games into the mix.

As far as entry fee/buyin goes there are two thigs to keep in mind. The more people the lower the entry fee needs to be for the league. The only thing that the entry fee (as we are currently discussing it) covers is the buyins for the 1st place winners of each individual event to the main event (and if there is extra then it would go to the point leaders overall).

So, if we decide we want a $20+$2 tourney at the end and we have 15 players the league buyin would have to be $15 which would only leave $5 for a point leader at the end.

If however we have 25 players in the league and a $10 entry fee, we have enough for the $220 in main event entries and $30 to split up to the point leaders.

Other possible combinations below:

Minimum of 44 players for a $20+$2 tourney at the end (with $5 entry fee)
Minimum of 22 players for a $20+$2 tourney at the end (with $10 entry fee)

Minimum of 22 players for a $10+$1 tourney at the end (with $5 entry fee)
Minimum of 11 players for a $10+$1 tourney at the end (with $10 entry fee)

we should be shooting for the ones in bold, IMO

BUYIN:
TP has said that he is not able to set up $5 tourneys (as far as he could see) so it looks like the events will have to be $10+$1 at PokerStars. BUT, you only need to play in as many as you want. The entry fee allows you to play them all but if you just wanted to play in one you could. If you win your first one you don't HAVE to play in any more, but you would still get the buyin on top of the tourney winnings if you did. So hypothetically you could get into the main event for $5+$11 in fees and first event buyin (plus you would get 1st place payout in the tourney so you would already be positive)
