almost all of the invitational players have accept the invitation already, pretty sick.

EDIT: almost forgot, about the match format, how is the opponent being choose? like, for example, if Plexa feel like it, he would put me in the first match against Idra. Does it work like that?

i feel that its strage that a bunch of mediocre players im friends with arent on the list as well!

theres a ton of mid level players who arent going to accomplish anything and theres no objective way to pick which ones deserve it more, inc is putting up the 500$ so he gets to pick his friends over your friends. if you want to snub eg and let shauni lose first round in a tournament you can go ahead and host one yourself.

That's not entirely accurate, because the money wasn't provided by Inc but rather by a donor who donated it to TeamLiquid to use for this tournament. I don't think donating the money means you get to pick exactly who you want either (unless its somehow made clear at the outset), but that's another issue.

You'll have to talk to Kennigit and Inc to get the exact details.

Regardless, the $500 is to be used for the tournament.

2. This is a chinese free tourney. Sorry. The lag issues is simply too much for me, an amateur organizer to deal with.


So that means that Chinese from People`s Republic of China, Republic of China (Taiwan), Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, United States, Canada, Vietnam etc. are all excluded from the tournament? Gee, must be tough when your nationality determines whether or not you have lag issues.

But seriously, that rule needs to be clarified, lest someone takes it the way I showed above.

In any case, this is a preety good tourtnament. Lots of interesting names. This also represents a chance for good players who are not established progamers to prove themselves. I seriously hope a replay pack will be available.

We should clarify the "no hacking" rule too, because people could get it confused with physically going outside and chopping firewood. We don't want to accidentally ban people from heating their houses now do we?


People are more likely to misunderstand the rule I point out, especially considering some people often tend to show animosity towards the Chinese. On the other hand, nobody hates people who chop wood.

I'm taking whatever coverage I can get, because frankly, I'm busy working on this million dollar deal at my job. Early retirement is a good thing brotha man. - MessengerASL

This is such a classic stereotype invitation Tournament. ESC TOT blablabalbalbala.
I dont really care if shauni is not in the list or not.He is so hard to deal with but i bet he can win at least 40% of this players.

There are plenty of decent foreigners (some better than the ones on the list) that didn't get an invite. Shauni is good enough to pass the prelims, so why does it matter if he isn't invited? I don't think playing a few extra games is going to ruin his day, even if some "less deserving" people were invited.
As Unk. would say, why not?
