You can donate any amount you want. I donated 10 dollars.



yep but its badly presented, some people are not familiar with crowdfunding platform.
it should be made more clear that you can give anything.

Honestly what is 5000 dollars ? Nothing.
Pretty sure if you email brazzer about the project and explain it in number they would not say no.

Brazzers can't sponsor a WCS tournament because of a rule in the handbook.

Are we sure that HSC is a WCS event? That would be quite a bad call in my opinion (being able to buy a spot in a tournament should disqualify it from being WCS).

Well, you sir are a smart guy. I'll ask someone from Blizzard.

The International was crowdfunded (to an extent but still), the Chinese iLeague is entirely crowdfunded. It happened to other esports before why it can't happen to Starcraft?

Because this is seemingly out of necessity.

Hopefully it shows people that this game is still alive and has passionate fans. My $50 hopefully helps towards that goal. Plus now I can guiltlessly buy that nice HSC seat without feeling that they have abandoned us for Hearthstone.

Damn. Pretty impressed this is going to be crowdfunded pretty easily. Almost there after only a day.

Of course its going to be harder to raise money weeks after the community funded a tournament for a significant amount, wallets are not endlessly deep for most fans.

Did basetrade tv also have such a big jump from $1 to $100?
This is a big mistake imo. There will be lots of ppl who are not willing to pay $100 for such a tourney.

You can fund any amount you want. Don't confuse funding with perks

Edit: I wonder whether it's a good or bad idea to make the hotel reservations now already, though i'm guessing when the target is met the tourney is on in any case.
If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.
