A little while back I pointed to a story on ShackES looking at the popularity of a few games and mods and the communities that surrounded them. The gist of it being two games of the same popularity levels online can yield some pretty different results for a lan tournament. Well it just got proven. CPL was offering up $25,000 in cash for teams who wished to participate in a Day of Defeat v2.0 tourney. The turnout was hardly anything and the DoD event just got canned. Of course the $100,000 Counter-Strike tourney is still on though.

So when you see and hear those things about different communities actually having different attitudes (when generalized) it looks like there is some truth to it. What's this mean? I dunno its 6.15am on a Sunday.

update: Man I was tired. That story I linked from earlier explained it better, didnt mean to imply that CS and DoD were equally as popular, since that obviously isnt the case.
