eXe North American Starcraft Open #2

Hello everyone,
Preparations have been done.

I am pleased to introduce
Another great thing eXe will produce.

North Amercian Tournament Number 2
Brought from eXe to you

Where players confront each other in epic fights
For their place in the spotlights

Two Lords of competition will meet,
Or will they only meet an early defeat?

The one they call Jinro
Could leap to the top with unparrelleled gusto,

Or will that just not jive
With the one known as Alive?

Better yet,
I might bet

That the best among us, those Dragoons,
Might play to their own tunes,

Working their way through the bracket
As a tennis ball leaps from the racket.

I have a feeling in my gut
That no matter what

The tenth of December
Will be a day to Remember.

Don't miss your chance to join in,
Just sign up within:
http://www.z33k.com/starcraft2/tournaments/4182-exe-north-american-starcraft-open-2/teams

But visit also,
And get to know thy foe:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=285258
http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/3580919408

And if you happen to fall from glory
Make sure to stay for the entire story:
www.twitch.tv/teamexesc

The intense competition
Will not begin,

Until the time to commence
Has left us without suspense.

Good Luck and Have Fun
-TrumpCard and Virrox

Who likes money? Everyone? Excellent.
Who likes Starcraft 2? Everyone? Fantastic.

Rules:
+ Show Spoiler +
- You must play with the Race and Battle.net ID that you signed up with.
- You must contact your opponent on IRC or Battle.net to play your match.
- You have ~15 minutes to start your Round 1 match, anyone that is not present after 15 minutes will get a disqualification. Contact an admin if you are unable to play.
- No observers are allowed in-game other than casters and/or tournament admins.
- Those who are listed as one of the official livestreams are always allowed to stream your game. When in doubt, check the list of streamers below.
- After the match has been played, both winner and loser must report the result and upload the replay.
- For matches that are Best of 3 and 5, the first game is decided through a set map process. After the first game, the loser picks a map from the Map Pool listed below. Each map can be played on only once.
- In the case of disconnects in the first 4 minutes of the match, it will be restarted if there was no first-opponent-contact. The participants have to involve a referee if the problem appears frequently. If a participant disconnects after 4 minutes into the match, it is the choice of the opposing participant whether the match will be restarted or not. A referee has to be informed in any case!
If the disconnected participant obviously won the match, the replay must be uploaded to a referee who then will decide whether the match will be restarted or not. For the rematch participants have to choose the same races as in the first match. In the case of random races participants have to choose the race that was chosen by the game in the previous match.
- Pauses : players must give prior warning before pausing the game for whatever reason. If players abuse their pausing they will be disqualified.

Livestreams and Casting:
+ Show Spoiler +
- Team eXe Livecasters (www.justin.tv/teamexesc, & TDB)

The following are the only people who can contact you about casting and invite cocasters to your game:

Representatives from these two streams are the only observers you may have in your game apart from approved tournament admins and referees. You may not invite your friends, family, classmates or housepets to observe your games.

You may stream your own games at your own risk, if you so wish.

There are actually two, but the stats didn't transfer over when we changed the tournament from a player-hosted tournament, to a z33k-sponsored tournament

Due to the already large number of signups, we have increased the maximum number of players to 256. Even if there are over 256 signups though, you can still play as a backup for the inevitable no-shows, so signup anyway!

Signups so far haven't been too bad - considering there's still a week left to go before the tournament and there are already 11 GM's signed up, I think we might just outdo our first NA Open, which would be great

Signed up! I'll play in it even if tl open is on the same day, I doubt I'll make it past 5 pm est in that anyways zerg is really volatile right not now and the tl open rounds usually progress quite rapidly.
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul
