UPDATE

We have had a LOT of sign ups! Thanks!
However, we will only have room to have a 64 man tournament at most. So here's the kicker: tournament participation will be based on a FIRST COME FIRST SERVE basis for competitors. The earlier you sign up, the higher the chance you're guaranteed a spot in the tournament.

Once again, thanks for signing up! Hope to see you all there!

I veto Shakuras Plateau and Jungle Basin. I never played these maps. Can you veto maps in this tournament?

Yeah I'm concerned about that as well, I'm an hour away as well and I don't know if I want to get there and find out I can't play.

How about the first 64 to sign up online have a guaranteed spot if you get there 30 mins before the tourney starts. If you're not there by that time, you forfeit your spot to someone else who is there and was later to sign up?

Also could you post the list of players with priority (if you decide to do this). Spending time to pack up my computer (along with the friends I am coming with) and drive an hour+ and being told I'm not able to play really sucks. I might still come but I wouldn't want to bring my computer if I'm not playing in the tournament.

Hey guys so looks like we got a bunch of people coming from further away.

Here's what i'll do to make it a little fairer: To RESERVE a spot in the tournament a reservation fee will be included. The reservation fee will be $5.00 on top of the $10.00 entrance fee of all competitors. With the reservation you will be guaranteed a spot in the tournament until 11:00 AM PST, 12 December 2010.

How to reserve:

I will be sending everyone an email with a form on it. First 60 people to submit the form and agree to pay the 5$ will have a GUARANTEED spot in the tournament UNTIL 11:00 AM PST on 12 December 2010.

The first 64 people to submit the form and agree will get a confirmation email saying that they have a guaranteed spot in the tournament.

seriously where is all this money going? can you just be upfront if youre going to profit? all roads seem to suggest that youre making money off of this, and it would be much better to at least tell us that youre going to make money off of it rather than playing us on the assumption that all fees are towards necessary fees + prize pool.

i dont mean to be such a prick but seriously, a little more transparency would just put me at ease. at least say, "the extra money is none of your concern stop asking questions."

I'm not sure where you're getting the idea that I'm making a profit off of this or where is said the month is going to the prize pool. I also have never once mentioned anything about he money, so I really don't know what your concern is regarding that part of the event and what uneasiness you feel is.

But I guess you couldn't take the hint and that's my fault for not being explicit. I'm sorry. Now, the extra money is none your concern stop asking questions. Thanks.

On a different note; Lots of people have signed up so make sure you guys all have a spot guaranteed!

so to be sure we get to play in the tourney after bringing all your equipment we have to pay $15 total or we can pay $10 when we are there and take the risk?
