In celebration of mGG's birthday the founder's of the clan have put their awesome brains and brawn together to create the most awesome in-house tournament of all time! If your wondering how this is possible the answer is quite simple; we are both egyptian gods! (I am Anubis, Thoth is.. well Thothy :P)
The Founder's Cup will be annual event which celebrates the birthday of our clan. This year the tournament will be a double elimination and will recapture some of the glory of SC2 up to this point in time as we look forward to HOTS. This will include some old maps from the ladder pool and some new ones some may not have played on yet. So without further ado let me give you the details of this awesomely divine event!

"and we'll invest more on Bots, as our first Trial bot, the 'NemBotElie' was a huge success, organising tournaments and being part of the Council of mGG. But there are a few bugs in which the bot cannot go past the skill level of a Platinum Protoss." - PaRAnorMaL
If you are doing a double elimination, then shouldnt the finals be 2x Bo3? instead of best of 5 to reward the winners bracket finalist for not dropping a map? Regardless looks good
