: Prize's are in CASH! We are going to use an equation to figure out what the cash prize will be. For example, if there are 10teams,
: 1st place = $1,000.00
: 2nd place = $200.00
: 3rd place -= $100.00
: If there is more than 10 teams and less than 20 teams, Splat will figure out what the total cash prize is going to be for the top three team.
The entry/paint prices seem reasonable.
I was just wondering why there is a big difference in payout for 1st,2nd & 3rd ?
If you place in the top three shouldn't you at least make your entry fee back?
Wouldn't offering a better 2nd & 3rd place prize entice more teams.
1st= $800, 2nd=$300, 3rd= $200
That is still a nice 1st place win.
Sometimes players pay more than entry and paint for a tourney. (travel,food,lodging.)
Just a thought......
