I just saw OP and it says lan finals in 2nd of June??? When I asked admin he said 9th??
Please tell me its 9th...2nd of June would be horrible for all Uni students which is probably me, TheGoonSquad, and Stallion. Even 9th isn't that great but 2nd of June...?
Edit: I got confused. Admin said it was 2nd, I had a schedule conflict on 9th so I asked. Sorry.
Ps. 2nd,9th still not the best dates..why not during the semester break..?I think its around mid June~end June? Surely it can be delayed a week or two..?

Yeh the 2nd of June is the current date, it was decided upon with Blizzard and is currently locked in as our date for the tournament. It unfortunately can't be changed but was the most advantageous date for uni students out of the two dates we had choice over.
I don't have the current ETA on the flights with me currently but the bracket should be updated quite soon within the next day or so as that is quite easy to do. I'll keep you updated and should have an answer for you over the next two days.
okay thanks, will be good to see bracket early so we can prepare as much as possible : )
Also, hope the bracket will be generated according to what admin said before some of our stage 2 games!
Winners of each group gets 1~4 seed (group1 gets highest seed, 2 is 2nd etc), 5th seed goes to the next highest wins out of 2nd places in group (9 wins) and if few are on same wins, higher seeding group (eg if group1s 2nd place has 8wins, group2s 2nd place has 8wins, group 3s 2nd place has 9wins, group4s 2nd place has 9wins, than 5th seeding would go to group 3, 6th to group4, 7th to group1, 8th to group 2 etc)
The tournament is double elimination in its style and the current starting setup is as follows:
Left side of winners bracket -
1st seed - xGKingJazbas vs 8th seed - SIN
4th seed - Kowi vs 5th seed - aLtStallion
Right side of winner bracket
2nd seed - IrisAnother vs 7th seed - IrisPetraeus
3rd seed - Rumpleteazer vs 6th seed - TheGoonSquad
With the winner of 1v8 playing the winner of 4v5, and with the winner of 2v7 playing 3v6. From that point onwards the winners of each go to the winners bracket final. All other contestants who lose their games in the winners bracket will be dropped to the losers bracket and will have to work their way up from there. For the smaller details of bo3/bo5/bo7 etc will come hopefully tonight or tomorrow, and I'll continue to chase up the flight details.
Regards,
David
Edit: Also I require you guys to send in all the replays of your matches for Stages 1 and 2 to David.Heilbronn@gmail.com. Thanks in advance .
Good luck boys, time see to who "Best in NZ is yo"
yeah I was contacted RE this "show match" thing as well, pretty much had the same opinion as Jaz, tournament results speak louder than ladder/ once off show matches, try actually being part of the NZ scene before boasting you're the best I say
glgl once again boys hope to meet the winners when they come to Aus for the Oceania finals

As I posted above I believe we will be getting the flight details done over the next day or so, and that will most likely be the deadline for Rumpleteazer's decision. However I am not directly involved with flights so take everything I say with respect to that with a pinch of salt.
