Is the 3rd & 4th and 5/6th & 7/8th place prizes really the same as Liquipedia suggests? Double elimination differentiates those places. If left the same, there are a couple of matches in the lower bracket without a prize other than a chance to advance in the next round.

Edit: Here's my suggestion for the prizes (assuming top8 paid):
1. $10,000
2. $5,000
3. $2,500
4. $1,000
5-6. $500
7-8. $250

Day 2

Match 1 - Trap vs Stephano

Match 2 - Serral vs soO

Match 3 - Serral vs Trap

Match 4 - Serral vs Bunny

Match 5 - soO vs Trap

Match 6 - Trap vs Bunny

Match 7 -Taeja vs PtitDrogo

Match 8 - Lambo vs Taeja

Match 9 - Solar vs Taeja

Match 10 - Lambo vs Zest


Hmm.. Day 2 bit disappointing for me:
4 games from Trap but only 3 from Serral? O.o
3 games from Taeja, but not Taeja vs Zest? o.O

Maybe it's just me but I feel like Serral and Taeja have the biggest fanbase, from a marketing point of view. Moar ppl to look at those juicy Ads

Thanks for pointing it out; stupid mistake by myself (NarutO). Of course its double elimination. Mistake happened since we were discussing to use the GSL system. I do disagree with your split though. There is nothing wrong with it but we don't want to do the same mistake as a lot of other competitions and be very top heavy so this will be the split.

1. 8000
2. 4000
3. 3000
4. 1500
5. 1000
6. 1000
7. 750
8. 750

This also justifies coming from Korea even if you would "only" make it to top 6.

No matter what direction I would go and choose in terms of games (Naruto here) there would also be one or another fan base disappointed. Thats why we do have Rifkin with BasetradeTV and we have the casters join a 2nd game. Yet as I mentioned before we do have to promote the partners thus cannot make it happen to run all games. Also we want to be able to do first person of every match we show so that goes into account as well. I don't think people will be disappointed^_^

Will the groups be played simultaneously (I mean groups A and B played at the same time, with 8 matches at the same time) or it will be one group at a time (4 matches at a time)?

Neither. Group A will start at showstart, B will start later but not AFTER.
