You can get a lot of free shit from donations. I have like 4 buds that I don't use and would be happy to donate every once in a while to these friday night tournys. And I think a lot of others in the community have extra pixels lying around. I think the prizes should be whatever donations you get split to the top 3 teams.
An entry fee would discourage a lot of lower level teams, who will just not play because they're essentially just going to lose valuable pixels. I think real money would make a lot of teams/players inaccessible to playing because they don't have paypal or credit cards.

Well, I'm not sure if anyone will be willing to donate to this tournament.

Killing-This becomes a really easy in for extremely new players to get their feet wet in a competitive but fun environment.
When you say new players, do you mean new players already in competitive or players wanting to make that transition?
Because if the latter are supposed to organize their own team, and IF the game mode is like a typical 6's game, how is this any different from playing what most people have been playing here anyway? If anything, this seems like a tournament mode that favors seasoned players moreso than someone pretty new to competitive.
So this brings me to my 2nd question, exactly what game mode did you have in mind for this? As a new player wanting to make a transition I'd find something like this more appealing:
PheeshSomething like this is the way to go...I think that's how FNF (friday night fights) was run back in the TFC days. Saturdays was SNSF (saturday night soldier fights) which was 5v5 or 6v6 all soldiers...I forget. SNSF was more fun IMO as it was a total change up from typical matches :)

I would rather lose my pixels and get wrecked than let someone else get your pixels dagger.

Soo I'm guessing Aus players won't really be able to participate because of the high pings?

I don't use my pixels much anymore so I don't mind. I'm sure there's others that are able to donate every once in a while?
I understand it's not a steady stream of rewards but we could make a huge pot for one of the weeks.
