What kind of skill level enters the cup? I imagine later stages are always high level diamond, but do you ever get say platinum players entering for the fun of it?

I'll tell you my experience with this cup so i signed up for the cup and saw that my first opponent was some 2300 player, while I am only 1700. obviously my chances were slim, but because this isn't a story about me it is irrelevant. Somehow I managed to win and my opponent it seems ragequitted and reported a win. I was a bit confused at first coz the site didn't accept me as the winner, but then i realized that the opponent was probably BM. In the meantime (1min max after the game finished) i get a message from the head admin of the cup saying that it seems that i have some problems, he checked my match history and solved everything.
To be honest I was quite impressed by the fact that they solved my problem so quickly, while some other 'bigger' tournaments usually take a lot more that 1 minute.
So this blog is just a big THANK YOU to the Craft Cup and its admins.
