nerkulThey're still the same people who pulled the bitcoin crap, so there's no reason for ESEA scams to stop happening. Rapists don't stop raping, scammers don't stop scamming.
iirc the guy who pushed the code out was dealt with.

Increased overheads and inflation are all fine and dandy, but ESEA still prides itself on league fees going directly to prize pot (or so I think is still the case). They raise the fee, we should see a direct increase in prize payout. They neither addressed the league fee increase, nor spoke of increased prize payout. Which leads me to believe league fees no longer go directly to prize pots, which is pretty shit.
Although, prize pot breakdowns haven't been released yet, so maybe there is still hope?
Regarding the increase in league fee.

Yeah but it's not like they're allocated evenly. A lot of our league fees probably go to CS players
Mmmm, I wouldn't be so sure. cs:go had so many fucking teams last season in open alone.
Last years total cash prize pot for tf2: $15,840

Lets say for ballpark we only have 7 paid players per team (obviously this isn't always the case, sometimes more).
S14
Open: 60 teams | fee: $8 | 60*8*7= $3360
Intermediate: 25 teams | fee: $12 | 25*12*7= $2100
Invite: 10 teams | fee: $50 | 10*50*7= $3600
Very, very roughly $9060 raised for ourselves by TF2 league fees. Let's say since there are usually floaters and such, more people paid than 7 per team give another $2k raised by ourselves for padding. That's like $12k we raised ourselves, and TF2 prize pot saw $15,840 in S14. Depending on whether TF2 actually helps with some sort of sponsorship or advertising revenue, its even possible we see more of the cs players league fees than they do ours.

wasnt the prize pot higher because of the bitcoin scandal
tf2 probably didn't get any of that money but idk
