After some discussion with some people whom I'll not name, I've decided to extend the tournament to a Ro32. Top 4 from the Ro52 groups will advance to the next stage, and the seeding for the following groups will be as such:

Example:
Group A 1st vs Group D 4th
Group B 2nd vs Group C 3rd

Liquipedia will be updated as soon as possible (aka right now). The rationale behind this was, it seemed to be a little too harsh on the players that only Top 2 advanced from their groups, especially for people in the group of death. Also, removing more than 50% of the participants isn't very kind as well. It was either removing ~50% of the players (hold a Ro24) or this, so I've decided to go ahead with this. Not many games have been played yet, so I assume the impact of the change wouldn't be that much. Have fun and enjoy the remaining games!

I really love this change. With a new season and new maps to get used to, it's pretty stressful lining up games when you feel like you'll already need to play at your best to beat quality opponents. Now, there's a little breathing room - losing one match you feel you need to win doesn't necessarily cost you your whole tournament run.

Plus, it gives more people a shot at the GSL-style grouping, which is awesome!

Meh i will top any group anyway so it doesn't matter to me.

I haz idea... It probably won't work for the Ro32.. but for the Ro16 can we do group selection? RNG for the 1st placing players from the Ro32 to be split over each group and in order select someone to join their group, then that person picks etc...????

Might consider, did this in Season 1 but didn't intend to do this for Season 2. It kinda saves the trouble for people if we do auto-draft, so 16 people need not meet all at the same time. I'll consider! Having more people support this idea would sway my stand more too.

Yeap, in fact about 14 turned up. Not sure how though but I'm actually still sceptical about this time. Still have a week to think about it

And yeah Jevyn, it has already started I'm sorry!

[x5.JevyN]

Damn, sorry man

[syfChadMann]

So many games left to play.. not much time to do so either!.. get in and get them done!!

[swtadeline]

Is there some place other than skype everyone is meeting up? I've messaged everyone on skype multiple times over that past weeks and never heard back. Not able to play for a day or two now.

Nope, hope you get your matches in :S

Elusory monitors the skype chat groups though so best bet if you're concerned, talk to him directly.

[ToRDjvillian]

I resorted to messaging my opponents last week through sc2sea to get my games out of the way.

[ToRSpookToR]

I just assumed I had won all my games and didn't contact anyone.
