With Zizaran's events, we have put a fair amount of behind-the-scenes development resources into improving capacity for these events. This has resulted in the capacity being increased up to 20,000 users for the most recent event. Zizaran requested the increased member limit and the event fees help make that happen. 

Also, we didn't want to talk about this too early as we're still locking in the finer details of these plans but we're currently working on a Path of Exile partnership programme, one of the benefits of which would be funding for private leagues. This is likely still a few months away but as many of the key community race organisers are aware, they're able to contact me/us any time and we'll do our best to support with what we have.
