Oh, lol. Well, one of the advantages of being a private company is that.. well, that information is private
. And, it's not kept that way because we like to keep secrets - but that is one that gives us an advantage in certain situations.
Sorry, 5k is well below the startup costs of our business.
Well, King and Worldwinner do not pay out 250,00-400,000 a day - I don't think. I believe that the amount of prizes won is simply being calculated as the dollar amount of prizes that have been won in the community - meaning if you enter a tournament and win a prize, not the amount you withdrew from the site.
Technically, withdrawing a certain amount is not the amount of prizes to their players, but every prize amount won from a tournament is.
Largest payout in a single tournament? I believe it was a 3-card Solitaire tournament in the $1,200+ range. Pretty nice right? I look at the skill gaming industry in to facets - the big time / the indie
Big Time - King, WW, Gameduell in that order.
Ok, so Indie is harder and changes pretty frequently given that there are people coming in and then moving to the deadpool - so the list fluctuates
Indie - SkillAddiction/Spootnic/Gamarena
I put us all three because it's actually kind of tight. Spootnic hasn't had jackpots like us in the recent months, but they've been acquired a while back so they have some cash running through it. Gamarena is getting big, but as a US player we can't play for cash so I'm not sure it should even be listed.
Sites no longer listed in Indie
UVME.com <-- don't think anyone plays there really anymore - at least, development has stopped from what I see.
Nowplayme.com <-- on hold, supposedly, indefinitely.
Gamebonus.com <-- gone to the dead pool
Skillground <-- Can't get to it, but hasn't had an improvement in forever
As you can see, it's got some barriers to entry for the skill gaming industry. We're moving and shaking to stay alive and keep bringing you guys some great entertainment.
