Small error with the graphic, says 4 spots to Melbourne Regionals and 2 for Nationals, I assume the bottom 2 'Regional' are supposed to be 'National'?

As most of you know, myself and ACL are organising the Nationals & Oceania Finals in Sydney in August. Obviously the prizes are MASSIVE but there are probably a lot of things about this event you guys don't realise. I'm going to make it my duty to give you a regular update in here about the event, leaking tidbits of exciting information about it.

First cab off the ranks:
This isn't any ordinary finals event in a netcafe like last year. This will be the biggest event for SC2 in Australia ever. The finals will be in front of a live audience with capacity for 330 seated guests.

Zealo · Sat, 2nd-Jun-2012, 6:53 PM

what are ACL doing for rules on race picking for wcs?

- is morrow-esque using a different race for one MU acceptable?
- is changing race between games based on the next map acceptable?

(is there a better place to ask annoying questions like this?)
