I want to provide a clear and factual update regarding the Nationals prize for this session.
The prize for the winning team has always been the Las Vegas trip package, which included travel money for five players, two hotel rooms for the duration of the event, and paid entry into BCAPL Nationals. This information was shared publicly before the tournament and was the basis of the prize structure for the session.
All preparations for the trip were already underway, including hotel bookings, entry fees, and sponsorship arrangements tied specifically to the team attending Nationals and representing the league. Because the trip was ultimately declined, the prize package could not be fulfilled as planned.
As a result, I am now in the process of refunding sponsorship funds and covering the financial obligations connected to the trip preparations. No cash payout was ever part of the prize structure, and the league will continue to follow the documented rules and prize descriptions that were provided to all teams.
In addition, the "loan" referenced in the text screenshots had absolutely nothing to do with the Vegas trip. These are two entirely different subjects, and one has nothing to do with the other.
Iโm sharing this to keep everything transparent and factual for the league community. If anyone has questions, Iโm happy to address them directly.
