Yeah, Nestea has won close to $200k... The only thing in the US is where MLG is $5k for one weekend...
In comparison, Code S is about $50k for 1st place this season!

I've been on "This iS not a game" for a bit, not sure about it's a sport. Think they'll stick to the one word script.

We enjoy it. We're having fun. If you don't you have only yourself to blame.

When can we expect the final audio?

Lets make this the biggest thread in TL history

About that progamers career lasts for about 5-10 years is bullshit in my opinion. Some research found out that average age of players (not just progamers) is over 30 years because nowadays people dont quit playing they just keep playing even they get older :>

I'm so tired. I just want sleep. This better be an awesome announcement.
I love all the mystery, though. Way better than announcin announcements for announced announcements :D

Dropping out in the code S ro32 this season is about as much prizemoney as:
- Ro8 NASL - 4th at an MLG - 4th at IEM - 4th at dreamhack
I don't see where this myth is coming from.

I'm pretty sure just RO32 of Code A nets you about $1500, it goes up depending where you place, and I'm assuming code S is a shitton more.[/QUOTE]
only money you get is payed to you by your team who get it via sponsorships, presuming you forget player sallery and only go by what GSL pays out, you only get money from coming first, the rest is just what the sponsors pay the teams which a cut of is given to team members

I hope the announcement doesnt turn out to be an announcement of an announcement.

Look at MKP's earnings. marineking has been in 3 gsl finals >.> thats still at least about 10k per finals most of the koreans at the top of the earnings list are gsl finalists
Please know what you are talking about. http://www.sc2earnings.com/
MKP as 5th highest earning player. Any foreigner is still pretty far from coming close to his earnings.
