Both of them will be at mlg spring arena May 18-20. Up/Down matches are May 21-25. Red Bull Lan is May 25-27. I don't think it's feasible for them to do their up/down matches and red bull, unless Gom moves some groups around and they don't mind dealing with massive jet lag. However, groups aren't out yet and if polt/mc are in diff up/down groups that would make it even harder to move groups around given the tight window they have to play their matches. Now it all makes sense why MKP turned down spring arena and most likely redbull. There's a chance he could end up in up/down which conflicts with red bull. | ||

Naniwa said Day9 gave him 20 hours to decide on accepting his invite, so he turned it down. MKP was probably given a deadline too, so declined since his code s spot wasn't safe. | ||

Polt/MC just need to hope they roll one of the first two days of Up/Down matches. Maybe Chae will be nice and move their two groups to May 21st and 22nd. | ||

Maybe he could replace polt or mc! that would be smart actually, lets the other two play for code S On May 17 2012 09:09 Fionn wrote: Polt/MC just need to hope they roll one of the first two days of Up/Down matches.

They can't play in the first day because they will be in NY for spring arena till May 20th. How long is a flight from NY to Korea, 12-15 hours? Plus korea time is ahead too, so it's not possible for them to fly out from NY sunday night and play in korea Monday. The earliest they can play is tuesday.

MKP beats yugi-oh tonight, which clears his schedule for red bull. MC forfeits his red bull spot and MKP is his replacement, since MC replaced MKP for spring arena.  | ||

Was going to go, but not for 40 bucks(good seats) Have you ever gone to one of the esports events? I went to the lone star clash a couple months ago, I think the tickets were like 12 bucks or something, I only went one day and after it was over alls I could think was "wow that was worth so much more" It really is exciting, of course, if you've never been to one it's hard to justify it, maybe just go the second day, thats what I did at the lone star clash, after it was over I'd wished that I had gone both days though. Edit: I also went to the IPL4 in Vegas, I'm freaking hooked, I coupled a vacation from work to visit my fiance's parents, so we were in vegas for 7 days with the last 3 being at the IPL, was so much fun. | ||
