Hopefully I'm on the right track.
BTW for the record I never intended to say that CSL should take precedence over UCPL or that the UCPL would phase out or anything like that; just that the players (or entire teams) participating in one should be free to participate in both simultaneously if they want to. I just wanted to point out that there were advantages to both leagues, and that they shouldn't be competing with each other over players.

Ah...I should've read more carefully. I agree...there are advantages to both, and teams should be able to compete in both if they choose to do so.

Agree with xeris- I had to drop out of the city league for IRL stuff :/

UC davis here =o it would be cool, we already have wii and xbox tournaments here every now and then so starcraft wouldn't be too far fetched

Nobody said you couldn't be in both, there was just discussion earlier about the subject:

do you guys just wanna join the CSL...? kinda dumb to have two separate leagues going I think CSL is going to be all colleges (basically whoever can get a team together) while the UC thing is going to be all the UCs. Whether or not the UC system is 12 schools or 1 school is up to debate in all sorts of fields so it's probably going to be controversial as well here. But based on the fact that the UCs are pretty united geographically (important from a time zone perspective) as well as culturally it's probably smart of isolate the UCs because they can run a league all to them selves. I'm surprised that Sunday nights was chosen. I would have thought that everyone has hw to do.
The part saying "kinda dumb to have two separate leagues," and "it's probably going to be contraversial [to have UCs join the CSL]," and "it's probably smart of [to] isolate the UCs" brought up the topic of whether or not they were going to be separate, and whether they were going to be mutually exclusive.
Anyhow, I think it's already agreed that the two things can happen on their own, side-by-side, and I only posted my last comment to clarify a misunderstanding, not to re-open the topic for discussion.
