    Had fun handling the backend stuff as always. Almost won the bet that Matiz would fall asleep during casting :)
    For all those that participated I hope you had fun!

    Played 3 games today to help @matizpl train. I think he is in good shape. @Quitch anyway EE will be doing t shirts with the names of all the contestants on the back of it and the winner highlighted? I'd be willing to get one If the price is right

    Unfortunately sorian is unwell (get well soon!) and so will not be able to cast tomorrow's tournament. Casting in his absence will be Quitch (we're so sorry). Not to worry though, TheWrongCat is co-casting and will ensure the quality level is maintained.

    :(

    I was on holiday and was gambling the patch wouldn't be released in time. Guess I have got a lot to learn today. Ah that's okay, I only have to beat Matiz and then possibly Elodea and then possibly yaegz.

    On an other note though... This has been the best competitive 1v1 PA Tournament I remember to date. The casting was fenomenal, I'm so glad the approach taken towards commentating competitive PA heads towards pro eSports standards. This trend must continue and the competitive side of PA as a whole can only benefit from it.

    I do hope that we get many more of these open tournaments in the future (maybe with a less puzzling name :p ) and that they escalate in popularity as the game gets patched and gradually becomes the next-gen competitive RTS it has the potential to become (here in RTS Club Edinburgh, we had been watching the IEM 2015 SCII semifinals before the Evil Twin Finals and everyone agreed that switching from the de facto king competitive RTS to PA didin't feel like a downgrade at all but rather as a refreshing change in game mechanics and overall gameplay feel - major differences were around visual quality/appeal (both UI and terrain) and production values but these are only things that can be worked on as money is put into it once it becomes more profitable for Uber or Exodus or both).

    No dramas but i'm still gonna slag you. I accomplished my mission if getting super drunk. So much so that the bouncer paid me leave. Will watch the game later. Well played kiwi, gonna post your PAG invitation later when I manage to get the shop for a stamp
