There are already so many events on the weekend, and almost no events on Monday and Tuesday. I also scheduled this so as to not interfere with NASL.

I can't sign you up through z33k's system. Some people said they had luck creating new accounts which seems odd, but I will talk with z33k staff about the problem.
|
Wow can't believe u guys got EGLZgamer to participate in this:D Should be some really awesome games!
|
I was told that changing their passwords fixed it for some people, but it's obviously a glitch of some kind.
|
I keep thinking this is today lol :D
|
Since I had the question asked, even though the tournament is "full" you can sign up as a back up and check in at tournament time.
|
|
|
Ascend is now among the casters that will be casting the event.
Only 4 days left, signups still accepted!
|
Gonna miss Trump casting these.
|
so many casters so many good players cant wait for this should be a great event.
|
noooooo backup
|
Definitely going to make sure some RH guys to sign up! :D Let's hope we can take this home. Should be fun.
|
i wanna play this but i can't sign into my account o.o

You should teach your members to not be such racists on their stream. VT_Whiplash yelling "n!gg3r" after someone does a baneling drop on his probe line is hardly professional. I'm not offended by it but I'm sure someone would be.
|
Going to watch this right now instead of laddering. I am Bronze so I will have more fun watching than laddering....
|
The Gosu Crew will be providing commentary of this event as well on our stream... currently labeled as Rakura on the calendar when we add ourselves to it... should be an excellent event with a pretty nice crowd of players!

Uhh..... MLG shakuras? You're a dumbass if you think MLG maps aren't standard :|
|
Tomorrow Semifinal #2 between VTSpades and coLrsvp. The winner of that will face sixjaxTerran (now known as sixjaxMajor) in the Grand Final for $100!
|
This was fun! I actually won my first round game (I'm only Gold and beat a Master) and lost my second round game.
I'm glad I lost the second round because if I had won I would have had to play sixjaxTerran xD
Can't wait for the next one, going to practice til then.
|
Getting started in 15 minutes!
|
Congrats to sixjaxTerran (or now sixjaxMajOr) for winning 1st place!
1st - sixjaxMajOr
2nd - VTSpades
3rd - coLrsvp

I want too clarify on maps sense on z33k it just says shattered temple, that is MLG right? Also on taldarim it says GSL but on here says MLG, Should I go by what this thread map pool is or the z33k one?
|
All maps are MLG versions.
The reason it is listed like that on the z33k site is the MLG maps are unavailable to select from the list box.
