Hey um... the banner at the front shows that only 1st/2nd/3rd get a prize. Wouldn't it make more sense for there to be a prize distribution for 1st to 8th? Since 2 people from each bracket advance to the quarter finals? (it says top 2 from each bracket advance)..
Then between that and the GSL finals, quarter finals are played? Since only semi-finals are played live as a pre-show?
It just esems kinda weird... that you could not even drop a game all day, on ur way to top 2 of ur bracket, then you show up for ANOTHER LAN (and I live really far from downtown toronto too), and you have a chance to not win anything?
Please clarify...
Either makes sense:
1) Just play to the last person standing on each of the 4 times, so there won't be a "gap" between the top 8 and top 4 (since it's not mentioend where/when the RO8 matches are being played), and award the winner of each bracket a set amount already for their time and effort
2) Play till the farthest 2 players in each bracket are left standing, then those 2 players play online to determine who gets into the final 4. But anyone who gets to the final 4 still gets a prize.
I'm just not attracted to the idea of going to a LAN, having the possibility of not dropping a game, and still not getting a prize. Reconsider please?

Alright, so there are a number of you who want to switch times and I'll do my best, I'm also seeing about doing double elimination for the LAN. If there are concerns about a double elimination bracket please pm me and let me know, I'd love to have some input on it from the players :>

As per my last tournament the top 8 will all get a prize (probably 30$ or so) however the top 3 is where most of the money will go, sorry about not communicating that. Also all of the top 8 will be playing on the 18th as a pershow to the gsl. I'll send you a pm and we can talk things through.

Double elimination would be nice. A second chance to get into top 8 if you lost the first time :\ though it would extend the tournament by who knows how long.
