Guys pls use your power wisely and vote for the best players. Seeing sOs (and to a lesser extent Byun) win the poll is just sad.
I already said it on reddit, maybe it will help a little bit

I'm going by Liquipedia, but has it been changed?

Where are you getting this information? Everything I've seen on TL, liquipedia and in other WCS content indicates it should.

Good Lord, I'm logged in, but can't vote.
You need a character (created in-game) to post on the forums.
Maybe I can't give a damn anymore.

Original announcement said it does but the handbook they released later says it doesn't.

From the WCS rules
4.2. Korea Tournaments
(b) GSL vs. the World. This event will offer no points.

I think they need to rent Ogaming's website for a week...

Inb4 Team Korea just sends INnoVation out first and he all-kills the World in less than an hour.

That's little solace given the fact that a player like ByuN, who has done nothing all year, is going to get a crack at 100,000 prize pool over other equally or even more deserving players because, you know, popularity contest.

Like I said, I agree. If he qualified by his own merit that'd be fine. But there's no way he loses a popularity vote, and that's just unfair (especially given the person this impacts the most is, in fact, the reigning GSL champion).

The same thing is going to happen with Zerg. I think it's pretty safe to assume that a lot of fans with short memories will vote for Dark even though he hasn't done anything to warrant the spot.

If you wanna see a foreigner get rekt Dark is definitely the right choice though historically

Refresh and you should see that you did vote, just the page does nothing. At least that was the case for me.
Also, poor Elazer, he stands no chance against Snute and Scarlett.

Even though current Dark is not 2016 Dark, he is still a force to be reckoned with.
And in this context, there is no other Zerg candidate that's clearly superior to him. (Unlike ByuN)
