I dont want to come off like a dick I know this isnt your doing I am just curious how Nvidia thinks thats ok ? We should call the tourney Invited PRO / PRO tourney wouldn't it be? I understand it gives an AM a chance to come up through the ranks but in a bo3 or bo5 ideally that pro is going to win. | ||

Aside from that the tournament looks good; great prize, great sponsor. I also like the casting duo, although I feel as though they still need to get used to eachother during a cast | ||

That means there is going to be 500 players for the second phase of the tournament. Then it says the second phase will have 32 groups of 8 players each. That's only 256 players. why is that? Those were just rough estimates, final number of groups for each stage will be posted when registration is over. | ||

On top of that, there IS naturally a limit to how much time and work a tournament organizer can allow him to put into getting a country eligible to enter the tourney. Again and again we see countries being terrible at communicating these (pretty small) legal subjects, but with the big internetz, a lot of people are experiencing more and more inconveniences because of different laws in different countries. Great examples are sites like Hulu that actually wants to let people all over the world stream their TV-shows, but the EU having some weird rules and laws that in the end doesn't allow people in Europe to access their content. In the SC2 scene we're seeing these strange complicated procedures and laws interfering with things like players entering tournaments. To me it makes no sense. For example, how is MorroW entering an international SC2-tournament going to hurt Sweden as a country. It's absolutely laughable. I see it as plain bureaucracy that just needs to be fixed. Sorry for a potential hi-jack, not trying to OT anything here. | ||
