Hope we'll see some cool games and our russian and ukrainian friends won't be too drunk before the New Year! :D
P.S. Actually it seems that some credit for this tourney should go to rox.kis guys, especially to RoX.KIS.Bruce cause he is usually the main guy in russian community who makes such things possible ^_^ also GG.Ooshan made the banner actually ^^
