Why are we voting? Because - we don't know what is best, and want to make it fair to those attending.
KEEP IN MIND:
Any extreme will scare people off. 0$ or 20+$ - people won't show because of it.
What does your money go to? The cost of 5$+? [whatever gets voted in] breaks down into 3 catagories:
- The location fee keeps our place to have tournaments in business. We are taking up space in an arcade, so 'we charge' a 5$ fee, that gets you 10$ worth of tokens to spend on Funhouse's various arcade games.
- If we do charge beyond a location fee, OKgamers reserves the right to take 1$ to make more flyers that promote the tournaments / events / getting the word out about the monthly events, and really - the entire site and all that goes on there.
- Other than what's stated above, anything and everything else charged goes straight to prizes for the game charged for.
Our perspective? We want you guys to have a good time - and if that means getting paid for doing a great job, so be it! However, we won't scare people off with huge fee's - this should be accessable to anyone that wants to play, for a basic modest fee; we just don't know what is best. Just so long as we balance these concerns, there won't be a problem. Gas costs enough for some, people will pay to play, but we don't want to under or over charge. So vote, and let us know what is best!
