Pops contacted Tri who pitched it to ESEA, I was told they turned it down though and didn't see the value in doing it.

tfw your company doesn't see the value of plastering your brand name to any person the owners happen to play with or against.

tbh im flabbergasted, it's pretty close to free marketing

fuck esea dude, this shit irks me so much because there is literally no reason not to do this, every other league does this and they all benefit from it.

side note: I remember reading this post about a streamer who would get more average viewers when they put "ugc plat soldier" in their title than if they put "esea invite soldier"

i swear to god esea's plan for tf2 is to just let tri do whatever he can to keep the league functional. if there's ever a bug which breaks the client's ability to run TF2 they'd probably just let it die

vulcfuck esea dude, this shit irks me so much because there is literally no reason not to do this, every other league does this and they all benefit from it.

it irks me because it makes no business sense. making a wrapper for the API isn't the most time consuming thing and there are plenty of people who would make an ESEA brand medal for ESEA for pretty cheap (if not just their league fees/Premium comped or something)

it'd be like if you owned a wal-mart, someone comes into the wal-mart and they give you like 45$ and you give them a special wal-mart shirt except people actually want to wear the shirt

it's minimal effort with plenty of benefits, AND they're the only competitive event without one.

may be reading between the lines but i'm almost certain by this they mean less of "we see no value" and more of "we don't want to." The value should be pretty front and center, given how much medals have bolstered attention to projects that would otherwise never be known to any average player.

On a more optimistic note, if the community were to concept, model, and pitch as much work as we can put in firsthand, is it possible esea would meet us halfway and implement the rest?

I wonder if part of it is not wanting to deal with the inevitable whining from CS players when we get something they don't for once

FUNKeIf the community were to concept, model, and pitch as much work as we can put in firsthand, is it possible esea would meet us halfway and implement the rest?

I'm down to make a concept sheet with a pitch as to why it'd be a good idea and put it into a Powerpoint or however it needs to be pitched. That being said, I don't want to waste a modeler's time let alone my time if ESEA is 100% not flexible on this.
