I thought about it, but I wasn't sure who would play. Maybe in the future I can do a rank cut off. Like one of the things I thought was like first 2 qualifiers can be opened for D ranks and lower. and the last 2 qualifiers can be opened to everyone. Giving a chance for lower rank people to play... but that's just an idea!
Hope you will play in it :D

got it! I hope a lot of people join :D
Do they have a forum? I just advertised on the chat

Pretty sure they have some forum, everyone is Russian though. However, if there is a mention of money or link to this thread then they will probably participate.

If you want to start the tournament at 8pm EST given on challonge you won't get many Europeans to play in it because this is like 2am or later. So you should consider to hold it a little earlier if possible.

Yeah I can do that for the first day since I won't be casting but still be checking the site. what time you think I should do it? 4pm CST?

Yes, they do, not sure how many of them read the forum though. You have to register on the page and add a topic via the crosshair button at the top - already did it.
Also added it on reps.ru and going to write something short in the upcoming days on broodwar.de.

I'm thinking of changing the days to the 26-27 of Feburary due to my work schedule, will that work for anyone? or I can still do the 27th and have the playoffs the next week?
|
I signed up!
Really regret that I didn't notice the Arcania StarLeague until it was far too late so I'll definitely play in this one.

Hello,
you can not host such events without contact the Administration.
There are the Terms of use and Tour rules to respect and we also can give support and information (for example the 1st-2nd March is scheduled the season reset and the server will be offline for hours)
Msg me via iCCup or skype @ iccup.face
