Default League Idea...

I just had an idea for the league and I think it's a really good one. As it stands, we have 16 players x $10 = $160 in the prize pool.... PLUS $125 of added money.

Originally, I figured we'd just throw it all into the prize pool and distribute it to the Top 4 finishers, as follows:
1st - 40%
2nd - 30%
3rd - 20%
4th - 10%

But I have a better idea now: I think we should distribute the $160 as described above, but the added money ($125) should be battled for via a 10 player Tournament of Champions invite only freeroll. This would be for the Top TEN finishers in the league (which at is stands will be more than half the league). I think this will keep more people interested to the end, and since pretty much anyone will have a shot to get into the top ten own to the final event, it will ensure maximum attendance.

So, what do you guys think? I may go ahead and do this regardless, but I'll put it up to a vote anyway.
