Recaps
If you only want to watch the finals games or if you're just too damn lazy to download the games yourself, there are writeups and summaries of the games after each Wednesday and Friday. Team Liquid's very own moderators Manifesto7 and ManaBlue will be your reporters. They always include pictures and I like pictures. OctoPuSs has recently become a mod for TL.net! (Congratulations!) He is pitching in some recaps as well.

Results and Standings of Group of 24 (24 강):
These will be played with 6 groups of 4. They will play a round robin with each player playing all the players in the group once. The top two automatically advancing to the 16-player tournament. The fourth places will have to say goodbye to their chances at winning and will get a seat in the ODT qualifying tournament for the next OSL. Third places advance to the wildcard round.
As to the standings what if two people have the same record? Who is over the other? If two players are tied with the same record, there is no need for a tiebreaker. They just look at the game played between the two players and the winner of that gets the higher rank. (ie. ChOJJa and Cloud both have 2-1, but since Cloud won the Cloud vs ChOJJa match, he gets a higher seat than ChOJJa). What if three player are tied? Well then a tiebreaker is played because A>B, B>C, but C>A. Tiebreakers are played like a 3-player round robin. Everyone plays everyone once. The person to win both games will get the top spot the tiebreaker is played for. 1-1 gets second and 0-2 gets third. The order tiebreaker games are played depend on whoever wins the first game. But what if everyone goes 1-1? Then the tiebreaker will have to be redone (un)fortunately.

Results and Standings of 3rd place Wildcards:
The 3rd places from each of the six groups in the group of 24 will have to each play a best of three against another 3rd placer. The (3) winners of those best of threes will advance to the 16 player tournament that already has 12 players from the group play (for a total of 15). The losers of the wildcard matches will go into a tiebreaker for the last wildcard spot (W4). The first wildcarder to go 2-0 in the tiebreaker will get to advance to the tournament. Going 1-1 and 0-2 leaves them no dice and they will only get a meager ticket to the ODT qualifiers for the next OSL. Matchups will be A3-B3, C3-D3, and E3-F3.

The round of 16 (Sweet 16) will be best of three series. Winners will advance to quarterfinals. Quarterfinals (Elite 8) will also be best of three. The winners will play in the semifinal. Losers, (not sure about this), will play for the 5th and 6th seeds. Semifinals (Final 4) will be best of five as will the Finals. Here is a picture of the empty bracket stolen from Honest Tea's thread. HonestTea is one of the people that really make this forum tick. Please give him your , despite his humbleness.

Final 4 (Semifinals) Results and Standings
The Final 4 will finally (laff) be a best of 5. The two matches will be played on separate days of course, one series in one day. (I still think they should spread out a series over 2 days. What if it's a Terran vs Terran slugfest? A 5-game series with hour long matches? 5 hours is pretty dang long.)
