Monday Night Starbow #21: 2015.03.02 $25 Open

Please note: This edition of Monday Night Starbow is starting two hours earlier than normal! This means Europeans may have an easier time participating, as the event will start at 10:00pm UTC. I have a work engagement at 10:00pm and want to make sure the tournament wraps early.

The twenty-first event of Monday Night Starbow is another Open Tournament for $25 USD*.

Date and Time:
Monday, Mar 02 10:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00)

Stream:
twitch.tv/SC2_Starbow

Vehk & Friends

Sign-Ups:
Challonge!

RULES:

Player Maximum: A maximum of 16 players can sign up for the tournament. Should more than 16 players sign up, players 17+ will be put on a waiting list. These players should still show up for check-in to be replacements.
Check In: Players will need to present themselves in the chat channel by 22:00 GMT (+00:00). Players will be given no more than 5 minutes to arrive before they are disqualified.
Chat Channel: MNS on Americas Server. This is where results will be reported to the Event Administrator (usually Vehk).
Server: In all inter-server matches, Americas will be the default server. Home server will be default for all intra-server matches. Players may play on a different server than the default server ONLY if both players agree.
Race Switching: Allowed between matches, NOT between maps.
Game Invites: Only players and casters will be invited to casted games, no extraneous observers. If players choose to invite observers to non-casted games they are welcome to. The reason for this policy is to present a clean professional stream, encourage viewers to watch the stream, and eliminate as much lag and interruption as possible. Once you have finished a match, please wait for the casted match of the current round to finish before beginning your next match OR get permission to begin from the event admin in the chat channel. We would like to be able to show a variety of players, not follow the same player through the bracket. Also, depending on volunteer availability, the casters may need to be acting as administrators and we want to always have a match to present on stream.
Series Length: All series prior to the finals will be BO3. Finals will be BO5.
Vetoes: Each player will be able to veto one (1) map per match. The higher seeded player will veto first.
