Did you receive an email saying we received your application and 3 'directions' on 'what to expect from here?' If so, you'll notice if you re-read that I noted there will be no initial contact until this weekend (3/9-3/11). If you did not receive that email at all - it means we did not get your application. So please PM me if that is the case. EDIT: I just checked the spam folder and found 1, possibly 2 emails that may not have been received. Will be replying soon. Thanks, Mike | ||

1. It looks like at this point we will likely be seeding the entire applicant group into the first recruitment tournament on Friday/Saturday 3/22-3/23. Hopefully everyone who has applied will be able to make it to that first tournament. 2. We have contacted the top 16 or so applicants today (Sunday) and will be in touch with more of you by the day. 3. If you are not contacted early, do not fret. I will be expanding contact more every day as the application deadline draws closer. I am only one person, so please be patient if you don't hear back super early. 4. The application deadline is now pushed back to Tuesday 3/19 following MLG Dallas. Note: This will -NOT- push any of the other dates back. 5. Tournament details: Map pool, Brackets, Finalized start times, etc will be emailed out by Tuesday 3/19 -AT THE LATEST- but may be sent out as early as Saturday 3/16. 6. Follow the following twitter accounts for more frequent updates: @Clarity_Gaming & @WinterSC2 Thanks! | ||

First of all I would like to thank everyone for their patience this week. I'm sure many of you were eager to get some initial contact and were disappointed when none came. I actually had a much busier week than I originally thought and am now out of town for the weekend and through early next week. Because of that I ended up not making any further contact with players past the initial 16 'stand out' applicants. Despite not reaching out past those 16, there are still a many more of you I am interested in talking more with. I intend to do that starting sometime mid next week after I return home. What you need to know: 1. Once you've been added to the skype group you will have access to more frequent updates from myself concerning events going on throughout the week outside of the recruitment tournaments. 2. We have a total of 52 applicants. -EVERYONE- will be seeded into the -FIRST- recruitment tournament on Friday 3/22 - Saturday 3/23. 3. Depending on how close we feel the competition (skill gap) is between the bottom 20 or so players will determine if we seed more than 32 players in tournaments 2 and 3. 4. Outside of the tournaments, our 'daily' events will be another avenue to show off your prowess as a player outside of streaming and ladder stats. Every 51 of your will have access to these events if you so choose. 5. Recruitment tournament #1 Brackets will be finalized and emailed out on Tuesday 2/19 after the application deadline passes. 6. -ALL- tournaments, events, etc will be played on Heart of the Swarm. Tournament Details & Final Information: Map Pool: 1. MLG Akilon Wastes 2. MLG Bel'Shi Vestige LE 3. MLG Daybreak LE 4. MLG Neo Planet S LE 5. MLG Newkirk City/Precinct 6. MLG Cloud Kingdom LE 7. MLG Whirlwind LE Schedule - Recruitment Tournament #1: + Show Spoiler + Friday 3/22: Ro. 64 through Ro. 8 Single Elimination BO3 Format 7:30-8PM EST - Check-in Starting Map 8PM EST Ro. 64 BO3 Daybreak 9PM EST Ro. 32 BO3 Akilon Wastes 10PM EST Ro. 16 BO3 Cloud Kingdom 11PM EST Ro. 8 BO3 Bel'Shire Vestige **Note: -ALL- Ro. 8 players will advance to Saturday play. Saturday 3/23 Ro. 4 winners/losers bracket through Finals BO3 Double Elimination. 8:30-9PM EST Check-in 9PM EST Ro. 4 Winners/Losers: Newkirk Precinct 10PM EST Winners Finals, Losers Finals: Whirlwind 11PM EST Loser's grand finals & Winner's grand finals: Akilon Wastes **Note: Top 4 placers will advance to the final recruitment tournament #4 and will NOT be able to play in recruitment tournament #2 and/or #3. Recruitment Tournaments #2 & #3: **Note: These will follow the same timeframe/schedule as tournament #1, with the exception that the Ro. 64 -may not- be included. That is TBD following the first tournament. Recruitment Tournament #2: Friday 3/29 Saturday 3/30 Recruitment Tournament #3: Friday 4/5 Saturday 4/6 Recruitment Finals #4: 16 man Double Elimination BO3: Saturday 4/13 Important notes about the tournaments: 1. The Finals Tournament #4 will be cast in full. 2. I am hoping to have the Saturday play of Tournaments #1-3 cast as well. This will be finalized later next week. 3. I will likely stream the Friday play of tournaments #1-3 if I can manage that in addition to running the tournaments. This will also depend on how much additional help I have with running each tournament. 4. Tournament rules are listed below. They will follow the basic MLG open bracket rules. If it is not listed, please ask an admin prior to the match. Tournament Rules: + Show Spoiler + 1. Each match is a BO3. The Starting maps will be announced on the brackets and again prior to each round. 2. Each player is allowed to veto 1 map from the 7 map pool. Leaving four (4) maps remaining excluding the starting map (which may not be veto'd). 3. The loser of the previous game picks the next map. 4A. Spectators are allowed -only- if both players agree to them prior to the match. 4B. A player or an admin may rescind their spectator agreement at any point during the match or tournament. 5. Spectators will -not- be allowed in any game being cast officially for the tournament. 6. Disconnects/Drops: 6A. If a player drops before the 5 minute mark the game must be replayed unless both players agree to resume from replay. 6B. If a player drops past the 5 minute mark the game will be resumed from replay unless an Admin declares an imminent victory to either one of the players. 7. Players must be set to "busy," while their match is in progress. 8A. Players have up to 5 minutes in between games to take a break, choose next map, etc. 8B.

A player caught cheating in any way will be disqualified from the immediate tournament following an initial investigation. If evidence is 100% irrefutable the said player will be cut from the Academy process moving forward. 11A.
