First Insight for the day... I need to learn Russian. ^.^
People that have signed up above have been added. Welcome, welcome.
In regard to the few questions about the maps... We are still finalizing the map pool, a 7th map will be added, probably Python, once the author is reached, or one of the more favored SC2 1v1 Ladder maps. As the rules stand, each map can only be played once during a series. So yeah 1 more map to come still.
The general SC2 set of 1v1 maps has been removed from the pool for this tournament unless where noted. Yes, perhaps the SC1 maps may not be perfectly balanced for SC2 but the SC2 ladder maps weren't perfect either. My belief is that the SC1 maps will bring about some interesting play not seen before in SC2, and by themselves are something new that few people have seen yet or played on in a big SC2 tournament. We want things to be legitimate, but we are also looking for fun. I have played on these maps, and they are fun!
In regard to not deciding to do preliminaries. You can consider this entire tournament a preliminary of a sort. The Micro Macro tourneys are going to be around for awhile. Our first post-release tournament, which will be a double elimination tournament, will likely take into consideration the results from this one. Top 64 players and etc.
Note: As the post release tournament is a ways out, nothing I just said in regards to it is concrete and many things could change.
EDIT: Goswser, Humansherdog and Haaduken have been added to sign-up list. Welcome.

Good catch! Fixed.
22 positions remaining! Note though, that the people on the invitee pending list and maybe list are not counted and get priority over any late sign-ups if they so choose to join before Saturday.
