Kain Spero Imperfects Negative-Feedback 1191	Posted - 2013.03.27 16:20:00 - [1] - Quote Seeing as how May 6th is a good ways off I think this should give us plenty of time to have another player tournament. Right now I'm looking at a buy in tournament with teams putting up between 50 million to 100 million to enter the tourney with the money then payed out to the winners and those that placed. I'm in contact with members of the community to see about having another party or potentially a professional gaming organization run the tournament while I will handle the collecting the buy-ins and distribution of the winnings to the champions and to those who place. I'll keep you guys posted as this develops, but if you are interested in participating I would go ahead and start getting organized.
Sentient Archon Red Star. 871	Posted - 2013.03.27 16:42:00 - [2] - Quote I'm willing to sponsor upto $100 in prizes. Can be a combination of Merc Packs, gift cards, PSN cards etc!

Mr Kane Spero Spero Escrow Services 3	Posted - 2013.03.27 16:52:00 - [5] - Quote Just to clarify, Spero Escrow Services would be handling the prize money and will do so free of charge. I would like to balance out participation with the awesomeness of the size of the prize pot, so I'd like to get feedback on where on the scale other CEOs would like the buy-in to land. Again right now we are looking at a 50 to 100 million ISK buy-in.
Maximus Stryker Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 398	Posted - 2013.03.27 17:03:00 - [6] - Quote Is this open to all corps? (aka - is DEVHX allowed to participate? Will they participate under their different corps?)
Mavado V Noriega SyNergy Gaming 2594	Posted - 2013.03.27 21:40:00 - [7] - Quote 50-100M? yeaaaaaa we'll pass on this one im sure last one didnt have much turnout and that was a free entry + alot of corps probably saving up ISK for PC
Icy Xenosmilus Eyniletti Rangers Minmatar Republic 20	Posted - 2013.03.27 21:57:00 - [8] - Quote Kane I was wondering, could this be a draft pick tourney? Everyone signs up, then captains choose their teams.

Those are still sold with a promise to reimburse at commercial release. http://www.gamestop.com/ps3/dlc/dust-514-gamestop-mercenary-pack/106107

King Kobrah SyNergy Gaming 110	Posted - 2013.03.27 22:41:00 - [11] - Quote Have to agree with mavado, smart corps are saving up ISK for planetary conquest, burning 50-100m plus tanks and dropsuits isn't a very intelligent thing to do a month before release. If you lowered the ISK significantly, corps would have no problem participating just for the bragging rights/good games/merc packs
Solomon Malcolm BurgezzE.T.F Orion Empire 13	Posted - 2013.03.27 23:22:00 - [12] - Quote I Saw the Last event Kain Did went well. Looking forward to see how this turns out, if started that is.

Figure if have what, 50 members in the corp; maybe 20 wana do it; you are looking at a donation of 2.5M per player. That is what, maybe 2-3 days worth of playing ISK, or less if wana only run BPO fits. I mean i figure even if corps might be broke, indv players should have a decent amount of ISK
The Dragon Ascendant Destruction Initiative Enterprise 144	Posted - 2013.03.28 00:18:00 - [14] - Quote I could fund 4 corps at 50mil isk... But I'm not going to.

If 50-100 million is to high what kinds of numbers are folks thinking?

Right now I'm looking at a buy in tournament with teams putting up between 50 million to 100 million to enter the tourney with the money then payed out to the winners and those that placed. Just completely crossed out 95% of the Corps and players who play this game. Tell me do you think this game/community only revolves around the top 10 Corps in the game? Or do you simply think the rest of the player base would have no interest in these tournaments?
Kain Spero Imperfects Negative-Feedback 1196	Posted - 2013.03.28 20:28:00 - [18] - Quote That's why I'm looking to get feedback about the buy-in level. I'd like folks that haven't been able to participate in a tournament have a chance to do so.

If 50-100 million is to high what kinds of numbers are folks thinking? I think it might be interesting to do the buy in at 25 million and maybe use Grezkev's leaderboard equation or something like it to seed corporations. Even with only 12 teams the ending prize pot would be pretty awesome. Throw on top of the $100 in prizes Sentient can do and we're starting to get something special. The idea of having to pay money to play in this tournament on top of the tank and suit loss just doesn't make economical sense for anyone, so you're going to have to severely reduce or completely remove the ISK entry fee. 25 million honestly isn't that bad but I can't speak for my corp's wallet or anyone else's. The 100 dollar prize at the end is enough for me to throw every proto suit I have into the fray. Hell, even if there wasn't a prize, i'd do this simply for the fact of fighting and killing good players. I'm sure tankers won't feel the same way though, 1 mil a pop isn't pretty, and even more for proto tanks.
Boomer Dues Mortis D3ath D3alers RISE of LEGION 49	Posted - 2013.03.29 00:53:00 - [20] - Quote I would suggest around 10-15m, it is not a lot by any means, but it would let weaker corps try their hand at the tournament without breaking their wallets.

Veritas Vitae Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz Noir. Mercenary Group 85	Posted - 2013.03.29 00:57:00 - [21] - Quote I've been mulling around the idea of a multi-front tourney similar to Kain's OB one recently. Maybe next week when I get some time I'll flesh it out more.
Kain Spero Imperfects Negative-Feedback 1219	Posted - 2013.04.02 19:44:00 - [22] - Quote Update! The Electronic Sports League has expressed interest in running the next Dust 514 tournament before the next build drops. While the ESL will operate the the tournament the prizes will be in-game ISK funded by an ISK buy-in that will be managed by Spero Escrow Services. Other prizes for the tourney will be community sponsored. I will update this thread as the details are fleshed out.
Grezkev The Red Guards 162	Posted - 2013.04.02 19:48:00 - [23] - Quote I love the idea of this. GNN is willing to put up $50-100 in prizes for top shelf winner provided we get some exclusive coverage.

Mr Turtlez Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz Noir. Mercenary Group 50	Posted - 2013.04.03 00:57:00 - [25] - Quote Thanks to some Donations from our friends at PRO we will participate regardless of buy in. Y'all are poor.

The Black Art Pro Hic Immortalis RISE of LEGION 27	Posted - 2013.04.03 02:01:00 - [27] - Quote Is this gonna be draft style or another corp centered tourney?
Canari Elphus Pro Hic Immortalis RISE of LEGION 53	Posted - 2013.04.03 03:49:00 - [28] - Quote I will donate the funds for a Merc pack prize if you get more than 16 corps in on this one. That is the only string attached.
Sylvana Nightwind Expert Intervention Caldari State 185	Posted - 2013.04.03 03:59:00 - [29] - Quote This is awesome.
