Finals are open to anyone that qualifies (SEA players are the only ones that can play in the qualifiers remember). There will be a cash prize in addition to the IeSF flight (So NZ'ers can win a cash prize if they perform well in the finals)

As for our representative, they need to be a resident (Student VISA/Permanent Resident) or citizen for IeSF to accept the player into the tournament. KingKong is a resident currently, so he would be eligible.
