Yes. The officials wouldn't lie, would they? On June 17 2011 03:54 FlaShFTW wrote: doesn't any one notice the...  MajorProgamerlol. REACH HWAITING!!!

Or does it stands for Professionals and Amateurs? Yes, Pro-Am stands for Professionals and Amateurs, as both are competing this time in the preliminaries, hence "My Starleague" and all. | ||

Yay for visual representations! Behold my marvelous MS Paint skills! This example will use Group A's players: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/ow4o1.jpg) As you can see at the bottom, 2 players each face each other to advance to the next bracket. The 4 players in the higher brackets, Killer, sKyHigh, Brave, and Really, get byes and face the winner from the lowest brackets. From there, the players face each other to advance to the Round of 4, and the winners from the Round of 4 then face each other in the finals. Whoever wins the finals advances and receives a spot in the Round of 24 Dual Tournament. Only 1 player is able to advance from their group.You can apply this same format for the other groups as well. For example, for Group B, the 8 players in the lowest brackets are Sonkwon,  Kim Ju Eup, BByong, Lizzy, Saint, Speed, By.hOpe, and GuemChi. The 4 players in the higher brackets are BaBy, Sun, Classic, and Action. The 4 players in the higher brackets face the winners from the bottom brackets.This information was just added to the OP as well in a spoiler. | ||

Can't wait for this. Pity it's in the middle of my working day. Work's overrated though, so I'm going to be ninja following this all afternoon lol. Would love to see the Bee-suit advance a long way in this OSL. Time will tell whether he can get over his mental block when it comes to the individual leagues. | ||

A semi-pro is someone who has their pro license but isn't on a team yet Effort is kind of the opposite. He's on a team but hasn't got his license back yet. I think he technically could have competed in MySL, but didn't. | ||

Yes, this event is going to be broadcasted and streamed today. The information was on the OP as: Broadcast date & time: June 17th 10:00 KST. You also can see it in the right sidebar in Upcoming events: [OSL] Prelims. To find a stream, simply go to the right sidebar and click on a live user stream under [OSL] Prelims when it starts. Only select games will be broadcasted due to the large amount of games being played at the same time. All groups will be playing today, I believe. | ||

Thank you for that, I didn't know if it was a stream on here or a special website or media, thanks again for the clarification. ^_^ | ||
