Captain_Judo: It looks like our prizing formula didn't account for the gold available to 2nd place teams.
That is, if your team was tied for 1st, we're also going to credit half of the 2nd place prize to both teams.
Thanks for your patience all

Captain_Judo: For the first round, you can expect multiple opponents a night. Without knowing the exact number of registered teams, we're expecting approximately 30%-40% of teams to be eliminated during this round. It will last multiple weeks.
The second round will follow last year's format except with multiple battles instead of a single battle.
This will all be clearly lined out after registration closes tomorrow.

Captain_Judo: There will be no fog of war.

Captain_Judo: To keep a level playing field, we're sticking to announcing the full map rotation (and schedule) shortly after registration closes.

Yoott: They are aware and are working on it. The error 500 seems to not hit everyone but the lag has been.

GeneralDirection: I talked with NVIDIA about this. The promotion is not only available to North Americans. The bonus content works on the NA cluster; you can purchase the video cards from outside of North America.

Hypnotik: You're welcome. There were a few database issues since the server crashed while updates were taking place one day, so this is likely something from that crash that got past me.

Hypnotik: Updating as I type. There was a problem with the server that has been a real pain to deal with in the past few days. It's been worse for the EU server, and worse yet for the SEA server (because of the update cycle). Luckily, the bug has been found and probably fixed. My backup solution was able to fill in for almost everything to keep the site running, and no data has been lost so I was able to render everything last night that was missing, but there might be a few slowdowns with the site and some temporarily out-of-date clan data for a couple days or so.
PS: -M-A- has updated (and is showing up twice ... another issue to look into)
