Your face is a trademark violation! This is a free tourney, which people now see because they saw July Zerg, now more people have a shot at some free money and a well organized tourney. I do not care if it was called "GSL SA", call it what you want, its awesome prize money!!! But let me explain, tourney is in July, maybe you missed that  July is a month, zerg is a sc2 race. If it was called JulyZerg, or actually, ST_July, then maybe. I highly doubt July actually even has the name trademarked. That is like going on the ladder and taking everyone called boxer or slayers'boxer to court. So i ask you guys, whysosrs?PS: The guy who came up with the name for this tourney is probably a genius with a 9" member!!! | ||

I find Swiss Rounds to be the most rewarding when finding a top 32 to go into Single Elimination. It allows for high level games as the rounds go on, as well as allowing for the lower level players to have some fair games instead of just being stomped all day. | ||

There are MUCH easier ways to get attention, seriously ^^. This is just a fun name. You should take part, or even watch the stream, it's quite fun | ||

As the one guy said, PF has had sc2 themed names for the tourneys the whole time. and Yeah, this is July, and he decided to go with July Zerg. Its a play on words -_-. And if you think was a cheap trick to gain more attention, 2 tourneys ago we had DieStar register, and afaik we have also had BeastyQT register for it, iirc. So... Name recognition: Maybe. Trying to get PF more popular? Its already getting the big names -_-, Ergo, its not a cheap trick, just a cool name. Wish I could enter. Durban ftw tho :D | ||

Month name: July Winning race: Zerg I know zerg will win because the overmind came to me in a dream and said so. Also, seeM is dabest. If you guys wanna be anger about something then rage about the name of the comp being a spoiler. :/ [EDIT] THIS JUST IN, next months tournament will be called "August Terran", whoda thunk? | ||
