@ Senex/Pull/Yaki -- In case you care, some of the updated information found in this thread's OP has not made it over to the z33k page (like the upped prize pool). I doubt you are going to pull a switcheroo and pocket the extra 50 (especially because that doesn't divide well by 3), but you should probably stay consistant across your media especially if you might plan furhter events.
Oooohhh good point sir. We will definitely keep that in mind for future events and I'll send a message over to z33k to see if they can fix it. Thanks for calling it out!...and yes..i'm literally shaking with anticipation
Will there be interviews with the players or something? I'd be really curious to hear the pro's opinions on these maps once they've played a tournament on it!
There's already an interview with Area 51 Gaming's SaroVati here:
and we'll definitely be doing more interviews with the players as they play their games. SaroVati's interview was before he played his match, but goes into how he ran into FRB, practiced for the tournament and his thoughts on the variant so far. Future interviews will definitely have questions about the maps and their experiences playing, so stay tuned!
I'm wondering how long the broadcast will go... How many matches will be cast and streamed? Will all the games have vods uploaded of them?
Is there some benefit for me to watch live or should I just watch the vods? I have something going on tonight which I can likely get out of but I'll probably end up just watching the vods. I'm passionate about this idea, though, and want to support it in any way I can.
Also, btw, I noticed a few out of date points to the Z33k page. In the "How can I get involved?" section it still says $150, and also it still says 6m and 7m for channels instead of FRB.
Edit: It would be great to do like winners interviews and interviews with all the players before the tournament and such. IDK if that's really possible for this tournament, but it's a nice feature to have, especially for this to get the players' thoughts on FRB.

I know. I was gonna try to stay up for this but UK time plus being sick and having to work on thesis is a bad combo. I'm stoked to wake up to VODs tomorrow though. Best of luck to all the players
