UKT LAN 6 Prizes

Posted by Myers at 18:18 24/3/2004.

With UKT6 coming up fast (just over 5 weeks away) I am pleased to announce we have some great prizes on offer at this event. Firstly Everglide have come on board and are giving the winners of both the Amateur and Professional tournament DKT MegaMats valued at £20 each. You can read my review of the Destrukt MegaMat here.

It is also worth remembering that the amateur tournament winners we will receive B&B accomodation for a night and free entry into the professional tournament the next day. Second place at the amateur tournament will receive free entry into the professional tournament the following day.

We have not forgotten those in the UKT Overload competition on Bank holiday Monday. Upset that your team did not make it into the weekend's competition, then perhaps £525 of cash prizes will cheer you up. This will be distributed as follows: 1st - £300, 2nd - £150, 3rd - £75.

This means that we are offering over £900 worth of prizes over the course of the event. We will announce any more news on prizes if and when we receive them.

Also we are preparing player ID for everyone that's attending, we therefore need everyone's photograph. If clan leaders could collect them together (preferably passport size) and send all 5 to me in one e-mail, please do not send them seperately. If it really is not possible to get photographs then we can take them at the event, but this could cause some delays.

Expect a map list for the event to appear over the next few days. In the meantime send your browsers to The Hub's UKT 6 page for information regarding accomodation and local pubs.

depends if they know what's coming up for those that make it into the finals then doesn't it? ;)

No points for Overload. I think next season it would be better to give away cash prizes per event and do away with the points system, it's too tricky. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

But the Overload competition will not grant you point to gain you access to the tournament that the two official UKT ones will, which sports much bigger prizes than Overload I think :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Points? Neither the UKT points system or the ranking system have been updated since well before the last UKT event I believe. What happened to that Zeni bloke? We've had two whole csgn seasons since the last ranking update. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

mat the two systems are different. The UKT LAN Championship points can be found http://www.ukterrorist.com/uktlanchamps/table/

Whilst Zeni's system is just a way of UKTerrorist to rate UK Clans. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Myers you still havent explained why the overloaded tourney 'appears' to receive the best prizes. It seems as follows;

The entrance fees (or some of the fees) paid by teams competing in the 1st 2nd and 3rd days all go towards prizes for teams in the 3rd day, while teams in the second day receive mats provided by a sponsor, not ukt, and some 'points' which to many if not most clans mean very little, you are even admitting yourself that you intend on dropping the points system thereby supporting my and probably others opinion that points for a tournament which may never take place, and a mousemat worth approximately the same cost as the entrance fee simply arent worth the great expense which many people will incur travelling to this event. (teams in the first day at least receive the mats, b&b accomodation and entry to the second day).

'depends if they know what's coming up for those that make it into the finals then doesn't it? ;)'

With the prizes as published and personally knowing nothing of just 'whats coming' for the finals (ie no mention of even a third place prize) why is it that you still expect clans to attend the 2nd day tournament? [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

so what, for the rejected teams they get a cash prize... and for the people in pro, well they get points, even if you come top 4 in the torny you wont get a chance in the torny after this when they give away the money that has been saved up for the big pot, so...

the overload reject teams get a chance of winning their money back... and more ontop...

but the pro teams put their money in, basically for it to go towards a clan who has some points already, and nothing for them if they have no point already, they just go home?

Nice. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Plus the prizes for Pro will almost certainly end up in the pockets of 4k and TAG. Whereas you've got a far more open single tournament, where plenty of clans could fnacy themselves to get the prize. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Ugh, you couldn't GIVE me one of those DKT mats.. you'd probably end up aiming like he does and thats just spastic!

I think giving UKT ranking points as prizes is a great idea.. shows how the pros play for pride/respect (god knows noc needs it) not prizes.

the point with ukt is that it rewards consistency. All these new clans that form and expect to have a shot at the UKT final tournament are kidding themselves since they havent done jack s*** in anything previous. If your clan has no chance of getting into the finals, then why have you applied to ukt6? And if you applied only to "prove yourselves on lan" - then why are you whining about a lack a prizes? Kinda simple to me. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Would be amazing if you could gain the sponsorship to do a monthly event in which each month had a £5000 prize purse for each one, a monthly UK tournament. And could still carry on some sort of points system, but not for qualifying for something, but for seeding, like in Tennis. So seed at next event depends on your form at previous events only and not just on the reputation of the team. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
