To encourage lower league players, we’ll be awarding “top finisher” badges to the players who achieve the highest finish respective of their ladder league. For example, the Silver player who makes it the deepest in the tournament will receive recognition during the broadcast for their achievement.
As there will probably be a number of ties for this category, we’ll end up running side-tournaments for any players that tied in their league. We want this system gives players of all skill levels a chance to be competitive at some time throughout the tournament!

MWC5 Top Finishers
Master - EON
Diamond - Rengen
Platinum - Roka
Gold - DjSpectre
Silver - no competitors
Bronze - no competitors

All players must live in the Midwest. To verify this, you’ll need to get a picture of your driver’s license (or other government-issued photo ID) and black out the personal information except for your picture, first name, and state. Then include that picture in your registration form. For an example of a good picture that proves residency, check out my lovely mugshot: http://imgur.com/Vq9rzTb
