The price pool is a total of 37 Bitcoins (110 euro in BTC)
27 BTC for the winner
7 for second place
3 for third place
Finals are going to be streamed in a moment :)

I think there would be more interest if, say, we grew the prize pool to 1000 BTC.  It needs to be a serious amount (even 1000 is a bit too low, really), and once we attract some big progamer, it would pay off.

We are moving to 145 Euro price pool in the next one and the final one in the series 185 euro (ofc payed in BTC). If a Bitcoin company are looking to advertise and are willing to pay a bit of the prize pool I am sure it can be fixed :)

Btw DeaD.Gaming are looking for Companies especially bitcoin companies to buy ad space on out team cloths, These team cloths will be worn by all the pro team members and admins on Lans and event that we will be sending them to under 2011. A good way to get a good amount of publicity especially if we make it far in the tournaments and cups. I am going to post up a post on the forums with more info later on :)

Can you bet on the outcomes?  It would be cool to have a march madness style pool.  :)

No, not yet it would be a good way to get to get publicity and possible take a % of the bet pool and make it into the prize pool for the players. I know there are several betting sites using bitcoins so if any of them are interested, I ma sure we can work something out :)
