I'm so excited for this you guys. I tweeted Nazgul about an idea, but I'll post here as well to see what you all think.

So what if to raise awareness and to do something cool for someone else, we did a "Donate $X/map played" or some other metric to raise money for a charity? People in the US do this all the time when they do 5k's, etc. They ask people to pledge $2 per mile or $10 for every minute they make it in under a certain benchmark or whatever. You could do $50 for every game played beyond set 60 or something like that too. Not sure how feasible it is, so there may be limitations.

I'd be willing to do $1-$2 for every game played to a cool charity I think. Anyways, I can't wait to watch (once I wake up) since I know it'll be going well into my normal day haha.

SNUTE HWAITING!!!!

I wonder how many times we're gonna see the same cheese.

I want to have a betting pool for the number of games won by a player under 7 minutes long or something. I bet we'll see lots of 2 rax, especially if the map pool pulls any #dreampool maps or something similarly cheesy.

Are you sure this can be reasonably finished in just one day? Shouldn't it be scheduled for June 2nd and June 3rd, just in case?

Is there a reason why they chose 69 games? Just curious. I mean really.

I like that you, particularly, asks this question.

Do we need to predict the right order of wins too?

I believe so. I think that Kaelaris solo-casted Snute vs. Grubby maybe? I can't remember haha.

This supports my theory that half of Grubby's popularity is on his looks.

I'm predicting 35-26 Bunny. I feel like if they played 7 different bo9s on different days, Bunny would take them pretty convincingly. However, I feel that the simple mechanical nature of macro Zerg play, especially if Snute draws Bunny into 4M play, will perform much better as the players tire.

Well, I hope Bunny doesn't draw more than 1 Zerg in his WCS group now. That's gonna be some great research available.

mmm i predict 42 out of the 69 games will be cheese, at least one game will end up in a draw, and someone's shirt will be off by the end of the stream.
