Would anyone be interested in playing in a similar thing artosis is doing for maps that I pick and commentate on? I would be willing to offer incentives and a similar loser is out for next map until 1v1 style tournament? Start with 8 players first out is eliminated from tourney, offer winner of each match 5$ and overall winner gets main prize of 40$ or whatever? Any map suggestions ?

Im thinking small divide/space madness for the 1v1 , new blood bath for 4, predators for the 5, micro hunters or abbotair for 8.

No pro maps, only blizzard maps/modified versions (or any decent/interesting community maps), low money.

What maps do you guys suggest?

PS- this would probably go down on my day off /Tuesday when I can stream for a couple of hours around noon PST +

PPS- is an entry fee asking too much to cover the purse? Like a few dollars?

I have a nice 6 player map that will be fun for FFA. It is opposite of "terrible bad blizzard map" though

Hello. Here is the latest No Hunters Free For All Map Pack:

https://gofile.io/d/vCejoq Seven Sins is a Classic Map.

Join the Discord: https://discord.com/invite/kWNQvnd

We would be glad to participate.

If you have money to spare then do it with a prize pool and you will attract high lvl players.

Low level players are happy to play for the fun of it.

Entry fee would be too much yes because of the nature of FFA.

Here's my recent fight against TOP FOREIGN PROS in a FFA for Team Think Quick sponsored match:

And the Non Pro Scene has been here FOREVER (over 11 year years)

Each map someone stands to win 5$ and if they win the final map thats 40$, You dont have to win any of the map, just not lose first to advance. So multiple shots at winning 5$ every map, potentially winning 35$ in 7 games and then 40$ for the final 1v1 (75$). I was thinking like 2-3$ entry fee so I'd still be losing money- The main point is just to attract people who are confident in their skills and serious about finishing out the tourney and not just a bunch of random people who wont show up, collude, vandalize, etc.

I was actually noticing that a meta strategy in artosis FFA tourney was to simply rush out a player so that it guarantees the rusher moves on to the next map, so I was thinking that first 2 out are up for a coinflip to see who is eliminated and who advances. eg; 8 man ffa, first 2 players eliminated are both subject to advance to the next match.

Is this the same tQ clan for like 10 years or so? I believe I was in that clan back in the day.

PS- Should MC of workers be banned?

Yes! What was your tQ name my friend? Think Quick was born in 2004, so 16 years ago, although we did re-activate during SC2 for a year or so (with a sponsor mind you). Good times. We got members on US West today, playing 2s and hanging out in op [tQ]

I don't think charging people to participate in a prize event is a very good idea in principle, nor is it going to attract players in practice.
