    240k really is a lot of money. maybe cutting down the initial entry fee, but IF (and that's a big if...) this happens, it would require a lot of time and effort.
    It seems fun but if you really want this to happen, host this on your own for a while and see if after a while mods will assist you.

    All staff can handle this i believe. If they are called "staff" , then we should put our faith and trust in them , and believe that they can handle this

    Requires organizing, and a single game championship doesn't sound like much of a championship. Usually it's more like a tournament.

    Firstly, Andrew would have to manage a thread and 24 people would have to sign up. Secondly, there would be a lot of absentees just because it is bound to happen. People would get mad that they lost their spot because they were late, died due to "hacks" etc. Also, there would probably be a lot of unfair play used in the games because of the increased reward. Finally, camping would be more prevalent than usually, for the same reason.

    Basically, this wouldn't work because of all the additional work that it requires and the fact that only a limited amount of players can participate. In a tax back lotto, a potential 400+ players can put a ticket in, which is obviously much larger than 24 or 72.

    Because of the bigger reward, more camping will occur forcing Andrew to have to wait a long time for the sg to finish. It also makes him organize the players who signed up etc. I'm sure, more than 24 people would sign up, so what then? only choose 24 people? Host more games(even more work)?
