Just a quick question: In the USA Cup tournament there are 1024 teams left i believe and i am confident that I will be able to win this weeks cup game which means I will be one of the last 512 teams. My question is when are the cup games worth 100k rather than 50k? I asked because that extra 50k may be the difference between playing Normal rather than TIE or CT rather than Normal. Thanks in advance.

you've got a ways to go:

Final Game: $ 300 000

Semi-Final: $ 135 000

Quarter-Final: $ 100 000

16-team round: $ 80 000

32-team round: $ 70 000

64-team round: $ 60 000

All lower rounds: $ 50 000

(from the manual)

Wow... Thats a lot lower than i thought. I think i may venture into the suggestion forums to look at raising the prize money a bit because winning the cup is only worth 300k? I think that's a bit silly, since you have to waste some enthusiasm and player game shape and probably a few games in order to do so. an extra 10k to Normal or CT somebody to get the the round of 64 just doesn't seem worth it.

The hard part is making it reasonable in smaller nations. Some nations with only 2 divisions only have 6 rounds of the cup. It's pretty hard to make the argument that you should get more than $300k for winning a 64-team tournament. I think that the way it is now is as equitable as possible, given the disparity in nation sizes.

Just imagine...
In Pakistan (with 4 active users) you could get $310k just for being a human manager. And the most expensive roster in the nation is $115k. So if you're the best team in Pakistan, you could survive on the cup alone for almost half a season. And that's ignoring D1 arena revenues (granted they're stunted by somewhat small arenas)...

Step one: cut a hole in a box.

At some point beyond that, give up this team and sign up for BB while you're inside Pakistan.

You don't choose what country you want to be in,it's the country you're currently living in.
