POT System**********
Most events have a standard setup - you get charged some money, they take some off the top and then put the remainder into the pot and sometimes you don't know how much that is...That can be dirty, we don't like dirty.
GPX does not do that. We have sponsored
Guaranteed Pots - That means the amounts listed above are what your getting no matter what happens...
Example: random gaming event gets 300 Players to compete in SF4 @ $10 an entry - that means the pot is $3000 - if the event does not take anything off the top. 1st Place takes 70% = $2100, 2nd Place takes 20% = $600 and 3rd Place takes = $300. If the event takes any fees for administration that means the pot is smaller (we wont start assuming how much events take, this could take all night and I can rant for days).
GPX and GAMME will be doing the Guaranteed Pot as listed above for each tournament.
AND we will also add 50% of every entry to the Pot!
What does that mean?
Example - 50 people compete @ GAMME in SF4, $10 Entry fee = $500 of which 50% or $250 extra gets added to the existing $5000 Pot = $5250
Example - 300 people compete in SF4 (basing attendance numbers on some of our tournaments from Boston, Texas, Indianapolis and Florida) 300 @ $10 = $3000 50% goes to the pot. So $1500 gets added to the $5000 pot = $6500.
you guys can do the math from there:
1st Place would take 70% = $4550
2nd Place would take 20% = $1300
3rd Place would take 10% = $650
Much better for the winners.
We decided this is the best way to show the community we want to give them a hype tournament with real money on the line.
We will be hosting other tournaments with other pots as well DDR: SuperNova and DDR: Extreme, Halo 3 / ODST, Modern Warfare 2, etc. However, we will keep the tourney info for our event pertinent to the subject matter of the SRK boards.
