Signed up but since I screwed my placements I'm only in Gold right Now XD but maybe just maybe there will be a slot for me.
*EDIT* signed up as gold but just got promoted to Platinum today. will this change anything?
|
Player list updated, New names such as HuK, sMiNerO (3 time wcg usa finalist 2004-2006) and more, see the player section.

Got some big names coming in so even if you aren't playing it'll be worth the watch!
|

Thanks for everyone that is signing up, (sign ups are still going on, **if you cant sign up, then you know the sign ups have stoped**)so far over 60 applicants. I will be compiling the List of players tonight. We are still in dire need of tournament organizers. We have some, but more people in the back ground is always good. Please send me a PM if you would like to help.
Note: Be able to stay the whole tournament.
|

|

I'm fairly sure we decided last night that it would be somewhere between and hour and fourtyfive minutes before the tournament starts.

That would be great if you could be at least 30 mins early to the tournament. Gives us time to make all necessary adjustments.

Will being online B.net be enough? Should we meet on mIRC somewhere?
|
online will be fine, all communication will be done on bnet....god i wish we had chat channels..

I feel you.
Also, it may be worth mentioning that I (SiguR), had my regular Sc2 computer explode right before phase 2 started and I expect to get it back shortly before this tournament starts. If I don't get it in time, I will be going to a friends to play. There's always a slim chance something will screw up and I won't be able to get on. I feel I owe you the courtesy to let you know that there is a higher than usual chance that I may need to be replaced (though I still have every intention of being on and playing).
Anywho, this shit's gonna be craaaazy.

1) HuK ( Member vT, Many Acomplishments)
HuK isn't with vT anymore btw. He's with Millenium.

Great first post! You seem a little bitter. Did you not get a spot in this tournament?
I made no false claims when I signed up. I feel your thought process may be a little flawed. It's not as though I came in 2nd or 3rd in a low level tournament. Early in the beta, I won a tournament. The extent/cap of my ability has yet to be seen. By winning that tournament, how could I have possibly weakened my position? At the absolute least, I've proven I'm capable of playing at a diamond level (this aside from being ranked in diamond when I actually ladder. I only was allowed to play in the Micro/Macro tournament because placing in diamond wasn't possible and I hadn't played ladder after placing in plat).
For the record, the majority of the players in that tournament that got past the first round were diamond players, whom I preceded to defeat. How could that possibly work against me?
With that said, I am, without a shadow of a doubt, a complete nobody compared to a number of the people in this tournament. I make no claims to be the slightest bit capable of doing well in this tournament. I have absolutely no problem being replaced by someone better known if they are on the waiting list and it would please the community. I have no desire to make a tournament "less exciting" in order to boost my own ego.
Edit: I signed up because I get a rush playing in tournaments. I apparently shouldn't be playing in sub diamond tournaments, so what else am I supposed to be signing up for? I probably got a spot because I was one of the first people to sign up and I had a tournament win to my name, as opposed to any other equally unknown diamond player who signed up later and didnt have a tournament win to his name. How would it make sense to pick the latter?
|
so the tourney is today right? :o
|
how will you contact us for the tourney?
|
Tournament starts in 30minutes. You will be contacted online, please get online asap and be ready for invites asap
|

|

Oh, bo1s :/
|

Final Bracket + Show Spoiler +http://lsgamers.net/tournamenttable.html
Replays are all up (besides one that should find its way home soon). Sadly all besides the LAST game of the finals are currently unviewable (assuming you have patched up). Here is the link http://lsgamers.net/lsgwknd1roundof8.html - please bear with us on the painful colors. First tourney of many! Many thanks to all involved, those that participated and especially to those that donated!
edit: don't be fooled by the link, at the bottom you can move on to the next line of the bracket all the way to the finals so when you start at the first 8 games, you won't see any spoilers.
