I'd like to know why Anypro and inca backed out?
And also shouldn't you kind of know your Exam schedule from the start of the year or at least a few months in advance?
No .... maybe a few weeks in advance, but even then, professors change things up on you anyways. Not to mention, it's really hard to gauge whether or not you're behind on studying until the week of the exams. He might have thought he had the material under control and then realized no, not really. At least, that's how it rolls with me most of the times.
NaDa must have a good reason, he was probably favorite to take the whole thing. Still, it will be a great tournament, Dreamhack always has the production value to rival the best SC2 tournament out there. We will forget about things like this once it gets underway.

Sometimes its slips our mind that Nada is human. A fairly common misconception.

Yeah, I'm writing exams now (Canadian high school, not Korean university), and I only got my final exam schedule two or three weeks ago.

Lol idunno about 'most stacked'. I'd say GSL code S tourney is a bit 'more stacked' without a doubt. Bummer about Nada & co...
Code S is hardly stacked. Especially not compared to Dreamhack.
Code S is at least 10x as stacked as Dreamhack. You have a few star koreans + some star foreigners + some no name/average foreigners. Hardly anywhere as stacked as any korean tournament.

Why even apply/accept a invite if you are going to have exams that week.
I must have missed some events, but what else have they not been attending? Of course there was the Bomber situation recently, but he was then replaced by a Korean, so I don't know if you could say that they have a hard time to keep promises if another one replaces him.

(ps: wtf is IM doing, they have 4 gsl tourney wins yet they haven't sent their star players overseas once, when the popular demand is off the charts, and they've said they want to compete outside of korea :-s)
MC just recently finished playing in a Chinese tournament...

If you're going to pull numbers, be realistic.
Maybe not 10x but the post he was replying to was a lot more idiotic. How many more foreign events do koreans have to sweep before people get the picture? Too bad MKP isn't attending he finally could've won an event -_-. MC/Bomber will still take 1/2 tho unless they meet earlier on. The rest is up for grabs imo
MKP and Nada not going is a huge downer... I hope MMA replaces MKP (If the schedule for gsl doesn't conflict, which I doubt..). I hope MKP isn't suffering from his recent loss.
EPT
