 Here's the updated version of whats going on:I'm excited to announce a new online tournament series for North American players, the Filthy NA Cup Weekly! ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/GKVF5Iy.png) This is a $100 prize pool weekly online tournament, open to all North American players (but only NA players). Every 4th weekly tournament will be open to ALL players globally. First place every week will receive $75, with $25 going to second place. There will also be OSC points awarded for the top 16 finishers. The next of these cups will be held: If this goes well, I may hold larger cups less often as well (monthly? quarterly? tbd). Streams: filthyrake (English) GauntletSC2 (English) The channel will rotate between those two each week. Casters: BobbyAwesome Element Admins: Ascarecrow Bloodrafe Where: The chat channel is FilthyNACup. All games must be played on the NA Ladder. If there is any contention about which NA server to use for a game, the Central server should be used. Define NA Players: Citizens and Permanent Residents of North American countries. No VISA holders. In cases of question/debate, this will be left to the discretion of the admins. Every 4th event will be open to all players, globally. The first such Open event will be Feb 13th, 2016. Global Cups: As mentioned above, every 4th week will be open to all players Globally. The first Global event of 2017 will be on the 3rd of March, 2017. In addition to being open to all players everywhere, it will also have DOUBLE the prize pool ($200, with $150 for 1st and $50 for 2nd) and even more OSC points! Format: The format is bo3 for every round until finals. The finals are a Bo5. Single Elimination. Check-Ins and No-Shows: All players must check in for their match in advance via Challonge. Check-ins begin 30 minutes prior to the event start. Players have 15 minutes from the start-time to show up for their match. This means AFTER you check-in, you have a 15 minute grace period to show up to your match. It does not mean late check-ins will be allowed. Failure to do so will result in a walkover/forfeit. Maps: Map pool is current blizzard ladder maps: Vetoes Vetoes work as below: If your name is higher on the bracket you decide if you are A or B. Player A Veto Player B Veto Player A Veto Player B Veto Player A picks map 1 Player B picks map 2 Last map remaining is map 3. Vetoes for finals work the same, but with only 1 veto each instead of 2. Results: Players are expected to report their own match results on challonge. Players also must submit replays of their matches via challonge. Personal Streams: Players are welcome to stream their own matches, however ALL player streams must have a minimum delay of 5 minutes. Also, players *may* be asked to stop streaming if their streams result in lag issues in-game. Prizing: 1st: $75 and 120 OSC points 2nd: $25 and 60 OSC points 3rd + 4th: 30 OSC points each 5-8th: 10 OSC points each 9-16th: 5 OSC points each OSC: I am super excited to announce that we're partnering up with OSC to offer OSC points and other awesome incentives for participating in the Filthy NA Cup Weekly!

I think it would be a good thing to let Latin Americans player play it increases the value of the tournament, gives latin players more tournaments to play, and allows for better competition. Just my thoughts always supported Latin players. | ||

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_America#Countries.2C_territories.2C_and_dependencies That said, we are exploring the possibility of opening it up more in the future (and, of course, there are always the global events every 4 weeks). So basically, for tomorrow's event - participation is limited to folks from the countries on that wikipedia link. I dont want to change the rules last minute. However, I will investigate the possibility of opening it up for next week. | ||

Hey everyone - based on feedback, interest, and the fact that the NA scene is in a better place than it was last year I've decided to make a big change to the Filthy NA Cup. The non-global weeks are now open to all Citizens and Permanent Residents of the Americas - not just North America. The global weeks will remain unchanged. This change takes effect immediately, and so all Americas players can register for the event this coming Friday. | ||
