tournaments are usually not decided until much closer to the event.
and after much debating, flaming, voting, and vetoing/executive decisions (by vector)
not necessarily in that order.

there are always tasty delicious prices Yarr! (video cards, processors, etc... good stuff)

just please for the love of god don't suggest a CS:S tourney Rolling Eyes

Starcraft.
Do it.

No, it will never die.

And a SupCom FA tournament would be awesome, excluding the fact that It would take days.

Nah, it only takes about 8 hours or so with average participation w/ double-elim. We pretty much had SupCom tourneys at most of the events we did in 2007 through early 2008, I wouldn't expect it to make a comeback until SupCom 2 comes out (especially with RA3, DoW2, and some StarCraft game that may be coming out soon).

Interesting as I have no idea how you will get SC2 released that early.

That's where I played it, in my "Computer Education" class. As soon as everyone's work was done, the teacher would let us play 8v8 games of BOLO, yelling across the class room.

Pillboxes FTW!!!!

Gamestop always has bogus release dates like that. It's to get you to preorder the game. Don't believe a release date you see (especially regarding Blizzard games) unless you see it directly from Blizzard themselves.
