wtf...do you not understand what remastered is? the whole fking point of their marketing campaign was to tell us that the old mechanics of BW are back. they've been telling us they haven't changed shit and that's why it is doing so well in getting folks excited. how could you possibly miss this? it's the whole damn purpose of Remastered.

Mondragon and Idra appear to have both turned down an opportunity to play. Not sure about if there were any other invites who could not make it. I will ask and let you know.
I do not think that they were originally going to do something like this. So the fact anything got up and running is great (particularly considering the time frame). I think it was a (very) last minute decision by Twitch and or Blizzard to host an event of this nature.
I do not know if blizz asked twitch, or twitch went to blizzard. Or if it was just a natural collaboration.
There is only so much coordination you can do with international visas without much notice. I was only notified last Saturday evening.
As to whether organisation should have been done at an earlier time? well probably. But anything is better than nothing and its great to see some love being poured back into broodwar.

papaz I feel like your post should be in its own thread and not in a discussion about an event. Seems really off-topic.

Gonna be a great event. There will always be players "missing" in these events (for instance Eriador!), but I think the participant-list is very good. Extra glad to see Legionnaire there, not sure everyone knows how good he was in his prime. Hope to see some reaver-kills!

I think TL should send TLO or Hotbid with Ret and make a report series much like Artosis did when Ret went to Korea to compete in the courage tourney. In the form of a show: Where Ret's last training, his traveling and winning the tournament gets captured. Titled: Ret's Oldboy (the mini series) If done right I could totally see this being beneficial to all parties involved. I have no doubt TLO or either Hotbid could easily provide needed comic relieve in the form of interviewing Ret's thoughts and feelings.
TL could even assign it's potential new BW Writers with the task to write a quick scenario for how this show should look like.
*Checks date for event* It's probably on way too short notice to make this still possible. + Show Spoiler +Sorry, I got excited for a moment brainstorming this ^^ Imagine this though, then following up with TSL season 3 to ride out the hype into more glory! It would totally get BW back on the map and fuel TL's engine to make it roar like a V12 super turbo charged. + Show Spoiler +I don't know shit about cars

Love that Day9 is a part of this. I loved watching his Brood war videos back in the day. Thanks for the info OP, I can't wait.
