Money in Esports: Totalbiscuit's Blog "On providing improved ROI for sponsors"

Totalbiscuit shares some thoughts on the money side of Starcraft 2 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=316658 (Link Fixed, sorry about that)
I don't have any clear thoughts at the moment about his blog post, but I am a big admirer of TB's business decisions, so when he talks about money and Esports I listen.

Just FYI for those not familiar with it, ROI=Return On Investment, or in simple words what do you get for the money you spend on something.

Prize money in Starcraft 2, must read thread from TL!

Got this from Apollo's tweet

So for those who don't know me I've been a professional Starcraft 2 gamer for a year. Even if I didn't take any major tournament title I've been able to win a good amount of prize money; enough to have a reason for making this thread.
During this one year I noticed there's an huge issue many people are not aware of and I would like to bring it to public attention. The problem is very simple: when you win money on Starcraft 2 tournaments there's a good chance you will have to wait for several months to get it or, in worst case, you will not get it at all. This applies to big tournaments but also small weekly cups. Of course there are exceptions to this but so far my experience has been very negative and I'm still waiting for a sum of around 6000$.
