Wow, just wow. And you say it will be updated? As a diamond leaguer (on NA anyway, got lucky with my placement, but still plat on SEA), the BSG is out as one option, but donating is fine by me. You mention "substantial" afterwards, but I'd be looking to pay $10-20 for such a guide, is that fair?
Also: how will we be receiving updates? Being alerted via PM when a new one is available for download? Or sent directly to an email of our choice?
Mhm... ok and when i want to buy a 1 month subscription will that mean that i will loose acces to the guide after 1 month and when a new addnon comes out or the guide will be updated i need to buy the guide again?
Also what makes this guide better from the free guides at Teamliquid? (They gor multiple guides for Master + players)
Cause i really dont wanna buy smth. when i can get the same for free and maybe even better...
Im so sceptical because i didnt really saw any recent posts or reviewa concernong the guide in this thread

substantial contributor (calrify this please, is it just strategy/quality posts or monetary contributions?)
it will be free for anyone whom i feel has spent substantial time of their own to help develop the sc2sea community. be it for any trusted tournament organiser, reliable caster for our events, prize sponsor or any donation above >$50, image designer, site coder, site moderator. sc2sea has had alot of help along the way and i feel this is one way i can give back.
Avelestar yea its not gonna be expensive, the cheapest option will be below $20. the one thats bundled with the discounted coaching will be abit more expensive but nothing crazy.
gerlan, wish i could give it for free but ive spent way too much time and also paid a decent amount for the content (even though they are my buddies i felt obliged to pay them as the content was really comprehensive and took alot of time to be written) so ill at least want to breakeven
anyway i feel that if we created a truly valuable product people loved and priced if affordably people will be more than happy to pay for it. And well at the same time it can be used as a reward for donators/staff on the site and also as an encouragement for more pple to enjoy the BSGs.
Honestly, I think that this is an extremely good idea to gain some revenue for the website that has been helping to push the SEA community closer. Truth is, maintaining a community forum/website is a really tough job, with the amount of time put into it, sadly, most of the site's contributors don't earn anything at all. Good things don't come free, and I'm sure contributors will be more motivated to bring the community more quality content when they see their work getting rewarded.
I foresee that this will turn out to be a success, and I urge all patrons of this site to give them the support.
Kudos to the sc2sea dudes and dudettes
