We did this on a grand scale a couple of times - side bets, filling out brackets, etc - and it was awesome. But the logistics of getting people to play was very difficult.

Then we tried doing it as a single private tourney (like what I think you are suggesting) and did it once a month for a while. Participation dropped quickly and we just quit doing them.

I think we should do another though... how about after the league? Maybe if we hype it up and get some added prizes and maybe if some people record videos, we could get a nice turnout.

I'd be well up for this. If you're looking for an initial headcount - I'm in. If it does become a reality, I'll see what sort of prizes I can contribute.
