The biggest problem I can see for the community is attracting "real" sponsors. Due to our location, for us to compete in most of the major tournaments would require a relatively significant expenditure from said sponsor(s). As our community is neither large nor (generally speaking) a demographic of neo-consumers we are asking for significant investment from sponsors with a high risk and a low probability of returns.

I believe the international events that Dox has organised in the past are a good way of attracting more attention to the scene, but still feel that the demographic, rate of growth and high expense need some significant work from the community before we see any major growth within the SEA eSports community.

I realise this could come across quite negatively but ultimately I would just like to see more idea's such as those brought up in the OP, specifically those around consolidation and purpose to help make the "scene" more attractive to sponsors.

EDIT: After the plethora of posts that were added while I was writing this, I would also just like to add that I'm also a big fan of community sponsored donations to send players to events and can say I for one, would be more than happy to donate some real amounts to see our best compete on the world stage. Next MLG?
