It's only half the bracket, how are the seeds determined?
BYES are like freebies, automatically advancing to the next round. So seeded players for the OSL and MSL essentially get byes until their phase of the tournament.

Pachi, 3 possible corrections in Group A:

chavi[name] should be Crazy-Hydra
effort should be KizoO_major
H_Falcon_W is listed as 김경훈 (not in TLPD)

I'm just going off of the spreadsheet LilSusie posted. They could be typos there I suppose. Did you have a different source?

Thanks for the work.

On September 21st GOM will be launching their second season of the GOM Averatec | Intel Classic. 180 players from STX Soul, CJ Entus, Lecaf OZ, Samsung KHAN, KTF MagicN's, SKTelecom T1, WeMade Fox, Hanbit Stars, and AirForce ACE will duke it out for the $40,000 first prize. With so many big names playing this season it is sure to produce an exciting event for the fans and the players.

The event will be held every Sunday with exception of the 23rd and the 30th of September and it will be held at the GOM Studios in Mokdong, South Korea.

The players will be playing on the 2008-2009 Proleague maps: Chupung Ryong, Requiem, Andromeda, Colosseum, Raid Assault, Sword in the Moon, and Destination. The reemergence of old favorites and some new ones mixed in the tournament is sure to produce interesting matches.

The format will consist of the top 32 players from KeSPA's September ranking being seeded into the 2nd round (ro64). The non-seeded players will have to fight it out in the ro256 where only the top 32 will be able to advance into the ro64.

With a collective prize pool of $105,000 the GOM Averatec | Intel Classic is one of the largest tournaments in Korea. The 1st place finisher will receive $40,000, the 2nd place finisher will receive $15,000, the two losers of the semi-finals will receive $10,000 each, and the 4 losers of the ro8 will receive $5,000 each. Finally, to top it off the individual the wins the most games consecutively in the tournament will win $10,000.
