Soldier's Welcome Home Tournament
Seven months ago, a player who has been a part of this community left for deployment. Since then, he has helped create the New England Starcraft 2 League, funded multiple tournaments, and sponsored the AoV ISL. In the first few weeks of April, sYz-Adrenaline comes home for a long needed leave and what better to celebrate that then with a Welcome home Tournament!
When: April 9th 2011 1PM EST. Doors open at Noon EST Where: Galaxy Gaming66 Third St. Dover, NH Prize Pool:For full tournament32/32 1st Place: $192 2nd Place: $96 3rd Place: $32 If the tournament does not fill the prize pool will be split accordingly based on the number of entrants with a 60/30/10 split. Format: 32 Participants maximum. Entry for the tournament will be $15 paid upon arrival. Dependant on the number of participants, tournament structure will be as follows: 24+ Participants will compete in Bo1 series until there are 16 players in the winners bracket and no more than 8 in the loser bracket. Rounds will then be played as a Bo3. 23- Participants will compete in Bo3 series throughout the tournament. Placement matches for both 1st and 3rd place will be done as a Bo5 series. Tournament will be double elimination. Rules: If a player is late by 15 minutes to a game without getting an OK from either his opponent or a tournament official, the players matches for that series will be forfeit. If you leave for food, the best place to go is next door. It's a pizza joint and will be easier for us to find you if your match is up. Tournament WILL NOT use the extended series MLG rules. Maps will be chosen from the current map pool and ONLY from the map pool when deciding a map to play on. No observers, other than those permitted by a tournament official, may join a tournament game as a spectator. Galaxy Gaming Rule: Spectators at the actual tournament are allowed but have to pay $5. Equipment: There are 13 computers available at Galaxy Gaming. If you have a mouse or keyboard that you prefer to use, feel free to bring it, but it is not mandatory. You can also bring a laptop or tower/Desktop but space is limited. It will be a first come, first serve. Registration: To register for the tournament, PM me with your Race, Character name, and Character code. For people who cannot PM for what ever reason, be it you aren't on the forum or you are banned for some stupid comment you made, walk-ins are also accepted. Once the 32 participant is reached, however, no more will be excepted. Again, its a first come, first serve basis. Details:I want this tournament to start exactly at 1 PM. To make sure of this, You must sign in with me by 12:50 PM. If you don't sign in, you will be forfeiting from the tournament. If you are going to be late, message me or call me. The brackets will be up by 12:55 PM and the tournament will start at 1 PM. The 1st and 3rd place matches will be shown on a projected wall, about 4ft X 10 ft. Disclaimer: No rain date currently scheduled. Map Pool:These maps may change with April’s ICCup Monthly Map PooliCCup Europa iCCup Match Point iCCup Neo Enigma iCCup Pawn Re iCCup Braxis Orbital iCCup Testbug GSL Tal'Darim Altar Maps will be chosen by elimination with the higher seed eliminating the first map and so on. Loser picks afterwards.
Contact me via PM if you have any questions.

The weekend after is the Last chance tourny at Sat with the Grand Finals on Sun for the end of season 1. I hope Jeremy is around for both.
|
2 and a half hour drive. if you get 20 people to sign up, pm me.
|
Can't wait for this. PM'd on the NE Sc2 Forums to sign up. On the NE Sc2 Forums it lists as a 1pm start time, but on my screen (logged in) on TL I see a 2pm start time? Some kind of time zone screw up?
|
The 9th Could definitely work for me.
I'll check with the warden (Wife) to see if we have anything set in stone for that day.
I'd love head up to GG again, I had a kick-ass time last event.
|
Technically the eastern timezone is considered EDT not EST to the rest of the world. That may be the problem where TL shows everything translated from KST.
|
Confirmed, i can make it, ill send pm now :D
|
It is suppose to start at 1 PM Est.
|
|
I am in it to win it! Got the OK from my wife!
|
And now I have to cancel. Apparently my wife didn't realize this is the same day that the circus will be in Lowell. guess where I'm going.
|
yay almost time for me to come home and sexy party hat to boot!

Hes Nervous for Mlg XD

He shouldn't be. Ryan has been improving tremendously as player since going to the last MLG event. Yes, he has his bad days, just like everyone else, but he's plays that damn girly music. Hwinning!
|

|
Only 2 more days to go! I really wish I could attend this, but I'll be rooting for Bliss to win, just cause it's a longshot since he's been away :p
|
