But I am definitely keen on getting some special keyrings made up for the top 50.


Cheers Garth
Is the top 30 structure the same as season 2 2007? Will the details be released before Sunday?

Second :D

But seriously, a special keyring for top 50 or whatever would be nice.

Garth: Details on the top 30 prize cash?

It's a secret, but we have bumped first to 10,000 in cash and second receives around $3000 and then progresses like normal payout.

Wowza, 10k for first, excellent Garth, well done.

Huuuuuge difference between 1st and 2nd though - although $3,000 is still very good.

Scott: Yeah, I know, just thought I'd push the idea along a little bit more. Lord knows we all want more prizes when we have the chance ;)

my understanding of this is that the prizes are just being rejigged this season to avoid the ramifications of having the wrong prize package up on the web for so long - hence the difference between first and second.

if thr first prize was 5K, i suppose someone might reasonably claim that they read on the website that the prize was 10K, and so sue the NPL etc etc.

not that i have to worry about the state finals :(

looking forward to the regionals this friday though

Nope,
Sorry benny the cunt.
10K for first is the way it will progress across all seasons unless we majorly change something again.
The State Finals prize pool has been bumped to 25K
