FAQ:
I can't make the scheduled time. What should I do?
These match schedulings are flexible. However, it is up to you to organise an alternate time with your opponent.
I can't seem to contact my opponent. Should I declare a forfeit?
If your opponent is uncontactable try to give them a couple of days leeway to reschedule before declaring a forfeit.
What Best of X are the group stages?
Matches in the group stages are best of one. It is 1 point for a win, 0 for a loss and draws should be replayed. However the match can be played to a best of X if both players agree to it.
Is there chat channel I can sit in while waiting for my opponent?
The USYD chat channel on SEA will serve as a temporary lobby. Chat with other players, arrange practice matches etc.
Do we really have to play on SEA?
Yes the tournament is officially taking place on SEA, just to make it constant. Not everyone has a NA character. If you and your opponent both agree to play on NA that's fine too.
Why don't my points add up to the actual total I've earned?
If you do not report your results you will not get points. If you believe we have miscounted your points please e-mail us. It's difficult to keep track of everyone's results. Miscounts will be inevitable.
I'm a bronze player and I keep getting matched up against diamonds. WHY IS THIS TOURNAMENT SO IMBA?!?!!
Every group has at least 3 diamonds. This is to ensure a high calibre of players in the elimination rounds. That being said, the rest of your group is sub-diamond. Additionally, in each group there are at least 2 players of the lowest league. This means you will at least play one person of a similar skill as you even if you're the lowest rated in the group If you play in a tournament you have to expect to run into players stronger than you are. We might organise something for the gold and below players to do after the group stages.
How do I submit my results?
Please send your results to usyd.starsoc@gmail.com and include your replay if you can. If you feel it's epic enough to be commentated please include the keyword COMMENTATE in the subject line. Inside the e-mail please provide this information

Within your group you are assigned a number. For example, if I were:
6.
Brockemon
In the first matchup I see that it is 5v6. Hence, I'm facing the 5th player in my group, in this case it would be
5. Malik on Lost Temple on the 10th March
