Reason: Listing of groups and slight change of scheduling
What an awesome idea! mGG is really stepping up with some cool stuff this year and its so so cool to see! You guys are amazing! Let me know if you need any help with admins, art or anything!
However, priority is given to mGG players because it is an inhouse event. BUT if u are still interested, indicate it to one of the admins or in the thread and when we are making the groups, we'll consider all other players on a case-by-case basis.

Due to various reasons, there have been some bottlenecks from the 2nd set for some groups. To ensure the games go smoothly, please note
If Set 2 games are not completed by Thursday 4-Jul midnight SGT, the person holding up the bottleneck will be walked over.
If Set 3 games are not completed by Saturday 6-Jul midnight SGT, the person holding up the bottleneck will be walked over.
If there are any special requests, please pm Probe or myself asap.

Though I agree games need to be done. How do you choose who is holding up the game? What if one day 1 player can make it but the other cant, and what if the next day the other player can make it but the 1st player cant make it then.
Just curious if you know how to resolve that if it comes up?

So far the cases we are seeing are pretty straightforward. It is more a case of whether the player is reachable or able to be contacted (in game or on Skype). Probe and myself are trying to be alert when the player is in game or on Skype and put them in touch asap.
If both players can be contacted but are just unable to play it out due to whatever the reasons, we will assess case by case the reasons why. In which case, depending on the reasons, we might extend it for the group affected.
But as much as possible, we hope to move the groups so that we can begin our next round

Please make arrangements to play out your groups asap and as before send replays to rine and myself via Skype. Set privacy to no match history (no spoilers!). Casting for the groups will be happening each weekend. So the quicker a group is done, the faster you get to see yourself being casted. The deadline for this round is 20th July. Read Skype for all updates.
Have fun! ^_^
