IESF Update:

1. IESF will be on the same day but it will not clash with WCG so you might as well sign up if you're coming down!
2. Winner gets free trip to Korea to participate in the IESF Global finals.
3. Registration closes tomorrow so be quick!

updated OP with match schedules and stream link

could use a community guy to help update information still, if you're interested, msg me.

hope to see you guys there, I was down at expo today watching them setup the hall, its gonna be awesome.

[mGMUSE]

great job once again, but top32 wcg after iesf finals is kinda weird.. place it on the next day instead?

[Mezza]

hey muse, to answer your question, i believe what you msged me on bnet is true, top of group A vs 2nd in group B for the group stage to ro32 matchups

as for moving the competition to the next day, i have absolutely no say in this because the tournamnet organizers are rapture. and there's a gazillion other games going on, DOTA, CS, Garena stuff, etc. and they have very fixed computer allocation schedules because of all that.

i'd imagine we'd have more flexible timings if we had a dedicated starcraft only LAN but i guess that'll be kind hard, even the overseas big events are multi-game events, so have to make do with their schedule lor

[zendex]

Any idea of the maps and format (bo1, bo3, bo5, etc.)???

Looked in their website and fliers given to us, no info on that :|

[Mezza]

still trying to clarify that with the organizers

also, for the registered players in Singapore, add my Bnet ID to your friends list so you guys can hop in games easier during the tournament, Mezza.445

also, during the day itself, we'll be announcing a channel where everyone's who's participating in the tournament can hop into so we can add people easily

also does anyone know anything about the overseas players? I got profiles for RedArchon and cobo but thats about it, anyone know anything about these invitees like some background/history and their gaming achievements? would be great.

[zendex]

@Jaczie, Mezza: Nice commentary on the Enderr-Cobo match. However, is there any way to secure sound proofing for players on-stage?

[Mezza]

can't sound proof it, unfortunately there's no booth or anything to do that, so we can't do regular casting like we do, ah well
