Really cool tournament setup guys! Thanks for doing this. I live in Australia and usually play on sea, was gonna do placement matches on NA and then enter the bronze-gold bracket, but I won 4 of my placements and placed plat.

I don't think I stand much chance in the plat through dia section, but I will keep practicing and hopefully enter some similar tournaments in the future.

Seems like an efficient and easy way of organising open tounaments. Hope tournaments like these continue to happen.

Good luck to everyone competing!

Hey Namida, thanks for the kind words! I hope you do pursue improving your skill level to something that you're comfortable with so we can see you in future tournaments =D You're always welcome to join us and try your best, it's a lot of fun and a nice break from ladder =)

I was really busy last week, so I couldn't play, but I was wondering why the times got pushed 30 minutes later? I wish it was 30 minutes sooner =(

I think the times are the same o.O
Monday-Friday Check-in: 5:00pm PST / 8:00pm EST Start: 5:30pm PST / 8:30pm EST

Edit: Looks like I accidentally made Monday's bronze-gold tournament 30 minutes earlier, that was a mistake. All of the other tournaments are at the correct time though.

If a tournament is full and people do not show up at check-in time, when/how do you select replacements?

Unfortunately, atm we don't. Hopefully we'll have a waiting list implemented soon and we should be adding 32 and 64 player brackets in the near future =)

Congrats to tonight's winners! Hope you guys had fun =)

Tournaments are starting to fill up quickly (some are filling up a couple days in advance) so if you want to participate make sure you don't wait til the day of the tournament to register because there's a good chance it will be full! We'll be adding larger brackets as soon as we can but right now they're only 16 player max so make sure you secure your spot early if you'd like to play.

I adjusted the prizing structure to be a little bit more top heavy because it didn't make a lot of sense for 2nd or 3rd place to be competing for as much as they were relative to the first place prize.

Sent you a PM man. Just make sure you're pasting your profile url into the correct place for the region on the account. Like, you're not accidentally putting your EU link in the NA region form or something.
