uh wait, Anaheim Code A and Code S spots are for August or September? :s September right? but then who gets the remaining August code S spot? (8 went out, 6 from up down + puzzle)
Or is it September Code A and August Code S ?

Turn code A into a 64 player tournament. One more round to make it to the up/down, but gives more tv time to top level players who are not getting the chance.

^that didn't give it away?^ apparently gom is covering the code a qualifiers according to torch and john eluded to it, but idk how they're gonna do it.
since DRG, boxer, ganzi, nani, thorzain, and fenix are coming over that means there are 10 spots up for grabs, or 9 depending on whether sase is coming.

Doesn't this mean someone like DongRaeGu can qualify after he won that 3D cinema tournament before Super Tournament finals against sC?
Also wonder if there's anyone else who might try qualify by this means? Any other potential guesses?
Could Jjakiji qualify by winning ICCup weekly finals 1? Can PuMa from winning NASL? Interested to see.

GOM has randomly invited more promising foreigners before (that's how Sheth got a spot iirc).

So, that wasn't me hallucinating... Thanks for the confirmation.
Nice move by GOM, pleasing the crowd once again  Or just a plan to expand the lifetime of our f5 key, kekeke.

They list the names of the programers that'll be playing. That's nice.
