Doors at 10a Start at 11a. It will actually probably start 5-10mins after 11 just because of no-shows and substitutes that are on the waitlist.

I don't force people to use settings they normally don't unless the computers being used make it physically impossible.

Doesn't this give an unfair advantage to people who practice with higher settings? You can see cloaked units more clearly if I am not mistaken.

The same argument can be said about forcing people to use all low settings. If you practice with high settings all the time and I use low settings, being forced to use low settings gives me the advantage because I'm used to it and can recognize those fluctuations showing a cloaked unit. I've set these tournaments up so that as many things as possible are controlled without hampering too many players. Just like with monitors. You have to use the monitors provided unless it's the finals. This makes a difference for 4:3 and 16 when playing on a different screen and vice versa.

Even with all these variables, I have seen very good players do well with a bunch of settings stacked against them and I have seen the opposite of the same level players.

Maybe Ryan can answer if all settings have to be on low for major tournaments, MLG?

Remember, doors open this weekend at 10am and we will begin the tournament a little after 11 in case we need to sub-in people on the wait list. We will be streaming live on the New England SC2 League stream and handing out sponsor prizes throughout the event. There will also be some free swag from Cooler Master and Kingston there as well as league T-shirts.

The shirts you can buy for $20 (down from $25) and are in just about every size. I'd love to see a floor full of them at MLG Prov

That makes no sense.
If you are not playing on what you practice on, then its a disadvantage.
If you think you can see cloaked units better on higher settings then practice and play on high.
Personally, it doesnt even feel like the same game when I am playing on low. Its hard to distinguish colors, and things seem to blend together.
