@Loes ... HuK is allowed to play for Canada as the USA cancelled their event. I got the approval from both WCG and WCG USA!
So, if he's in Korea anyway after he wins during WCG and doesn't need a flight, what happens to the donation money?
If he's in korea we will still have to pay the loyalty fees for him. The rest of it will go towards #2 then #3 .... all the way until we have 3 ppl going (or less if we go through the list).
If we get to the last and he won't go and we have some money left, we will keep it for future events! This would be the only case as we don't know what will happen next year, will SC2 be a game (we can assume it will be with 99% confidence but we never know), etc.
Note: there's a maximum distance we can get to pick the 3 players going to the GF (for example, WCG will not accept the 128th player to go even if he's willing to pay. I don't remember how far we can get in the ranking, but it also has a relation to the amount of people entering the tournament).

wcg usa got cancelled?
yes ... their SC2 and CS finals will instead send the winners to Pan-Ams, not GF unless the winners want to pay their way.

I think the problem is that if you have a sc2 tournment and you charge a entry fee then blizzard wants some money. I believe WGC Canada is just trying to get around this. Anyways i'm so EXCITED!!!!

I think that this fundraiser is worth the name. In fact, anybody can donate as much as he wants. We could each donate more than 20$ if we want to. I would think that the 20$ thing would be something like : if we donate minimum of 20$, we have access to the tournament.
I think that way it is fair to say it is a fundraiser. ....Does that mean MLG is a fundraiser too? I'm pretty sure they'd be happy to take more than the 70$ entry fee as donations. Maybe it's just semantics, but the wording is misleading in my opinion. ... If you offer 5$ to MLG they will say no ... SIMPLE AS THAT, case's close! Now be stoked about this!
Might not want to throw other organizations names around when trying to get a point across. MLG is a lan event with a venue, you have an online qualifier that just requires you to send the qualifiers to WCG (which is expensive, but less expensive than MLG). I am glad you guys are doing this, but if you continue to do it, have better PR instead of giving us sarcastic remarks as answers.
Good luck to everyone who tries to qualify. e-Sports hwaiting!

I know Reddit used the ChipIn website to raise funds for MKP to attend WCG Orlando, so I'm wondering if we can get a running count of how much money is required to send 1st place to the event, and how much is raised so far. Getting a running count might be a better idea to rally people behind. Else they just think they're throwing money to a paypal account where they have no idea if expenses are covered.

good idea mate. will pass the idea to the good person.

Gonna be all toss all the way :D

are you aware what has been going on in Canada for WCG for the past little while?

Yeah, I think people are justified to have some doubts here given how Canada has been treated like the red-hair stepchild here.
