I can't believe this. There's people out there putting together a tournament for the lot of you to watch, making up an evening of good, free entertainment and 50% of the replies here is "why isn't X in this tournament". Get it through your head: when there's an invitational, there is going to be a shitton of people who are not going to be invited. We can make a complaint about every single one of them but that doesn't really set the mood for a fun night of BW. There's a number of factors that might result in a player not being in the tournament. "Not getting an invitation" is only one of many and even that factor can have a large amount of reasons behind it. Aside from that, people might be out of town that day, busy studying for school and whatnot. The point is there is no place for you to be arguing over this. You can take this tournament and enjoy it and if all you want to do is whine you can take it somewhere else.
Respectfully, get off your self-importance soap-box. It seems only natural LRM)Choosy would be invited to a random playing tournament when he specializes in race picking..... So too would it be natural for Nb.Lossilohi? Does he not play random in 1v1 and 2v2? What is so special with Michael's offracing? Does he play TvZ instead of ZvZ?
Why do everyone think LRM)Technics offracing is so good? I am ignorant.
Why does Draw not play more when he is one of the top five Protosses?

Michael actually does play TvZ... and all offraces very well. iccup.com --> CHEESEKING

I rmbr, first two times I played Michael was on ladder, him playing Terran. Two games, two different cheeses. I wonder where that name comes from;d

Update: Bakuryu replaced by Choosy. Bakuryu stepped down.

There is no rule that forbids chatting. I don't have problems with trash talk either as long as they keep it to a "ok" level.

guys lets make love, not war
i give my spot to choosy, gogo choosy~~
reasons:
1. i expected this tournament to be without random specialists, but now that there is a whole bunch of random specialists, my chances to win a game with my D- level offraces aproaches 0 like no tomorrow.
2. choosy recently won the gambit allstar and is also a good random player, he deserves this spot more than me in my opinion
3. i hope choosy wont be sad if there is no enemy left for him in gambit today, just saying

I thought this wasn't as much about skill as it was about seeing people flop about like a fish on land playing a race they don't know :p

I'm just glad to have a BW tournament to watch, and the fact that it's random makes it very interesting!

Wait, you've never played him? You should check out his lurker/ling play, it's pretty sick.

Race Picking != good random. People normally do only 1 matchup i.e TvZ if they are Z, so normally they would do ZvP ZvT TvZ, now with /RandomSelection they could get ZvZ, PvT, TvP, etc. That being said, these guys at least have good skill with their alternative races so they do get somewhat of an advantage, but I think people like Michael who ladder all matchups all races have the best shot at these events. Also, I am currently not playing in these events(even though I just got back from about a month break of gaming) and I declined a few offers because I am not as good in streamed events as my ladder games so I need more practice before I can actually win.

Thank you for the invite, it should be a fun tournament. Good luck to everyone

Thank you soo much for that game, one of the better i´ve seen in quite a while.

Point: your post is moot @Sky, and opinions are opinions @both of you, but facts are facts, and you should take the time to learn them. Disclaimer: My last post about not having certain players there. If you took the time to ignore your bias, you'd realize I strictly asked where not only the best players in foreign BW are, but some of the best ones who have the ability to play random. On GosuGamers ELO (only available accurate one) #2, #4, #5, and #15: Michael, Kolll, Choosy, Pike. I do realize Michael was subbed in, specifically not inviting the LRM) players. Regardless, I'm still going to watch this tournament due to the fact that I'm a random player, and love niche events like these, as is clear by the small tournaments I've hosted in the past.
Since the internet is you're life I was expecting a detailed response/analysis etc, really don't have the time for this, but just pointing out your flaws ..
+ Show Spoiler +Sziky - sas
Ace - UED
Kashu - sas
Michael - SL]..

So you're breakdown of the teams is wrong. As for the races, I meant their main races obviously, but don't someone as blinded by spite as you would understand that. As for the rest of what you said, don't care/remember.

waste of time talking about who's in what clan blah.
it really doesn't matter if it's not hosted by LRM line for me, that's all.

I didn't really want to involve myself, but since Sky name dropped me as bias without any reason to do so, I'll give my opinion on some things that were said.
I don't care who participates in the tournament just as I said, one player I most wanted to see of those who weren't was Michael.
You guys are saying that LRM)Game is bias for his team? Of course he's fucking bias to his team, he's the leader... The only reason he's posting here is because you guys are bias against LRM which is a known fact (Made more obvious for anyone who would debate this by your posts), if you weren't bias he wouldn't have any reason to defend his team.
So, yeah... Please don't name drop me in things that don't even involve me Skye, I already had asked you to remove it... By not removing it + name dropping someone who wasn't involved you're looking to create drama (Also fact, why else would you name drop someone who doesn't even want to be involved?)..

To be honest, everyone should just stop please. Its really unconstructive to argue anything here. I bet this is amazing tournament and that organizer of this is intelligent enough to make it fair to everyone. Can't wait to see some random action and specially chats that are allowed!
Jumperer d+ cheese everyone crap out!
