Oh my GOD !
I cant believe I missed that ! Looking at the brackets, I dont see any STRONG players that I used to constantly lose to in there. In fact I see people I used to win against go pretty damn far! I am all out of shape but I wanna get into this on Thursday so badly. When do they open registration for the Thursday event?

How did this go so unnoticed? Why is there a lack of really good players in there? Im praying for an easy bracket =\

Indeed. Where the hell have you been as well? I'd love to go and try and qualify myself on Thursday but they really couldn't have chosen a worse day. Anyway, Khaz, hit me up online for some games or spam me on IRC (#starcraft.ie)

^pity for you man:( if you are serious to get into a team, you should keep an eye for the EU teams tryout. in fairness dignitas announced this tryout only about 1 week ago. if i see any uk/ie team tryout i will defo post one next time.

Really wondering why they'd choose 17th March! Surely they know better....oh, wait: we're all nerds and won't have plans Serious oversight on their part - unless it acts as another test...

Where the hell have you been as well?

I got a bit serious with judo and grappling, tried some competitions. And exams are getting closer, all 11 of them. So I dont really have much time. But its tempting.


2nd qualification registration is up btw.

I found out why I dont see some very good players, because of the rules:
- All players must hold British or Irish nationality and be located in the UK or Ireland aswell.

So I cant take part in that. But I think Im back to playing sc2 at least


Gogo Sinister, Blinn and Funky!

well I posted it here because I didnt see any players from Ireland.

It s too bad you can t take part but it s nice to have you back on SC2

Funky

I played but got knocked out in my first game, was a fairly tough first game but I coulda done better. Would have liked an easy first match to settle down a bit.

Can watch it here starts about 48 mins into the video.
