안녕하세요. FBW Cup에 관심을 가져주셔서 감사합니다.
이번 FBW Cup은 처음 열리는 소규모 온라인 대회로서 아직은 규모도, 상금도 적고 앞으로의 일정 또한 불투명한 상태이며 현재까지의 운영 방침으로는 "외국인" 들만을 위한 대회로 꾸며져 있습니다. 스타크래프트라는 게임이 한국/중국이 타 지역에 비해 실력에서 크게 앞서는 만큼, 그 지역의 참가자들이 대회에 참여하게 된다면 밸런스 붕괴를 일으킬 가능성이 크기 때문에 부득이하게 이번 대회에서는 양 지역 참가자들의 신청을 받지 않고 있습니다.
앞으로 대회의 규모가 더 커지거나, 더 많은 사람들이 더 높은 수준의 게임을 보기를 원한다는 가정하에 현 운영 방침이 바뀔 가능성은 있습니다만, 현재로서는 이 규칙을 지켜나갈 예정이며, 이 규칙 때문에 대회에 참가하지 못하게 되는 많은 한국인/중국인 유저분들에게 죄송하다는 말씀을 드립니다.

FBW cup is a new tournament that will be running twice a month exclusively for foreigners. It will emphasize a smooth and consistent tournament experience for the players as the main focus. This topic will serve for all upcoming and current FBW Cups and the OP will be changed to reflect that.
- Date: Saturday, May 19th at 3:30pm EDT (7:30pm GMT)
- Check-in starts an hour prior to start. Tournaments will take place on every 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month.
- Where: Channel "FBW" on USWest.
- Due to there still being reports of chat glitches (albeit rarely) it is encouraged to join the FBW discord as it is the easiest way to contact admins if a problem is to occur. For convenience, on tournament day a channel called #FBW-Cup will be created for all inquiries. More information will be posted closer to the time. The discord link is: https://discord.gg/XtGJnvX
- Format:
- Single elimination
- BO3 until finals. Finals are BO5.
- Starting maps are pre-determined for each round and will be displayed on the challonge bracket. Loser picks next map. Maps cannot be replayed in a series.
- Single elimination
- Prize:
- Each tournament will have a default $15 prize pool with open donations. Prize distribution is split 50/30/10/10 with no third place match required. Pool may increase for future tournaments.
- Rules:
- Turn rate: Dynamic. Other turn rates may be played if agreed upon by both players.
- Player eligibility: No Korean or Chinese IP addresses.
- Disqualification time: Players who do not show up for their matches 15 minutes after start time will be disqualified and removed from the tournament. Players who do not check-in will be removed from the player pool when the tournament starts.
- Banned bugs: Allied mines, cargo glitch, any bug which allows your units to remain stacked while attacking, flying drones & templars, and terran sliding buildings are all banned and will result in disqualification.
- Disconnects: Matches that result in a disconnect will be replayed unless disputed by a player who holds a large advantage.
- Race Restrictions: There are no restrictions on race. Random, race picking, and switching races between a series are all allowed.
- Casting & Replays: Players are not under obligation to have their games casted live. However, winners MUST upload their replays to challonge or send them to me in whichever medium is most convenient for them as soon as their match is finished.
- Turn rate: Dynamic. Other turn rates may be played if agreed upon by both players.

Want To Help?
- Casters - Anyone is free to add their stream to the event and try to cast matches. Players are not responsible for allowing observers into their matches. If you're interested in streaming, PM me and I will give you admin privileges on the challonge bracket so you may download the replays as soon as they are added. Players are allowed to stream their own matches at their own discretion.
- Admins - At the moment I will be handling all issues and helping the tournament run as smoothly as possible, but I am hoping that I can find at least two other people to help with issues and workload during event days.
- Liquipedia - People who are good with wikis are needed to keep an up to date and thorough entry on FBW Cups.
