Sorry for the delays on getting the TPA out, TO group found a way to get it sorted out and you should see 2 tournaments out for sign'up shortly (May 16th & May 23rd).

That said - I'm a little surprised... CC can't afford even a year's worth of premium to the winner of this edition? The event's a pretty huge commitment, worthy of at least that big of a prize.
Sorry for the late reply, lots of work those time with the tournament section...I just want you to know that your inquiry has been submitted in the group.
Hopefully will get you an answer soon.
Swifte, after TD budget review, we will have to wait the end of the season and review where we stand again. Thanks for your understanding.
To be fair, Swifte, in prior TPA seasons, credits were not given to TOs who ran TPA tournaments. If you factor that in, it should balance out.
Mad, I think we could still award the same GA medals, though, no?

The announced prize is 2500 creds. A year's premium is only 3500. I think it should be possible to stretch the budget by an extra 1000 creds.

I think so yes, that would be a nice "tradition"
Although a GC medal seems more appropriate for this than a GA.

The medals are for top finishers, Duk, not TOs. Also, in TPA4 and 5, 4th and 5th place receive the same prize.
