Qualification requirements : Be in the Top 7 players on NA Grandmaster at 12am EST on December 5th, 2013. Eligible players must be a citizen of any of the countries within the continental Americas, hold permanent residency status (green card) or hold a valid work visa. That says nothing about having to be in the US at the time, plus it's all online. So... is that actually a problem? | ||

I mean, you can still play on NA from other places in the world, so I don't see why it would matter why anyone is not in NA at the time. | ||

With the first date, a ton of players would have to make a choice between practicing (and probably doing so secretly) for WCG/IEM/Dreamhack or laddering for SHOUTcraft. In theory this gives them some time to finish their tournaments and ladder the last few days to try and qualify. | ||

Greg "IdrA" Fields will be co-casting the entire event, providing his usual analysis and dry humour. The reception for his cast during the first SHOUTcraft America was extremely positive and gave us one of our best days in terms of viewership, so it seemed only reasonable to invite him back. I personally enjoyed co-casting with Greg for both his familiarity with the players which gave him a unique insight into the competition and his respect for caster role definitions which allowed him to deliver analysis while I handled the play-by-play. The combination was well received and I very much enjoyed the cast and am looking forward to doing so once again. | ||
