Minor complaint, I really don't like Dual Sight as a tournament map, especially in the PvZ matchup, but if the players are okay with it then I guess I might be making a big deal out of nothing.
Nothing stopping em vetoing it.

Looking forward to it, as always!
But who is this Colin Smith? Does he prefer to be the benefactor hidden in the shadows? Or will he even be present at the event, gracefully accepting the ovations and cheers from the crowd?

Oh hey, in the weekend of my favorite tournament, my favorite caster announces the next installment of my second favorite tournament. Looking forward to this!

the tourny sounds tight! lookin forward to seein' this!

Yes my fave 2 day tourney is back last three have been awesome and this should be even better

SHOUTcraft has always been about both entertaining the audience with star-studded matches and giving back to our pros, so to deal with this issue we will be trialling a "bounty" system. Players who have no chance of advancing (which will occur if they lose have lost their first 2 BO3s) will qualify for a $50 comeback bounty, if they are able to win their final BO3. As always, nobody walks away empty handed from the SHOUTcraft Invitational and disheartened players have the chance to win back their pride and an extra cash prize if they are able to rally for a glorious last-stand.
It seems a bit unfair that a player who wins their first game and then loses the next two doesn't get anything, but a player who wins their last game gets $50. What if you play the weakest opponent in the group first? Why should you be penalised for that?

Heya TB, long time watcher, first time poster.
Love these tourniments, you, Apollo, Intricacy and the rest of the Cynical Brit crew keep up the good work! Good to see you continue to innovate with the introduction of pool play and a bounty for this tourniment.
In regards to "Who is Colin Smith" he was the top donator of SCI3 with $1200 and during the cast, TB said that the tourniment would be named after him. I also beleive that "Noa Friman" who donated $1000 in SCI2 was given a choice of a player for SC3. Edit, relooking at the top 5 contributer on Cynical Brit.com Colin Smith also donated $500 earlier then his $1200.
All the best with over the weekend for the smoothest SCI hopefully

You're such a gentleman, waiting until the end of Homestory before making the annoucement. A real man has manners, quite impressive.
|
Really looking forward to this, should be good, loved all the previous ones <3 As a side note, would it be worth getting an extra 2 casters to cover some of the matches, even if its just one or two, to give you guys a break? It's going to be a lot of games over the weekend. I'm sure there's some young casters out there who would love the chance to help. Just a thought.

Cant wait!!! I really hope white-ra will partisipate though

good stuff! hope the player lineup will be good =)
