To register, send an email to sami.kilani@ausproleague.com with the following:


edit: You must be in the channel to confirm participation, this is check-in. Be in the channel 5 minutes before the tournament starts atleast.

Reminders about the brackets you've signed up for will be sent to the email address you mailed in your registration from, so check it regularly if you're forgetful

Player Information and Rules

You may register to play in both brackets. Both brackets are provided to allow flexibility and to offer a “double elimination” bracket in a sense but spread over two weekends to avoid the downtime one usually finds with a double elimination bracket.

All games are to be played on the “SEA” Battle.net Server unless both players can come to agreement to play on NA (for instance, if a player has an Optus ISP). However, if the players can't agree to play on NA they must play on SEA.

For the online brackets, please be in the channel “APL” to report results, and if necessary seek admin guidance. Replays will be expected if troubles arise and from the Ro8 onwards.

For the online brackets, the first map of each round will be pre-determined, then standard loser picks next map format will be in effect. These details will be provided as registration numbers are confirmed.

The race you specify in registration is the race you must play throughout the tournament.

For the live finals, all maps to be played will be pre-determined.

For the live finals, depending on time and if the players are willing we may have the spectators challenge the finalists (with a suitable handicap, of course) for prizes.
