But this is a great idea :D It shouldn't, but when you're in the zone and fans keep bothering you, it gives them a place to go and have some peace and quiet for a change. :p Definitely an awesome idea, hope it all works out well! I'm sure the players will all appreciate it! | ||

So when Combat EX gets thru open is he aloud in the lounge ? CombatEX has not applied yet. If the community wishes a player in the lounge, they need to tell us. Post here. Post in Reddit. Get the word out. Go on their stream and tell them to apply. | ||

Once we know all the players who wish to attend (by the fact that they applied), we will make the decision on who is in (based on community demand). We wish we could take everyone. My biggest concern is that a big team like EG will fail to apply then expect to get in. We want to be fair to everyone. This means that we will hold everyone to the same standard. The Liquid Team just applied. Their seeded players are automatically accepted (they still had to apply), but anyone else is subject to the opinion of the community. Personally-- I would be surprised if someone on the Liquid Team wasn't popular enough with the community to get in. On a more personal note: for those who know me and have been to my events, you know that I never want to exclude anyone. The BlizzCon party last year was open to everyone. At this year's BlizzCon party we will do the same. There is only a finite amount of space to work with here. I am trying to juggle the needs of the players with the needs of the greater Starcraft community (not just the TL community). Media and Sponsors must be secondary to these needs. I am surprised that this isn't on the front page of /r/Starcraft, given the fact that this should be the biggest series of AMAs ever for that community. This isn't just a Team Liquid event-- this is a pan-Starcraft event. I am confident that this will be an amazing event and I am personally thankful for the trust that the community continues to place in us. | ||

The problem of Open Bracket players (like Thorzain at Columbus) was that there was no time between matches to eat/drink etc. - and even if there was a bit of downtime, no one could use it in fear of missing their next match. So going into this lounge while playing in the OB is pretty much impossible. edit: if Ibsen makes a deal with MLG so they know they can quickly check and fetch players from the lounge, it might work for OB players. | ||
