they have no problem listing the uneven TIO tournaments, i dont understand why normal uneven tournaments are bad for business, wgt needs uneven tournaments, E lies is so boring and requires no brains really to play
Because they give credits, not in the TIO tournament. If there's not enough players in a weekly tournament, they lose credits => they lose money => they are not happy. That's why I propose an UEL tournament for all tier. There will be enough players to spend balls, and for us it's better than nothing. And that will also make easier Corwyn's task with the UEL Ryder Cup qualifications :)
They only give out 2000cr each for the highest tiers. Just 40 players using their usual balls for 18 holes covers this cost, even if nobody hits OB or into water. I'm pretty sure they are achieving these numbers.
If UEL numbers are on the slide, it's most likely because WGT are losing their long-term players due to frustrations with all the site glitches. Removing tournaments and 100cr RGs, and reducing the prize fund sizes for the Champion tier events (compare with the TL tier for the monthly premium multi, and the weekly Nation) is not going to ease anyone's frustrations.
