I would pay $15 or preferably less. I don't mind spending $25, but that seems way too high for the lower level teams. There's a lot of teams switching from UGC I noticed and as someone on a brand new team with basically no comp experience, we'll be sure to be near the bottom. Honestly I don't care much for the prize pool, since I don't really follow high level TF2 all that much and none of it is going towards lower ranked teams I reckon. Probably in the minority in that regard...

You can't just guess on what the best price is. What you know is that the best price is below ESEA (because frankly, you offer less features), and above the minimum to break even. Strawpolls are the last place to go for a correct price. I am willing to bet if there was a $1 option in that poll it would win as well. The majority of people are just going to pick the lowest price.
ESEA makes large sums, because they have market research on what price people will pay.

The amount of misconception (and buzzwords) in this thread is blowing my mind.

Together, as a community, we should be playing both leagues next season. ESEA is the only league in TF2 where, every season, there is a prize pot (even though it's small) and lan. CEVO will most likely be able to provide a prize pot, but not a lan. Lan is very important to have because it attracts the most exciting TF2. The matches come down to skill and coordination because everyone uses the same computers and has the same ping. Exciting TF2 makes the casting better because there is constant action. Good casting attracts viewers and makes the game bigger. The only reason I watched the International was because the casters made it entertaining. I had absolutely no idea what was going on in-game. At the moment, CEVO will not be able to provide that. A large decrease of teams in ESEA may even lead ESEA to drop TF2 all together. ESEA already dropped TF2 news articles for every division except invite. It's not likely, but I could definitely see it happening. Losing ESEA TF2 would really hurt the competitive scene. We need to support ESEA to keep TF2 alive and healthy and we need to support CEVO, so that they can, at one point, provide us with a lan. Once CEVO has a lan, we can fully transition from ESEA to CEVO.

Sorry about necroing this thread, but there hasn't been any recent threads about CEVO. And I feel its pretty important...
@London_Calling, we're going to announce registration for our 4th Season early next week. Registration will remain open for about 3 weeks, and then we'll be ready to start the first matches. Hopefully that helps with your planning.
If you have any other questions, just let us know.
Thanks,
