Want to win some $$?
It's been a while since the last bracket contest, but we're just so excited about the GomTV Classic that we just had to revive the ancient art for the Round of 8!
We've got $25 guaranteed to give away for the winner of this competition - thats right, you don't even need to get all the games right to win in this contest!
So, how do I enter?
It's very simple!
Step 1:
Save the following bracket constructed by Pachi;
Got it? Then we're good to move onto...
Step 2:
Use your best judgment, voodoo magic or coin flips to decide who will win in this tournament. You must predict each matchup, blank entries will be disqualified!
Step 3:
Open the file with your favorite image editor and show us who you think is going to win each match by writing their name in the appropriate place.
It is your responsibility to make sure that we can understand your entry, we can't interpret it for you if its unreadable
An example can be seen here:
Step 4:
Upload your picture onto the interwebz using ImageShack, TinyPic or another upload site. If you need help, use google!
Step 5:
Pm me, Plexa, with your entries no later than 30 minutes before airing time (18:00 KST). Which means your entry needs to be sent to me before 17:30 TL time this Sunday! If you are a nice person, please use [img] tags when pm'ing your entry 
No late entries will be accepted; not even cash bribes will change this! So make sure you get it in on time
Prize Details:
- $25 will be paid out to the winner of this competition. Ideally this would be via paypal, but other methods (like pokerstars) can be arranged if necessary
- The winner will be determined by whoever has the most accurate predictions
- There can only be one winner of this tournament; therefore if two entrants have winning entries they will Bo9 to determine a winner! If more than two people have winning entries then we'll devise some kind of bracket to determine the winner. If such an event occurs, winning members will be contacted with more details.
That's it! This is meant to be a fun contest, so i trust you'll keep it that way! I hope you post your predictions here and your reasoning in this thread, just keep in mind that entries posted here and not pm'd will not be considered for prizes.
Goodluck!!
Plexa

To get the ball rolling, this is my prediction
|
|
|
Y not just predict the score of the final? Like ForGG over Flash 3:0? Ill fill in my bracket later.
BTW r these semis matches best of 3 or 5???
Im on the shuttle (aka bandwagon ^^) for Shuttle
|
|
|
|
|
forGG > Shuttle
Jaedong < Lomo (upset?)
Backho < Stork
Flash > Memory
forGG < Lomo
Stork < Flash
Lomo < Flash
Edit: you like my ghetto MS Paint job? BOOYA SON!
|
|
|
I think a ton of people will have the same bracket. Although there aren't many combinations possible in the first place but in each match there is a relatively clear favorite with maybe the exception begin the final of Jaedong vs. Flash. At least that's how I see it in my mind.
edit: I take it back, Stork vs Flash could go either way depending on who is feeling like being a champion.

so far i have one entry  and he didn't post here
PLEASE REMEMBER TO PM YOUR ENTRIES TO ME

I think Flash or Jaedong will have the best shot at taking this, but I feel like gambling with Stork. He's lost to both of the favorites in this tournament before in other important series, so I'm hoping he's learned his lesson by now.

Nono don't PM him he's lying. Posting it in the thread is all you need to do.

Lomo is fucking good, but Flash is better (I think).
|
Any1 know if the semis or finals will be Best of 5? Theyre now doing 2 matches a week for 2 weeks, then only 1 match for last 3 weeks?

everyone seems to think Lomo will upset Jaedong! :O
|
Way to throw your bracket^^
|
|
|
Deciding between Stork and BackHo was kind of tough, the rest was easy, I mean comeon? Srsly.
Edit: Shuttle has LAZER EYES. How do you beat that?
You don't. Thats how.

Best bracket EVER
|
|
|
ForGG will stomp Shuttle with ease.
Lomo will put up a fight, but fall to Jaedong.
Stork will show us some old PvP form and stomp BackHo.
Flash won't show his past dominance, but will take Memory down without much of an issue.
fOrGG will show off some skills in TvZ and stop Jaedong.
Stork will overcome Flash in an exciting series...
...only to be stopped by another first time finals player (much like Jaedong and Flash did to him), this time in the form of ForGG.
|
yes, backho will beat flash and jaedong will get his revenge
|
Forgg vs Jaedong = Jaedong Win
Stork vs Flash = Flash win
Jaedong vs Flash = Jaedong CHAMPION!

...Also, a lot of ppl seem to just be posting their predictions in this topic, instead of PMing to Plexa...does that mean that all of these posted ones will be invalidated, if they aren't PMed? o.O

I assume most people are doing the same as I, both posting and PMing Plexa.
And to answer the question, yes, any that aren't PMed to Plexa are rendered invalid.
