You know, the problem isn't actually the Overkrills. They were nice, but they were just once-daily tournaments with larger than normal guarantees. And seeing as the guarantees are usually about 6-10 players...it's not that much of a stretch.
I get that they aren't individually all that important to most people, but they are now literally the only midstakes tournaments in the world in the games I play. Or would be if they still existed.
Most of what keeps me at SwC is the support for non-holdem games, and the overkrills have been a big part of getting people to play them.
