    I'd win it all solo Q'ing, but lucky for the participants, I won't be able to attend the full time needed for the tourney. x)

    I personally would go for Team F. If you ban/pick Gemini before Demonwing does, he'll just go hide in the jungle.

    MsMia is one of our GMs, who happens to be named Mia. She isn't the same Mia as Viole. =P

    I'll vote for you this tourney apostate, just because of pro clan name, very creative.

    Would've voted for team H if their name was reversed, I'm tired of heroes, I would've preferred to see Zeroes vs Heroes, fak.

    Unfortunately I'm in the same situation as this ^ and Katieeee as well It would be awesome if all of us could make it to the tourney However, I can't stay for the whole duration so yeah.

    Good luck to all the Moderators and GMs who are participating in this tourney, do your best and have fun Seeing Team E - No Love For Magni vs Team F - Team Foxtrot (As Magni is in this team) will definitely be humorous.

    To the rest of you guys, I highly recommend for you to spectate this tournament as lots of fun will take place here and is definitely rewarding (as stated in the sticky). Hope to see you guys there (Yes, you! The awesome spectators) and I will highly likely be on during the 2nd half of the tournament.

    Noooooo, why did MacroHard have to become hired by S2? Now I have no idea who any of the players are... Although Frukost (Swedish for breakfast) sounds pretty good right now so go team C!
