Q u o t e:

You can find the schedule of this event below. All times are Seoul Time (GMT +9).
May 19th

11:00 ~ 12:20 : Warcraft 3 Season 5 Consolation Final ( Shy vs. Moon)

19:00 ~ 20:00 : Closing Ceremony

btw for those interested in watching some live Starcraft, Blizzard managed to actually get 4 of the very top Starcraft pros right now (they are often too busy with training/playing for the highly competitive leagues to play in such a minor event to them) for the Starcraft Invitiational:
Nal_Ra, Nada, Savior, Bisu[Shield], along with 4 foreigners (non-koreans), hopefully one of which can take a game (testie fighting!). ( I believe you can watch the games live from both http://sc2.org and http://www.ggl.com and the Round of 8 matches being after the Announcement/Opening/Concert)

Q u o t e:

To understand the sentiment of your post, you have to tell me if Blizzard is good or evil.

Marvelously good in an evil way?

Q u o t e:
Nethaera, I'm guessing Blizzard employees are to remain steadfast in not releasing one enney bittey tiny bit of information until the announcment?

You would be correct. The word is mum. My lips are sealed (which reminds me of a GoGos song btw).

Q u o t e:

Thats good, but what about some "Black Dog"?

It's one of my favorites. ;)

I'm only here to hang out a little and kill time. I'm clock watching just like everyone else.
