Forcing randoms to pick a race instead of going random again if there is a drop or something seems a bit unfair as it loses whatever slight/short random edge they might have.

It's unfair? There is nothing stopping him from disconnecting on purpose and try to get the race he is good at in the remake. The random player gets a second chance to get the race he wants.

That would be pretty bad mannered and sort of cheating, I don't know of anyone that plays random who would do something BM like that. That is basically what the non-random player would be doing if there was a drop after the random was scouted and the random had to remake as that race in the next game. I wouldn't think anyone would do that but then your suggesting it as a strategy so maybe some people would.
Either way I'd stick with saying its unfair.
Haha. All my life I've had this mindset that people are naturally evil, and my real life and virtual life experiences have only strengthened that thought.
Anyway, it could be someone's strategy or a way to just slip by the rules, but it is always best to get these rules set in stone so no one abuses it. Also, thanks to the Random Race tournament I think by gosucrew, since that's actually where I stole the rule from when one of my opponents DC'd in the beginning of the game.

- Those player's names who are in bold have not yet paid. We MUST receive payment by today at the very LATEST or you will not be included in the online bracket. If you have an issue with payment, contact an admin immediately.
- Those player's names who are underlined have not provided their character code. Please send this to an admin immediately.
We'll be sending out an e-mail with instructions and the full online-qualifier bracket this evening or early tomorrow.
Also, for those who wish to attend, TeSPA will be hosting a LAN party on the UT campus for the online qualifiers. We'll be doing our officiating together there and most likely watching NASL together afterward. Anyone is welcome to come play with us. We'll also have TVs and console stations set up and a number of unlocked ethernet ports for non-UT students. If you are planning on bringing a desktop (or laptop for non-UT students), you need to bring a short ethernet cable. You can check out the newly created Facebook event for the LAN Party here.

If you don't being your own monitor you will gave to count on borrowing from somebody. We highly recommend you bring your own.

It's funny how you guys updated the map pool, and then blizzard changes the ladder maps, will this affect the map pool or is your decision final?
I lied. I think the MLG changes don't affect the backdoor rocks that much. I don't think either map really has an outstanding balance issue. I'm going to go ahead and leave it as the MLG Shakuras.
Brackets and an email will be coming soon in the next few days (can't determine when because I have to make this email as comprehensive as possible). Look forward to it and I hope to see you all on Saturday.
