Remember when you guys said "Why don't we have more tournaments in EVE?". We agreed and thought, what can we add?

There will not be player adverts for this event at least. We are working on giving you a more streamlined action packed broadcast. |

why is it always big alliances that can only get into these and not people who do small gang PvP that don't have huge corps/alliances and 10bil isk lying around to enter the auction |

Technically it's now just limited to people who have 20+ plex laying around - alliance or not.

Because there has to be /some/ way to cut down the number of groups who'd want to enter, to something manageable. FuzzWork Enterprises http://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/ Blueprint calculator, invention chance calculator, isk/m3 Ore chart-á and other 'useful' utilities. |

This tournament has nothing to do with alliances whatsoever. What we do have is a cost of entry in order to ensure that those who are stating they wish to compete have enough skin in the game to take it seriously. Over the long term we would definitely like to have alternative methods of doing so but we simply don't have any other option at this time.

Also, if you are a small gang PVP expert there is nothing stopping you from being sponsored by an alliance or a corporation. Also, you can search for a team that has the funds available and is recruiting. If you are a top level player just start a search for a team or a search for funds. |

Steve is right to a large extent but I really want to spend some time talking about this as EVE tournaments and eSports are something that CCP Bro and I talk about at length.
In an ideal world we want to expand eSports to become a really big deal in EVE Online and allow players access to a host of tournaments of different sizes with a range of prizes. This is a long term goal and, if I am being completely honest, we have a lot of decision making and planning to do to make this a reality. We want to see tournaments involving everyone from small groups to huge alliances but this is will be much further down the road.
20 PLEX is not a bid every player can make and, as Steve pointed out, there needs to be a barrier of entry otherwise we would end up with a random drawing of hundreds of teams. We are aware that a tournament of this size will attract some of the best pilots from multiple corporations and alliances and we would expect that these teams will be sponsored by their respective corps and alliances.
This tournament is about celebrating individuals who can form a team, not necessarily from the same corps and alliances, and guide those teams to greatness.

If you don't want to be backed by a corporation/alliance, you can search for a team that has the funds available and is recruiting. If you are a top level player just start a search for a team or a search for funds. So presumably team names could be sponsored by Eve related entities as a form of advertising?

Over the long term we would definitely like to have alternative methods of doing so but we simply don't have any other option at this time.
I understand the need to cut down the amount of people who want to be in the tournament, but I agree that an alternative would be nice, as many groups of PvPers don't really stock up on ISK or plexes, and spend most ISK on acquiring stuff to fly. Perhaps an alternative method of getting in such as "if your group doesn't have the ISK, we have 5-10 auction entries that will be given as a prize in contest X" (for example a contest to make a video promoting your group of PvPers)
or something community based. The amount of slots given as a prize would have to be fairly small though.
generally, I just feel a tournament should be "Oh, we are good PvPers, lets enter!", not "Oh, we are good PvPers, lets farm PvE for 2 months to save up the ISK to enter!" :P
it's just the feeling that a lot of PvPers have that they want to PvP whenever on Eve, not be forced to PvE for some reason other than the normal ones (paying for accounts, being able to afford the ship you are flying, etc.) |
