Intel Extreme Masters: Singapore Website - Singapore Liquipedia - Intel Extreme Masters Twitter.___________________________________________________________________________________ Intel Extreme Masters: Singapore, 22/11 - 25/11The Intel Extreme Masters next stop takes us to the amazing land of Singapore, where once again the world's best gamers will battle it out for supremacy over their respective fields. The StarCraft 2 and League of Legends tournaments will provide a grand total of $82,000 as players from Europe, America and Asia duke it out for the top spot. If you live in Europe and are reading this thread, this is your chance to be a part of the experience! The European qualifier will once again be split up into 3 stages (detailed below). Stage 1 is for everyone, you can sign up and participate to then earn a spot in Stage 2. Stages 2 and 3 are mostly comprised of invites based on a ranking system. For Singapore we've also factored in players who qualified for China in order to give them the best opportunity possible for their previous feats. ___________________________________________________________________________________ STAGE 1 - 15/10/12Sign up here: http://www.esl.eu/eu/sc2/masters/season7_singapore_stage1/signup/+ Show Spoiler +STAGE 2 - 18/10/12+ Show Spoiler +STAGE 3 - 25/10/12+ Show Spoiler + (P) mouz.HasuObs - @mouzHasuObs (P) RoXKIS.TitaN - @OlegKuptsov (P) XMG.monchi - @monchiSC2 (P) Tt.WhiteRa - @WhiteRaSC (P) Grubby - @FollowGrubby (P) PandaTank - N/A (P) Ai.Tarra - @Tarrantius (T) M.DieStar - @MDieStar (T) aTn.ClouD - @ClouDSC2 (T) WF.KrasS - N/A (T) Fnatic.Naama - @NaamaSC2 (Z) VPBenQ.sLivko - @VPBenQsLivko (Z) Karont3.VortiX - @Karont3_VortiX (Z) Ai.HaNfy - N/A (Z) sYz - @sYzPRT (Z) Tefel - @sc2Tefel

Certainly hoping so too! I'm thankful that we've given them a good opportunity to in Stage 3 of the qualification process.

It should be noted that every European based StarCraft player is able to participate in Stage 1. All that is required is an ESL Premium Membership and a StarCraft II account attached to the ESL profile.
Good luck to everyone

What was the logic between not letting it carry over? Some of those were already granted Stage 3 last time.

I'm not an admin so I couldn't tell you the exact reasoning sorry. I would say though that, because each tournament is a different case and time has passed since the China qualifiers, a clean slate seems logical to me. The players and teams etc were financially reimbursed for anything they'd spent regarding China, so in this instance it's not like they've lost out on anything. Fresh tournament, fresh qualifiers, but just with that extra twist to those that put in effort before.

Did you give each player $600 or so? Winning that qualifier guarantees at least winnings of 600$, since last place in group stages are given that much, it's one thing a player who wins the qualifiers can generally expect.

I'm unaware of exact figures sorry : ) again, not an admin, just a caster.

I will try hard this time!

Still looking for more signups for the EU Qualifier Stage 1 !

I am from the US but currently reside in Romania; I can play here, right?

You can yes : ) people like viOLet regularly qualify through the US Qualifiers for example.

Am I the only one that thought IEM São Paulo instead of Singapore when looking at the TL Calendar? I sure hope so :D
|
Are the invitees for the next two stages listed anywhere? Can't find them.
Good results, btw, no upsets, everyone who I wanted to win, actually won (although fraer hasn't finished playing, hopefully he'll go through as well).

Damn, that's a lot of green symbols. If you take into account that almost all the players who got through stage 1 are Protoss as well, it's looking like WCS Asia right here.
If Pomi is invited, why did he play today, then? :D That's part of the "not 100% confirmed", I guess.

when is the NA qualifier?
