1st $50,000 2nd $25,000 3rd $15,000 4th $10,500 5th $7500 6th $5250 7th $3750 8th $3000 Granted, I agree that it should be a little bit bigger for the the "smaller" events, maybe something like 10-15k for first place to put it in line with Dreamhack, Assembly, etc. However, you can't ignore the bigger picture entirely. And please everyone, don't start talking about fairness in regards to how rank points are awarded; it's been talked to death and Sundance has even tweeted that it will change in the future. | ||

Does that mean MMA, Boxer, Losira, MC, etc. are seeded as well if they make their own accommodations to get to MLG, and not with the GSL exchange program? It's only fair, right? Yeah, I believe it's confirmed that if they get over here by means other than the GSL exchange program, then they are seeded according to points they've already earned. It was speculated that this wasn't the case in the past (and I thought this was the case) but it was refuted by a tweet from someone at MLG. I think it was MLGLee, but someone else can correct me on that, if I'm wrong. At any rate, I'm sure about the actual content of it. EDIT: I don't believe many players will do this since none did it for Anaheim, but SlayerS has shown they are willing to send people through the open so MMA and Boxer might go. MC also has the deal with SK which might pay for him to go. I don't think he will do much in the way of international events until his GSL results pick back up though. This is all pure speculation on my part, fyi. | ||

You'll be able to pick-up your spectator pass if you pre-ordered online, and likewise, if you are purchasing at the event, you'll be able to purchase your spectator pass at this time as well. | ||

oGsMC and Boxer already knocked out too bad the current policy is to not reinvite past MLG-GOM partnership players unless they won the previous MLG + Show Spoiler + although MVP is still in GSL so he might not end up attending MLG Raleigh | ||

They will never have my financial support again. Following lengthy discussion it's apparent they only care about hard $ and nothing about customers. Supporting e-sports through MLG my ass, supporting their bank balance only. | ||

On Inside the Game, DJ Wheat stated that he wouldn't be able to come due to PAX, so that would leave maybe Day[9] and ??? Not sure if Husky could come out for it, and Mr. Bitter is in Europe... sooooo...... Just curious. Seems like its possible Tastosis will be coming out (I'll cross my fingers ![]() | ||

Supporting e-sports through MLG my ass, supporting their bank balance only. Can you perhaps explain why you feel that MLG does not care about the customers? I feel we do everything in our power to ensure that the customers have a good experience when either watching from their homes, or actually attending the events in person, after all, ensuring that our customers are happy is our primary goal. The only way to better our Customer Service is to hear from our customers, so please feel free to PM me with your criticisms or opinions so we can assist you. If you just go on the forums to bash MLG, without providing any explanation, there isn't really anything we can do about it. Thanks! | ||

What if it's your responses on the MLG support forum that have exacerbated the issue? Who is your superior? | ||
