I am interested to see how they are going to go about arranging and casting this time though, the stakes are way way way higher than last time.

Blizzard has to arrange any maintanance of Bnet or dropping any patches around the GSL, and presumably the HDH as well now, so maybe that's why it's taking them so long? Or maybe I'm talking out of my arse.

Battle.net doesn't only effect SC2, and likewise crashes to Battle.net do not only originate from SC2. Promising that Battle.net will never crash or go down during HDH/GSL is an absolutely ridiculous thing to do. It's not possible.

This is probably why Blizzard is planning to give certain tournaments a Tourney Edition of SC2 or didn''t they announce that a long time ago ?

afaik the rumours about a tourney edition was that it incluced LAN so important events like IEM, MLG and GSL(later on HDH2 and TSL3) wouldn't get any server problems

or maybe we are all thinking with our ass

Blizzard doesn't even care about e-sports. It's so stupid that tournament organizers need their approval.

Don't even bother mentioning the GSL either, Blizzard backed GOMtv for the GSL to promote SC2 in Korea, not because they care about e-sports.

Hopefully this tournament gets up and running soon. It's sure to be epic.

Yeah, the matter is probably getting sent up by the Associate Deputy Senior Vice President of Customer Service's secretary right now.

its hard for me to imagine that what blizzard is doing with licenses is in any way legal.
It's like a carmaker requiring to have a permission before you race their car.

Ofcourse its legal... especially if you signed an agreement when you bought the car that said that you had to ask for permission before you raced it. But a better comparison would be to say that blizzard was the owner of a racetrack... then somebody comes a long and wants to set up a tournament on the racetrack, and money is involved in the tournie. Ofcourse the tournament arrangers would have to get permission from the racetrack owners.
