I understand the competition ends Thursday but when will the results be announced? also, how long after the results are announced will it take for the BETA to be awarded. In short: When will the top 1000 be able to actually play in the beta? While I don't exactly when the winners will gain access, I am relatively sure one'd have to wait a couple of days. I think an admin said that they have to submit the winners' battle.net email addresses to Blizzard and they will then manually activate beta access for the winners. | ||

Debating just withdrawing support from ESL products altogether ... this is stupid. If he reports the win when it is a lost, please open a support ticket to have this fixed (include the replays inside) : http://www.esl.eu/eu/sc2/support/ If he does this too many time, he will get banned from the Versus system. | ||

I get the feeling I'm gonna need allot more. why would you think that? In EU it seems less than 100 people have more than 30 games played atm. This is just versus of course, but I'm pretty sure versus is the best indication anyway, not that many tournaments going on in these 5 days. | ||

If I'm favoured and I lose a game I never lose more than 10 points but I always gain more than 10 with a win. Prime example is the versus leader atm, <50% winrate but massively ahead of everyone else xD | ||

I mean if we work on averages there are aroound 190-200 countrys depending on how you look at it.. so on average a country should get 5 Invites. but it wont work that way I'm sure because some countrys wont have 5 people playing SC2.

Problem is maybe that also 0w-1l accounts are taken into account in the country distribution, meaning countries with 2 players and 100 games in total count less than 20 players with 20 games in total. But I'm not sure if there are even 1000 players participating in this. | ||

Debating just withdrawing support from ESL products altogether ... this is stupid. This happens.... ESL lets you "Veto" it which basically lets you put together some evidence (screenshots / replay etc) and send it to them to review and award the rightful person the win and points. I believe a penalty is applied to your oppoenent and if there is history with him he will get banned. I had this happen to me and vetoed it, got the win and points within 24hrs. My oppoent got negative 30 points for it. lol Every system has douch bags... dont let it get to you mate. | ||

Unless you saw you entered the wrong result afterwards of course, you'd be able to change it. | ||
