Hey, Im a diamond player at the moment (got demoted after season1) but Im playing a few masters and doing well. Hence, one can say Im in the gray zone of diamond slash masters. I will keep laddering till the 24th but if I do get promoted before then can I just cancel my regesteration and apply for the masters/grandmasters tourney???

As long as we don't see a string of ladder losses on your account and you are laddering consistently, we accept whatever league Blizzard has put you in.

There are a lot of hints at a smurf, but the best way to see really is ladder activity, so as long as you're on the up and up in that regard, you should be totally fine playing in diamond

Yes if you do get promoted you can cancel and join in the masters division no problem!

If I can make it, it will be the first time for me competing in a Master/Grandmaster tournament. I'm woefully out of practice, but wish me luck anyway. >_<
You can only win the game when you understand that it is a game.

In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

awesome You'll have a blast! Even if you go out in the first round, so many people end up making a lot of friends, and these little groups have emerged all over the place - it's amazing to watch!

Nothing like competing in a fun and competitive environment!

This is bull. If I am a top level diamond player (not hard at all to get to), I am guaranteed a free $15 bucks a week. The moment I improve ever so slightly, I go down to 0% chance at $100 a week when I hit Master. After hundreds of hours of practice, I would finally be playing at a GM level, and capable of competing for top 3 with a chance of $10 - $100. This is simply discouraging player from improving. Why would I bother playing at a Master's level when I could play a a diamond and receive monetary benefits from playing as such?

It's basically:
$$$ for diamond
nothing for master
$$ to $$$$$$ for GM

:\

Well it's not like they should exclude GM from masters as there isn't enough GM people that want to play so they will no matter what combine GM with Masters so tuff luck man on that. It's not like these guys are getting this money to pay for themselves to live. This is just a generous offer from the league to provide this money what so ever. Its not like $15 dollars is a lot for diamond, Its like hey if you win this league you can go buy yourself a nice dinner.

To answer your question 1.01 - we don't really have much of a choice. There aren't enough GMs to warrant a tournament for their own, and honestly we see a LOT of masters beating GMs in our tournaments, which indicates to us that the level of competition is at a good and solid level. Masters aren't just necessarily getting rolled, whereas putting Diamonds in with Masters would be truly devastating for the majority of Diamond players.

ideally we'd love to do a tournament for each league, but unless you're willing to hire us another few team members, unfortunately it just can't happen yet

Not really sure what you expect people to do about this. Not offer monetary prizes for diamond? What do you suggest that is offered otherwise? Would diamond players really want coaching from hotkeyit.com like the other low league tournaments win?

Oh yeah, theres also a rule so you can't win a tournament multiple times...

If a player plays and consecutively wins two (2) tournaments of the same division, that player will be automatically added to our “List of Progression” (or LoP). Players on this list will play in the next league up. For example, if a player plays and wins the Gold/Platinum tournament two weeks in a row, that player will be added to the LoP. Because this player is at the Gold/Platinum level, he will be disallowed from participating in the Gold/Platinum tournament. Instead, he will be allowed to participate in the Diamond level tournaments.


You don't see the same people winning the tournaments often. Plus I have seen plenty of masters players win the M/GM tournaments so it is definitely not impossible. Not to mention.... it is 15$.... is it THAT big of a deal to call it "bull"?
