bearodactylAs much as I would like tftv to be the main production stream for everything isn't it still the case that enigma just gets all of the twitch sub money and none of it goes to casters/production people? Seems like those who volunteer their time to this stuff would be better off getting at least some compensation from other streams like RGL or whatever other orgs
The money made off of twitch and YouTube revenue is actually so small. Combined with the basic necessity for a lot of people to use adblock on the forums to not get bad popups from the ad service we use; I wouldn't be surprised if despite having that as extra income keeping site servers up and keeping the 2 domains is still a loss for him. Internally monetization has been discussed briefly on certain stuff but at the end of the day people are doing tftv because they love the game. Rewarding people for their dedication would be epic but not something feasible at all.
Edit: afaik working with ETF and TFTV for 2 years, and next season RGL, compensation has not been a thing for a long time if ever for online stuff. I know with LANs the orgs look for what they can (for example staff camping at iseries/CPG and ETF helping with my train reschedules). It's not a problem limited to tftv.
