Okay so after today's meeting, pretty much all the details have now been ironed out. I'm not authorised to release the information until Tuesday however, so keep an eye on this thread next week.

What will the maps be for the Brisbane qualifier? i.e. will we be using season 3 ladder maps after they have only been out for ~2 weeks?

A: Expect continuity between events. I'll continue to endeavour for fairness (ie. Bo3, Double Elimination) however as always, this could be subject to change pending circumstances. Maps will be reviewed after the launch of Ladder season 3.

The map pool is currently ESL/MLG Editions of the following, except for Tal'Darim which is the Ladder Edition:

Metalopolis
Crevasse
Tal’darim Altar
Xel’naga Caverns
Shattered Temple
Terminus SE
Shakuras Plateau

I'll let you know if any changes happen.

I'm British and don't have an Australian citizenship yet (permanent resident visa), am I eligible to play in the Brisbane Qualifiers?

ROOT`iaguz · Thu, 21st-Jul-2011, 5:34 PM

Someone emailed me today about the prizes situation. Yay! Putting my axe away now. Slowly.

Hey fenner you are eligible to play in these events (eg win all the prizes) but my understanding is you cant represent Australia in Korea (if you were to take down the likes of Glade, Deth, Iaguz in the national finals

)

Correct. This question has already been ambiguously answered in the OP.

Melbourne August 27th, iBisQ. Cool! I'll try and get the day off work

Do we have to pre-register for WCG, or can we show up on day and play? I assume pre-registering would be best, but i might be able to talk a couple of people into coming closer to the date, depending on the price.

**Dox** · Mon, 8th-Aug-2011, 1:05 PM

Some more WCG information & big announcements are due to hit this thread very soon. Maybe even later today.

Lay it on us big boy

Check Derek's facebook O_O

ROOT`iaguz · Mon, 8th-Aug-2011, 5:16 PM

Facebook is evil and I don't want to investigate further.

JUST GIVE ME THE DETAILS!

syfMiley · Mon, 8th-Aug-2011, 5:47 PM

I have no facebook friends

Q: Can a non-Australia citizen participate in the events?
A: Yes, you can participate. As per WCG tradition, I think you'll be eligible for prizes, but you will forfeit the qualifying spot at the National Finals. I'll chase this up, but I doubt this policy has changed.

This is new; traditionally, even people with PR (permanent residency) were blocked from playing at qualifiers for CS.

There have been some situations where they were allowed to play if the whole team had enough players to be eligible, but this was usually pragmatism more than anything else (needing more teams to sign up so the qualifier was economically viable). I can't imagine this'd be necessary for the SC2 scene at the moment, though.

cRSenSei · Mon, 8th-Aug-2011, 6:34 PM

wow that is so shit.

dippa · Tue, 9th-Aug-2011, 1:23 AM

Happened after WCG 2004 when Diablo (citizen of Brunei) ran around bunnyhopping and cockslapping the shit out of anything that moved. I don't think 23 (team from WA) would have made the finals if Diablo didn't carry their ass there.

That said, the rules were always tight before that - radius, a long term player for bronx, was never allowed to play at WCG qualifiers regardless of what happened. Just how things have been done >_<
