ROFL btw why is norway so expensive, whats the minimum wage there?
Because they have a lot of money. Norway + oil = $$$
A lot of countries have oil, it's expensive because of how the wealth is spread. But of course, low population+oil is not exactly an obstacle. Will there be streaming from TG? It's in the works? Totally neglected? Or somewhere in between?
It's an on going process (sp?). It will be a stream, but thats all I dare say atm = P |

| They should lower the entry price for progamers, get Day9 and someone almost as awesome as him, and get a really good quality stream. Do it like DH did, that was one hell of a tourney. |

How nice of you to agree with me! Anyhow, I'm looking forward to the tournament. |

yup
Don't take this as a fact, but I heard that TG was to provide with some prices, never actually heard why or what it is all about.
Also the price can be payed out in hardware, not cash only AFAIK. Last edit: 2011-02-17 23:18:37 |

| I hope something gets setup for progamers so they dont have to pay any (or a big part of) the entry fee. Big prize pool but that entry fee is a turnoff to many progamers i would assume. Would be a shame to not see a ton of good players fight for that large amount of money. And im sure having progamers there would attract more regular lan nerds too. |

There was one private css compo hosted by hellfragger. But the Hellfragger league playoff for css was hosted by tg, and the pricemoney on there behalf haven't been paid out yet, and from what I know, it wont be either. |

| Holy crap that is one hell of an entrance fee. Unless you think you can make top3 I guess it isn't worth the effort to go. |

You are wrong, Hellfragger is the ones responsible for paying out the price. |

You go there for the experience, I've been there every year since 2008, and I still think it's worth it |

Do you have a source for that Roflhaxx? I think roddern played in the compo, so I guess he knows better than you(unless you are a TG - official or something).
Also, the casual player go there for the experience, but I don't think the same is for the pro-gamers that also want to earn some money. Last edit: 2011-02-18 00:14:23 |

| The source-tournament created an unique situation afaik, since it wasn't TGs own tournament. I know there have been some trouble with the payment there. But afaik its in the making = ) |

You are right Quakie.
They did pay out in cheap hardware, but the players didn't want anything to do with that. I hope they pay out, but I have learned by now that esport is a shady business, so I don't expect anything.
Nevertheless, I hope and think it will be a great tournament for sc2, looks like they take it more serious. Just need to lower the entry fee. |

Yea, hoping to see some real good foreign players come. But If not, we do have some good norwegian players as well so won't be boring. |

| The entry fee will most likely be 50% less, trying to fix that as we speak = ) |
