To celebrate the Holidays, GosuGamers is hosting an open-for-all Holiday Special, with a prize pool of €500. There will be two days of qualifiers one for US and one for EU and one day for the playoffs. Note: As long as you have an EU or NA account you can participate in either or both qualifiers regardless of geographic location.

The top four players from each of the qualifiers will meet in a round of eight playoffs on December 26th at 18:00 CET (09:00 AM PST). The winner will take home €300, €150 for the runner-up, and the third-place winner will take home €50 from the €500 prize pool.

Hopefully none of the NA players have exams that they have to deal with (though that's quite late). It'll be interesting because as of late a lot of the bigger names have been seeing some issues making their ways to the finals in almost every tournament.

the NA qualifiers are on: Wednesday, December 22nd @ 03:00 PM Pacific time (PST).

(December 23rd, 00:00 CET) <- that is just converted time to CET.

To clarify some things.

To gather, Quakenet IRC will be used: http://webchat.quakenet.org/ channel = #gosugamers.sc2

If you sign up for the tour you can add your nick.identifier and you should, so I made a screen to clarify that a little.

I hope it's easier for you guys now.

considering the talent that this tournament has involved the lack of information/organization is a bit frustrating.

Would be nice to see the OP updated, and a bracket being updated for todays matches.

Assuming idra isn't playing either from what they have said which stinks was hoping to watch him play some.

Otherwise the cast is good and all. Just wish we were getting some better updates on what is going on.

Kas showed that his ridiculous win ratio on ladder (roughly 1700 wins/1000 losses) is far from a fluke! Impressive play by him!
