if any kind souls will PM the poor organizer to tell him/her one of the reason for rather cold response (5/128?) might be rm30 registration fee...

it auto screens out big chunk of lower tier/for-fun players which had been the root for all the past Malaysia LAN tournaments because last time with low-to-no (ranging from free to rm10) registeration fee, these players will just join for fun or for the sole purpose of supporting the local scene. but now with the higher barrier of entry, we can assume*1 lesser incentive for interested gamers with 0 chance of winning any prize, hence lower participation... (for the past events, organizers had said that they imply minimal participation fee is not to bare production cost but to reduce the probability of non-serious participant who will fly aeroplane on that day...im sure the organizers had received enough sponsorship from regular sponsors, lets not make the sponsors upset with only 5 ppl show up that day)

ironically they provided 128 seats.
owh, great, and its in cyberjaya...

just my 2 cents.

*1 assumption made on rm30 is now an expenditure to an event because they have little to no chance to win any cash prize. according to simple microeconomics rule, higher price always lead to lower demand and with such huge supply surplus (2 weeks to event, only 5% sold), the organizers should lower the registeration fee before its too late. and im sure E sport is price elastic demand.

I would say the main reason would be the place and time.... XD.... My exam is coming on early December.. there's no way for me to join it... And i assume the same for most of the Uni student out there.... Which makes up of most of the SC2 player in malaysia..

That's what i think about it too... they should really do promotion instead of asking the public to do the promotions for them =\

Qualifier Format: 128 teams will be divided into 16 groups with 8 players in each group. Each team will play twice in a round robin format. The top 4 players from each group will qualify to the next round.

As i understand round robin, means we play all 7 players in the group ? Or sum1 enlighten me please, thanks. Assuming it would be full participants la.

assuming all top4 players from each group enter knock out stage.
total of 64 players in knockout stage....


Honestly... is the time sufficient enuf to play all matches?
even they have 128 PC. i highly doubt if the time is sufficient for all games...

That's just the maximum slot and i think they are just putting to much expectations, this isn't pre WCG 2005 man... back in the days 128 slot easily got filled up for SCBW...

i think even with free registeration, we cant get 128 slots...

i think WCG we were at about 60ish player turning up only, although i heard 100+ registered.

Back in the pre 2005 days, it was possible to get 128 slot full even with RM25 registration fees in WCGmy. @@
