I'm kinda dissapointed in the rules- why would sponsors pay if you can't advertise? Free to play... i guess thats ok... but not really. Free to watch- well until there start being PPV sc2 games...

I feel... sad.

I feel you there.

They seem to say u can have sponsors but they can't pay you any moeny which is just outright stupid.

Free to play: I'm all for this. I'm 100% down on that note!

No PPV SC2: Good for now I guess. But this could stifle a premium oppurtunity with SC2. It would allow for more players to make a career of SC2.

Again is this really enforcable?

I believe they're saying you can advertise your sponsrs, but you personally can't receive money for it.

Though, if you actually go through the automated system it asks a lot of questions directly against what they is saying. Which gives me the impression that you are free to run a tournament under those regulations without Blizzards' need to intervene or talk with you at all about your tournament. Now say you had a $10 entrance fee for something like a Team Liquid ladder, you would have to go over all the aspects with Blizzard personally outside of their form.

Which doesn't really bother me. I think Blizzard is sort of doing a CYA right now.

I asked them on their feedback forum what I posted above, so if I get a response I'll let everyone know.

I'm 99% sure that KOTB and HDH both got permission to run their tournaments, I've heard HD mention it on his youtube channel before and also Day9 on his stream.
