So, I ran across the CAL site today, found an update and proceeded to read it.

I got about half way down it and found this line

Quote from: CAL
The regular season will stop after Week 4 for a 3-week break to allow time for this to take place.

Ummm.... WTF!?!?

I mean, great, you're having a tournament. But comon! a 3 week break just for kicks and giggles? Especially when only 72 open teams can enter. What are the rest of the teams supposed to do, sit on our asses?

I thoroughly agree, this is bs. i am kinda pissed about it. but i guess it will give ample time for scrimming the week 5 map.

Sad thing is, CAL did this in S5, following which they took a huge dive in popularity. I mean, this pushes the end of playoffs until October. That's ridiculous. I could understand the usual end of august/beginning of September for playoffs. But May-October?!?!? That's ludicrous.

"only 72 "


what is lame about this is the number of Main/invite teams allowed is 24. Granted there is only about 38-40 of us in all divisions of Main/Invite total. Now I understand as they said it is for the CAL community, which is mostly Open/IM teams, but I thought it was a bit ridiculous considering the teams at higher levels are usually more active in the community (albeit that would be a joke this year season in PAC because 5 teams have dropped and every team is painfully inactive.) 
Anyways my team can't enter because we're 2-3 and Fragfacile hasn't had time to play our also inactive team  (ie, we don't have the 6 completed matches required of Main/invite teams) so good luck to OPG! Bring the hurt, I think you guys could do with embarrassing quite a few Main/IM teams and put them in their place   Afro

thanks duracell!!

this needs to be an active topic of discussion.

can we still get in as on of the 72? i say we get on this immediately.

i will be on a stable cable connection with a private and quiet place to play so, i am 100% ready to rock some main kids.

who else can play? what might the roster look like? A-Team specifically, who can, who can't, and why??

Umm, we tossed the idea out to A team right after they announced it. We liked the idea of a 3 week break much better than we did a tournament. I think that still stands, but who knows.

rofl, so the single elimination brackets basically start out with the #1 invite team playing the very worst Open team, that could be interesting lol.

Not sure how many spots are left. Lots of Invite/Main teams complaining though haha
