So due to the lack of PvP in the past year or so I have come up with an idea to draw in more pvpers from ALL over. This suggestion is not very original as I have seen it used on the largest known PvP server there is, and it brings in THOUSANDS upon thousands of players to come try to win it. This would require the staff putting in a large amount of effort, but overall it would increase overall income of massive craft by a great deal. The idea is a large scale tournament, with the winner of this pvp tournament taking in a cash prize that could be anywhere from $100-$600. Where would this money come from you ask? Well the tournament could fund it in a multitude of ways. We could have an overall pot that papers pay to get in. Say we get 200 players trying to win, if each puts in $1 then the winner takes all $200. Another way we could do it is fund the cash prize through the server's pocket, and it would most likely repay itself. An average pvp tournament with a cash prize on the server I was previously talking about has about 2000 people play in it, and it lasts about a month. Imagine if even just 10% of these players stayed on massive craft because they see it is a very cool server with nice plugins and an awesome community, all of them get premium, boom! That is $1,400 if we take half of that, $700, and put it in the pot and advertised right, then trust me we could get a TON of pvpers duking it out on MassiveCraft.
We would need the following things for this to work, trust me I have been staff on a big name pvp server and I KNOW what pvpers will and will not do.
Let me know what you think!!!!

- A server and computer solely dedicated to this event, any lag could scare off all big name pvpers and potential advertisers
- Advertisers, pvpers following you tubers such as stimpy, tehacepvp, combodombo and many more, luckily for us I am connected with many of these pvpers through Skype and have played with them in the past and I guarantee if myself and possibly @Cayorion were to ask them if they could help us out advertising for this huge player versus player tournament they would be more than glad to help spread the word to their thousands of subscribers.
- A controlled environment. It would have to be a vanilla kit, or possibly kohi, not god apples, NO MCMMO, NO PREMIUM BUFF.
- Lots of time and dedication by the squire staff. If given the opportunity I would gladly take the helm on this project as I have time for the next three months to play around an hour or so a day, and can put in lots of work to making this happen.
