I recommend the OP put an "OVERALL RESULTS" in the first post. The lack of it made the Day 1 thread extremely annoying. At the very least, a link to the liquipedia page with the results.

Also, could you add time brackets around your times? like this: 19:00 GMT (+00:00)
On other hand, europe fighting!

It's A1 vs D2 etc so it will probably be Stephano vs Parting, Violet vs Squirtle, SaSe vs MC and TaeJa vs Bomber

Lol at the photo sets, Bomber is tagged as Parting and Parting tagged as Squirtle. Someone is not watching GSL...

I don't know if only mods can do this, but to please the international crowd, could you please change the time function so that they automatically display as the users local preference? It's a great feature, everyone should use it ^^

First off, thanks for creating the last and this LR thread, but I'd suggest using the [time] forum code for the schedule once it becomes available. It really makes things easier for international viewers

Haha, I actually didn't notice that. Wonder what they will do if a series goes to a 7th game.
