Unfortunately due to being called in and having to work all day + finals next week there is just no way I am going to be ready for this tomorrow.
Due to the success and popularity of our D/D- tournament we felt it was time for another lower-level player tournament. The D-/D guys have had their turn, so now its time for all of you at D+ to get your own go at tournament play!
***Since the tournament has not yet filled signups are now open to people who hold D rank.***
Organization: L_Master
Casters: L_Master
Location: ICCup
Channel: op sGs D+ Open
Start Date: Sunday, December 11
Time: 19:00 CET; 1:00 PM EST (Converted Time: 18:00 GMT (+00:00))
Maximum Player Number: 32
Format: 32 Player Single Elimination Tournament (BO5 Finals)
Map Pool:
RO32 - Circuit Breaker
RO16- La Mancha
RO8 - Outside
Semi-Finals - Icarus
Finals - Set 1 is on Fighting Spirit; after that loser picks map from pool of (Fighting Spirit, Circuit Breakers, Pathfinder, Outsider, Icarus, La Mancha, Neo Aztec, Neo Beltway, New Bloody Ridge)
WHO: Legit D+ Players only. If you have been C- or better in the past six months please don't join. This is a for fun tournament to give D+ players a chance to play in a tournament setting. After this I will be hosting a C ranks type tournament so you guys will get your chance to play as well.
If we don't get 32 D+ players I will open sign-ups to D ranked players that would like to play.
Sign ups are only through TL at this time to help prevent smurfing. You do NOT have to be a member of sGs to sign up. The only requirements are that you'll be available to play the whole tourney if necessary and that you have a MAX rank of D+.

Okay, seeing the way the poll is trending I'm thinking this: Play the RO32, 16, 8 on the scheduled date with me casting the round of 32 tournament weekend, then RO16/8 casted the next weekend. Semi's/Finals would then be played 2 weeks from the tournament date and be casted live.
That way all matches get casted but everyone gets to enjoy the fun of a live finals and players get a chance to prepare for opponents/maps/builds.

Ok I'm in!

Yea, it'd bad for people over in Asia/Australia but I tried to make it EU friendly with it being manageable for NA.

Is it possible to make it a double elimination?
Single elim was incredibly frustrating for a lot of players in the D open.

Gu.Tetraspace - ZvT, PvZ, ZvP
I will play if there's any way I can join the tourney roughly 3 hours later.

It's something I'll consider as I do understand why singe elimination can suck; however, the problem is it adds a significant amount of time to the tourney as well as to the casting time.

What if you only cast the final game of each set?
