MLG_Adam, is there going to be a championship with a higher prize pool than the seasonal championships?

No.

However, that is not to say we won't be doing anything else...

Hope they go to Dallas or San Antonio! Would definitely have a huge turnout! Can't wait to see this year. Also, those who are complaining about the prize pool have to remember that MLG is flying these players out, paying for their hotels, etc. This adds up very quickly.

This prize pool is only for the winter championship right? It might increase for other seasons?

Wow, you really up'd the prize money involved, that's awesome to see. You're near $100,000 when you include the arena flights and prizes, for just the Winter Championship.

And you have 3 other Championships this year? Plus these special events you're alluding to? I am really stoaked for MLG this year!

The flights, hotel, airport runs, etc for 48 players in a single season is a lot of money. These are not domestic flights, 3/4's (at least) are international.

It is over 100k in prize money alone per quarter, not counting T&E spend.

I'm still holding out hope for an MLG in Philly, but it might make too much sense. Amazing, central convention center with oodles of restaurants in the surrounding area, within a reasonably short drive of every major Northeastern city, incredibly cheap compared to NYC and Boston (and probably DC but I haven't been there in ages) and highly populated with young people.

On a related note, I really hope we get the other cities announced in a timely manner so those of us with travel restrictions can make plans with our jobs, school, etc.

This is absolutely amazing, thanks guys! Now I see why you cut so many people T_T

It looks really promising, should help the player pool a TON, this is fucking awesome!

In your list of items that make a ton of sense, you forgot to mention that PA (and more specifically Philly) is the poster child of Union labor rates for shows like ours.

Getting shadowed by union workers to run your show drives up cost exponentially.

I love Philly too
