Our own event, run the same way as everything else here: the prize pool, the entry numbers and what it cost to put on all get published afterwards, whether it went well or not.
No date set for the next Cup. When there is one, it appears here with the format, the prize pool and the entry link, and it goes out in Discord before it goes anywhere else.
We would rather leave this blank than leave a bracket up from an event that finished months ago and hope nobody scrolls.
Small, fast, and open. It is not trying to be a circuit. It exists so there is something on the calendar that we control and can publish end to end.
No invite list and no seeding by reputation. Sign up, get a slot, play. Rosters are locked once the bracket is drawn.
Run and finished inside a day so nobody has to hold a weekend. Times are announced with the date.
Entry count, prize pool, what it cost us to run, and what we got wrong. It lands in the monthly report like everything else.
Prize pools in this scene have a habit of being announced and then quietly not paid. Ours is published before the event and reconciled after it, in the same report as everything else.
The pool is covered before a date goes out. No raising it off entries and hoping enough people sign up.
Winners paid inside the same reporting month, so the payment shows up in the report that covers the event.
What it cost, what it returned, and whether it was worth running again. Published either way.
Dates, formats and entry links go to Discord before they go anywhere else. Council members get them a day earlier again.
