The IPL 3 seems to be the first tourny that TL has supported so much that they put a count down on the banner.

I don't disagree. The IGN team has been the most dependable and impressive so far. They are the only tournament organizer I would be comfortable giving a large amount of money to ( if I was a sponsor).

Sweet countdown timer, bro. I won't forget for sure now.

Two more weeks. Then all hell breaks loose.

Let's hope IGN executes their first event well. Do better than at least NASL and people will love you haha.

Why are we hiring new Graphic Designers? HotBid is so pro.

Well, presumably IPL 3 paid to have that countdown timer put there if it is sponsored as suggested in the OP.

Also, I'm really disappointed in everyone in this thread thus far. It's a thread about a portal made by HB...

Anyway, here's what was happening behind the scenes that caused that linking mishap in the OP.

I like Huk's cute little nation flag in his player profile.

What is up with HuK's half-Canadian, half-U.S. flag found in Hot_Bid's image directory as us.png.

So If I'm looking at the format correctly, pool play is pretty much completely meaningless? All 16 players get slotted into a single elim tournament, all that a good pool play record will get you is a better seed?

At least in MLG doing good in pool play means less matches to win later..

Not sure I like the sponsored logo in the upper right, but eh. Whatever pays the bills, I guess.

9/16 Koreans in the groups, here's hoping we'll see good people coming up from the Open Bracket.
