APAT Staking Exchange - Discussion
fandango:
I believe it to be a good idea, APAT going forward with the times.. I think it"s pretty safe to say most if not all APAT regs are trustworthy.

Although I brought the subject of averages up...it"s not really a meaningful statistic.
It"s the number of users covering each "band" of posting ranges. I"ve got over 3500 but I"m hardly representative.
If you could tell us how many users there are for say:
50+
100+
200+
300+
I think that would be more relevant.
My guess is that the VAST majority have less than 200.
Factor in the ones who posted a lot a long time ago (Kinfishi) and then went away...and the number of possible user able to participate would go WAAAY down.

This is detail and as you said yourself a couple of times earlier Paulie, not really on topic atm.
So far the vast majority seem in favour. Anyone against?

I"ll put myself in the stocks for the rotton Tomatoes!
My possibly outdated personal view is that I"m not keen on staking at all. Surely an APAT consideration needs to be how to grow players skills and to me Bank-roll mgt is a key skill. I worry that staking is seen as some sort of short cut to playing higher, I just dont believe its sustainable in the long run.
Just to be clear I"m ok with % swapping amongst friends its fun and I guess if you do bink a sat into a biggy, selling some off aint bad either.

Would bankroll management not also include costs for travelling and accommodation when related to APAT events?
Living in Scotland for example hinders the amount of events I and others can attend throughout the year. It may well be the case for other areas also.
Peronally I think the staking boards could work well within APAT. I have used blonde as both a stakee and staker. In some cases the individual has satted in and the staking actually helps them cover the additional costs as noted above. This has never really caused any problems that I"ve seen.
This year I am unlikely to be able to attend any events apart from Scotland, however I have kept an interest by buying pieces of action from others.
