I can't wait :)
If you look on our ruleset it says:
Getting an invite does not mean that the team/player gets in for free, it means the team/player is guaranteed a place at the-eXperience. The list is subject to change at any time and in case invited teams or players fails to pay before May 1st they will be removed from the list.
I don't know whats up with DCC perhaps they said no or just wasn't invited because lack of skill :/ ill try to check that out.
for example, first codqcup beating TLR aka MYM, Speedlink and DIE aka epsilon
5th-8th on cdc beating tek9
2nd place dslash cup beating SK etc..
Precipitating = Sweating :)
Participating was what you meant.
Just had to laugh when I read that every sweating team has to pay :P
However, really good tourney announcement and nice to see 3 american teams traveling over for it.
thanks!
