64 teams must pony up 10plex each (Auction spots start at 10 plex minimum, no limit cap on how many you pony up to ensure entry).

That's 640 plex CCP are clawing back *minimum* to pay for entry to the tournament.

Exciting!

As I'm not an economics major (nor minor), I scrawled this post in my lunch hour (chuckle @ hour) to see if my peers could analyze this and let us all know if there will be any affect on the economy?

DISCUSS!

daily trade colume in Jita is 2.7-3.5k some of that is probably generated through flipping PLEXes from buy to sell orders but 650 PLEX is not that much

The daily trade volume of plex in Jita alone exceeds 3000.

I doubt the market will even notice.

Is ok - nothing to discuss.

Get classic forum style - custom videos to captains quarters screen

Play with the best - die like the rest

CCP is saying that 5 GTCs or $170 worth of NEW plex is required to enter.

Redeemed plex do not count.

Except you can reverse redeem plex by right clicking them...

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Sometimes when I post, I look at my sig and wish that I'd follow my own god damned advice.

Thanks everyone that responded / fact checked that.

Was expecting some pants on head posts. Happily left content with the content.
