Round 1 will start at 1:30 p.m., and we will allocate roughly 30-45 minutes between rounds to play your matches. If you are not on bnet/irc or otherwise don't reply to an admin 10 minutes after the start of the round, you will be disqualified.
2. You must add Zhasz.676 to your friends list.

4. All games are to be played on game mode 1v1, faster settings, and are to be hosted by the person on top in the brackets.
5. Disconnecting within the first 2 minutes of a game will result in a regame. Disconnecting at any point after the first 2 minutes will require admin review of the game, and the admin will decide wether to regame or to award the win to one party or the other. If the same player disconnects again, he will be automatically disqualified. ALL ADMIN RULINGS ARE FINAL AND MAY NOT BE DISPUTED.
