Czuch: I presume you are talking about the Madhouse Poll i am running to see how many (if any) Brains people have here, so therefore if they can afford to enter Brain entry Tournaments.

Well after 88 people voted, this is how it stands:

Option 	 	Votes
NONE 		48 (54.54 %)
0 - 20 		12 (13.63 %)
21 - 50 	4 (4.54 %)
51 - 100 	4 (4.54 %)
100 or more 	20 (22.72 %)

I think Brain Tournaments are fun, as they give you something to aim for (whether you pay an entry or not).
I remember when Fencer first started Tournaments here (WOW, that was a while ago lol) he ran a Prize one if i remember rightly, though i can not think if it was a Single player or Team one.

This should really go on Feature Request, but maybe it could get discussed here as it is about BrainKing itself, its structure, features and future

Lets find some more ways to acquire Brains that people can use for Memberships or entry to Tournaments and maybe even in the shop in future when it re-opens.

My first suggestion, is once every couple of months Fencer (or coan.net / Tanien) run a Prize Tournament. Maybe one game from each section. The prize does not have to be huge (50-100 Brains maybe), but it would be good to give those interested a target, and you could get a Achievement for winning one (or more site PRIZE Tournaments).

Anyway, that is my first idea and of course it is all up to Fencer.

I do not know about anyone else, but times are hard right now and going to get worse before they get better.

Would it not be great to play for a small Prize and maybe those who have nothing may get a little something for taking part
