Some of these players are random players or pick other races according to maps in these tournaments
Because there are no random icons on TLPD I decided to give them the race they played most matches with but add all the races they played behind; if all races just an R

I could not find the scores anywhere . I must say Canada team looks very
impressive. The two teams have 3 really good players each USA: Maynard,
Soso and Jolly. Canada: Grrrr, Crexis and BOO! but Canada also have Kain,
Stratus, Expo and Thor who are all better than rest of USA perhaps with
the exception of D23-Gad and MAYBE +Lokus+. Shockwave and 88fingers are
about the same and 88fingers is Canadas worst. Who is Ghandi anyway?

That's it for now, I'll most likely add more stuff in a new part later.
A question I got in my blog:

But this is really awesome as well -.-
The most important now is to store the results and organize them. I've provided links to my sources and you'll be able to find battlereports of many of the matches there. I may add other stuff later, but since this hasnt been organized and stored anywhere on TL as of now the data will be prioritized. For matchreports on the battle.net tournaments go here:
http://web.archive.org/web/19991127225327/battle.net/ladder.shtml
You'll find them under match-summaries. Unfortuanatly some of the links are broken.
For PGL matchreports go here:
http://web.archive.org/web/19990829010919/www.pgl.com/scoreboard/s4_sc_boxscore.asp?match_id=128
Replace the number last in the link - "128" with other numbers (in decending order is my best advice) to find other games, I must warn you though that some of the links will be broken.
For Kali vs B.net matchreports go here:
http://web.archive.org/web/19990417225511/www.gamers.com/starcraft/bk-reports.asp
Same thing here, some of the links will work, others wont. Try your luck.
As for the Canada vs USA battlereports, unfortunatly that site does not work with waybackmachine. FuzzyTheBear wrote some incredible reports on www.starcraft.gamegurus.net/fuzzy but they cannot be found. Personally I remember a few of the matches and I've given a short summary of the Grrrrr vs Maynard match before here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=177510¤tpage=2
* Feel free to add this data to the Liquipedia if you want.
EDIT: Added some information about prizemoney in Battle.net BW season1, 2 and the World Championship. Also added the same on PGL season3 and 4.
EDIT2: Removed Jolly as Tiranosaurus aka. Tiranosaurus aka is )DL(M@rch also aka []]V[[]II[]]V[[]II. Also added maps on some of the matches in Canada vs USA#1
