If you're in it for the money, just follow the stars. (*note that bronze cups won't appear near day of week to reduce spam and highlight important events.)
Major one time events Major recurring events / Div 1 or otherwise important TDM/CTF matches Smaller events
Other: Important CB events Special events

Because the bronze starts represent smaller events with prizes.
If 125fps and faceit decide to stop hosting daily cups, then there's no bronze starts left.
I think giving out ~30€ from 125 and 10$ from faceit is at least bronze-star worthy.
"About the prizes - should someone be interested in let's say a CA events (I know HoQ hosted some) and there were no prizes, I don't want players to look down on such events. If you're interested in competing and you see an open CA tournament, click on the link for detailed info about prizes, maps, rules etc
The post would look too messy with all that info stuck in it, it should only serve as an overview of current happenings in the scene."
Plus, the 125 cups don't have fixed money prize, some events are offering pro tokens, some are offering hardware. If you're interested in prizes, check the tournament info.
I'd like more input on this topic though, it does look like I've highlighted every single day, but what do faceit guys think about removing them from the important or relevant events?
That's why I was worried about even starting the whole rating system.
Does a duel player care about this TDM events? Do viewers matter or prize pool? Should prizepool be the only deciding factor?
I'd definitely give TDM EC a silver star, especially the quarters and final, many would disagree though.
That's why I'm looking for a balanced middle ground, the stars roughly represent the importance of an event based on popularity/prizepool. The faceit elo cups aren't even streamed, but there's up to 60$ to earn if you play them all. HoQ CTF is streamed and will probably rack up a lot of viewers but there's no prize involved.
not really. It has to be something worth watching.
Faceit sundays
Good tdm or ctf match, no matter if it is quarters.
something special that stands above the rest, like what 2 or 3 things you would watch no matter if it is the same day
First 4 CTF matches listed are div 1, TDM are Eurocup quarter which also involve top EU teams, not sure how to distinguish them between less important matches.
Glad you reminded me :p
I might miss some events, don't kill me because of it, instead send me a msg or post here so I can add it as soon as possible so people will see it listed.
125fps offers prize money depending on the number of participants, from what I can tell there's usually 10-16 signups, meaning ~3€ prize money each day, rounding up to ~15€ weekly.
Faceit daily cups give 4$ for first place, earning you 12€. Zowie has hardware prizes I think and faceit sunday cup is 100$. 127€ should be the final result.
Sky vs piGs isn't going to happen :(, Sky has been moved to div 2, .h will probably replace Sky but I don't know whether we play .h on Thursday 29th, I'll keep you posted.
Some people say there's too much? Nah! It's the way it should be, ALL the important/semi-important stuff in one post! Most important post of the week, no matter what! :)
and silver star = transparent
