Konu: $3000 World Championship

I am wondering how many people would pay a $50 entrance fee to play for the World Championship Qualifying event here on BrainKing?

I would not participate, of course, but the winner would play me for the title.

As soon as the person wins, they get the $1500 second prize money, since they can do no worse than this. If they beat me, they get another $1500.

What do you guys think? Would you pay to play?

I might. But I'm hoping that maybe the top 10 could get a little bit of return, somewhat like in golf, so there is some hope of a return even if you dont make it all the way.

I would like to play but I currently have no extra money to pay. On the other hand, the situation can be better on September :-)

I certainly would play!!! I think only the top 2 players should get money, but I'm sure if we got 200 or more players in the tournament that we can have an alternate winning formula prepared. September isn't that far away but i think $50 is a steal of an entrance fee to win this kind of money! Also, I think Ed's offer of playing him to win an additional $1500 is very generous and we would be crazy to turn this down.
