I support this.
With better prizes the amount teams will most definitely grow.
Even with the current prizes the cod4 comp attracts around 12 teams (on average 4 competitive + 8 casual teams).
At the moment the rest of the AusCOD community can't justify coming down to a BYOC comp (with $35 entry) to win 5x $50 headsets.
Have a look @ SGL Lan in Sydney. They manage to get the right sponsors to be able to give away 5x $250 graphic cards for their 1st prize cod4 comp.
Honestly, with better prizes the community will start taking this seriously and could possibly see 8+ competitive teams coming down to play.
