sucks that only three foreigners will be able to compete, they are all just going to get stomped by whoever wins the korean qualifier.

But I want to play =( Anyway, this is pretty cool news. Going to be interesting to see who will take the spots!

There will not be a Korean qualifier. One player will be chosen. I'll release who as soon as I can. Top 3 will be winning money, amounts will be announced a bit later.
As for attack site crap, no idea on that. We're trying to fix it currently.

14 players invited... 2 open tournaments for each region ... top 1 from each open goes to the regional tourney .
16 man regional tourney -> top 1 goes to Korea for the ESWC final, right?

ESWC "final" in korea is ESWC Asia Masters, which is slightly different from teh ESWC grand final. theres a few Masters tournaments each year.
