We have a lot of people and so the comparison is warranted. Anyway, I have no idea if it'll all work or fail miserably. We'll see! | ||

Get a big enough turnout for it (which, seeing as it's IGN, a 200k tourney by them would likely net 10x more than any previous SC2 tourney) and putting it on TV becomes a real option. (specialty channels, but TV none the less) | ||

The explosion of e-sports growth since just a few months ago is really incredible... I doubt I would have believed there would be such a huge infusion of prize money and whatnot if I went back in time and told myself. | ||

IGN is the home for literally millions of gamers, who have no idea about "eSports" - If they get hooked from this tourney stuff will "explode". For real this time. Only concern for me it's by the same guy who was apart of CGS, which just completely flopped. | ||

(Please don't slow it down.) Wonder what the people who predicted it would really blow up knew though, aside from those who knew what Inc's announcement singularity would be. I guess we really are marketable these days :O | ||

Thus viewership for certain games with high profile players will hit the roof while games with low profile players will be circling the drain. Yeah I will definitely only have time to catch select games of players I like, cause I already watch like 3 hours of gsl per day and I don't have enough free time to watch 3 hours of NASL as well, and how ever many hours of ign pro league on top of that. Just not enough hours in the day unless I watched sc 2 24/7.  | ||

MC will probably make 200k in the first year of SC2's existence. they're not going to get a 200k contract without winning anything in sc2 and those contracts will be coming if SC2 continues the way it's going. The teams we know now might not include a majority of their members. Eventually there are going to be some super teams if SC2. | ||
