How long do the tournaments run? Just as a general rule, do the (US) tournaments run from 9pm to 1am or so? Is it like 1 game at 9pm then you have to wait until 10pm to play your second? Or can you start whenever your next opponent is ready? I'm a silver leaguer without a ton of time (too bad D: ) so if anyone could describe the typical experience of playing in this tournament I would really appreciate it =) Thanks! | ||

Great question...the tournaments can vary pretty wildly to be honest...but in general don't usually go much longer than 2-3 hours, average is ending around 12:30-1AM or so. You can always start whenever your next opponent is ready you don't need to wait for any specific time. All the info is on the brackets, so you can just go right ahead. The only thing that might hold you back a few minutes is if an admin knows the game we are currently casting will end in the next 5-10 min he may ask you to wait a few minutes to start so the casters can jump into your game, which leads to less downtime for the stream and more back to back games  | ||

Good to know, helps for planning. I watched the stream a bit last night, very cool, keep it up! | ||

Any help? Unfortunately you'll have to sign up for the league that your account is associated with. We do look at match histories and take complaints very seriously, so if you think you are way too good to be in our silver league, I'd suggest waiting until you get it to gold, otherwise it will result in a Disqualification. | ||
