Payouts -
The Ultimate Payout System (UPS) has been revised for 2013 and will be used on all UFGT9 titles.
The number of players receiving a payout changes when a new entry benchmark is reached. A scaling UPS bonus will be used in order to pay out players who finish in the payscale at 4th place and below.
A Tournament With [X] Number of players will have payouts to the top [Y] number of finishers, which includes a [Z] UPS bonus used to payout 4th and below.
Entries [X] ———– Pays [Y] ————– UPS Bonus [Z]
8-63 ——————- Top 3 ——————- $0
64-159 —————– Top 8 ——————- $100
160-319 —————- Top 16 —————— $300
320+ ——————- Top 32 —————— $750
The top 3 players will be paid out of the main tournament pot as usual. 4th and under will take a flat amount from the UPS Bonus Pool.
1st Place – 60% of the pot
2nd Place – 25% of the pot
3rd Place – 15% of the pot

How does this work with EVO qualifiers?
What, specifically?
Im 17 can i still enter this tournament?
Players under 18 need a parent or guardian to sign them in at the event.
With a game like Injustice, which at this point isn’t confirmed (as far as I know) to be an EVO title, would you still gain seeding there if you were top 16 if the game was later confirmed?
That would be up to EVO if they decided to run injusice suddenly.
So will the UPS be paid to each person (such as top 8 will get $100 each), or will the UPS be the total payout (as in top 8 gets $100 split between 3rd-8th place)? Does the UPS count towards the pot pool or is it separate? Thanks
All the details are on the details chart.
I’m just confused on how the UPS is distributed; I’ve reread this part 3 times and I got my second question answered, but not my first. Is it distributed to each player or split between players?
“The top 3 players will be paid out of the main tournament pot as usual. 4th and under will take a flat amount from the UPS Bonus Pool.
1st Place – 60% of the pot
2nd Place – 25% of the pot
3rd Place – 15% of the pot
Payscale Details for 4th and below – CLICK HERE.”
As this says, from above, 1st 2nd and 3rd are paid from the tournament pot, and everyone 4th and under split the bonus as detailed by the chart found where it says CLICK HERE.
Alright, thanks! Can’t wait to go to this tournament!
Im still a little confused on the payout, for instance if there is 100 people competing at injustice what would the top 3 get, one other small question is there very many people signed up for injustice
The details are all right there on the chart and in the text.
