announced way to late just like sec + danish community is -5 teams so i think 32 will be already hard. And i think playing on monday and thuesday will be hard for a lot of people aswell but the rest looks great like sil said.

more like 3 team, that might attend. Rest of the teams can't stand a chance if top teams are attending, and they won't even bother to sign up.

Have to agree with Roy,
Announced way to late.
Think it's hard to create a prize pot like this anyway, although i don't know what venue that is and how the organization is running

i ment when they also have to pay for venue etc.. don't think everything will be sponsored and at this time, don't think that many teams will signup

Entrance fee is 400 euros so they keep 5600 € for themselves in case of 64 teams? Which is double less than 12000 you calculated :P

It should get filled up, with a prize pot that big the top 10 should be going anyway.

EDIT: Just realised it was a 64 team tournament. I'd say 40 or so teams

I hope we reach the 48 mark, would be a sick trigger.

Yeah well if its 20k for 64, logic would only assume that its 10k for 32. I mean anything around that mark is phenominal for a 32 team tournament

Shabbie it's

24 teams 5000 euros
32 teams 8000 euros
48 teams 15000 euros
64 teams 20000 euros :)

8 is near enough to 10, still impressive for 32 team :)

then atleast another 1000 euros to live there, so even if you win the lan you will finish losing money overall.

worth a try!
