Re: NEW BUNGIE.NET POLL

In Response To: Re: NEW BUNGIE.NET POLL (Elan Sleazbagano)

: They should have had more choices: $30

: $40

: $50 - up

: I'd still pick $50. Hell, I was willing to pay the $100 for Halo50k (but I'm
: glad it will be less tho).

I agree, but I like that the poll so far doesn't have one obvious outcome. I expected the 'free' slot to get alot of hits (human nature) but I'm heartened that the 10, 20, and 25 slots are getting good responses as well.

There are a few factors involved (in my mind at least) that determine how much I'd be willing to fork over to play in a tournament:

1) quality of the match-types/games, etc. I'm not going to pay alot of money to play in a bunch of gametypes/maps that I think aren't fun and/or challenging.

2) quality of the venue. If I think the tourney is going to be run poorly, then I ain't paying to get screwed over.

3) if I win, will it have been worth it? Is there a cool prize? Money? Will it feel good knowing that I competed in this? Will bragging rights be justified?

There are more, I'm sure, but those above sound like the big ones to me. I would hope that a tournament that can give off a good vibe and satisfy those issues can get good revenue so as to fund it and keep it going. Think big picture.
