I think big tournaments are great, lead to lots of exposure, and everyone wins. As you point out however they also require lots of resources, sponsors time and effort to undertake. As a result a lot of the time they aren't really feasible (although we certainly HAVE had them, i.e. Dox cup) in the SEA scene's situation. Besides that fact, they are great at creating a big splash for 2-3 weeks, however it doesn't do huge amounts for our community for the rest of the year when the hype dies down.

As a result, I suppose one of the things focused on in this thread is idea's floating around of how we can get high viewer streams on a semi regular basis without dumping a heap of money into prizes. This can lead to the end goal of big tournaments, but we need to figure out the multiple steps in between to do it.

It's a tough question, and I think we'll need originality and something different to set ourselves apart, but if we wish to go it's something we should aim for.

I.e. An idea to throw around is the popularity of TL Attacks, where they have a guest star doing different things. Different showmatches with different personalities against SEA superstars each week would be pretty cool, and something different from the regular tournaments that take place quite often.
