Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Seems to me that the worst case scenario is having wasted time playing iccup games that you would have anyway?
Best case scenario we have another money tournament.

I like the risk/reward honestly.

I think it's a nickname, or secret identity if you wish, of Kim Yong-il. While spying South Korea he was trying to find its weaknesses. He found out that starcraft is the second most influencing thing (after fans) for south koreans and the right way how to bring them on their knees. How's he gonna do it? He will organise tournaments with prize money to motivate top foreigner players to train hard and compete with koreans who he lets play in the tournaments so foreigners can adapt to their high level play. Obviously foreigners can't do much in starcraft, this is only preparation for starcraft 2. When it comes out the natural talent of foreigners combined with hardcore training habits will make foreigners totally run over koreans. With starcraft having a share of cca 20% on korean GDP the impact will be disastrous. Unemployment will grow as all the pro teams will be filled by foreigners, starcraft TVs will shut down because koreans aren't masochists like us and don't enjoy watching other of their spieces getting raped live. Under threat of national bankruptcy Lee Myung-bak will ask Kim Yong-il to unite North and South once again.

And so they all will hail to King Ansadi, the Abraham Lincoln of Asia.



Apart of this, he's working also on another project, check it out.

ondik: I loled.

Anyways lets go, why not. Worst thing that happens is people play a bunch of ladder games (which the people who would be playing do anyway).

Forgive us MessengerASL for being so distrustful, it's just a natural human reaction when someone offers something for nothing.

Ok, this is pretty creepy.

If I were in MessengerASL's place I'd offer a small cash prize, have that go down, pay out the prize, then up the prize. Would make everything go much more smoothly.

Maybe they consider $700 small? For the amount of work involved in running a league, I definitely wouldn't start with $50. :p
