I'm not paying $20 to enter a tournament that I've never heard of. And the website looks like crap, it tries too hard to look like the in-game menus.

What do you mean you've never heard of.
I am looking forward to the NESE and am really excited for it.

Very interesting. The website is well made despite its relative opacity. The map pool is sweet.

I cannot pay $20 to enter a tournament, however (especially online). It goes against my morals. Either invite players, have a paid entry LAN, or allow free entry. Even with restrictions (say, on league) it would be fine as long as there is no monetary cost to enter the tournament.

I look forward to the games ahead in the NeSE but not as a participant.

We are working towards eliminating the entry fee but it will take time and great support from the community to do so.

My question is, you guys must have a league license to run this. When reading through it, you see that this tournament violates the TOA Tournament Agreement as shown here;

There's a bit of information to be gleaned from the sponsored thread http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=252300&currentpage=4

I'm pretty sure it has died in the same fashion it did back when it was announced under another name around beta/early retail. They started taking registration money and then everything just kind of coincidentally fizzles out.

The plan was for them to go completely free to enter by mid October but you could 'reserve' a spot by continuing to pay until that point, when they would refund all the money and open up completely free registration, and the tournament would start early 2012. Of course their transition to becoming free has yet to happen. If anyone has paid maybe they can let us know if they ever got a refund or if they have kept you more informed than the general public.

I guess the most die hard NESE fans can continue holding out hope but it's basically been 1.5 years of taking registration money off and on and failing to actually accomplish a single thing

Yes, they were originally "the gaming world series" around beta/retail which was approximately 1.5 years ago.

Looks like everyone saying " its a scam " was right then.
