Once a player has either been eliminated or won that tournament and advanced to the NE-SE Playoffs, they will receive payment for all the prize money they earned throughout that tournament. -The system will continue on in this fashion where 25% of all participants in each round will be deemed winners and advance further until we reach 50 players or teams. -At 50 players or teams we will transition from a multiple bracket system into a round robin setting. Then, those 50 players or teams will compete day by day in scheduled, arranged matches for a two week time period. Maybe I will re-read, perhaps I made a mistake. That is 100% correct, I have to be completely honest with you I really don't seem to be completely understanding your system. So far all the systems I've seen posted up here are much more complicated than what you see in our office. | ||

So far all the systems I've seen posted up here are much more complicated than what you see in our office. to be honest the format itself is quite complicated, and if there was a "simple explanation" that was set up in some shack, it should have seriously been posted here instead of just leaving the slogan "25% of all players win!!1 yay!!111!!". Your past history with that other tournament does not help, and it does not help that you sort of skip past points of contention by saying "it will be answered later", or answering confusingly. I hope for your own sake that this is cleared up soon, because it very much so resembles a ponzi/pyramid scheme. | ||

One: everything will go just like he says the first of August and everything will be hunky dory, and we will have an awesome tournament to look forward to. Two: Blizzard doesn't announce anything on the appointed day and it is confirmed as a scam (which at this point I'm inclined to believe the former). Either way nothing is going to be accomplished by raking the poor man over the coals right now. You're asking him to post a contract between the group and Blizzard on an internet forum? I would never do that. So how about we all take a step back and wait for proof. Really this is what we should do, if you are nervous about a scam, then wait for the official announcement by blizzard if the announcement never comes, then we all know it was a scam and really I hope that this is a legitimate tournament | ||

You are clearly EXTREMELY dense, it has been stated SEVERAL times throughout this thread that we entered into our agreement with Blizzard OVER 17 MONTHS AGO. The end date of the agreement was redlined to update our contract, but there is no need to change the effective date. Do you feel as though you are making progress? | ||

The craziest part is, the NeSE as an organization was excited to present our first formal announcement of our own on Team Liquid this afternoon. "Oh the irony" | ||

So I did some more reading and I came across this statement. Looking at the excel posts I made here (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=245230¤tpage=7#138), that seems to hold true. Win your first 6 games == Get out of first 3 rounds. Thus you get paid 20+40+80 = 140 = 7 * 20. So how is that wrong? Sorry, just trying to understand more clearly. | ||

Does that seem as though it can be profitable? Would I attempt to promote an organization that was THIS fraudulent? Why would I have wasted my time posting on a forum like Team Liquid? The craziest part is, the NeSE as an organization was excited to present our first formal announcement of our own on Team Liquid this afternoon. "Oh the irony" Oh I'm dense, then explained how you avoided this clause in a REAL license agreement: 5. Term. This Agreement shall commence on the date that the license is sent to you at your email address and thereafter shall remain in effect (unless and until earlier terminated as set forth in this Section) for one (1) year (the “Term”). Blizzard may terminate this Agreement immediately in the event that You: (a) commit a material breach any of representation, warranty or obligation made by You hereunder; (b) make or attempt any unauthorized assignment for the benefit of creditors, file any petition for reorganization, readjustment or rearrangement of Your business or affairs under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to relief of debtors, bankruptcy or insolvency; (c) suffer a receiver or trustee to be appointed for its business or property, or (c) discontinue Your business, or be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent. In such an event, all rights granted under this Agreement to You shall immediately and automatically expire, and You shall cease all exercise of any rights granted under this Agreement, including without limitation the Tournaments and use of materials that use Blizzard’s trademarks or copyrighted content. ---------- When your first tournament failed and you made a new one, you are required to draft a new agreement. And if you are truely stupid, that means your effective start date would be the NEW date, not the old one. | ||
