Online simultaneous videos

Hi, I've had thoughts that online simultaneouss could be organized in Vindis. In my mind's eye, I see it as follows: The simultaneous giver enters a new simultaneous (basically the same form as when entering tournaments: you choose the game type, start time, time control, etc.) The simultaneous room is like a tournament room: it opens half an hour before and anyone can enter (the simultaneous giver must then also enter on time :)). There could also be a registration for the simultaneous - some might just want to come and check out the simultaneous games. When the simultaneous starts, everyone will have one game window except for the simultaneous giver - he will then have N game windows (according to the number of participants). Thinking a step further from here would be the topic (which has also been proposed previously) - paid simultaneouss. This would certainly motivate Estonian top players to give simultaneouss (if there is any financial benefit from it), but would users be motivated to pay, for example, 10 EEK to play against the best Estonian checkers? The cash tournaments haven't been going very well so you might want to be a little careful here. What do you think?
Chess players must have been particularly keen on playing in paid tournaments, now there's no way around it.
Going for credits is in some ways inevitable - even programmers' children want to eat ;) However, to increase the interest of participants in a paid simulcast, there could also be a cookie - those who beat the simulcast giver or draw will get their money back a bonus at some coefficient. For example, the winner >3x 10eek and the tie-breaker 1.5x 10eek. Or, could we make the winning amount depend on the coefficient of the simulcast giver and the average opponent with some clever formula, which would be discussed separately for each simulcast?
