I would like to restart this thread when I get home (20th April), with all the info you guys require. Sorry for wasting your time for now. Mods please close this and sorry. Thanks for understanding.

Might I suggest you require a video in the application, if you're interested in being careful about what kind of personalities you want to be mingling together.



Also, thank you so much for your contributions. Damn I wish i was rich ;;



Edit: The only "downside" is that the majority of people who are interested would have to probably move far away from home. Though I'm sure some would like moving far away!



@OP: Might you include more information on how much you expect of the players and such (do they have a "trial period", how you gauge improvement, etc), so as to lessen the amount of applications that don't interest you ^^



I feel like this is a very big thing, I'm sure you can handle it, but I hope it all goes smoothly. Just in case you might want to get some legal shit like contracts going on, but you may have already considered that.

Their is considerable risk on your part investing in unknowns (in particular salaries and travel should be conditional on their proven ability), and considerable risk on players' part giving over their lives to an unknown in you.



Make sure any contracts are very clear, get a lawyer to look at them, and make sure you fulfil all obligations under that contract no matter what happens. Almost all new team efforts end up in drama over who didn't pay whom and who promised whom what.



You said enthusiasm is the key criteria. That is appropriate for a fun project, but would players who wish to make a career out of this really go for that? You should consider both a player's marketability and performance when making a decision. There are few foreign players with the ability to place highly at notable tournaments, and even fewer have ever progressed from being outside that group to inside. Truly developing players from unknowns to winners is rare to nonexistent, so consider your strategy carefully. Everyone left over is a member of the OP race and you have to figure out which one of them is the least OP. - CosmicSpiral

Some photographs, videos or other details regarding the house and your sc community experience would also be good. I want to make sure our players are going to be in good hands.

Good luck and I hope this is legit! I do, but I don't want to move to Czech RepublicGood luck and I hope this is legit! When I think of something else, something will go here

WhiteSatin Profile Joined December 2012 United States 308 Posts #11 this sounds cool but you need to post something to validate your post.

post some pics of the house, location, or at least explain why you are wealthy so that you could afford to basically just support players.

What Ognis said. I would be comfortable getting up and moving anywhere out of my country if it meant a place where I could sit down and just focus on practice, practice and practice. What Ognis said.

packrat386 Profile Blog Joined October 2011 United States 4847 Posts #17 This doesn't really seem legit. Sorry to be distrustful of random people on the internet, but a little more evidence that such a house even exists would be nice. Managing this stuff takes a professional and it doesn't seem like OP has any particular qualifications or experience. Also all of the steps that you outline require money, is that all coming out of your own pocket? Do you have investors, etc? Maybe its legit, but for the most part, if it sounds too good to be true... dreaming of a sunny day

What kind of validation would a guy with a lot of money and a house he's not using have? He doesn't have any background with this at all. He's hoping to build from the bottom.
