Please read rule #13 about the maps.
Also, even with the brackets being randomized at the end of the day Wednesday's, they won't be listed on AltitudeISL.net or Liquipedia until mid-Thursday.

Qualifier 3 brackets are up!!

After receiving a generous sponsorship from Altitude for Altitude's International StarLeague and indulging in an abundance of Godiva milk chocolate, I felt that the Brood War community needed a treat as well. As some might know, I choreographed ISL1, in which the replays were released, and ISL2, in which the replays have been collecting dust in my archives. Today, that ceases to be a truth.

Simply put, you can now download not only the ISL2 replays from AltitudeISL.net front page, but every single qualifier's replays after the completion of the casts, inclusive, but not limited to this qualifier.

That's just when sign ups open, and you have priority so it's not as if you won't get in if you sign up the morning after.

Hm I registered but can we goto any qualifier or we have to say before hand if we're going, and if that is the case can we drop out at any time or does that count as one of your 3 trials?

When you register, you register for the qualifier THAT week. Don't know why you registered already, since it doesn't open until 22CET tomorrow. If you drop out, it will count against your 3 tries, or else you could screw everyone. The only time that you can drop out once you have registered is before the brackets will be randomized (see above).

Me and LocDog just went over this (only mention him because of your friendship). The IP's will be strictly for tracing, I want to see inside of your windows from my computer. I have all ISL1 and ISL2 IP's stored on my computer, and will match locations.

Is there a reason we have to hand in our full name?
