ACL Gold Coast League 1 - National Starcraft II Event

ACL Gold Coast is just around the corner. All of the qualifying rounds and competitions have been played and the final standings are in. For those new to the format, we have seen Regional live events right around Australia and an online competition to finalise these seedings for the Gold Coast. This will mark the culmination of the first 'League' and there will be 3 more Leagues before the end of the 2012 Pro Circuit. Moving forward there will be a change.....

Read more about this announcement, see the invites, learn the structure in this thread on ACL here.

Please remember there is an OPEN Bracket that ANYONE can enter

It's my browser probably T_T. Just saying if my comment is uninformed, then that's why

**ACL VaNzR** · Tue, 20th-Dec-2011, 4:19 PM

Hey Edge, sent you a PM. If you could action that I want to talk to you when I can

Thanks

Hey could you clarify something looking at the table it seems like the Online Round had equal weighting to the regionals e.g. Moonglade got 1500 Points 750 for 1st at Sydney Regional and 750 for Online Round 1

I was under the impression that the Online round only had 60% weighting e.g. 750x 0.6 = 450

**x5_dot** · Tue, 20th-Dec-2011, 6:02 PM

Didn't the online round have 150% weighing if you didn't compete in the regionals? and 100% if you did.

Guys, there has been a very unfortunate mistake made in the points calculations. I believe Adelaide players were promised a small percentage of extra points to compensate for their stacked Regionals competition. In the end, there were not many interstaters, so the number we have given them is still less than if interstate players did not attend their event.

Most notable change here is that Bielsko, an Adelaide player is now receiving 720 points (750 is what you get when you win) as opposed to 600 which he was awarded for placing 3rd behind two interstate players.

Please remember that ANYONE can enter this competition and win it.

I would remind everyone that competing in the Online round (which a lot of players chose not to) would have earned you extra points for this event. I must apologise profusely however, for missing this detail. I'm covering for Dox while he is far too busy with work. We believe that getting this information up ASAP was of paramount importance and this kind of error will not occur again.

thats correct but the Online points were apparently only 60% of that of a Regional (to encourage people to join and to reward that those that contribute to a pay to play event opposed to a free to join event)

This is correct. All of these weighting changes were to accommodate you guys as players getting used to a new format with a VERY short lead time.

The new league competitions will have 3 online rounds weighted at 40%. FULL INFORMATION on the season's structure can be found at this link.

Please be aware that running a circuit takes an enormous amount of time, and starting this season has been a lot of hard work. I can only apologise once again for any confusion or misgivings in the last few hours

This was only ever discussed with you personally Chris, not public knowledge. All our other comps use that kind of format, and the future online comps (as I posted above) will use 40% alotments per online round.

If someone is given a top 16 seed and cannot attend the event, the seed will be given to the next in line.
