I had a question. what if a back up player cant make it, or doesn't check this forum and realize he is now in the tournament? does it just go down the back up list until a player confirms?

For the both of you - when the tournament was announced it was stated it would be late night to early morning (part of the reason it takes place on a weekend). It is done this way to try and not conflict with other tournaments that may be running.

The time has been on the signup page since the day we announced the tournament. Getting upset about the time now is a bit backwards. If you cant deal with it, dont sign up and dont QQ about it if you did.

Hey guys! The tournament was chosen to be started at 11 pm (EST) because we got many requests for that time slot. We also wanted to avoid running into other tournaments running as well as allow foreign players a decent time to play, if they had access to a North America account. Please understand that by foreign players - I mean anyone not from the USA in this statement.

We apologize for the inconvenience, however it has always been listed on the OP. Only thing that changed was an hour by hour break down of the schedule and what was gonna be done when. I hope all/many of you will still be able to attend the tournament. I will see you guys later. Good luck to everyone tonight!

I didn't sign up, first of all. I'm asking why? Conflict is unreasonable, imo. If you have players who are signed up for multiple tournaments, usually organizers (erherm: YOU) are flexible to let them schedule accordingly.

A lot of the rules seem overbearing. I dunno how it is in SC2 with racepicking, but if it's anything like BW, you've screwed over a large chunk of players by saying they have to pick one race the entire tournament. A ToS? For a tournament? Why? You reserve the right to not notify players of a rules change? I understand not wanting to e-mail 512 players, but a post with a link in the OP should be sufficient.

I can tell you've never really run anything large scale before, which is why I question your judgment in running a 512 person tournament your first time out (you being Catreina, not Tesla). It seems you got a little overzealous here, and I wish you the best, but I'm telling you now - be prepared for the worst.

Edit: Catreina, take a page out of Tesla's book. When you're organizing a tournament, don't snap at people who ask questions. Other people might get offended, and for something with this many rules in place, you come off in a very unprofessional light.

Just as a point of fact - I ran the Oracle League (a Heroes of Might and Magic tournament website) with over 2000 players at its peak, I have run LAN tournaments, I am a Magic: the Gathering judge in New England, and have been a part of MUCH larger than 500 player tournaments in the past, online and offline. Your thought that I have "never really run anything large scale before' is intriguing, considering you have absolutely zero knowledge of what I have and have not done outside of Starcraft 2.

I will let Tesla explain the intricacies of race selection during tournaments, and other matters.
