I dont really agree with this "pro am" type thing, not much separates the two groups imo, and where do you draw the distinction. For example in the cpmplexity tournament, qxc and optikzero played in the amateur tournament, but they both play on professional salaries... If youre basimg it on skill, that see,s very subjective... Otherwise event looks great


"Amateur" is just another way of saying it's an open tournament. So I don't think people should read too much into that.

But I guess anyone can register for funzies and maybe play against a "pro" and to experience first hand the gap between you. Or maybe cheese them for the lols. This is much like MLG's open bracket.

So what is going to be casted?
I assume the Ro4000 isn't going to be, and that casting will start at the Ro64?

Why blame my country's laws? I don't know of any that would stop us from being included in this list. Hence asking for clarification and investigation so I have a more solid understanding as to why myself and all the other Australians posting here are being excluded.

Totally fine if they come out and say "Its because of these laws: ...."

Wanted to take part in it but too bad many countries can't play.

Issues with countries not being included is most likely due to competition laws for each country - it's all different. I'd imagine that the guys behind the pro/am are researching and trying to find out exactly which countries would be eligible for sure, before putting them down. Or at least I'd hope that's what's happening.

Now Poland and we're all cool! From what i know we only have some kind of tax from the prize you win but it should be payed by the winner if he wins in foreign country.

Btw., is it possible to unregister for the amateur tournament somehow? I thought its possible to register for both tourneys and because i was too lazy to write the application for the pro tourney at first i just started with the amateur one, but now i cant register for the pro tourney anymore :D.

Sorry to anyone who is finding out that their country is not included on the eligibility list. We are continuously investigating individual country laws in an effort to expand services there as well.
If your country is not listed and you would like for us to further investigate the local laws so that you can be included in the future, please let us know HERE and we will add them to our active list.


Just add Poland, so many good players here and about law, like Nerchio said, if you win something you schould pay a tax for it.

imo the pros should get all the prize money and the amateurs should get all the graphics cards, I highly doubt the pro players would do anything with them other than sell them as they likely already have free gear from sponsors, and pro players need money as opposed to amateurs, who would probably be very happy with a new graphics card

just my 2c
