go figure, search function wasn't returning correct query; I researched just to make sure I don't get flamed for reposting, this info was already available; you can lock it or delete the post =-) later

I didn't find info on the 2011 specific tournament schedule here so I lurked around a bit and found this on the gomtv forums. I am not sure whether anyone or only paying customers can see this so I thought I'd relay the information here.

http://www.gomtv.net/2010gslopens3/news/301

2011 GSL Tour

- Code S : 32 players ranked from 1~32
- Code A : 32 players ranked from 33~64(4 recommended foreign players will be seeded, mainly winners of other worldwide tournaments)
- Code B : 172 players that are not in Code S or Code A and are the top ranked players from the Diamond League in the Korean Battle.net server. (Foreign players can always compete in the Preliminary Rounds for Code A disregarding their ladder point.)
- Interaction between Code A and Code S : Up and Down matches
- Interaction between Code B and Code A : Preliminary Rounds for Code A

Broadcast

- Code S : Starts 8pm KST (GMT+9)
- Code A : Starts 6pm KST (GMT+9)

Point Ranking
- Every players start at 0 from the start of 2011.
- Points are given to players after each tournament depending on each players results
- Points are accumulated as the years go by, but for Blizzard Cup and World Championship only the points from that year are applied.

Leagues of 2011 GSL Tour

1. GSL Sponsorship League
2. Super Tournament
3. World Championship
4. GSTL
5. Blizzard Cup


1) GSL Sponsorship League (7 tournaments a year)

Code S
- Ro32 ~ Ro16 Group League
- The 32 highest ranking players of 2010 will be divided into 8 groups of 4.
- The players in each group will play one another and the 1st and 2nd place players will advance to Ro16. (The 3rd and 4th player will have to play in the ‘Up and Down Match’.)
- Ro8 ~ Finals Tournament (Ro8 : best of 3, Semifinals : best of 5, Finals : best of 7)
- One group will play each day.
- Players who advance to Ro16 will remain in Code S.
- The 16 players who fail to qualify for Ro16 will have to play in the ‘Up and Down Match’
- The group will be determined by a public lottery which will be held on the following Monday of each GSL Sponsorship League.

Code A
- Ro32 Full Tournament
- Ro32 ~ Semifinals : Best of 3, Finals : Best of 7
- 4 recommended foreign players will be seeded(Mainly winners of other worldwide tournaments)
- If there are no recommended foreign players, more players will be brought in through the Preliminary Rounds for Code A.
- Players who advance to Ro8 will play in the ‘Up and Down Match’
- Players who advance to Ro16 will remain in Code A.
- Players who fail to qualify for Ro16 will have to go through the Preliminary Rounds for Code A.

Code B
- 172 players that are not in Code S or Code A and are the top ranked players from the Diamond League in the Korean Battle.net server. (Foreign players can always compete in the Preliminary Rounds for Code A disregarding their ladder point.)
- They will play in the Preliminary rounds for Code A.

Up and Down Matches
- Bottom 16 players from Code S and the top 8 players from Code A will compete.
- There will be 8 groups of 3. (2 Code S players and 1 Code A players per group.)
- Champion and the runner-up of the Code A tournament gets to pick their group, the rest of the groups will be randomly selected.
- The 3rd place player from the group league of Code S will play the Code A player in a best of 3 matches. (Winner will be in Code S.)
- The loser of the match will play the 4th place player from the group league of Code S in a best of 3 matches.
- So if you are the 4th place player of each group from the group league of Code S, you only have one opportunity to remain in Code S.

Preliminary Rounds for Code A
- Bottom 16 players of Code A, 172 players from Code B and 4 recommended foreign players will compete. (192 players tournament)

How come code B is only for diamond level players on the Korean server but even American Bronze league noob can participate in code A preliminaries? I know a lot of fantastic players who never ladder so they're in platinum so I'm sure there are similar cases in Korea

They're just trying to get more foreign attention. How many foreign bronze players do you expect to spend > 1000$ to go to Korea only to be guaranteed to be knocked out of a tournament first round?

Then such a 'fantastic player' should be able to invest 20 games into laddering to land diamond.
I know it only took about that long for me to get there, and I'd probably lose in the first round of any half-serious tournament.

Agreed.

The schedule is looking really good, more tournaments should keep the players in korea actively working and some cash flowing. The invitationals and all are the cherry on the cake, different formats are good to switch things up and SC2 won't just be limited to seasonal leagues.
