Development and Perception of the Sinjska Alka
Oľhová, Ivona ; Otčenášek, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Nedvědová, Milada (referee)
! Abstract ! This paper presents Sinjska alka, a knight's jousting tournament that has been held for the last three centuries in the town of Sinj. The paper aims to enlighten even a layman as to not only the particularities of the tournament, but also the region where it is set: the region of Cetina. In this paper, I have strived to put the development of the Sinj alka itself into a broader historical context. It not only pays special attention to the proceedings of the tournament proper, but it also focuses on the accompanying elements (the festive procession, Alka costumes, Alka tournament arms and organization of the Alka Tournament Society). The paper is supplemented with historical and contemporary photos that should bring the visual aspect of this famous Croatian tournament closer. !

Sociology of PC gamers and its overlap into the "offline" world based on the Blitzchung Controversy
Sadovský, Samuel ; Tremčinský, Martin (advisor) ; Tesárek, Jan (referee)
In October 2019 the gaming world was "shaken" by the so called Blitzchung controversy, an incident during which a professional player of the videogame Hearthstone Ng Wai "Blitzchung" Chung was penalized after he supported the Hong Kong protestors during a live inteview of an official tournament. Chung was basically denied the basic human right of free speech. Considering the importance of this incident in the context of the gaming world, it is a unique case which showcases the potential existance of the causal relationship of games → real world. This study showcases relationships between the gaming world and other nongaming areas and subjects (education, government, politics and others) which are presented using selected studies and cases which are further expanded by the case study based on the Blitzchung controversy that chronologically describes observed phenomenons and characterizes participating actors. Structured interviews with selected respondents supplement the case study findings. This work mainly draws from theories that target gamers and the gaming world and tries to find answers to questions connected to the influence of the gaming world, it's potential as an environment suitable for political and other discussions and relevancy of gaming communities in the local and global discourse.

The Prize Money Distribution in UEFA Champions League
Scharf, Šimon ; Janhuba, Radek (advisor) ; Kuc, Matěj (referee)
Football is one of the most popular sports worldwide, thanks to such popularity huge market evolved around the sport and thus attracted economists' attention. As a sport, it also represents an ideal environment for testing various hypotheses of contest theory. In this thesis, data from the UEFA Champions League are used to evaluate the prize money distribution. We begin our analysis with primary characteristics of the contest that are fundamental for the contest designer, for example, the heterogeneity of the contestants. In the main part, we assess the incentive effect of the prize. While this phenomenon was previously studied on data from individual sport, we explore this topic in the context of team sports using the data from the knock-out stages of the tournament. The results show prevailing evidence in support of the incentive effect of the prize. Alternative models are also provided to check for robustness and they mostly confirm our results.
