To celebrate the Holidays, GosuGamers is hosting an open-for-all Holiday Special, with a prize pool of €500. There will be two days of qualifiers one for US and one for EU and one day for the playoffs. Note: As long as you have an EU or NA account you can participate in either or both qualifiers regardless of geographic location.
The top four players from each of the qualifiers will meet in a round of eight playoffs on December 26th at 18:00 CET (09:00 AM PST). The winner will take home €300, €150 for the runner-up, and the third-place winner will take home €50 from the €500 prize pool.

Hopefully none of the NA players have exams that they have to deal with (though that's quite late). It'll be interesting because as of late a lot of the bigger names have been seeing some issues making their ways to the finals in almost every tournament.

the NA qualifiers are on: Wednesday, December 22nd @ 03:00 PM Pacific time (PST).
(December 23rd, 00:00 CET) <- that is just converted time to CET.
We're getting very close now, in writing moment it's 6 more hours until it starts, which means you will have to register within five hours. There are still spots open, so sign up
I'd love to join but I have never in my whole life used IRC... How the h*** do I join?
When I click the link provided by MarCoon I get 2 editboxes and 2 buttons, I fill in a nickname and in channels ' #gosugamers.sc2'. Now all I see is an empty chat...
I guess its quite dumm not knowing but please help me ^^.
were these brackets generated randomly? Funny to see Idra as the very first seed in the brackets, and SEn at the very bottom :D Could be the finals right there..
