Why is this region, of all regions, given the 2 hour treatment?

Probably a lot of epic runs.

I'm losing track.. is this the last episodes of prelims/semi's before Vegas? I wouldn't be surprised if there's a recap of all the regions somewhere in the 2nd hour to catch people up to the Vegas episodes? If so, I expect an insane amount of filler..

No we still have South East... I have no idea what the extra hour's going to be like. |

Why is this region, of all regions, given the 2 hour treatment? Probably because lot of people failed, and only 1 person finished the course (like Ryan in ANW3)? Or maybe because of the awesome run, where ALL 30 people passed the course ;D (nah... j/k) |

Well i saw the first hour and a half, and it had more profiles, less ffd's, more clears, and possibley most importantly, many runs were very slow, people took their time so some lasted like 4 minutes from what i remember. |

I watched the whole thing. They actually showed like 90% of the runs in full and STILL had a long profile for everyone, I guess they were just trying to be more fair with showing everybody? It was nice but they still could have shown pretty much everyone in full in the normal hour if they cut down a minute of each profile.

But at the same time there were still plenty of FF'd clears, about 6 or so I remember...

So it was just 2 hours of the same region without any additional footage? Interesting. Next week is back to an hour.. so I found it odd.

The 2 hour thing probably had to do with filling out the schedule, because they allocated 2 hours to ANW for June 18 way back in March.

This had to be my favorite region. Also, I see that Jake Smith got the Half-Life lambda tattooed on his back...

I wasn't surprised that the hosts mispronounced genin as "jenin."
