It's WCG time of the year again! Of course it wouldn't be WCG without the usual WTFWCG stuff such as; last minute broodwar announcement, same outdated maps for bo3's. no invites from last year.
And this year we have a new twist, sc2beta syndrome. Who will qualify or even play this year? Who's good anymore? Who's practicing bw still? omg wtf such burning questions!!!
Regardless of all these questions qualifier sign ups are open here as usual:
Format
Very similar to last year minus the invitational tournament. There will be 8 weeklong online qualifiers running on various weeks ranging from April 26th through August 8th. (Last year 10 players represented USA, this year only 8 since no invites???)
Rules
Rules Handout: LINK Competition Guide: LINK Each qualifier will be a single elimination bracket until the final four which will be double elimination. All matches will be bo3 on Blue Storm -> Python -> Tau Cross (same outdated maps as last year wtf WCG!?!)

I'll try to keep this thread updated as well as I can! everyone in the USA should go signup and play, despite everything we say WCG is still amazingly awesome and broodwar is still ridiculously epic.
USA FINALS DATE AND LOCATION: September 10th-12th in LA!

I want to see Nony ripping through wcg. His performance in TSL2 kept me entertained the whole time.

Is it really necessary to wait till the day of the tourney to make the brackets? Would be nice to know ahead of time if you are going to have a bye so you can plan on doing something else, or have an idea of who you are playing so you can practice if you want..

Yay!!!!!! I'm so excited, even though I'm gonna get totally owned. Hopefully the gosus are too busy with SC2.

O, like WCG being worthless like every year and not making brackets for the FINAL 4? Going to have to work on my abilities to predict what non existent rules will be made up in the future to cover worthless admins.

They give you $250 to "cover travel expenses". The rest is up to you, but that should cover most of it. They say they cover your meals BUT THEY DONT. GOD DAMN I WAS HUNGRY.

Someone who joined my channel and informed me that he doesn't play protoss, so I say what do you play, and he says "I play protoss, except against terran; I ZVT." You might not want to talk to him unless you want to be amused.
