I support it too! The
entire admin team would LOVE to give out thousands upon thousands of dollars in prizes.
However, a few things to note:
- Both price rises to the Respawn entry fee were because not raising prices was not viable.
- The costs of running Respawn are significantly more than the $3000 estimated in the thread.
- We don't pick the prizes sponsors give us. We fight for what we get already - we only got the prizes for CSS that we were promised
last week. We run too often for it to be viable for sponsors to drop a few thousand dollars each on our event.
-
Every single dollar that Respawn recevies goes to Respawn. Not a single cent of the entry fees goes to anything other than Respawn.

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.
The SGL business model is far from profitable and we're not going down that path. They also have connections we don't.
