i'll make an analogy for you.

there is this place called earth, it is sectioned into 7 continents and like 200++ countries. now imagine that there is a country that has a cartel in it (mexico). now imagine this country has become extremely corrupt by the cartel and people fear they are endangered of getting shot and don't wana drink bad water.

now imagine:
earth = sc2
continents = map settings like space, jungles, etc
countries = maps
mexico = a bad map
cartels = corruptors
corruption = corruptors using corruption
bad drinking water = bad space water.
fear...shot = losing a game

mexico = IRL sc2, it is srs business bro.

on a serious note, gl fenix/tt1 free cash money practically.

Are you high?... I don't know if I should feel offended... indeed I didn't even understand that...
No, seriously, are you high?

On a side note... I was expecting to see more people from USA/CA since the trip to Mexico City is not that expensive and the prize pool is nice, and not really hard to take out (no EU, no KR).

Indeed I've been told... that it seems there is not enough people to fill the 64 slots for the tourney. So, you still have time to come.

It's gonna be fun anyway.
You play to win

that big of a prize pool and nothing? seems very bad! They should have published this somewhere so more players can participate. What could they possibly lose from that? well >_<

Yeah, this is dangerously bad. I hope the organizers don't do something shady like reduce the prize money because of the bad turnout.

A question to Mexican TL community: was this well reported in the LA scene, it seems like this kind of prize money should have been enough to get South America's best to come up and play. Not to mention that from the list TT1 posted I don't even recognize old Mexican BW names. Like, isn't BroL playing? and what about that guy that went to the Blizzard invitational in Brazil? The only guy i recognize besides Jian and Payam is Warlinker from Guatemala.

end of the year when all team's budgets are spent = bad
NO ANNOUNCEMENT and bad advertisement = bad

Huge prize, nice city and great location going to waste imo. TT1/Fenix are fighting for who gets richer. Shame too cause it could spurn future tourneys of this magnitude in mexico.

Have no idea what they were thinking not making this much more publicly known // having this held at a time that isn't at the end of the year (December is uniquely bad).

Yes, GameGune is a mess, i found out about it searching Latin SCII forums, and as TT1 says the info is confusing and very well hidden. Im not sure why they didnt advertise at all, maybe they wanted to keep the prize for themselves? :D. We've had bad experience with tournaments here in Mexico the last tournament i heard of was a mess in the organizing the brackets where confusing and somehow nobody knew who where they playing, and at what round where they (They ended up with 2 3rd places in a direct elimination tournament, and 2 place lost in the semifinals or something like that)
I'm going but im keeping my eyes open

e-Sports or anything tech-related is not particularly big in Mexico.
The organizers probably didn't want to burn any extra money at unnoticed advertisement.

I also wouldn't count it as a free win for TT1 or Fenix just yet, for that same reason. Players in Mexico are not likely to travel and compete to competitions like MLG or DreamHack/GSL across the globe, but that doesn't mean they're automatically bad.

Obviously it would be a mistake to assume its free money. TT1 and Fenix are sure favored, but still underestimating the competition is always bad

Well almost every event on Mexico for gaming never gets any exposure... lmao i found out about wcg 2010 2 days after it hapend because someone put the results hir on TL.net.... Yes the price are nice and it would be awesome to have you guys come(even to i can't make it there im still pretty far...) Its will take some time for the gaming to grow in mexico ppl still thinks games are for kids(i mean my mother stills tells me when im going to spend my time in something better(im 21....) ppl just don't see gaming as something good... ad stupid news about kids killing and dying because of the games...(pisses me of how ppl can buy everthing the stupid news say).

I hope you guys have a really good experience, by the way i know a couple of the guys you will be playing against(TheBeto) i used to play vs this guy in SC:BW he was as bad as me(D+ to C- Iccup) and i don't really think he has improve that much on sc2... so i think it would be a super upset if you guys don't take 1 and 2 places.

Everyone in sc2 improved, its just the way you play it. Nothing is wrote yet, anything can happen i'll recommend to TT1 and Fenix, do not understimate your opponents they can always come with something unexpected.
