What time does the tourney start roughly?

Interested in playing but I'm UTC+12.

^ Apologies, I had another look. 3am might be a bit early for me.

@Nombringer yeah sorry, its 14utc and 15utc mainly so Eastern European players can play too. I'll see if I can eventually host something that is mainly for aus timezone

@hybrid_

Thanks, genuinely appreciate the thought. Obviously OCE Scene is a bit smaller, but maybe spreading it out a bit to have at least one in a semi-compatible time could be workable in the future.

I don't think we ever really expect some perfect AU/NZ friendly times given how small it is, its just that 1-3am start is probably truly unworkable.

Why are you using slots 3/4 for desert joust?

@JaggedAppliance slots 1 and 2 aren't mirrored properly, slot 1 has double adjacency while slot 2 doesn't. I don't think playing 3-4 makes that big of a difference in terms of original gameplay.

This qualifier has concluded. Congratulations to those who have qualified, and for those who have not, I hope to see you in the next qualifier this weekend!

The results are as follows:
1st: Grimplex
2nd:TheWeakie (Farmsletje)
3rd: Maomaoo (Yudi)
4th: Shen

Bracket: https://challonge.com/h1kpnuk7

Due to the forfeits, TheWeakie and Maomaoo will not receive their avatar prizes. Qualification will still be granted as the consequences were not known at the time.

I will be making a larger announcement in the next few days regarding substitute rules, forfeiting and prizes. So please keep an eye out for that.

Thank you to everyone who was involved, looking forward to the next stage!
