How much money have you made in tournaments?

Including money matches.

It doesn't matter what sort of tournament, it could be SSB, Melee, Brawl, but it has to be your total amount, or at least what you can remember.

I've won $15 bucks and a cheap-*** plastic trophy. How 'bout you?

I've only been playing in Brawl tournaments, and I've made about $270 since it's come out. The weeklies I go to usually pays out $30/$15/$5, and there's the monthlies. There's been one monthly, and I got 2nd, winning $100. So yeah, that sounds about right.

I don't get how if I'm getting a consistent 2nd, why my pay doesn't compare to most of you earlier posters...

Bigger turnouts/prizes make all the difference. ;)

But really, I won a bottle of Gentleman Jack from my buddy because I finally beat his Peach.
That's like $30.

$4 in mms, I think around $15 in tourney placement, 2 gamecube games, 2 gamecube controllers, and a giant spiderman cardboard cutout. That's after paying around $200 in tourney fees.

I trust Lee, Yay, and Hylian though. :p

Me personally, about 50$ plus a cheap plastic trophy. (Local tournies obviously, I'm not great enough to finish in top placings lol).

Now if we want to go for ANY type of tournaments, I can proudly say I accumulated 2k$ for Halo back in '05 ;), all from local tournies too, since GA's Halo scene blows.

Now how much money did you all waste playing melee + brawl? lool
Remember that 2k$ I just posted about? ...... yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh. XD j/k haha, a more realistic number would be... about 1k$.

For melee and brawl?

I've made about 300$ off of brawl so far,
And around 500$ from my year of playing melee- placing top 3 in teams, some top 3 in singles, and MMs.

I've made a little over $800 off of Brawl so far, a large chunk of that coming from Texas Showdown.

In Melee I only made about $200 off of tournaments because I had Mew2King, Zanguzen, and Dav3 in my state. :(

I've made a decent bit from teams, but boy do I rarely ever get singles money.
