Ok, so planning on having a big tournament to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of Starcraft 2. It will be a $1,500 prize pool.
I'm planning on having it be a 32 player tournament. The top 8 from Saturday's tournament will be invited. The other 24 players will have to earn their place in a qualifier.
I am thinking first place will be $800, second place will be $400 and third place will be $200. Then I'll also give out a $100 reward for "game of the month" (ie, the most creative play or the best overall match, such as redarchon vs aLtAaron or pRoCobo's 28 kill colossus drop).
I won't start qualifiers til mid April. Between now and then though, I'd like some feed back on what I could do to improve things. For instance, the map pool has been raised quite a few times. Given that the qualifiers will be played over 3 months, problems might arise.
