When an official tournament is announced, there is a sign-up page. The link to the sign-up page will be posted when the tournament is announced on the front page.

Posting again.

The 7th Official Tournament concluded on September 2nd and while tokens have been handed out, physical prizes like the SessileNomad albums, stickers, and other user-promised prizes were never given out. In addition to this, it was said that the postage would be taken care of by Sprite- on the 26th of September, and he is no longer available due to other priorities.

It has been over three months since the promise of prizes with constant updates requested, but said updates were never received. With that being said, I am removing the sticky on this thread. It can be assumed that the prizes won't be handed out at this point.

I wouldn't doubt it.

At this point, there's probably not going to be user prizes allowed anymore unless they can be provided at the end of the tournament.

That's honestly a real shame, SessileNomad albums would've been a really baller first place prize.

**TC_Halogen** · 01-9-2013, 02:35 PM

I'm still pretty upset about it, to be honest. It was the one reason why I tried so hard in the last official. =/

Ever noticed how stuff is promised, physical prize wise that is at least, not delivered and the users who promised these randomly disappear to not be seen again?
Makes me wonder why they promise prizes even though they can't deliver in the first place... it's bullshitting the entire userbase, basically.
(some people have always delivered the promised physical goodies, and major props to the guys who do so. they are obviously not part of this generalization.)

I agree that we should just stop, sadly, prizes like this, that wont be delivered, because tournament players will build up false hopes, just to have them crushed down -- And that's a shame.
I am for just delivering credits and tokens and other various on-site goodies that have always been delivered and in a speedy manner.

PS: This is not to be ungrateful, either, but if you offer a prize, you better deliver. If we have physical goodies offered again we should be able to legally bind these people to their word.
Don't promise shit you can't deliver, basically. (unless there is some MAJOR issue preventing you from doing so but most people will use flimsy excuses to get out of doing their payout.)

Also, I would like to take the opportunity to give thanks to m0de for at least giving the winner in each division the prizes he promised -- he spent $180 for the tournament, and that I am thankful for.

Most definitely. Completely great counter-example to my argument.
I just wish we had more people like m0de in these forums

-- I remember him having financial troubles and HE STILL DELIVERED. What a guy.
