First of all, thank you TeamLiquid. I love you all <3.
eSports has been growing significantly recently, and I'm sure you've all been getting wiggly and jiggly. I'm sure you've all been getting nerd chills and goosebumps. In the last couple months, we found out about the NASL. Even more recently, we found out about the IGN Pro League. eSports is here and it's here to stay. But some of us just aren't progamers. We don't know how to get there, and can only watch our favorite players, supporting them and cheering them on for them to succeed in what we can't do, to live our dreams.
But with my 1337th post, I thought I'd like to do something very special. A dream project that's now been materialized. A helpful stepping stone for those who want to get serious, competitive, or even for those of you who just want to play casually for fun. Some of you may have been notified about this already, so here are the details. And without further ado...
I present to you all the North American High School Starcraft Team League! But this is more than just your average tournament. The HSSTL will not only host both team and individual style tournaments, but also provide a ranking of all High School players who participate. This way pro teams can see who the best of the best are and you can get your shot at fame and fortune. The HSSTL will provide a list of people and teams who are welcome to teaching you and giving you a spot on their roster.

We will be using the most relevant GSTL Map Pool, which is from GSTL March; the GSTL before the recent GSTL WC.
For each week, a new selection of 7 maps out of the following 9 will be posted. A new selection will be posted for each round of the HSSTL. These selections' maps are to be played in order and cannot be altered. For the Grand Finals and/or Bracket, we may have Bo9s and therefore use all 9 maps, but this is not determined yet.

CASTING
=================
If you're in a HSL tournament, they have many fine casters!
If you want to help us cast anything, PM us! (please don't post here we may not see it)
This will be a good way for people who want to practice or try to get their name out there

CHEATING

C'mon, really? Don't cheat. It's not cool.
[spoiler]If you're not in high school, we will hunt you down and eat you (alive or dead, up to you, although it may depend if we have a grill with us or not).
If you're smurfing, we will eat you too.
If we suspect you may be smurfing, hacking, cheating, or pretending to be a little kid not in college or older, then you will receive severe severe penalties. Not only for you, but the entire team. AKA, permanent ban forever and ever.
I may not sound serious, but we will take it very seriously.[/spoiler]
Repeat: ANY ILLEGAL PLAYER ON ANY HIGH SCHOOL TEAM WILL LEAD TO A PERMANENT BAN FOR EVERYONE IN THAT TEAM. COORDINATORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR KNOWING WHERE THEIR FOREIGN PLAYERS ARE FROM.

Update Achievements
+ Show Spoiler +
We're going to be making some fun Achievements for Style Points! Style Points will not determine who wins a match, tournament, showmatch, or any kind of event, except to see what Individual and Team can accumulate the most! The winning Individual and Team will also be put in our Hall of Fame. These will not only encourage competition in a different kind of manner, but encourage players to try new things and hopefully diversify and improve the gameplay experience for both players and spectators.
For example,
Un-poked Bunny - 1337 points: Survived 4 cheeses in a Bo7 Team Match.
or
TvT Mech - 10 points: Won a TvT where most of your units were Factory units.
or
Boxer Rebellion - 20 points: Won 10 sets with an SCV All-In.
Users will have to apply for Achievements themselves, attaching the replays and naming the replays appropriately. More details on how to do this later! ^_^

Each team can only have up to 4 foreign players! Foreign as in, from a different school!
If you want to leave your team as a foreign player, you MUST be traded with another player or after a season (if/when implemented). Choose your team wisely! You can't just freelance and screw up people's plans, teamwork, and schedules! Pick a team and stay committed as a team member!
You can have more than 1 team from each High School.
Teams have no minimum amount, although it should be obviously beneficial to have at least 5 players so you can play all 5 matches in a Bo7 Team Match. You can sign yourself up as a 1 man team and just play the Individual Events. Teams need to have at least 5 people on them. This will encourage people to look for and recruit other players to get them involved with eSports. There is also no maximum amount.
To qualify as a high schooler, you must be in high school at the beginning of a season.

SPONSORS & DONATIONS
=================
As of now, we have no sponsors. If anyone is interested in helping out, please PM me.
If you want to donate, all money will be greatly appreciated and go towards the tournament via prize pool (most likely the Team League Finals, since that is the focus of the HSSTL).
=================
CASTING
=================
If you're in a HSL tournament, they have many fine casters!
If you want to help us cast anything, PM us! (please don't post here we may not see it)
This will be a good way for people who want to practice or try to get their name out there
=================
CHEATING
=================
C'mon, really? Don't cheat. It's not cool.
[spoiler]If you're not in high school, we will hunt you down and eat you (alive or dead, up to you, although it may depend if we have a grill with us or not).
If you're smurfing, we will eat you too.
If we suspect you may be smurfing, hacking, cheating, or pretending to be a little kid not in college or older, then you will receive severe severe penalties. Not only for you, but the entire team. AKA, permanent ban forever and ever.
I may not sound serious, but we will take it very seriously.[/spoiler]
Repeat: ANY ILLEGAL PLAYER ON ANY HIGH SCHOOL TEAM WILL LEAD TO A PERMANENT BAN FOR EVERYONE IN THAT TEAM. COORDINATORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR KNOWING WHERE THEIR FOREIGN PLAYERS ARE FROM.
=================
CONTACTS

IN CLOSING
=================
For the community, we hope the HSSTL will be a great success. But whether or not it will become one will be decided by you, the community. So please, share feedback, comments, and anything here! Let's all partake in another step in eSports history, and do it in the name of Starcraft!
CROSS-REGION SERVER ISSUE
=================
Obviously, because we can't play cross-region, this will only be for the North American League. If anyone in another server wants to start one up, then feel free to join us and ask for help!
IF YOU'RE NOT IN NORTH AMERICA BUT HAVE A NORTH AMERICA ACCOUNT, FEEL FREE TO JOIN!+ Show Spoiler +
