Nope. Not having it. Don't start topics like this here. Find another political website if you want to discuss this kind of crap.

Well, in WWII the peer pressure was immense. Basically, in the United States if you didn't immediately volunteer for the military after Pearl Harbor you were somewhat outcast as a coward. Today, things are much different but in those days it was VERY serious. There was an interview in Band of Brothers where the former soldier describes 4 guys who committed suicide in his town for being rejected for service due to being 4-F.

I'm not sure what it is you're asking for?

The entire reason for Relic to offer prize money is in order to get a return on that money. This means they want the game to grow, and the best way for it to grow initially is for the absolute best players to face off against each other. This draws the most interest and viewership. Thus we have the ESL tournament with the best players obviously signing up (and winning). This isn't just some theory or anything. Other E-sport games have grown their playerbase (and thus profits) following this model. It only makes sense for Relic to follow it as well in order to get the best possibility for return on their investment.

Its like watching Tennis. Do you watch some local club players or do you watch Wimbledon? Yes, Federer, Djokavic, et al always seem to win there too, but it also brings in the viewership right?

Now I understand the desire for someone such as yourself wanting to play in tournaments you could compete in. Heck, I'd like that too...I'm not good enough to compete in these high level tourneys either. What I also understand is that for now, Relic isn't gonna invest in something like that until it sees a return on investment on their initial outlay. And even then they would probably have to be convinced an "amateur" tourney like you're suggesting could be profitable for them...and that's a high hurdle to vault.

That said, there is no reason someone like yourself couldn't organize a tourney if you think it could work. People have done all sorts of tourneys using this platform as a way to advertise. But I think expecting Relic or even Coh2.org to provide that tourney for ya is asking a bit much.

Not just no....

GARDEN no.
