With the great success USAT was, myself and dkun decided to run a tournament along similar grounds. This year we are allowing access to all North American countries. This means The United States, Canada, Mexico, United States Territories, and all other countries in the North America region. Here is a list of North American countries.

Starting Date: June 21st 2013.

Information regarding how the tournament will be set up:
  1. The tournament will consist of 1v1 matches.
  2. Due to the amount of players we have, for the sake of time and mental health this will be a Single Elimination Tournament.
  3. Each match, your multiplayer room will consist of one referee.
  4. You can choose any map pertaining to the round itself.
  5. The times of the matches will be decided between you and your opponent. Failure to show up at the agreed time results in disqualification.
  6. The tournament will hopefully span over a month. If possible, it will be shorter.
  7. Each match will consist of a minimum of 3 games and a maximum of 5 games (2 maps chosen by each participant with an additional tiebreaker map if it comes to that) meaning that it takes 3 wins overall to be victorious.
  8. Selection out of mod-specific brackets is limited. Each player can only select one map from each mod-restricted bracket during match. So each player can pick 1 HardRock, 1 Hidden and 1 DoubleTime map during match.
Referee's Role:
  1. Switch to the default skin.
  2. Creates the room with an appropriate Match title.
  3. Save the link to the multiplayer history.
  4. Set the match to Team Vs mode.
  5. Remain host during all maps and use the multiplayer chat to take each player's requests.
  6. Do not skip the intro and do not participate in the match.
  7. Screenshot (Shift+F12) the results of each match.
  8. Create a post containing the match title, history and screenshots afterwards.
Results:
  1. 1st Place: SapphireGhost
  2. 2nd Place: Kyou-Kun
  3. 3rd Place: pielak213-
Prizes: (Thanks to peppy)
  1. First Prize: 1 Year Supporter + A Profile Badge (Thanks to Loliflan)

BTW, I noticed that it says the tournament includes all North American countries, but the immediately following sentences seems to suggest that only three countries are, in fact, eligible for the tournament. Could you please clarify?

Eh I didn't word it in the best way did I? I was trying to use them as examples. I'll reword it.

IMO, KRZY shouldn't be able to join this tournament. Despite having a Norwegian flag, I joined the USAT (and was allowed in it because I live here) at the cost of not being able to join in the Scandinavian tournament when that later popped up. I feel that users ought to be restricted to one nationality for the sake of official tournaments and contests, and KRZY has already marked himself as part of Korea by being part of their team during OWC.

Due to the ambiguity of the poll (57 players and 100+ votes currently, dafuq?) I'm going close it. The use of mods will be discussed between the staff. If you have any comments feel free to leave them here, just stay civil please. It is more than likely we will be using mods.
