FXOboss should be happy Leenock got payed this swiftly after seeing how slow some other organizations are with smaller prizes. It seems to me he overreacted hardcore and caused unneeded drama. edit; english derp herp 1. apparently, everybody thought MLG was the best at paying prize money with zero delay: ![[image loading]](http://www.rakaka.se/images/7774-rakaka_prize_money.jpg) 2. if he makes a panic, that might mean that mlg either did not specify as to when they would pay, or they busted a deadline they set for themselves. the first thing was something that everybody in this thread agreed on should be done and the second is just bad. | ||

Pure coincidence that he gets notified after he went public with the problem. | ||

It seems to me he overreacted hardcore and caused unneeded drama. edit; english derp herp Why should players have to wait for organizers to round up the money. This is directly what I stated in my last post. Tournament organizers should be going into tournaments with the checks already written and legal work as far as tax goes grounded. It shouldn't be an individual organism that runs on revenue hitting a certain safe place before pay out can be made. I don't care if 0 people attend and they take a 500 thousand dollar loss. The bottom line is these tournaments boast huge prize pools but when the time comes to collect the money its like pulling a fucking wisdom tooth. MLG claims immediate pay, yet it took over 2 months for Leenock and public outcry to receive the money. I also doubt Sundance had the check written out and Boss just so happened to post and wow it was all so magical how everything came together. No I don't believe that. It's not just MLG. This has been going on for 10 years since CPL started 100k prize pools for 1.6 and not paying. All I am trying to establish is organizers need to ahead of time take into consideration every cent that is going to be paid out, and subtract that from the expected revenue and immediately pay. And if the expected revenue is a complete farce, it doesn't matter because the organizers should already have checks written out linked to a bank account that has the prize money they are promising. | ||

But the thing is, MLG does pay immediately. This was the first occasion, at least since SC2 has been part of the pro circuit, that MLG did not pay the player on the spot. I understand your case of wanting players to get payed on the day they win, and I agree completely. But I feel FXOboss just blew up way too hard and caused way too much drama about it. If anything other organizations need to take a page from MLG's book and pay in a timely fashion. | ||

Listen while most can agree with the majority of what you are saying, the tone is all off I think. At the end of the day, it's a burgeoning scene with limited funds. Everyone is just trying to get by and the people you are vilifying are exactly the ones putting in the hard work and supporting the game, trying to take care of the players, and not making much money in the process themselves. According to the chart, only ESL should be taken to task because over 2 years basically means the money doesn't exist any longer. To every other organization, I say kudos. It takes over 8 months for the NFL to pay out Superbowl bonuses to owners so why should this be held to a different standard? Ryan | ||
