Can we expect SHOUTcraft SEA or Europe in the future?

I'd guess that it's probably to not open the floodgates. If he lets Australians play, why not Koreans and so on | ||

Same as for excluding Europeans, Afrikans, Antarcticans and Asians. They are not in Americas. | ||

Because it's SHOUTcraft America What more explanation is needed? I am not sure I understand, you're saying it's called SHOUTcraft America, yet you will not let someone from Australia compete because he is not American? That seems kind of convoluted, I mean Australia is kind of like America, they both begin with the letter A for instance. Also they both speak english, kind of. I think a case could be made for Australia and America being essentially the same thing, just a matter of semantics. Also, it's been far too long since you and Greg cast together, it's still to this day one of the easiest pairings to listen to in the world of esports. | ||

They are kind of similar in terms of both scenes needing to be sheltered from better Korean players, and being weaker and less tournament rich than Europe. As might as well amalgamate them with the weakest region recognized by Blizzard. | ||

If you want a tournament for Australian players go ahead and create one yourself, I'll even donate you £50 for the prize pool to help you get off the ground. And please don't say that it's not doable, it has been accomplished in the past (SC2Improve for example). | ||

SHOUTcraft was invitationals before the original America tournament. We did a lot of Europeans in those events. | ||
