So they informed ESL and Blizzard to let them prepare in case Jim would not be able to attend. There is still time left before the appointment on Monday and they are working hard. This is unfortunate  The whole hukou system is quite frustrating. Seems you have to go back to your hukou for almost everything. Fortunately for them Guangdong is quite close to Hunan (though depending on which cities were involved close may be a poor choice of words), but troublesome nonetheless.Seems grim but hopefully Jim can somehow make it. His presence would certainly add an interesting, if not exciting, element to the event. | ||

His presence would certainly add an interesting, if not exciting, element to the event. it is super unfortunate that they always have to go back to their hometown for anything. I currently work in China and my co-workers spend almost 24 hours on the train getting back to their homes.This doesn't even include the time they spend getting to the train and after they get off the train. It is pretty ridiculous. I hope Jim's visas issues will be resolved soon. Glad to see that Blizzard is helping out the process. | ||

It says "No matter the outcome, Jim will still receive all WCS Points and prize money he earned from his performance in WCS America thus far, including the League Finals." "League Finals" and "Season Finals" could mean 2 different things, as in league = america finals. And since it also says "Should an invitation be offered to aLive, his acceptance will make him eligible to receive WCS Points and prize money awarded for participating in the Season 2 Finals." I would assume that aLive earns the $5000 (instead of Jim) even if he gets 16th place. | ||
