Ladies and Gentlemen, this event promises to be quite the starter to the 2011 year. We'll be slowly revealing the list of participants as the event approaches in this thread and I promise you that you will all be very excited to see what this invitational tournament has in store for us all to start off our new year.

As for the remaining 10 spots that aren't confirmed? You'll all see what we have in store for those as we get closer to the grand finale.

Just a little taste as the players start rolling in... but the thread has been updated with the names of the first 5 invited players! And what a nice mix we've already started to have from all three races. Hope you all are already excited!

Is this really going down on a Thursday?

Yes it is... and as you'll see the players we have confirmed you'll start to understand why as well. Got a very good response from the Thursday time as it didn't conflict with the zillions of other tours out there.

But a lot of great players make it even worse... as I will miss out on some awesome games.

Having great tournaments like this one happening during the week due to other great tournaments on the weekend is probably nothing someone should complain about though.

The good news about this particular event is that if all goes well (which we are hoping it will) is that our sponsor Justin.tv will most likely allow us to turn this into a more common event so we can continue to bring you lots of high quality coverage.

So consider this particular event a bit of a trial run and if we see lots of support than there is a higher probability of more like it with even a more long-term event in the future. I do hope you all enjoy it though as we are putting a lot of work into making it a smash up success!

So, will Justin.tv lift their regional viewers limit for this event, or will all the viewers be american?

Also, I might be blind; But I don't see which server, although I'm assuming US.

There is no longer a regional viewer cap on justin.tv. That was taken away a while ago as they told us so that shouldn't be an issue once things get going. We're looking forward to proving that by having tons of people from all over the world watching at the same time. :-)

And I am considering looking at the map pool rules looking at it now. I had forgotten one of my favorite systems for choosing maps in Bo whatever events, and that's the alternating banning system where you leave only the remaining maps. I'll talk it over with the other admins sometime today and see what we might do about that.

And yes, this will be on the US servers.

Just added two more players to the list of confirmed invites. Just to keep things interesting... With this many players I think we'll reveal a few more each day until the list is complete.
