Poll here is to help decide how teams acquire revenue to sign players, pay for contract obligations from cut players, sign draft picks, etc.

The choice of how we handle this is going to have a pronounced impact on the nature of teams in that land in the outlier range - but that's also how the real MLB works. Which is kind of a quandary as far as balancing fairness against approximating IRL systems. So I'm tossing it to the folks impacted by these rules to help decide what works best.

Unless 2/3rds of owners (20) pick an option that isn't flat, I think we go with that as I don't want 11-14 users getting burnt by a system they didn't want to participate in.

If 20+ users want to explore different options, that's cool too, you don't have to rally behind a single one - just don't select flat. We'll explore it further later to decide on a specific unequal model.
