maybe you could find some new players from your school? Try advertising the event through your school, we'll see how you go this week otherwise I'll discuss some alternatives with you.
used to have more players, but they all went inactive to play other games (LoL). If they came back they would be too rusty IMO. They haven't played actively for around 8 months or so?
I would prefer players that I knew personally (not from other grades) just to make organising easier and quicker, so I won't be advertising it at school.
I think we'll still be able to have 3 players each week, so only one game forfeited. Maybe 4 if qsaurus wants to play.

I dont mean to be rude or anything when i say this but...this is a friendly/fun tournament...it doesnt really matter if theyr rusty as long as they feel like playing. My whole team is rusty as all hell, but we all still enjoy a casual game of sc2 and thats what this tournaments all about. As for not knowing them personally who cares, as long as u have contact with them and can harass them a tad its all good as long as 3-4 of them play on the day. (facebook and a very large team helps for this) Like by all means ignore those that utterly hate sc2 now but if they are still interested, playing casually, who care if theyr rusty this tounrny will help them improve/let them have fun, compete for entertainment purposes whatever.
Also Peter, Can you add Hendy to my team plz thanks

yeah i know lol, all of my team aside from me are rusty as well. It's just that the guys that haven't played for 8 months don't actually care about sc2 at all. And with the academic competetiveness of our school, I honestly think they would see this as a waste of their time.

this, my team consists of players from every year level. I have a facebook group to keep in contact with everyone and each week I contact people through that.

lol I'm pretty sure my school is fairly academic and sporting focused as well but surprisingly there was quite a large turnout of people when I advertised for starcraft. you may be surprised as well.
But yeah as mentioned it is a friendly tournament, most of the teams have similar leagues as well. Its encouraged for the bigger teams to play players of similar skill levels anyways, as honestly its not fun for either player to play with a massive skill gap. Even with my team I try to match the leagues up as close as I can. Bottom line is you shouldn't worry too much about players being beaten about, the bigger teams should be playing similar leagues to accommodate you.
Sadly Carey has decided to pull out of the competition due to members not being able to make the game every week, as such Carey Captain has joined pineapple maruaders. All Carey games will be changed into a walkover. If you are scheduled to play carey, it is not a bye week for your team. Hopefulyl Carey will be back for season 2 of the Highschool League
