Round-Robin, point based. 4 players per group. Players with the most points advance to the playoffs. The playoffs will consist of wwo Best of 5's, due to season 1 also having a third position open, there will be a third Bo5 between the losers of the first Bo5s to determine our third Taiwan / Hong Kong / Macau qualified player.

Personally, I think this is a good shot for some of the TTeSports apollos guys. Softball and AK are both pretty strong and the latter of the two has been to Korea for SC2 training before.
Any information on which players are from TW/HK/Macau? Some of the Taiwanese players are kind of prominent but I only know nicholashk for HK players (duh ) Faan sounds Cantonese I'd guess

Whilst I agree with what you said, Flash Wolves seems like a very strong team environment, and maybe San has provided some good practice for them.

Why wouldn't he be playing in WCS EU?
He lives in Taiwan, so better latency could be a good reason.
He was never invited... plus this is difficult to say whether or not he could legitimately represent Taiwan (assuming he is not a Taiwan citizen nor permanent resident). I'm actually quite shocked that he tweeted asking for info about the WCS TW/HK/Macao instead of directly asking the guys at TeSL. They are, after all, the guys who admin this stuff.
Also interesting to remark that he says he can speak Chinese, but is bewildered about this. Then again, this was all pretty sudden and he was probably super-busy with SC2 training.

I am aware of that tweet. However, it is also interesting to remark that San will not be taking place in the WCS NA TW Qualifiers. I think it could be, as mentioned before, an issue of nationality. I am not an official employee of TeSL, so I will refrain from further comment on that topic, but I will say that if it is something that has to do with nationality, then perhaps we need to see Blizzard and TeSL have more open communication between each other.
Overall, it sucks really, it does, considering we only have left over non-NA players qualified for WCS NA Premier league 2014 Season 1. I think Sase deserves a shot.
