I thought it would be fun to hold a SC2 tournament for L19 members, Go players, and friends. Naturally for an event with Go players, all levels are welcome. So it will be a Swiss where everyone plays all rounds, and as the tournament goes on you will get matched with players of similar skill.

Post here to let me know your interest! Please include your battle.net name+identifier and email (you can email me andy.olsen.tx at gmail dot com if you don't want to put your email in here).

Google spreadsheet I'm using for signups/pairing:
http://tinyurl.com/25ota85

Tentative schedule and rules:
December 11, 2010 on NA Battle.net
Checkin: 7:42 PM CST in KGS teamliquid room
Round 1: 8:00 PM CST
Round 2: 8:45 PM CST
Round 3: 9:30 PM CST
Round 4: 10:15 PM CST

All rounds BO1

Maps: Current ladder maps. Agree informally or take turns vetoing maps.
No back-to-back repeats: After the first round, no repeating the map from the immediate prior round for either player.
Example:
Round 3, Joe played on Metalopolis and Bob played on Lost Temple
In Round 4, Joe and Bob are paired. They are not allowed to play on Metal or LT.
Maps from more than one round ago are allowed to repeat.


Organization:
Pairings will be here: http://tinyurl.com/25ota85
For organization, please also join the teamliquid room on KGS (under social).

I'd be down for this, Junshin#367. And I think KGS is best choice for our means of discussion.

I'll tentatively plan on joining in, even though I suck and haven't played in weeks. Now we just need to get Day[9] to cast it.

I'm in, but I'm terrible. It'll give the better players someone to laugh at.

...and a 6d joins our forum because of Starcraft. Awesome, and welcome!

...thankfully, I'm better at go than at Starcraft, even if I'm bad at go. =D

You can sign up until check-in starts at 7:42 PM CST.

We have 10 players so far, I'd like to get 16. Tell your friends! L19/KGS Go players preferred but not required. I can't imagine it would happen, but I will limit the tourny to 32 max.

I might (probably?) be in. I'm pulling late nights at work all this week, but I think I can get rested up for a nice afternoon tournament :)

I'm Numsgil (of course :P) #278.

I just realized I double booked this saturday. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it due to a promise to a RL friend to show up for her Christmas party.

Oops.

Sorry.

Aww, darn. Well, we'll have to play outside of the tourney sometime! Enjoy the party. =)

The more plans change. New plan says I will be around Saturday. So, leave me back on, and I'll come lose.

Even so, Chew, we should really catch up.

What would be funny is if there was a special forum title for the tournament winner...

Enough? Or too much?
