Folks, don't be confused yah, I found so many people confused themselves about this one.
This event is WCG Malaysia 2008 KICK-OFF event. Means that it's a LAUNCH event, NOT the actual WCG Malaysia 2008 yet.

But WAIT! What about the champions last year? Here's the tough part, the last year's champions will be seeded to the FINALS. Meaning, you must challenge and WIN last year's winners at the end, and if you win, you will represent Malaysia to the WCG 2008 Asian Championship in Singapore. notworthy.gif

What if the champions are not able to make it?

This is what I was wondering as well.


QUOTE(guardioo @ Apr 24 2008, 05:21 PM)
mean KS unable to join for that dota tourney lor
*
Not that their are not unable to join. It actually mean KS need to start the tournament from group stage and if they made it to the finals, they need to win against whoever is seeded to the finals, in order to represent Malaysia at Asian WCG.

Clearer? hmm.gif

There are no further information about WCG Malaysia 2008 inside the issue, although there’s an advertisement about the upcoming WCG Malaysia 2008 Kick-Off event. I don’t know whether other local game magazines has the same badge on their covers or not. Will check on that later today.

Dear gamers sekalian,

Minta maaf, we still updating the webbie, a lot of news belum up lagi. So just bear with us for another week ok. Berbanyak updates to put up. BTW, the rules are up n finalized, for ACG qualifiers, we will use the same rules for Fifa and NFS. For DotA, rules, TBC.

oh, and Chap, thanks for the coverage biggrin.gif yup, WCG MY Champ date has been announced but we couldn't update and officially release on our website becauseeeeeeeee..................... doh, website still updating tongue.gif

Thanks thanks.
*
Aha, your welcome. biggrin.gif

But the rules seems to reflect many of the older European Championship / proto-rules instead of the latest set by ICM. I believe a number of pple already point this out to you, so we hope that it can be changed to the latest one so everybody can focus straight to Cologne, without the need of retraining after WCG.my Grand Finals. nod.gif

I also emailed Naka about this one. wink.gif

Besides, pre-registration? How it works? Can tell me? so whoever 32 register first, then the slots close? So, ppl at that time can say, oh my internet not working? oh i am busy that time? oh i am not at home that time?

Good one on seeding as well. So that means Msia always having same gamers roll and roll, i fight you, you fight me. What if there's a good one, actually he stands a chance to join, but, because seeding, he missed out? So this isn't fair to him as well. There's nothing fair to be honest. It's just that you scare you lose a chance? You can't represent Msia? What about others? If that's the case, only 16 ppl stand a chance?

What happen if you are the one who's not in the seeding? How will you feel? I am a normal player, i trained and try my best, but i only have 1/16 possibility to get a slot. Think about it, those who post all the times are the one who's on lowyat. I do believe there's ppl who's not on there too. So is this fair to those who's not on lowyat? Ok, you may say they are noob, beginner or whatever? But are you not a noob before? PPL Join just because they want to gain more experience, but even this little chance, you also don't give ppl, so is this call fair? And the so called TOP PPL like you all, every year also seeding, is it fair as well? Then might as well, we don't need to have WCG Qualifier for National Championship? Seed you all, that will be enough. Isn't that right? So we can send best of the best to Germany this year, don't need to bother about those "NOOB" or whatever it is.

Upset about In2? Why do In2 want to organize this? The reason is because In2 wants to let everyone has a chance to join eventhough they know they cannot accomodate a lot of ppl, but at least they try. If not, why will they bother? They can just send Jali, Forza and etc over to SG, why they want to find trouble themselves and let ppl complain about them being stupid? Ridiculous? Do you think organizer will feel nice? It's like Hey, you this gamer, you are so stupid, do you feel nice? do you? i am asking you! whoever you are...

You all think about it, don't just know how to complain. Every reasons have their own pros and cons. You all just keep telling me about the advantage of seeding? what about disadvantages? Do you all really ever think about that? Don't tell me there's none.. it's f*king bullshit if you tell me that..

Before Eddy posted about the seeding, why there's no one mention about that? Well, i did not say Eddy's suggestion is not good, however, what's the point? Like you all said, choose best of the best? Or should i just say it's just a selfish thought about ownself? Why do i only see those who knows themselves confirm get a slot one keep posting about seeding? Can i refer that as selfish? Can i? If not let me know pls, i wud love to accept ur feedback.

Thanks and above is just my opinion, welcome to discuss about it, and it's nothing related with In2 at all. =)

Naka posted a similar comment like above at Multiplay and below is the same reply I wrote for it.

Ron, everybody wants only the best to represent the country to Singapore. That's all. We are not upset with In2 as a whole, we even applauded In2 initiative to held an open qualifier. We just upset about the lucky draw system, which to us have many flaws.

While I do agree with the disadvantages of seeding but it's down to this : if a player deserve to win, he will win it. All of the so-called "pro" have been through it before. Relatively unknown and then beat everybody - one person at a time. Seeding is just an alternative, not the only solution. Every other alternative have their flaws too, but they are still way better than the lucky draw system.

The online pre-registration method that I had in my mind was different from yours. It's similar to the new lucky draw based system but instead it's to be held online and few weeks prior to the event. If a player or a team doesn't get chosen, they don't have to waste their effort especially in terms of financial to be there at the event. This holds true for participants that comes from outstation or people that canceled or took leave from work to join the event.

The reason why nobody actually give much feedback about the registration system before In2 implement the lucky draw is because the first comes first serve method was better than the lucky draw method. Sure, there is a big problem for outstation players who faces unconfirmed spots. But, with lucky draw method also, they are still facing unconfirmed spots because the draw is held only one day earlier before the competition starts and by right, everybody is already here in KL.

That's why the original method was better than the lucky draw system. Whoever wants it so bad will do whatever is possible to register including lining up at the registration counter as early as possible. That's pretty fair to me, IMHO.

Before we go on further on this issue, regardless of my writings and replies here, it will not effect Multiplay's coverage on WCG Malaysia and future In2 related events. We are doing our job, you are doing your job and together, we are doing counter-check balance for the benefit of Malaysian gaming scene.

NFS ProStreet finished quite early. Below are the Top 4 fellas, which will be continued tmrw at 11:30am.

- [r0r1]m00tsumi
- M1-Heaven
- M1-InControlz
- M1-SpeedDemon

We shall see tmrw who among the four will be up against the mighty FoRza. nod.gif

As for FIFA'08, the slots was quite full, so the competition took a very long time. When I left the venue, I think they just started Round 2 or Round 3 of the tournament. So, I don't know what is the current update.
