If SC5 is released before the event (even a day before) it'll be played.

I was just saying that to Fred on the trip back from DoC. If SCV is released at any point before WGC, it'll be the greatest trip. France SC is awesome.

As it stands SCV is scheduled for first quarter 2012, so it'll be tight if it's going to make it in.

Great find Dreddy but it looks like the promo has blackout dates that fall during the time of the tournie so we wouldn't be able to take advantage of it.

So I'm guessing this is a book separately and hope we are near? or is it a communal pot?

Yeah i'm now gainfully employed so i'm all go, but i have to work around a trinity schedule too and can't afford to miss much, so early friday, early monday is best option for me too, Voa and myself will probably work out ourselves, if he's ok with me tagging along.

I paid €205, but I paid for one checked in bag and travel insurance.

It was €162 I think without that.

There is a voting system for the last game slot somewhere on the WGC website. I believe MK9 is currently in the lead, but an extra vote will never hurt its chances.
