![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/48irC.png) Thanks to all of the players for participating, and for all of the passionate members of the FRB community who inspired us to bring this event to life. What started in our heads as a small, community based tournament with mainly Masters and Diamond league players turned into something larger than we ever imagined. We were thrilled to get our first big name player, and from there it kept piling up and getting bigger and bigger. We would like to thank "ChewToy" for his amazing contribution of the bulk of our prize pool since this was one of the biggest reasons for the tournament taking off! To the community players who applied and were unable to be placed, we are truly sorry that there was not a spot for you in this tournament. While we've always known that we were going to prioritize professionals, Grandmasters, and so on down the leagues, it was still very difficult to only have two spots open for community signups. From the response that we have gotten so far, it seems likely that another FRB Grand Tournament will happen in the future, with a bigger prize pool and more spots for players, so please do not let this discourage you from signing up for future events. Anyways, I hope you guys will all tune in when we go live at 8PM EST on Friday the 13th! | ||

(I recognize of course that Senex and Pull have already got their feet in the door with their previous commentaries! Just mentioned it for the sake of publicity) | ||

I wouldn't be surprised if somebody would like to do it (I recognize of course that Senex and Pull have already got their feet in the door with their previous commentaries! Just mentioned it for the sake of publicity) Frankly, we've reached out to numerous community casters and were pretty much disregarded, while Senex and Pull have been 500% passionate about this project and the FRB community from day 1... So while we would consider having someone on as a guest caster for a few games to boost publicity, I'm totally behind Senex and Pull and know they'll do a great job when it comes time to go live.

Don't worry, VODs will be going up on www.youtube.com/WiseOldSenex - he already has a ton of FRB content on his channel as well! Give he and Pull (www.youtube.com/PullSC) subscribes to show your support. When it comes time to attract sponsors for a potential next event, it will be huge if we can show companies solid subscriber numbers on our casters' Youtube channels as well as a lot of follows on our Twitter ( www.twitter.com/FRBGrandTourney )! | ||

Make the FRB community proud! MNDakota, we're really sorry that we couldn't offer more spots to passionate members of the FRB community like yourself. While we got a lot of pro/sponsored signups and a good amount of community signups, we didn't have enough players in total to stretch the tournament to 32, which meant only 2 "open" spots. We mulled over the idea of having a community "entry tournament" where the top 2 got the 2 spots, but ultimately ran out of time since we just started putting this event together last Thursday! | ||
