Protoss whats wrong with all-kill Zvenn3n :D Nothing wrong with it, but if, say, a masters players used a smurf bronze account, he'd trash the competition, and that wouldn't be fair now, would it?

hmm I can see how you came to that conclusion

Obviously we would like it if someone would want to cast certain games, as this is the first season it isn't that large of a priority. If we do push for it later, it will probably be around when the playoffs take place. Cool, it sounds awesome! I love when there are tournaments for "normal" players, like the playhem daily, and SCV rush among other things 
Tell your friends! The EU division still needs players.

Eu sc2ranks says you're Terran so I placed you in the respective column. If it's wrong let me know
Forgot to add that, terran is correct :-)

I suppose it's possible that an entire team full of smurfers want to participate in the league just to destroy all the other teams, but it's highly unlikely, especially since we're the ones who assign the players to the teams if they didn't come to participate with a predetermined group that wants to play in the same team, which are the vast majority of the players in here.

The OP is updated with the _ NA DIVISION _ teams in text form, however if you want to indulge my hobby of apparently messing with the spreadsheet and making it look nice... feel free to look at the teams in the spreadsheet.
LINK: BSG League Roster
EDIT: Some teams are still incomplete at this time and reserves are not chosen. So this is NOT the finalized teams, though it will be similar.

Is it bad that when you changed something on the spread sheet, it kinda creeped me out. Did not expect it to be real time editing. lol

Hah, I'm used to it since I do lots of my group presentations on it and we edit it all at the same time.

Already added myself to the spreadsheet.
Won't be able to play till Monday, but since I'm on EU it won't really matter I guess
EU
KamaViha.665
Silver
Random (or rather switching races every other week to play them evenly)
Btw, would I have to choose Random for the whole season when starting a game or is it possible to change the race at any given time during the season? Perhaps if I tell my opponent at the time a match is being scheduled?

Is there a way where we can be informed of when a tournament start, when to practice, etc etc.

Once we have the details of when everything starts, we will let you know. As far as practice is concerned, I think that's something you more need to organize with your team.

I'd love to get involved if theres room on a team

wait wait wait, let me get this straight.. There is only 8 teams? with 1 bronze 2 silvers and 2 gold on each? And since all the gold slots are filled, and 90% of the silver slots filled, no one else can join? Awww man! Shucks

Who are the team captains?

8 teams would bring a season to 2 months length, 7 weeks of Round Robin then Playoffs. We may increase the size of teams, which would allow for more people in but as this is the first season we obviously don't want to get TOO ambitious and then not be able to handle it.
We appreciate your enthusiasm though! It's good to see that people are so interested in this!
