We are heading towards mid may and that means its time to start getting people interested in Clan FaDe's now not quite so monthly Open ^^
Most of the broad details are covered in the promo vid up top so give in to 50 seconds of curiosity and check it out

+ Show Spoiler +
It will be on Saturday, May 21 4:00am GMT (GMT+00:00)
1pm KST - 2PM AEST - 12pm SGT ( in case my use of date bb code is fail ^^; )
Join the chat channel "FO3" no later than 15 minutes prior to the start of the event
Any player pre-registered but doesn't show up 15 minutes prior will forfeit to backup players.
We will be trying a staggered start system so there may be a possibility of getting a spot up to 15 minutes after the start time but there are no guarantees.

Rules
+ Show Spoiler +
Staggered start system: to avoid wait times on the stream and allow a little more time for stragglers to get a piece of the action matches will begin in a staggered start fashion. The top half of the bracket will begin on time with the people falling in the lower half starting 15 minutes later. Key point is listen to admins and DO NOT start your games until your group has been given the go ahead.
Be well mannered
No cheating of any form will be tolerated (including stream viewing while playing)
No observers
If a player is dropped and cannot come to a consensus over who would have won or to replay or not, admins will make a final ruling (if its clear, a winner will be declared otherwise players will need to replay)
