Hello everyone!
I'm excited to announce that the Antarctic Cup is back! Following what was an awesome first tournament (Won by EmpireKas, congratulations!), the cup will be moving on over to the North American server this time round. The prize pool has been raised to $300 (massive thanks to those who donated!) and will be split as follows:
1st: $200
2nd: $75
3rd: $25
As for when and where, it will be played on January 29th at 17:00 PST (20:00 EST, 01:00 GMT) and cast by PengWin and Shan the following weekend on the 4th and 5th of February (times TBD).

yay another one 
|
Awesome. Much love for this event series <3
|
|
|
Got a first GM signup, makes me a happy organizer.
|
again, antarctic cup, doesn't involve SEA, confusion etc.
maybe change the name to the atlantic cup or something like that. cool competition though, looking forward to seeing the signups.
|
I'm surprised that there is confusion, but I've noted it and I'll be thinking about a better name for #3. Ideas would be appreciated :D
|
I'm surprise there is confusion, if only because pretty much all of Southeast Asia is above the equator, same as Europe, North America, half of South America and Africa. I think Antarctic Cup is a great name because it is a tournament, a.k.a. cup, and its creator's name is PengWin. It's really that simple.
Either way, I'm so excited to co-cast round 2 of this series! Hope the turnout keeps growing, both in competition and audience :D
|
Nice another one, I'll be watching that one too!
|

|
Name the next tournament after me please...
|
why yes, stitches, that is the link to the thread you are on.
And as tempted as I am to have the Stitches Open, somehow I don't think it has the best ring to it 
|
You should make it kramen kup
|
Gotta make it Cenador Cup. CC is easy to remember :D
|
Yet again, the Antarctic cup is in the northern hemisphere... I just don't get it. Why not Arctic cup?

I agree entirely!
|
Do I have to be from Antarctica to be in it?
|
That depends, is Blizzard gonna region-link antarctica to the NA server? :D
|
Antarctica should be its own Region.
Hahahaha imagine how dead it would be, 2 hours to find a 1v1 game and you play vs someone on West antarctic while being in east antarctica...
|
imagine watching a stream belonging to someone in antarctica
|
Cenador Cup does have a nice ring to it..
|
See that Cenador? Apparently the Cenador Cup has support already. O.o
|
Haha didn't know my name was that awesome! ( JK it's not awesome at all :D) and DoomsVille I totaly agree with you, Nice ring and easy to remember
|
I vote Cenador makes a team called the Cenador Crew.
|
Apocalypse Cup would be the greatest name in history.
|
I'm really tempted to hold a tournament on 21.12.2012 and call it that.
|
If you call it Apocalypse Cup, you have to hold it on 21.12.2012, I'll vote for that, but then you also need to create a picture with
big snowballs failling from the sky and killing everybody :D. Then there will also be bit Christmas in it :D
|
|
|
If it wanst because the date was set, i would totaly vote for ''Santapocalypse'' Because that is the most awesome Christmas/Death name I've ever heard!
|
It's an incredible miracle!
|
Adding a list of the notable signups... you're going to want to watch this.
*more to be added in an hour or so when i can actually view the tournament page*
|
