    To be honest all the discussion is pointless...that was the point of the vote for the 'members of the board'. I have no doubt they sit there most evening and just talk about this stuff! The last tournament I was at I was told that money had been spent on new monitors. I was happy with that. My opinion wasnt asked for or needed and they still managed to do something constructive.

    I do agree with capping the prize money, or at least take a certain percentage of the gate towards community funding. It breaks my tight fisted little heart to think of the amount of money certain members have put forward themselves for community stuff.


    Im kinda new around these parts, and to be honest after finally appearing at an offline event its clear you guys know what ye are doing.
    Simple as that.
    I was impressed when the uniform monitors/speakers arrived and when Doom (sorry man I dont know your real name :o never introduced myself on the day) set up his recording station I was impressed (and a little intimidated lol) at the professional way they whole thing was handled.

    Not licking arse (or trying to be a smartarse0 :P I just want to agree with what Sagat06 said.

    While ultimately the decisions revolving big stuff should be left to the committee, public discussion is always a good idea regardless. Multiple opinions are always good to hear even if they're not acted upon - someone might suggest something useful that the committee might have missed too.

    On the contrary it's essential.

    We're a community, we should be transparent and open to ideas and suggestions and debate.

    This I may have to go with. I dunno I just rather calling people by their name when talking face to face (or directly about/to them I guess), I feel like an awfull jerk going:
    "Oh howdy Gam3rPwn563 how are you" :rolleyes:

    then again I could just be an idiot in that respect.

    Nah, you just need a better, snappier nickname.

    My PSN's kikimaru024, but I just shorten it to "Kiki" and there you go: instant handle.

    Also Doom's real name is Doomybot.

    You need to also make sure it's easy enough to pronounce. Too many people get Linoud wrong. ;_; It's Linoud, pronounce the second part like you would the word Loud. Phonetically, it's LIN - OWD

    I'd use my real name, Ken B more, but I'm pretty sure there's already a Ken B in the community, so it'd be confusing. :P

    And I do think prize caps would be a good way to get money for the community. I think we need more monitors than consoles, but it is a good idea to get one community console with all the DLC on it, just to be certain that there will always be at least ONE console with everything needed.
