I agree, I can't believe people complain, for any serious contender, $10 is not a barrier. It also actually is probably going to shave off like 2-3 rounds of play so will save you hours of waiting etc. Good luck to everyone trying :D. | ||

I think most of the people complain because the tournament hands out only 1/10th of the money they take in, forgetting about the valuable NASL spots and the one seed into the grand finals. It's like people complain how Code A is not worth it, totally forgetting about the shot to get into Code S. edit: On June 07 2011 02:54 chickenhawk wrote: Only 500 dollars for travelling? scratch everyone from Europe and Korea then.. 500 dollars will not even cover 25% of the travelling. Unless teams support there players... Yeah, I agree. It would be better if they just bought the tickets and hotel for the participants. Giving 500$ for everybody, regardless if they need less or need more is kind of stupid. | ||

PS Poke, after seeing your MLG run I think you actually have a serious chance of qualifying for NASL season two! So goodluck with this! | ||

Unless teams support there players... Yeah, but it's one of the problems the players are aware of when they want to enter a North American tournament. If someone here wanted to go and try to do the qualifier for the GSL they'd have to foot the bill to travel to Korea. | ||

Not sure whether $1000 covers flight and lodging fees, but how does it compare to MLG? Unless you are a GSL superstar, I'm pretty sure MLG covers none of your travel or accomodation expenses ... and their online pre-qualifiers have an entry fee as well. | ||
