Paid Entry Tournaments?

[dako]

As to TWL:

No. You realize every single "Eone33seven" player in the entire game would just stack up on one squad. Other players would see this, realize they have no chance, and not even pay the $5. You would kill TWL so fast it would die to death.

As to Distension:

Lol. I wouldn't pay a nickel a year to play it, theres only 3 cliques in distension anymore: newbies who discover it and will soon leave because of asshole players, casual players who will play it if theres nothing else to do, and those who wouldn't miss a host for their grandmothers funeral in order to get level 3 shrap.

once a month (last weekend of each month) host a $5 entry tournament in ?go tournament for either 1v1 or 2v2 in jav and wb. Id sure as hell play just for the chance to win, and if not...hell its only $5! or maybe as a big multi-deathmatch instead (but dont mess it up like the step-elim the other week)

ROFL about distension.

Ill throw my 2 cents in like always. I feel pretty grimy takin PL's money when he does a paypal/pizza tourny, especially cause hes sitting there with PO trying so hard to keep it usually. If I threw in my own money I'd feel much better about it because at least then theres an outside chance that I'll lose my own money instead of not contributing and taking PL to the bank every tourny.

Distension is pretty much 2d wow, makes sense.

[Dabram]

I got a better idea, make Distension pay to play, and stay the fuck off TWL with that pay-to-play bullshit.

It could maybe work for a monthly weekend event..

[PaulOakenfold]

No, I just took it off the top. But you can not be a pretentious fuck and give reasons why next time. I never said "THIS IS IT AND THIS IS WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO, FOLKS!" Just one dart on the dart board.

I'm glad other people have seen how awful this is. I'd think as an unpaid Dean of Staff you'd see the implications of money being involved in the most important event this free game has to offer.


Money tournaments though? I could care less, it'd probably be a fun event to watch.

[Jones]

Well this event will be hosted for people who want to donate? It's an event for them. You don't have to donate, if the event was hosted normally with no reward, it would just be another event. Is there anything wrong with doing event Fundraisers?

uhh yeah, 1v1, 2v2 ok. more than that? no. twl? good bye trench wars

[freddie]

It's fine idea for an event, at least there is no reason not to do it, if someone is willing to set it up. But for TWL, no.

[Lance]

just donate if you want to contribute.

Have you actually thought this through? This is horrible.

That's pretty rough, but I agree it would be nice to do it every so often, maybe 4 times a year? For different leagues and such. The cash could help fund TW a bit and even fund rewards for other big events, such as TWL. Instead of having paid entry for that, it will be like normal, you will just get some sort of trophy for it now due to these past events which funded the rewards. It's not really capitalizing either if all the funds go to improving TW, wouldn't be any profit to it.

This could make TWL more interesting.

35 Player Rosters, $5 per player. That's $175 a squad per division. 8 Squads in a division, that's $1400 dollars in the pool total. The winning squad gets it to divide amongst it's players. In a squad of 35 that's $40 a player.

You'd probably wanna discount players who are multi-league players like:
1 League $5, 2 Leagues $8, 3 Leagues $10.

I dunno how many people would really wanna pay cash money to play TWL though.

[Salubrious]

I thought the goal was to spread the talent and increase competition, not give people more incentive to stack up on 3 squads.

[LaG KiLLeR]

Capitalizing on a free game....lol
