Date auctions are an immediate and visible influx of cash. People knew how much you raised, and there's nothing proprietary at all about hosting a fundraiser like that. It's the perfect storm of bullshit and drama: People running it see dollar signs, people participating hope to have their egos stroked off. Feelings get hurt. Things go bad.
They're also pretty easy to come and go from as you please. A tournament requires you to be there the whole time. A TT tournament is the same way. Making money requires excitement and date auctions deliver them.
Speaking of stroking off my ego, I would love to do the television (or I guess linkshell) circuit.
