Erm.... 64 people at five dollars each is 320 dollars.

You're giving out 30 dollars in prize money. This leaves 290 dollars.

Over 16 tournaments, this gives you 4640 dollars.

At the end of the month, you're giving out 350 dollars.

There will be $4,290 left over.

That's a lot of pizza for that lan event.

You should really elaborate the OP a bit more to make it actually look like it is not a scam.

don't you need to have blizzard permission to run a tournament where a fee-to-play is required?

this looks extremely sketchy

so I can give 5$ to have one chance in 64 to win 20$? no thanks. I'd rather organize my tournament and be sure to get 290$.

seriously, this should be closed.

Oooh! Sign me up!!! Where can I send the money?

@all the haters. This sounds totally legit. I don't know why there's any reason to think he's not going to turn around and and $4,290 on something to benefit the people coming to the lan... I mean... pizza is expensive.

I seriously need a sarcasm font.

Apparently he says he's 11 years old, if that's true he probably didn't think the numbers through rather than this being a scam. Or rather, this would be a really elaborate scam.

(still could be a scam though)

Ok everyone, I am being greedy with this, so it will be $100 for 1st and $50 for 2nd place and at the lan $300 1st place $200 2nd and $100 3rd. I also have to pay to everyone who helps out. And I swear I am not trying to scam you guys in anyway, so sign up if you wish.

Is it better now?

Ok, lol that post is my bro (who is 11) and his computer won't let him make a TL.Net account cause he posted he is 11 1st try. I'm sorry about that, recently I made one on this account for him. So believe me if you wish!

Why would people pay in to a tournament where you are paying out so little, with a horribly written out OP and very little reason for anybody to believe you are legit?

Come back in a few years when you make it out of (or into) high school.

still nets you like 3,000$ with barely anything put into tournament. also if you didn't know it's illegal to make a tournament where you charge people to enter without getting blizzard's permission

literally nothing that youve put here looks legit, cant believe this topic is still open

This guy is obviously an organisational genius. Sign up quick before spaces are filled.
