I think they should give away the money as an actual bonus to players that have shown good games/series.....
For example "Best match" or "Best Series"....etc

I think it'd be nice if the $5000 created some extra content. Tournament with the people who are already out, or showmatches between whoever, sound like a great ideas.

Sure it can go into the main prizepool but what's the use, really? If it was added to the prizepool in advance the scene and tournament would benefit from it as well. Maybe we would have seen a couple more big name players, some extra media attention, or more viewers. The money won't really affect these things anymore and it makes more sense to make the most of it.

Don't get me wrong, the whole thing can only be a positive. Adding it to the prizepool is not a bad thing regardless, but yea using the money to create content would be beneficial for everyone.

There's no real time to do showmatches. Either split it evenly or just top-up all the current payouts.

Normally I would give it to the top-finishing players but in this tournament I think everyone, even the ones who lost in the first stage, has contributed to making this a great tournament.

Therefore I think the money should be distributed towards everyone. Even if the ~150 $ isn't a lot, I think it's a nice way to say "thanks for making this tournament awesome".
Guys like Hasuobs and Moman who didn't make it past the first groupstage still deserves something for their casting imo.

They can always make a "team"-showmacth;
* Best of 7 or 9 > two team with 4 players each
* Best of 9 or 11 > two team 6 players each

The 8-12 players playing can be decided by an online poll, and the teams could be done by random pics ^^
I could take long, but not as much as 2, 3+ bo7 (1v1).



True but still, not everyone did something (not their fault if they are shy for one reason or another). Very few did that kind of "service".
Behind the scenes, u have great food and entertainment (poker and chilling in, what seems to be, the most friendly "VIP" enviorment for pro-gamers that tournaments ever offer). So getting money after this to, seems (to me) kinda of over doing it.
