Satellites are the way up. They pay seats, not credits: the pool buys as many tickets as it can — one per 4,444 cr (Millionaire / Mega) or one per 25,000 cr (World Championship) — with leftover credits going to the first manager who just missed a seat. Tickets never expire, are never sold, given or traded, and are refunded if you withdraw before the lock.
Read the headline figure correctly. "At a full field" is a ceiling, not a promise. What actually pays is what the entries put in, less the rake. The lobby shows how much of the full-field figure has been funded so far.
