Game Tournament

So after LordKaT suggested the idea I started to think of some games that could possibly make use of this and what prizes could be done;

Games -

Starcraft 2 - StarCraft 2's multiplayer was specifically designed for e-sports, it has everything you could possibly need to stream it online. Starting up tournament brackets would require very little effort, if anything all you'd need is a caster unless you intend to do it yourself.

Call of Duty - Same as above, the general game for CoD tournaments is Search and Destroy. Could be team based, or you could make it 1v1.

Civilization 5 - I'd suggest for time sake keep the game mode to be Time based so only a certain amount of turns could be used, unless you want it to last longer that is, 5/10 people in a game, highest points win etc.

Team Fortress 2 - I don't play TF2 so I'm not sure what kind of e-sports is supported.

Prizes -

For prizes, it could range from very basic things like a signed photograph or be invited onto the stream.

Slightly more personal towards LK would be the offer of goods, offering to buy them a steam game up to a certain cost, time cards for a game (i.e. WoW).

Even more interesting ideas would be to offer a guest spot on a podcast for 1 or 2 weeks, joining you on an episode of TTT, Dr 8 Bit, Tabletop shop or whatever, you could even go as far as to offer a guest spot in the Wyrmwick campaign for a few sessions. It probably wouldn't take much effort to work a temporary character into a story, but that would of course be at your discretion.

These are just a few ideas, still not quite worked out the kinks but hopefully this might give you some ideas to work with.

Sorry, but until more people

Sorry, but until more people in the community start taking this idea more seriously, I will not be investing my time and money into the tournament idea.

That's fine dude, I actually

That's fine dude, I actually wrote and posted this just before people started suggesting retarded ideas.

I decided to keep it on in case you changed your mind, hopefully you'll revisit the idea sometime, I'd love to take part.

Does it really have to be

Does it really have to be prizes involved? It kinda takes the fun out of it. I also think team-based games are the best way to go (and the most fun). But yeah, a game tournament would be fun as hell ^^,
