SIGN UPS ARE CLOSED!
We are well over 128. If you have posted here, feel free to show up in IRC and we'll call your name if you get put in.
The tournament will be 128 players and take place over the course of two days (Friday, Aug. 6th and Sat, Aug. 7th).
Ragequit.tv will be casting various games. If you want to be casted, make sure it is alright with your opponent, then ask us. There is no guarantee that your game will be casted, but we will cast as many as possible.
Ipp and Wolf will also both be casting games, they will be on the lookout for games in the IRC so mention casting and you could be casted by either of them.
The rounds will be structured as follows:

IRC Channel
All players will report into our IRC channel #ragequit.tv on irc.quakenet.org. Click for web IRC client. If you are not in IRC by the time brackets are being finalized (Starting at 5:40pm/2:40pm so be in before then), you will be removed from the tournament and your opponent will get a replacement or a bye. We will be doing a check before the final bracket is made, so watch IRC to see if we ask for you. If possible make your username the same as your in-game name. IE: My in-game name is Abyss, and my IRC name is Abyss. This will make it easier for us to do a final check! If you cannot get your name, try something close to it. Just some suggestions if you can't get it, Abyss_833 (Include your # identifier), or AbyssSC2 (Include SC2).
Race
Please list all races you will consider playing here, just out of fairness to your opponents. Race changing is allowed during the tournament, if it is listed here. Include Random in list of possible races if that is a choice you are considering.
Server
All games must be played on the US Server. No exceptions.
Disconnects/drops
The default choice for disconnects is a game loss. If a player believes that he/she truly could have won the game, he may provide Abyss a replay and request a re-game (time permitting.) If there is not time left, the show must go on and you will receive a loss.
Disputes
Disputes will be handles on a case by case basis. If a player wishes to dispute a game, message Abyss. Keep in mind the organizers and casters reserve the right to ban your face off for being bad manner and lifting your command center and hiding it in the corner. (Seriously, come on now.) Save -all- replays in case of disputes until after the tournament. We will request these if needed.
Map selection
Players will alternate between vetoing maps from the map pool. The player on the top bracket will always choose first, and both players will continue vetoing maps until only one remains. We encourage the play of non-blizzard maps, and if we notice non-Blizzard maps not being played often on Friday this rule may change to a preset map list for Saturday.
Ragequit.TV is proud to have prodiG on board, and will be using no less than five of prodiG's maps in the event! If you play on any of his maps or want to know more about a map, be sure to visit that maps thread! (Shown below) [This is what happens when I let prodiG write the thread, it turns into a giant advertisement for prodiG's maps. lulz]
