Does Revenue Sharing Work?

dward1 · 11-22-2019, 05:03 AM

I have Shared Percentage of Income set at 60% and the average revenue is roughly 10.5 million while one team has 7 million income in a 12 team league...so I'd expect ~$6.3mil per team to be put into the shared pot, meaning the low income 7 mil team to make +$2.1 million or so from revenue sharing. instead this team has gotten $4,200 and $0 the last two years.

no one got more than a few thousand while my highest spending team lost a million from revenue sharing. the numbers don't add up and no one is helped

Hmmm...I have no idea what's going on here. Lemme just check a test league. BRB

That is weird because all 16 of my teams (I'm in a 1901 MLB setup) got exactly what they were supposed to receive/have taken away in revenue sharing. I'm using a shared percentage of 50%. It's not too likely, but is there anything on your Game Settings > League Settings > Financials page that could be messing this up?

I don't know really what to look at to see if it could mess things up? thanks for testing...

Often best to post a screenshot of your settings plus the accounting pages for a couple teams, and people here can have a look and see if anything is amiss.

one year the Americans paid a good amount but Reign never have and Union/Doves never get any money really

I don't see anything off there in the settings, so weird to see that happen.

Next step if you want to save the game and zip files from immediately after the World Series, but from right before the game rolls over to the off-season, and send them over (https://support.ootpdevelopments.com...p-developments), that's the best thing for us to step through and see what might actually be happening here with revenue sharing.

Has there been any update on this? I am encountering the same problem. The small-budget teams are getting only a few thousand, while the big-market teams are shelling out millions into the revenue-sharing pool.
