Just wanted to touch on the whole foreigner thing. We had originally planned on inviting 6-8 but there were a lot of complications. One of Polt's managers never got back to us, Scarlett doesn't like communication, Snute, Dayshi & Major all had Nation Wars to prioritize, etc etc. Nothing that is any one person's fault, but just coincidence of so many being busy.

This won't be our last tournament, but it'll be a while before we save up enough to try this again. Hopefully the next time is more foreigner time friendly :-) (Although, maybe we could always try the Destiny approach to things)


Hopefully not! The more Koreans the merrier! See Shoutcraft Invitational games and tell me that would have been better with foreigners?
why?

Kinda disappointed from the Protoss roster (well at least Stork is in there ), but will be glad cause of the almost as deep as possible roster of Ts and Zs to watch the tournament (alghough wanna see JD vs Stork finals, no offense to Terrans, except maybe SuperNova if/when he mechs )

Have a quesiton though - what is the "Destiny approach of things" ? (rofl), made me curious that

Hah, that hype video was way better than I expected, good stuff.

The video was really cool. One thing amusing in it is that "supernova dust" is probably origin of life and all bigger elements so essentially when supernova dust settles, life starts. Cool stuff nevertheless

Probably scheduling issues for some of the players/clashes with other tournaments. This weekend for example hosts not only SPL but also Nationwars AND ATC Finals. It must be tough to find the 'perfect' date for a StarCraft tournament as there are so many.

I found it to be quite good.

Tempo's lyrics was smart, and his flow was decent. His flow reminds me of another mc, I just can't put a name on it.

Give it another try, and listen deeper to the lyrics and flow.

Basetrade HYPUUUU!!!!!!!

Can't wait!

I loved the hype video for this.

Should be a great tournament. I do wish there were more foreigners involved just because the most exciting thing to me is "how far can foreigners go" and the best games are games where the underdog wins (or at least puts up a good fight). But that's just me.

I think it is more than just crowdfunding a tourney.

Destiny is also drafting players from the NA ladder, and I think Rifkin is referring to this as the "Destiny approach".

Remember, this particular discussion is about the ratio of koreans to foreigners, not about how to raise funds for the tournament.
