Only one week left until our top 8 players fight for a $200 winner-take-all prize pool and leading up to the event, we will be airing 5 players rise to one of these positions by streaming all their games @ 8p EST Monday through Friday starting with Chrian on Monday! You can watch on
SPGL Northeast.

Monday - Chrian
Tuesday - RomanDragon
Thursday - KillerUnit
Friday - Boyo

[image loading]

When
November 17, 2012

Start time
Everyone @ 1p EST


Check-ins?
You are 1 hour(12a) before tournament start for each region up until 10 minutes prior to start. Players will be required to enter and remain in chat channels during the event. There is only one chat channel for this event.
spgl northeast


Map Pool
There are 7 maps in the map pool.
TSL4 Daybreak
TSL4 Cloud Kingdom
TSL4 Antiga Shipyard
TSL4 Metropolis
TSL4 Ohana
TSL4 Entombed Valley
Rust in Peace

All maps are cloaked.

The official rules are being updated on the website, but check the spoiler for all your needs.
+ Show Spoiler +
Tournament/Group Play
1) All participants must represent themselves and play in a region they are a current resident of. College players will use their home state as residence when selecting the region to compete in.
2) If a player is late by 15 minutes to a game without getting an OK from both his opponent and a tournament official, that player’s series will be forfeited.
3) All tournaments will be played in a Bo3 double elimination style except for 1st and 3rd place matches which will both be done as a Bo5 series.
4) If your games are in the lower bracket and are at least 2 rounds behind, a 5 minute break max is allowed. Anything longer without consent of an official will result in a forfeit of the series.
5) Extended breaks may be taken pending estimated game time and clearance from the tournament official. Players should remain close by their PC in case contact must be made.
6) Tournaments WILL NOT use the extended series rules. However, the 1st place match will award a 1-0 advantage to the player that remained in the upper bracket.
7) Maps will be chosen from the current map pool and ONLY from the current map pool when deciding play. If there is an issue in the map pool (such as maps being no longer supported), officials will make an announcement stating the change.
8) No map may be repeated in the same series.
9) Players may only compete in the tournaments which they have been signed-up for, or invited to.
10) No observers, other than those permitted by a tournament official, may join a tournament game as a spectator.
11) Players must set themselves to Busy while playing.
12) Streaming of tournament play is allowed unless a player is being casted. Doing so will result in a warning for the first offense, and a loss of series for the second offense. Penalties do not carry over from tournament to tournament. I strongly encourage players who stream to direct viewers to watch via the tournament stream.
-This is not to harm player’s income, but to help us continue to provide higher quality production, as well as support our sponsors.
13) In the issue of “Bad Manners” (BM): please take a screen shot of the BM and notify an official or admin only. Tournament officials will handle Bad Manner issues and the resulting consequences. Do not publicly post the incident. Advertising BM publicly may result in similar disciplinary actions.
14) If you have hardware or lag issues, let an official know. Rulings will be handled based on the extremity of the issue.
15) Players are to follow all instructions from tournament officials unless plausible reasons are given.
16) Race swapping is not allowed. However, players are allowed to change their main race between tournaments.
17) If your game is being casted, an admin will notify you. Notify the admin of your first map choice and they will create the game so that all necessary people are in the match. The admin will continue to create each game.
18) If a player has reason for a dispute against the rules, email drogith@nesc2league.com within 24 hours. The dispute will then be reviewed by all officials, and a vote taken. You will then be informed of the outcome. If there is any change made, it will be announced to the public

Map Selection

1) In tournaments, the top player on the bracket is considered the higher seed. This is random seeding unless past matches prove otherwise.
2) In group play, the top player in the group is considered the higher seed. This is completely random initial seeding.
3) In a Bo3, both players veto a single map.
a) Players take turns eliminating maps until one map is left starting with higher seed.
b) Loser chooses next map.
c) Vetoed maps can not be chosen.
4) In a Bo5, no maps are vetoed.
a) Players take turns eliminating maps until one map is left starting with higher seed.
b) Loser chooses next map.

The Semi-Pro Gaming League is a competitive organization devoted to building up the middle ground in eSports, That area betweeen ladder hero and pro player. The league is divided up into 3 tiers: Premier, Main, and Open. Through tournament held once a month, each tier feeds into the next with Open being open for anyone to join all the way up to Premier. Place top in the Premier tournament, and you are looking at winning cash prizes and possibly some invites to events outside of SPGL.

I already spoke with Complexity about that. Everything has been cleared since he may be on the team and in the house, he doesn't exactly get a salary.
