Here's your proof. I even threw in an extra $100 for all the confusion. Total guaranteed prize pool not including entry fee is $1,100. And like I stated at the very beginning of this thread, guaranteed $1000 + entry fee.
Not sure who or how these rumours came to be. But again, it's the internet, and trolls exist.

bump. awesome pictures. see everyone tomorrow!
|
It's good that the prize pool is $1100, but it is far more important that there are cash prizes down to the position I finish in. I will probably be next to last.
|
come get it alex. if you smeeeeellllalalallalaalal what the rock, is cooking.

I did pretty good for being the only Gold ranked player there. To quote the caster "some older guy in Gold league". I was definitely the oldest player there, only a couple were within 10 years of my age, at the most. I did good as the only Gold player in a tournament of Masters, which is to say I went 0-4 in my games, but I made them work for it. I didn't just quit at the first sign of trouble like "pros" do. Anyone who wanted to win had to destroy all my buildings. That was my passive aggressiveness at work.
I was a little disappointed that no one seemed to acknowledge my semi-fame as THE McStupid, the most bad mannered player in SC2 ladder rankings, I thought that would at least get me a few questions asked about if I really can have a player banned as I have written in the chat box during many matchmaking games that I wasn't doing well in (yes I really can, I know people at Blizzard HQ, Irvine).
In my first game, the Master I was playing against started to rush me early and I got him to back off for a bit, but I got to say, I nearly came out of my chair over it. He was some skinny little Asian dork and I would have ROFLstomped his ass IRL. But I behaved myself and contained the rage.
Anyone got a link to the VOD of the tournament? I'd like to see it, as there was talk of casting one of my games. I hope they casted the game where I had a fleet of 3/3 Vikings going around destroying Zerg bases.
Tournament creators - as I was saying to one of you, make a Bronze-Silver-Gold tournament. Do not make it for Bronze to Diamond, as no Bronze will even bother trying. It was bad enough me being in Gold and playing Masters. Give the lower level players a fair chance at winning.

Also good news, I'm creating a website so all registration and ticket entry purchases will be performed online. More details will be coming soon with the official announcement in three weeks.

Let's just say I was the oldest person in that tournament. I don't look my age either, I have been hearing that for years. I'm sure I am DOUBLE the age of some of the younger players I saw there. The word "old" sounds bad, let's call it "time spent in this life".
Link to VODs of the tournament gameplay?

Where's the VOD of one of my games? I heard the caster talk about casting one of them.
I watched the short video of "This game makes me mad" where the protoss got early rushed. Is he a diamond or above player?
Let me tell you something I learned back in my Bronze League days about playing against a Protoss - ALWAYS fully recon my base (especially the corners) once I get my wall up, and ALWAYS get detection up as soon as possible!
