(S24) - PT 5 - Trade Ya

Not a Dotts guy (although I might splurge because it sounds cool) so my thoughts on taking money out of the league:

I see two approaches to taking money out of the league: making earning it harder, or giving players something to spend it on that isn't game-breaking or disadvantageous to players that don't have the extra time to earn more.

 As someone who looks for the easiest way to get something done, I quickly saw the extreme earnings/effort ratio for having a Twitter. I spend under a minute a day coming up with a relevant tweet, and maybe replying to someone else, and make ~650k per week. There are some great ISFL accounts that put in tons of effort and make the exact same amount, so I really feel like I'm getting free money. I don't really know how to change this other than lower the amount per tweet but give bonuses for quality content, but I am not sure how that would be implemented.  

One other suggestion I have is to limit the 2x first media bonus for rookie players. Instead of a flat 2x multiplier, it should be 2x up until a certain point than 1x (or 1.5x if draft week, etc.). I personally churned out a 3k word article for my first to set myself up with a nice nest egg, and their are some other rookies who don't have to do media for the next 5 seasons because they wrote 10k behemoth articles as their first media post. Having the bonus apply up until a certain amount of words will still motivate new players to write something of decent length, but will stop rookies from being the richest player on their DSFL teams.
