I agree it's good for the tournaments that we have out of state players coming, since it creates more money and teams. I would rather see tho a Oklahoma team winning the tournament instead of a Texas team.
Agreed but it is what it is ya know. We(Oklahomans) have to practice more so we can bring this out of state money in and take it :-D.
Edit: Btw what teams and players where at this tournament?
I'd like to see huge travelling numbers, and OK taking it
I'd say it's a mix though: fighters travel for skill, and money - I've always thought FPS gamers traveled more for money period.
We've got events that happen here - and the more OK local gamers share the word, and support events that they believe in - the more sponsoring that can happen.
Speaking of which...
I will personally guarantee - if you get me 100+ gamer passes sold at TnT and a tournament with at least 60+ gamers in a FPS tournament - I'll get 500$ sponsored to a FPS tournament next year. Get me 100+ - I'll get you above $1000 dollars...
...think I'm lying?
LAST YEAR TNT GAVE OUT $2000+ TO ONE TEAM OF HALO PLAYERS. Monitors. Headsets. It was ridiculous.
I refuse to allot that much this year - as evidently "anime convention" or "oklahomies" ran you all off, and only Sheezy's team SHOWED UP.
Get me a big turn out this year - I'll get you cash and prizes in 2012.
