Not my problem you can't be bothered to look up how everyone thought it was too much and Sundances ego just overinflated his assets worth. | ||

I was clearly stating that comparisons between MLG and IPL/IGN are laughable because their income and expenditure of the two are completely different and one is propped up by a larger parent company. There is an economical reason why one is more expensive than the other, you failed to grasp that. Throwing in made up stats to justify your arguement is a tell-tale sign of clutching at straws. Also "supply and demand" you should look up what that means because esports is not at that point yet with a ppv model. It is irrelevant to the viewers what MLG/IPL's income are. If I go to a movie theater and purchase a ticket for movie "XYZ", do I give a fuck what the backing for the production company was? Will I say,"Oh! Movie XYZ was made by an independent company! I want to support them and pay double the price, even though it's complete shit!" Absolutely not. Welcome to capitalism bud. And you saying there's no such thing as a supply and demand curve in any market is literally laughable. Essentially anytime there is a demand, there will be a supply. Welcome to EC-101. So pumped for this event. Bought my player pass/plane ticket. Will book a room as soon as the info is released. | ||

Your comment sephuys kind of sums the immaturity of the audience quite nicely. Thanks Ya 28 year old married man with a child, I'm so immature, and you are obviously the one "generalizing." All we did was point out that MLG could learn something from IPL. Yes, IPL has a big company holding it up, however that has nothing to do with MLG and Sundance butchering the way they charged and handled the Winter Arena. Also I apologize for taking thread off topic. | ||

I believe it was the other way around: MLG tried something and IPL took notes and adapted. There is nothing better than learning from somebody's else's mistakes. | ||

Fact is not all organizations have the advertising connections, sponsors or marketting division IGN has. The comparisons to MLG make me giggle. Love to live in the delusional world some of you live in. You seem to be the one to compare MLG to IPL on a economic level. The OP never mentioned that they are profitable yet, in fact it's sure they aren't there yet. And as I mentioned in my previous post, IGN esports division can afford to be slower in its advance to paid content because it has a humongous financial backing behind. I don't know any number but from the interview of the director at IPL 3, the bosses gave them a large amount of money as well as numerous business connections without the need to make IPL profitable from the start. Because IGN is also a content provider, it can afford to keep people on payroll when they are not working for IPL because they can be working for IGN too (I have no confirmation on this) so that might be a reason too. All in all, IPL might be the saving grace for MLG. If IPL can pull good numbers with paid subscription, MLG will have to adjust both in term of quality of product and price range. MLG set the bar very high to test the market and are likely to drop the prices a bit for the next time. | ||
