Handicap Table: Appearance Fee

My opponent threw a 1 on the Apprearance Fee, so I had to pay 5000 GPS to let my star Lion Warrior play.

Two questions:
1. What to do with the other 5000 (can't buy anything for that, can I)?
2. How does this affect my TR? (League Tracker reduced it by 1)

My point is that everything in BB is done with a multiplier of 10.000, EXCEPT the Appearcane Fee. Wouldn't it be wiser to throw a D3 and multipy by 10.000 GPS?!?

Does it matters?

It's the same.... you just let those 5k in pocket for the next time...

About the TR... depends on your SPPs... you just add the fraction for the money with the fraction from SPPs: from 0.5 up, from 0.49999 down, I think...

Allowing 5k entries only allows for some more agility... we are making a small league where Star Players are allowed in the rosters, by a 10% payment each game (after a full price starting fee).... this makes all Ks count (as a SP wage can be 6k or 12k...)

Actually...

Actually I reread the rules... and they really say you round down the SPPs/5 before adding it to the money value... sorry... :oops:

Perhaps changing this rule makes more sense than the Apprearance Fee?!...

Or perhaps it's all right...

This is far from the only place where you get multiples of 5k instead of 10k. The perfect example is freebooting.

Since the SPPs are divided by 5 and rounded down, it is commonly assumed that the cash is also rounded down when divided by 10k.

To answer your question, you could easily use that 5k when freebooting a player that normally costs 30k, 50k, 70k, 90k, etc.

Or if you really want to ditch it quickly, you could freeboot an assistant coach or cheerleader. :lol:

hmmmm according to LRB page 43 only players, stars and wizards can be freebooted, not other coaching staff - or?
