I know that gambling is a touchy subject, but I'm just considering ways to reward our players and breathe life into the scene. There are many ways it could be theoretically done. We already have that format for "designing the whole bracket," and could make an optional money bracket for that which rewards the top 100 brackets and sponsors the tournament. We could also do live betting with individual matches, either in top 8 or the whole day before as well, if the system was set up well. Something like 10% goes to the victor, 10% goes to the pot, 10% goes to the tourney organizers, and 70% is given back to the betters. Those are arbitrary numbers; I don't know what the ideal format would be. I'm just offering the idea. Heck, if our community built the technology to make this happen (we have some wonderfully motivated coders here), it could be something that becomes utilized to support many fighting games...
