For those who are potentially up for coming over, and indeed the wider issue of people being reluctant to put money down for an event they mightn't be able to make myself and some of the other admins have come up with a workaround of sorts. As I casted about 16 hours over 2 days last time, I didn't participate as a player, same with other admins as we like to eat and such mundane activities.

Decided using RNG which will be showcased on stream #Transparency | ||

I can not stress this enough, if you're coming to compete, bring earphones. Not headphones, earphones. You really don't want to be borrowing these. | ||

22 x 25€ = 550€. I have used to see players pay max 60-70% of the prize pool and LAN/organizer pays the rest | ||
