The idea of WLC came when me and sterben were discussing random things. We normally plan a lot of things, but implement very few of 'em. Our plan was to do WWC-2019 next year, because this one was almost over. But the idea of 1v1 stroke both of us because initially it seemed an easy task, as we've did 4v4 tournament before, so comparitively, a 1v1 tournament seemed any easy task for us. I didn't wanted to let this idea go bogus, so I started working on the WLC trailer right away, which took me a week to complete, and while it was exporting, I made a draft thread on forums, announcing the tournament. And it spread like a fire on homepage, and when the trailer came out, it created an even more intensified hype among players, so we got sufficient amount of players in the very first week we started taking submissions.
We planned on bringing back the old team together (WWC-18) but unfortunately, none was able to contribute in organizing it with us, which was absolutely upsetting, because I thought we wouldn't be able to find anyone else that could be competent enough to do the stuff we've been doing. When you (star) showed interest in streaming and organzing, I surely hesitated at first, because I knew you didn't have any experience regarding this, but like you, everyone else except sterben was new to this, including Cryptic, Matt, LittleFireFly, Vivek, legokid, etc. I wasn't confident in myself either, because I always worked as a Co-host for Chrono, where he did 90% of the job. So it was somewhat new for me as well. But it turned out that our 'new' talent did it a lot better than I could've done myself. I'm really proud of you all, and I'm really thankful that you guys decided to help us out with this event, it's absolutely been a great experience, and we got to learn a lot from it. Because of my university, I wasn't able to be there in most of the matches, especially because of my exams, but I saw you guys covered it up really well, otherwise, this event may have ceased at some point.
In short, thank you so much Star! for streaming, commentating and moderating nearly all the matches, i know it must've been stressful for you, and FireFly for being with you there and moderating matches, even solely sometimes xD and MATT! for streaming the matches and keeping us amused throughout the event! Cryptic! for being there in the very first matches like me! XD and Sterben ofc, never saw such a devoted and hardworking dude, for dealing with all the messages and timezone stuff, and being there in most of the matches. And ofc I'm not missing Vivek and legokid here for joining us on commentating panel in matches! And in the end, to all the Sponsors that contributed in major part of the prize pool i.e Chronospectrum, mattyspectrum, and Bulletz4Breakfast. AND FOR THE LAST! MAX!! the event system has worked absolutely awesome! it made our job a lot easier than it could've been otherwise. Thanks for watching the streams and keep bringing new features to the game and to the spectator tab!
I have much more to say on this, but I'll save it for the Finals xd
