I once sold my level 70 hunter for $200. I bought my momma a car and spent the rest on...pcp.

Yeah, I don't get that either. He must really dislike games.

it would cost 18k to repair the psychological and physical damage from playing wow.

If you think that, it'll cost that much without playing WoW.

$200K in prizes for all levels of the entire tournament. Part of that is the $75K grand prize, which I presume that the op wants to compete for.

$75K divided by 3 players is $25K. Chop out prize taxes and you are left with something less than $20K.

The top players and real cash winners will be professional gamers who do this 16 hours a day. They would also have class makeups and gear the are the absolute best for the tournament bracket.

It's a competition to see who can see on their ass the longest without taking a shower.

Reminds me of the South Park episode. LMAO :laugh:

I think these tournaments usually have the teams wearing gear from a pre-determined list, to help level the field. Might be wrong on that. But yeah, the cash winners will be people that do nothing but practice for entire days at a time, and use the best possible team composition.

First of all, what are you? Gears and specs noob!!! You know the standard.

Also, what are your team composition? I'm thinking DK/DK/Pally or Resto William Shatner.

Yeah at this point in the gaming scene it's impossible for a casual gamer to make any money in the big tournaments. Might be able to do it at some local tournaments but even then, most of the large city ones are attended by at least one or two good teams
