The news about this is already on fomos.kr and wfbrood, but I'm too lazy to translate this >.<

edit. scroll down and you will see the translation about this made by Carnivorous Sheep

차기 MSL에 진출할 선수들을 뽑는 2009 MSL 서바이버 토너먼트 시즌1의 오프라인 예선전이 오는 4월 2일 펼쳐진다. 이스트로의 박문기는 서바이버 불참을 알리며 은퇴 공시가 임박한 것으로 보인다.

이번 예선전에서는 그 동안의 예선전과는 달리 25명의 선수를 선발할 예정이다. 바로 이스트로의 박문기가 서바이버 토너먼트 불참을 알려왔기 때문.

그 동안 e스포츠 커뮤니티의 큰 화제거리였던 박문기의 은퇴설은 이번 서바이버 토너먼트 불참 선언으로 확실해진 것으로 보인다.

MBC게임 관계자는 "이스트로 박문기가 서바이버 불참을 선언했기 때문에 이번 예선에서 25명의 선수를 선발한다"며 "자세한 예선전 일정과 대진은 조만간 공개될 예정"이라고 말했다.

下届MSL网吧预选赛将于4月2日进行,本届MSL 32强之一的maGma[S.G]将不参加这次网吧预选。
韩国有传言称maGma[S.G]即将退役,这一说法目前来看基本已成定局。由于 maGma[S.G]弃权,因此下届MSL网吧预选赛将决出25名选手晋级,以填补maGma[S.G]的空缺。

Quick translation:

The qualifier rounds for the next MSL will take place on April 2. Magma, who made it to the Ro32 of this MSL, will not be participating. There have been rumors that Magma will retire soon, and it would seem that this is becoming a reality. Because of his forfeit, the qualifiers will produce 25 players to advance to fill Magmas spot.

I think it just means that instead of 24 people advancing, one more will advance to fill Magma's spot that he got from getting to the Ro32 (didn't know Ro32 got seeds =O).

Most likely just going to be something similar to what happened to BackHo's spot, only this time predetermined.

Normal round till 24 are filled, and all the losers can battle out for one last final spot. At least would be my way of solving it simple.

Wait... so if Magma made it to the Ro32, why not just keep playing until you get knocked out? This doesn't add up. I guess Hyvaa was taking his spotlight when he dominated in WL.

Doesn't sound simple. Better solution is 25 qualifier groups instead of 24, that fixes it.
