People want tc.
Yeah, big prizes are not such thing that can be given out on usual tourneys. But, at least, they has to be here too.
(To be honest, some announcements of big tourneys like "24h till big ES tourn" would be nice)

ST are ok, but not in every tourney. They are still special tokens, which were made special for events. Making this in every tourney and in every event transform them to usual thingy.

@Reta: his suggestion is not about how long average tourney lasts, he is about longer event - bigger prize.

There are two kind of people who go to the tourneys:

1st - people who want a prize
2nd - people who want to talk and just meet some people

for 1st ones the statements below are significant. At least, that's what I saw from last ES tourneys.
for 2nd ones prizes are not significant at all. But also, if they choose, they prefer something special.
