I still think that everyone that joins needs to contribute.

Also I do not like to limit to 15 members as that's around 5% of the board today, not including new members in the future.

The 20 cards and $5 for initial shipping costs that would be sent by each member would be an entrence fee. No refunds on them if you decide to pull out. If 60 members decide that they want to join we split it up to 4 or 5 boxes.

I also think there should be no end. Let the boxes float around forever if there is that ability. If a new member signs up, the need to pay the 20 card and $5 entrance fee. They would all send to a central location to build up until a new box can be produced. Since the boxes always seem to grow, who ever is king of the central location has the ability to trade in or take out of the box (for other boxes only) they receive to even all of the boxes up and maybe get a new one started.

Not only will this give everyone on the site a chance to participate, but the current members will receive boxes more often since there will be multiples floating around.

I also think that a majority vote should be taken to allow new members to join in. This should help to keep ass holes out. New members would also not be included until the entrance fee is received.

my 2 cents.

Ehhhh I dont know about that. I would think that having a small chunk of members would work best.

Bouwob, I like the idea, but if the box just continuosly travels, when do we decide to sell and get a case?

If you don't limit the number of people, the box will take FOREVER. Maybe have multiple boxes, I don't know.

As far as the $5 for shipping, I don't mind helping, but if you have 15 people in it, that is $75 for shipping. A large Flat Rate Box with $500 shipping is going to be $20.20, so I wouldn't mind chipping in $2 for shipping.

EDIT- And the entry fee is the 20 cards in my opinion.

WHAT DO U THINK OF MAKING THE CARDS INCREASE IN VALUE LIKE I STATED ABOVE...

1ST AUTO A MIN BV OF $8
2ND AUTO A MIN BV OF $15
3RD AUTO A MIN BV OF $20
4TH AUTO A MIN BV OF $30
5TH AUTO A MIN BV OF $40

SAME WITH EACH SECTION
5 game used
5 inserts BV $5 or more
5 Mix (mix and match any of the three above).

I think that if our ultimate goal is a $600-800 (or possibly higher) case of cards, I think we have to go with better quality, so I like this.

So basically it would be like the last BOX, just at the end we sell and buy something nice.

I think we should do 16 people, so like someone said, you get 2 teams during the break. The order of choosing the team should be done with a live drawing.
