::I think these certainly are possible options as well, though I have reservations for option 5, mainly due to outliers such as Thunder Gaming's Thunder Smash series, which have large prize pools but only has one tournament considered a "major". Not to mention, there are many tournaments, especially in Japan, which consistently reach major/supermajor status yet don't have prize pools due to laws on such.

An issue I have with Option 1 is that it could be hard to discern which category the series should go in, especially in series' that span multiple games and have changed in size over time. Once upon a time a series may have been considered a "Major" for one game, but currently it isn't. Or, a series was mostly Regional except its most recent iterations have become majors. I think that overall '''Option 2''' is just easier and more practical, however I think it could still be useful and easy to add just the Weekly and Premier categories since there are fewer and they would hold less debate.

'''Lean Option 1''': I think there's value in categorizing the page for something like Genesis differently than something like MSM, we should think of good ways to deal with ambiguous cases like series that are majors for one game but not others or series that fluctuate between major and regional (eg Sumabato) but I don't think that invalidates the value provided in differentiating the unambiguous cases.
