Because when Rx- posted those results, the last few matches were still going on.

Top 3 were:

1. HRNut
2. Rx-
3. Radix

 

[Rx-]

I lost to radiX in winners semi-finals 1-2
I beat radiX in loser's finals 3-0
I beat Hrnut the first set of grand finals 3-1
I lost to Hrnut in the second set of GF 3-1

 

[hiROI]

orange soda<33
those were some epic matches with teeco and kenyu.

And Sensei and Walnut, your marios are too good
gg's everyone ;D

 

[Toneh]

yea gg's everyone. me and retro were surprised how far we got haha.
rx i lost my edge in mk dittos for now
i liked the tourny, but its too much pot **** for me here :[

 

[Gindler]

The pot **** isn't too bad. little more than gigs, but gigs doesn't give you papa johns

Oh and sensei, you got pretty beast and apparently I play better in friendlies than tourney.

 

[-Sensei-]

This tourney was good. Thanks to my super secret training, up in the mountains, my Mario is more beast than ever. Walnut, we should definitely team again, and work on some double Mario strategies. GG's to everyone and **** those brackets!!! Both my losses were to Rx-.

 

[vericz]

also it was $5 entry so i wasnt expecting a big pot

 

[N3XUS]

GG's people. I was hoping to do a little better than I did, but then again, this was my second tournament I've entered in a very long time. It's so frustrating to play against characters you've hardly faced before (like zoro's sonic) but it was a good learning experience. Guess I still need lots of match up experience so I can be more prepared for the tourney at gathering place games next weekend. Hope to see you guys there.

 

[Caps05]

ahhhh gindz we did so good

 

[Rx-]

Yea, I think the payout for this tournament was absolutely fine, and I would gladly attend these in the future...

They way I look at it was:

total pot for singles was about $100.
They paid out $40 in cash to the winners, and bought at least $20 in pizza for everyone. (Everyone got a slice of large Papa Johns hot fresh pizza for free.)


I've convinced myself that there is no reason that anyone should ever complain about payout.

To show this, I will divide smashers into 3 groups...

Group 1: People who will never (or never plan on) winning $$$ from a tournament.
-These people shouldn't care about payout for obvious reasons. They go to tournaments for the fun or for getting better, but payout means nothing to them.

Group 2: People who sometimes win money, but not always.
-This is what group I would consider myself to be a part of.
-These people shouldn't care about payout because placing top 3 SHOULD mean a lot more to them. I'm not saying it always does, but that it certainly should.

Group 3: People who almost always get money from tournaments.
-These people should never care about the payout of a tournament because they can pick and choose which tournaments they want to attend, and if the payout ANGERS them or something, they can choose to just not go. No one is forcing these people to go to tournaments.

The ONLY true payout complaint I can think of right now is if the payout is changed from what is said in the original post. That's a fair thing to say, and it's super ****ty when tournament hosts do things like that...



It's really late, so none of this will probably make any sense in the morning, but Happy Easter everyone!

 

[Toneh]

doubs total was $120 and they paid out $60 which is 50% pot **** :/, store didnt close down so no business was lost like gigs does --> They pay 70%. (which isn't a great % but reasonable in their situation)

Singles was $110 and they gave out $40. How is that not pot **** lol.
Usually stores hold game tournaments to get their name out there and bring in customers, not to hand out only 37%.
Just makes more sense to hold our own local tournies with 20 somethin entrants so we can keep the whole pot.

Fixed

Oh and 6+ boxes of delicious papa johns pizza, can't argue with those results

 

[Rx-]

I'd enter any local tournament that was held...



If I somehow got something going at UCF that was consistent and trustworthy, I could get a LOT of entrants. I'm thinking in the 40-70 range depending on how many fliers we put up.

Payout could be 90+% of the Pot, with the remain percent reimbursing the cost for Fliers. (Professional ones get a lot more people)

 

[HRNUT (Honey Roasted)]

get that thing together then rx lets have a bigger CFL tournament...it was some serious pot **** but they did feed us cant complain with that

 

[Zoro]

IDK but i actually went with chris.

we gonna be nastee teammates from now on man

ggs to everyone
my win char: metaknight
my fun char: sonic
