exactly. The idea of a local tournament is awesome, spending 30$ when people like ddoro/dde/lefnaij/antimage are in it is really just throwing the money to the wind. I love the idea of playing locally in a competitive/semi-competitive setting, but I can't afford 30$ to do it. | ||

We are very excited about the sponsorship that we have added raffles for just the players and a separate raffle for the spectators, since we have been getting a high demand of people who will be showing up to cheer the players on.

While no doubt difficult, I believe that's the point - you need to find some sort of sponsorship. I'd love to attend this, but if the names you've mentioned show up, I'd literally be throwing money away, as someone else mentioned earlier in this thread. If you have grandmaster quality players in a tournament, expecting a decent showing of master/below to come, play and pay is a bit much, IMHO. | ||

But it all good if u don't have money to waste come out to the tournament and meet the pro's and enjoy some good games | ||
