Like have a few €10 with gtds from €750 up to €2000, a couple of €25 and €50 events with €1500 upto €5000 gtds and then run a big €100 main event with €10000 and run a €10 mini main alongside it. Of course add in a few well structured events with buyin's from €1-€4 for the microstakes players
Like it wouldn't have to be a massive series with giant GTD's imo but would give the site an idea on what types of tourneys they could start to push the gtds on and then they could maybe add more larger tourneys to the schdule
If you look at the numbers of players in each buy-in level currently I don't think you'll get the GTDs you're after without them getting the rebuys in place. Aside from freerolls you rarely see 100+ players in any MTT other than a €1 so getting 10k at the €100 level is going to be very difficult even with Sats. The Sats would have to be generic as well you wouldn't want people to have leftover tickets for a series that is finished so you then end up with people using the tickets for non series events.
I'd love to see a MTT series as well but I imagine the focus is on the live events and pulling players from those sat systems into another system is just going to hurt both the series and the live event. It could work after the last UO event of the year but there are still UO UK events running until December. September or November look like the best time periods to run a 2 week series.
You -could- run big GTD events if you decide to run no/low value promos that month and just take the money you would spend on promos and use it as an overlay buffer but I expect this isn't going to happen either because the general ethos you get is that Unibet likes to give the money back to the losing players not give winning players even more money
Aside from all the above doom and gloom, +1 to a MTT series
