In anticipation of the new season on iCCup we are happy to present you with a small list of additional features to try. These new innovative features should help to improve your iCCup experience.
The first innovation is the rank limit command / rl. Now you do not have to spend a long time searching for a player at your skill level, or kicking time-wasters who are far above or below your own skill level. All you need to do is specify the rank of the player or the ladder point limit of the players that you wish to join your game.
Here's an example: / rl 6000 7000 (Only those players who from 6000 to 7000 points may join). / rl 10000 (Only a player who has more 10000 points may join) / rl c-c + (yOnly those who are ranked between C- to C+ may join)
Are you tired of players are not using antihack? Now this problem is easily solved. By utilising yet another new command / nah (no antihack) players not using iCCup's AntiHack feature will not be able to join your game. Additionally, the country that a player is playing from will be displayed when you join a game with a tag ([KR] for Korean, [AU] for Australian, etc.).
The next new feature is specifically helpful for those active in a clan. The list of new commands available is found below:
/ clan help (/ ch; Help) / clan list (/ cl; Shows a list of everyone who is in the clan) / clan msg (/ cm, / cw; Send a message to all clanmates) / clan online (/ co; Show all clan mates who are online) / clan off (/ c off; Disable all clan notifications) / clan on (/ c on; Include all clan related alerts) / clan state (/ c state; Shows the current status regarding clan alerts, i.e. ON or OFF)
Also worth noting is that now all the clans have at their disposal clan channels, to which the player will be automatically directed when you log on to the server.
Finally, and perhaps the most interesting new innovation — a new rank. A distinguishing letter has not been assigned as of yet, but the beginner rank will be identified by this icon . This rank is positioned even lower than the D- to help those who have only just recently met with StarCraft and their level of play is significantly lower than the average D- player. Accordingly, in order to be demoted to D- you must fall to 900 ladder points, instead of the previous 850 points. Also, players in the lowest rank will lose 20 ladder points for a loss.
Thanks ICCup for giving us semi-competitive players a place to play with such good quality features/gaming environment.
Already played 9 games, and 4 people have gone through the effort to bash me for being higher than D rank, and playing against D ranks...I mean wtf? its the first day, who else can I play against? lol
I noticed this offseason had ALOT of low level players complaining about being beat by good players at the beginning of the season. I still don't get what the big deal is

yeah I feel bad for koreans, specially during the early season...although they do make up a larger portion of the iccup population, and will mostly play against each other. Personally I like the addition because it allows me to know the gamestyle I might be facing.

Yeah, if you are facing a peruvian or other south american zerg and it's pvz then you know to make like 7 cannons before core.

I like to know where people are from I usually do not open with that question, usually I just answer them when they ask and ask in return. I really have no problem with it, I mean its easy to ignore and a silly thing to rage over imo.
i just kick kids with full lag bars... which 90% of the time is koreans. also when people ask me "from" i say: Them. From? Me. here Them. what? Me. yes Them. you speak english? Me: 7 They just stop talking, probably confused out of their mind.

haha i'm so sad about that!
Guy: "From?" Me: "Your mom" Guy: "fuck u noob"
Dude, I said the same thing once and got chat muted or whatever for it lol. Does anyone know what the new rank is actually called? Like have they given it a name or am I just going to have to refer to it as purpleish/pink mouse rank?

Rofl, I know exactly what you mean. I always try to pick a country people don't even know exists but you start to run out after 5-6... then i go to the weird sounding ones and just generally random ones after a while.
