Just a question. Why host it on the SEA server? The latency on the east cost is usually better when using the NA server and everyone with an SEA account has access to the NA server anyway.

Isp's on telstra lines get better ping to SEA, And optus lines get better ping to NA

I thought it was the other way round, what with Optus being a Singaporean company and all.

You'd think so but no. I get great sea ping with iinet and I know people with telstra with similar. Everyone I know with optus or tpg complains about sea latency

So pumped! Even though I'm doubtful I'll even stand a chance against most players, I'm still so excited. Thank you for organizing this; Brisbane needs a bigger eSports scene.

I have had a lot of sign-ups in a short amount of time and if the current sign-up rate keeps up the tournament size could be extended to 64 players.

I note that in the event 64 players show up at the tournament and participate, the prize pool would most likely jump up another $200. If you have already signed up, tell your friends in Brisbane and help sky-rocket this tournament!

How many more spots available? What is the skill level required to enter? I might come to support QLD's SC2 scene (:

The first 32 slots are full but if enough sign-ups are received the player limit will be upgraded to 64.

There are no rank restrictions on sign-ups.

Hey Slayar, any chance you could post the list of players as it stands? If it jumps to 64 man obviously this will change but it would be interesting to see whos going (P.S. if the round robin groups exist, seeing those would also be boss

) cheers either way

The tournament is full unless the player cap is upgraded to 64, but I would appreciate it if you would signup anyway so I can quote higher numbers to potential sponsors while organizing future tourneys

hmm, I'd sent you an email back on the 9th but notice I'm not on the player list - didn't make the cut or something :|? Was well before signups were full.
