How long is the games/broadcast gonna be? 2 hours as usual, or longer? until all the groups are done, this is definitely going to go longer than 2 hours. | ||

Group A bracket Group B bracket Group C bracket Group D bracket Group E bracket Group F bracket Directions on finding out how to find out earliest results on DES: Okay, so all of the bracket pages have the same format. The 1st paragraph in Korean simply tells the players in the Round of 8, aka the starting group of players (◆스타리그 2012 오프라인 예선 A조 8강 대진표). A name will (or should) be bolded to indicate who advances to the Round of 4. The 2 names below the 1st paragraph are the players who are already in the Round of 4 (◆4강). While you refresh like a madman, names will appear next to the already existing names to tell who will be facing off against the player that was in the Round of 4 in advance (for example, in Group A, RorO's name is already in the Round of 4, but BarrackS's name may suddenly appear next to RorO's to indicate that BarrackS has advanced to the Round of 4). The text below the 2 names (◆결승) indicates the finalists of the group (thus, the finalists can be RorO vs. BarrackS. This is just an example. Don't take it to heart.). And the final text (◆진출자) indicates who advanced from the group. Only 1 player can advance. *Cue Mortal Kombat background music* To decipher the mysterious Hangul hieroglyphics in each link, for fastest results, simply copy a name, paste in the post comment box and hit the TLPD button! (Zerg icon pic box) For example, if I copy and paste 김택용 and then hit the TLPD button,  Bisu's name will magically appear. Voila! You can also use the TLPD search bar on the right if you're for some odd reason highly against copying and pasting in the post comment box. Be sure to search under the BW (Korea) search option though!The reason why keeping up with results for OSL preliminaries is REALLY DIFFICULT AND REALLY ANNOYING is because ALL of the groups are playing at the same time, so you'll have to refresh like crazy on EACH bracket page. DES and Fomos usually update faster than the live broadcast, and the broadcast flashes the player who advanced in some group's name really fast so it flies by in the wink of an eye, thus refreshing a million times is actually somewhat more efficient than trying to keep up with results on the stream. Unless they changed that annoying fly by results format this year, but I doubt it. I personally suggest opening up each bracket link in separate tabs so that you can refresh like a madman between each of them. Happy F5ing everyone! Wow typing that up took longer than I thought. Feel free to ask questions if these directions were unclear. Fomos hasn't released their brackets yet, but I'll try to post their links up once they have been. Be sure to check both Fomos and DES out since one site may be faster than the other. That results in MORE refreshing, woohoo! -_- | ||

Group A bracket Group B bracket Group C bracket Group D bracket Group E bracket Group F bracket Directions on finding out how to find out earliest results on Fomos: Well, it seems that Fomos's bracket format is much simpler than DES's. All the bracket pages have the same format as well. You can ignore the text "▶ 맵 순서 현장 추첨" at the top because it just means which map order will be randomly drawn on site. The text below that shows the players in the Round of 8, so to find out which players advanced, simply refresh over and over again Happy... more F5ing! *Cue ominous, eerie background music* | ||
