So many words, so little time. Whatever it is, I'm behind it.

Righto, time to name the tournament. I wasn't gonna keep it Official GTM Tournament forever. My current suggestions are 'GTM Official' and 'GTM Championship Series', I prefer the latter. I believe Mr AS has thought of using HAVOC as an acronym for something, in the GTM discord, although the name doesn't really seem like it would fit this tournament, imo.

Suggest your names and I'll cherry pick a select few and we may have a vote (unless there's significant support for a name suggested, already.)

GTM Championship would be the most appropriate title. It may be unoriginal but it definitely conveys the importance.

Right then, if that's what we're going with I can finish working on the logo.

We have a logo! (courtesy of Kill)

All that's left is to wait until the beta release of Retooled to judge whether we want it as the tournament metagame.

RA2: Retooled has been released. I really would like to push this as the metagame for the tournament but I want to see what people think about the proposal, so I'm putting a poll up, be sure to vote on it. However, the time is nigh to start getting this moving into signups so that the meta in Retooled is untouched as possible.

Well damn, this is becoming quite big. I suppose I'll come out of tournament dormancy for this.

I'd rather stick with DSL 2.2 but we'll see how the voting goes.

DSL 2.2 is awful for competitive play though

You have a point there. What about Stock or DSL 2.1?

I kind of have a feeling that there is no point in returning back to DSL 2.1 though.

Stock will be nothing more than "HS vs Popups: the tournament"

dsl 2.1 is still awful honestly, stock isn't as bad. best bet is retooled or ironforge

dont worry, there are people who are actually not plebs and can make a decent non hs/popup  :p

I have no idea what RA2 Retooled is other than a new pack which appears to be new. With that being the case, I like the idea of using it.

I'd prefer not to be up against veterans of the DSL pack.

Is there anyone in that 12 that definitely wouldn't enter if it was Retooled (other than Mech)?

We should have 2 separate categories: Standard and IRL.

Rob has already proposed that but I'm worried about the demand for an IRL category, so there will be a poll about that soon.

pls no IRL, no for an official tournament. You're just gonna have a ton of people entering tryhard stuff that barely counts as IRL, someone at some point will get salty that their bot wasn't allowed but another one was, etc. Leave IRL tournaments to the people passionate about IRL (Rob).
