Title: ~Tora~'s Next Gow Tournament Saturday, September 26th 4 PM EST
Post by: xXxSmeagolxXx on September 01, 2015, 05:31:18 PM
~Tora~ is hosting cash GOW tournaments once a month to get players interested in the game again. I'm helping him with the advertising a bit, and with hosting the tournament brackets and such at the tournaments. ~Tora~ posted this is in the tournament section, I feel it's important enough it should be in the main forum section too, so here it is:
"Hello everyone,

As I am sure you are all already aware I am now hosting Gow tournaments last Saturday of every month at 4pm eastern time for the rest of the year.
Last tournament was a great start but I am expecting for an even bigger turn out his month. Which is why based on turn out we may do things slightly differently this time around.

For instance in the event we only receive 12 players like last touney the finals will pay 15/35 like last time. With the winner receiving a master icon which they must defend next month.

However if we receive 16 players I believe it best to have the semi finalist play each other to determine who is 3rd and who is 4th
4th will receive 10 dollars
3rd will receive 20 dollars
2nd will receive 30 dollars
1st will receive 40 dollars and will receive a master icon which they must defend next month.

In the event we receive more than 16 players, for instance if we receive 24+. I believe it best to break up the tournament into to classes, class A and class B. Players would enter into their class based on their ladder ranking.
Class A payouts would be the above.
Class B finals would pay 10/25.
As a note all players must have paypal in order to receive their cash prizes
 
Remember the sole purpose of these tournaments is to get people interested in playing warcraft 2 again."

Remember that the best thing you can do for tora is not a "good job, tora" or "you should do X instead of Y" post, but an actual participation in the tournament

Good Job Tora but I think you should give all the prize money to only first and second place...

 ;D ;D ;D

I suppose this would make some sense, what does everyone else think?

Although the truth is claw, I am only really interested in increasing the payouts if we get more players.
For instance if we get the same amount as last time I will probably just keep the payout the same.
but if we do get about 16 I wouldn't mind using your payout structure.

i just posted standarized prize %% amounts in case you're wondering. It was a response to stpuid ~oe~ post more than anything and in the end, youre the one to decide.
4 paid places for 16 man tournament definitely makes sense is all im saying

Yeah I already planned that. We will decide the day of the tournament.
If i get enough class B or C players I am hoping I can even make a separate 8 man tourney. with separate prizes.

If anti-Hack is required by obligation for all your tournaments i will let you use UWC as main promotion.

You can use the sub forums the rules ladder and everything.

If you want to talk more about that, pm me.

1 more week until the next Gow tournament.
Saturday, on Sept 26 at 4pm eastern time.
Yamon will be defending his master tag and I will be giving away up to $100 or more depending on player turnout.
All players must have War2combat 4.0 with anti hack tech installed.
And all players must have paypal in order to receive their cash prizes.

Hope to see you all there.
