First and foremost, if I say we're going to put on that event, and we don't, do you stand to lose from the reputation?

My sole purpose isn't to be negative and attack your event. My sole purpose is to prove you are a scam and I've provided plenty of proof that you never bothered to address and correct.

If you need explaining of my latest post, CXG was a huge event in 2004, promised hundreds of thousands of dollars, live finals in Las Vegas, ended up being a huge scam and the owner vanished with the money. Now if you seriously think we're not going to completely doubt your event when you appear out of nowhere, with no backing, promising tons of money with a live finals in Las Vegas, you're absolutely crazy. And so far, you've provided ABSOLUTELY NO PROOF to your legitimacy.

That post was half good feedback but then you started to just become hostile again, please just be more civil. I will sit here and answer questions all night long, all I am asking for is just a little common courtesy.

First and foremost, if I say we're going to put on that event, and we don't, do you stand to lose from the reputation? No. We do. So whats your point of even sharing your two cents? Regarding where we get this money from and what not? Its 2011, $1.25 million isn't what it used to be and frankly its none of your business or your concern where our current capital came from.

We also do not ask for faith, we show you our web site, you register and you get full access to that site. We also provide you with the scheduled dates so you know what you are paying for and when you are getting it. If you win a round and are eliminated in the future, it clearly states on the web site you will receive your prize amount with 7 to 10 days from the time you are eliminated. That is not waiting until the end of the tournament.

The problem is that it does not matter when you payout. Once the players register, you can just run off with the money. This is the reason why a venture such as your needs to more than just faith.

The reason your system is so alarming is because the rules explain it something like this:



Even if the player amounts aren't perfect multiples of 4, and a round robin happens at 50 players, how does that impact a net gain of half the entry fee? If anything, the first few rounds should double money then the prize pool should be distributed in a different manner for the top 64 players. No one will want to play a tournament where half the money goes to the organizer.

Great point actually, its a chopped video that we are still working on for final cuts, but there is good reason you see other games. The NeSE has plans to incorporate up to four more games next year into our exact tournament system if our first year is a success. Our commitment is to eSports in the US as I have previously stated, that does not mean ONLY StarCraft 2, as there are definitely other video games in eSports.

Not taking sides or what, but seeing all this math sort of annoys me. You end up with a big number, and get annoyed at the organizers turning up a big profit. Doesn't the top four get a plus two trip to Vegas PLUS the crazy first, second, and third grand prizes?

Sigh, G2Wolf you are intensely persistent just to be a negative individual. YES SOMEONE IS PUTTING THAT MUCH MONEY INTO A PRIZE POOL FOR ESPORTS A CORPORATION THAT HAS THAT SORT OF CAPITAL BELIEVES IN ESPORTS IS THIS SO HARD TO BELIEVE?

You have demonstrated a really great point. I am going to get a full breakdown together that displays where all of the prize pool money goes including the tax on all transactions starting with our first round and ending with our finals. I will have this posted most likely under the Tournament Schedule sections of the web site which are both on the main site and the StarCraft II Game Site.

I will also attempt to PM you on this forum when I have uploaded these successfully and hopefully that will clear some of the air.

Joebob, the moral of the story here is if YOU do not believe it is legit even after all the announcements DON'T REGISTER. We are looking to provide the best gaming environment on the internet to people who are open to the atmosphere. If you're a negative nancy, why even get involved at all? Just mind your own and go on about your business...
