Liquipedia Feedback Thread - Page 32

On liquipedia we have divided tournaments into some arbitrary groupings to be able to set up some guidelines for each category, instead of each tournament. two of these groups are Premiere and Major tournaments. Premiere are tournaments like MLG Championships, DreamHack Winter, GSL etc, big tournaments with top players from all three major regions, big price pools, big production, big viewership. In contrast the Major tournaments are still pretty big, but just not as big. Perhaps not as high quality in the player base, not as big price pool, not as good production, not as big number of viewers.
Like take the tournaments this weekend they were all pretty big, but IPL4 clearly had more viewers, bigger production, a better playerpool, more price money etc than the gathering and copenhagen games.
Now when we do lists like the best result in a year on a team page we thought it best to limit ourselves to the Premiere tournaments or we'd end up with hundreds rather than tens of different abbreviations and icons and links.
Perhaps we're overly cautius and give contributors and readers too little credit for the amount of different tournament we can list. But for me at least at the moment it seems like the right choice.
