It's a huge tournament, it's THE BIGGEST tournament of the year, we need time to make sure every registration is correct, and all updates and changes has been made.
Late fee will be turned on 8PM tonight!
Please, note that any change request will incur the same late fee, and any withdrawal will have the same amount as refund charge.
