Hello Everyone!

I’m excited to be able to announce the first Antarctic Cup tournament hosted by www.z33k.com! On behalf of the organization team, I’d like to invite anyone and everyone to participate in this hopefully awesome tournament boasting a prize pool of $250. The tournament will be played on the 17th of December on the European server at 20:00 CEST (Check in begins 19:30 CEST). This event will be cast from replays, so we would like to request that you do not stream your games. Do feel free to redirect your fans and viewers to our stream for the casting of the tournament though!

Link to the event: http://www.z33k.com/z/da6

Rough Playing Schedule (subject to accommodation):
Naturally, we understand that games can go on for ages, so if you’re late for a game because of your previous round, we will understand. We would like to aim to start as close to these times as possible (or earlier, if both players are ready), but if your opponent happens to have a best of 3 with 3 intensely long games, do have some sympathy!

Round of 256: 20:00
Round of 128: 20:30
Round of 64: 21:00
Round of 32: 21:30
Round of 16: 22:00
Round of 8: 22:45
Round of 4: 23:30
Final/Third Place: 00:30

This event will be cast by PengWin and Shan on www.twitch.tv/pengwin_sc. Check out some of their casts at www.youtube.com/nungael (PengWin) or www.youtube.com/shankendorin (Shan).

Anyone else notice the irony of the Antarctic Cup being played on the European server?

Maybe try calling it Capture the North Pole #1 or something.

Sadly, we weren't able to convince Blizz to open an Antarctica server for the tournament, so we had to relocate to EU.

Mainly because I'm PengWin (Penguin) and I'm organizing it, and then everyone who's helping me liked the name so we stuck with it.

We'll see. I'd like the prize pool to draw some pretty high level players. Might be a good chance to test yourself

A link to the tourney page would be super-helpful!

Hope peepz are strongly considering signing up. Quite a bit of cash for grabs!!!!

I guess my spell check malfunctioned. And DoomsVille, everyone knows Antarctica is the capital of Bulgaria. God.

Preemptively defending against people who take this literally and think I actually think Antarctica is in Bulgaria.
