Haha really? Sounds about right. I was legitimately considering going. There's a handful of others as well that would place but I guess they wanted jehar vs dahang winners quarters finals.
I got a response back. Apparently why the tournaments are BYOC is because there are going to be 8 tournaments ran in total, which is too many to be ran on sanctioned tournament computers. I understand this point however I don't see how some events like the duel tournaments couldn't be more accommodating so that more players could enter, such as having a few designated computers for players who couldn't bring their own PC, or have those same players play on another player's machine who's in their pool.
While I do appreciate IDsoftware showing us Q2 players some love, this tournament's structure is still disappointing. Even though it's a BYOC tournament and thus not true eSports, this tournament is still important to the Q2 community since we haven't had another Q2 LAN tournament since 11 years ago. Also with $10,000 on the line, I find it a bit ridiculous that the most competitive veteran players don't have a chance to compete for that prize, especially since we are the only players who have spent years and even decades playing duel while others only played it casually or moved onto Q3 and other games. That's why us vets really deserve spots to enter this tournament.
Anyway, I just hope a Q2 player wins it. I know that Jehar has a BYOC seat and others in clan BTF, so I hope those guys gatekeep for us.
Will be donating my time to help in anyway for Jehar and Deadbeat. I agree with what you said

This entire thread blows my mind. Still people whining around about ac cheating etc. Alpha has always been the biggest cunt in the q2 crowd. I would of thought he managed to get a girlfriend or moved out of his moms house, nope still cares way to much about this game, all the long hours sweating his ass off in a chair worrying about the likes of razor and others. You're worthless
