DMC Draft Master Challenge - Real World Season III

How Draft Master Challenger Works...
The idea behind the DMC is different to every other draft, so be prepared to slug it out for a worker and Balance the Finances.
With a “Normal” Draft, once your selections are made, you get your hands on the Data from day 1. This means everything is as you drafted it and nothing changed. That format has no consequences for bidding too much, signing too many top workers and much more would easily have no impact when starting a save.

The DMC is going to challenge every player who takes part, as the way you bid, set up your promotion and save your cash will determine the whole landscape of the draft.

The Data won't be released on day 1, but will be released based on 2 Years of simming the game. The Save will then be turned into a database and set aside. From there the Saved game will be simmed for a further 8 years (Making it 10 Years in total).
At the end of every year, a whole array of perks will be given to promotions who Achieve certain yearly awards. Those will range from the End of Year Awards, The Top 5 in Power 500 and Top 5 in Most Popular 100. They will be noted every year for 10 years and earn rewards for the promotions who achieve them.
At the end of Years 5 and 10, there will be overall Achievement rewards. Those will be for the #1 Promotion, Most Wealthiest, Promotion who have reached Big/Large/Titanic, Highest Momentum and Prestige and then punishments for those who go bankrupt in the 10 years, those who finish last and those who finish second to last.

Under no amount of requests will I release the data at the beginning, or unedited after the 2nd year, not until all the prizes are added. The landscape that you set up at the beginning may not be the one you step into when it's all said and done. So worrying about not getting the workers you want, doesn't really matter as much. The same can also be said for getting all the workers you want. Not everyone will be with you after the 2 Year mark. Keep this in mind and remember it's about being the best all round… Roster, Cashflow, Promotion set-up, Broadcaster deals and more.

Anyone who wins a season will win a place on the “Draft Master Challenge - Wall of Fame” and have their name attached to bragging rights forever.

The Winner of Fictional Season 1 will automatically get a “Reserved” spot in Fictional Season 2, along with those who finished in 2nd and 3rd. Everyone else will have to enter again and hope a position is available. The top 2 will also receive a minor cash boost for season 2.
The loser and or those who went bankrupt in Season 1 can join but will face a cash deduction heading into season 2. Lineage for Real World and Fictional DMC games will not overlap. So the current winner of the previous “Real World” season JamesCasey will not have his rewards in the Fictional Season, they will be added to the next Real World Season.

8-20 Players will be allowed to join each Season and of those, only 17 slots will be open to everyone from the start. This is because 3 slots will be reserved for the top 3 players of the previous (Fictional or Real World) season.

The Auction Period will take around 20-25 days, with the modding process of the data taking around a week, followed by another 10 days minimum to simulate the battle and allow yearly player tweaks. Please take this into mind when taking part. After the Initial Auction period of 20-25 days, there is very little to do as a player, but it's worth being mindful of, if you don't have the time.

Season 1 Winner gets automatic place Reserved, Gets extra $750,000 cash

S1: Each Promotion starts with $25,000,000 in the Bank. This can be spent on everything from Workers to Promotion "Pimping". First you have to set up your Promotion. This cannot be changed during the Draft. Money left over at the end of the draft is the “Starting Funds” of the promotion, so don't go bankrupt on a spending spree as you may struggle to survive even the first year.
