When can we expect a final team list?

[AgarHarsh]

Just wondering, is the match schedule going to be available before the event? It would really make a big difference.

Also, are there any rule changes we should know about? I know IRI did a bunch of cool stuff, just wondering if you guys are implementing any rule changes.

To my knowledge, we will not have access to the software that would be able to generate the schedule until setup for the event, especially because we have so many breaks, longer cycles, and other tweaks we would need to make, which as far as I know can only be done in the FMS system, which we won't have until Thursday and/or Friday.

Will there be a live stream of this event?

Or at least youtube videos of the matches. I am really looking forward to seeing some of the exhibition matches - flashlight, tug of war, human player etc.

FYI, the matchmaker software (at least standalone) will only generate schedules with up to 20 matches per team. Not sure if it behaves differently when it's called from FMS.
