The actual number contributed to the prize pool ended up being $1,527.95. Ozo has been MIA and unfortunately there was never a payout structure finalized before the tournament started. Rather than let this drag out or turn into a debate, we’re going to step in and wrap it up cleanly.

We’re using a standard, widely accepted tournament payout structure for the top 8:

1st – 30% – $458.38
2nd – 20% – $305.59
3rd – 14% – $213.91
4th – 10% – $152.80
5th – 8% – $122.24
6th – 7% – $106.96
7th – 6% – $91.68
8th – 5% – $76.39

Total: $1,527.95

This is a common format used across a lot of competitive tournaments (DFS, Poker, etc.) and felt like the most fair, neutral way to handle it given the situation.

If anyone has a strong objection, speak now - otherwise we’ll process payouts in the next 48 hours. These payouts will be gift certificates which are exempt from the 50% credit cap.

Appreciate everyone who played, and congrats to the top 8. If you’re thinking about running your own tournament, do it - we’re flexible and happy to help make it happen. Just submit a support ticket and we can work with you.

We really appreciate you doing this for us. Thank you!

Geez, thanks WISBob. That's a pleasant surprise.

No qualms, let’s get this over with lol

Top 8 have been paid out with unrestricted credits. Thanks everyone!

THANK YOU to the WIS team for responding so quickly and thoughtfully to this!

Thank you!

Thanks for taking care of this WIS. It's been a while since I bought some new teams and I just noticed the change in how credits can be applied (restricted/unrestricted). That's really annoying for long term users who have accumulated a lot of credits. Please reconsider this. It's really unfair to change the rules partway through the game. I think you're going to lose some long time customers because of this restricted use of credits. Please go back to the old system.
