Benji I'm in dude. Just was at City Hunter (chatswood) today at lunch - I'm guessing you're talking about the one in ChinaTown though yeah?

Anyway if you're happy to throw me in I'd love to be there on Saturday 12th.

Hey Benji!! Thanks for posting this up...i was about to post this up as well so cheers mate!! They changed the format a little bit but I think that was for saving time so can't argue with City Hunter there.

One thing that City Hunter did not post in their flyer was that every player is allowed to vote down ONE map of their choice.

Every participant will also get a certificate of participation from City Hunter as well for the effort put in for the fundraiser so hope to see you guys on the 13th!!

Any other questions regarding the fundraiser please don't hesitate to PM me on Bnet @ Genesis.119 or PM here on the forums.

GLHF!!

Updated Main post. Thanks Genesis for the info, now I can thumbs down Steppes so Rossi doesnt get a freewin

SiF · Fri, 11th-Feb-2011, 1:37 PM

Ok so this is on Sunday not Saturday. Benji did you put me in your list? I'll contact them directly if not.

Should have done it like GSL where 2/4 people from each group progress.

That was my original format but City Hunter is changing it to their way to save time. I can see where they're going with it but iono...gives it a more awesome feeling if they went with our original Code S format.

also I was informed by City Hunter today that 30 People has already been reserved and registrations hasn't even officially opened (opens on VDay). There is potential to boost to 64 player if demand continues to increase.

Thanks for your support and keep'em coming guys!!

TAriiChard · Sun, 13th-Feb-2011, 2:13 PM

I'll be going =p and I've got a few new builds to show (no I don't really .. just more scvs being sent along with my army)

Starcraftmazter · Fri, 18th-Feb-2011, 8:40 AM

Does anyone know if this has been extended to 64 players yet?

"Write your details down here"

"ok, here you go"

"what's this?"

"thats my ID and character code"

"oh?"

"...theres also my phone number and actual name"

"um"

"is this ok?"

"um yes"

No offense, but top 8 were all masters players, don't think you would have taken top 3.
