EPTMatches will begin at 18:30 GMT (+00:00) tomorrow and we will go until either the tournament is over or until all of the remaining competitors decide to postpone the rest of the tournament to sunday.
Hello there fellow TL members.
You may or may not have seen our recruitment post. In conjunction with this little drive of ours, I have decided that the next event in the Teamliquid EVE Tournament Series will be a pair of Starcraft tournaments, one SC2, one BW, to celebrate the game that brought us all together.
As this is meant to supplement the recruitment drive and get more people to join up, the prizes for this tournament will be in both EVE currency and EVE game time.
All games will be played on ICCUP
The games will start on Saturday the 12th, times will be released when I get a better idea on the number of competitors. Times will also be flexible, as we have people from many different parts of the world in EVE.
You may enter both the BW and SC2 tournament, but you can only win prizes in one of them. If you are not going to play EVE and do not want your prize, it will go to the next person.
The prizes are:
1st - 2 PLEX (60 days of game time or ~860 million in ISK)
2nd - 1 PLEX (30 days of game time or ~430m in ISK)
3rd - 300 million ISK.
