Here's all the stuff from last time:+ Show Spoiler +UPDATE October 12th, 2010 - Just curious if there is any interest in us attempting the FFA goal over the stream. Due to the nature of the current Funday Monday objective I don't know that we can do custom games with a bunch of iCCup casters unfortunately, and if everyone is doing it I don't think it results in very amazing game play. I am thinking of ways to do it and be fun even if it may "void" the potential to be on Day9 but it would still be fun to play and inspired by Funday Monday. Current thoughts are things like 5-player FFA, and we select 2 people at random who have to follow the Funday Monday, and only the players who are actually doing it know that they are while everyone else is playing normally.Well, we didn't make it onto the Daily but that doesn't mean it wasn't fun. Here are some highlights from the stream. In the future I'll break the VODs up per game probably. Here are highlights of the VODs of the one's that I submitted to Mr. Plott: #13 - Warp Prism, Zealot, Marine, Ultralisk - http://ustre.am/_GjdK:tpD#21 - Raven, Marine, Hydralisk, Baneling - http://ustre.am/_GjGp:tpE#26 - Zerglings, Zerglings, Zerglings, Zerglings - http://ustre.am/_Gkkn:tpHBONUS! #7 - Planetary Fortress, Zealot, Mothership, Pheonix - http://ustre.am/_GiOz:tpJReplay Pack available here: [url blocked] VODs: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/10079383http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/10082103http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/10083664http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/10085441http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/10087919This Friday, at around 8PM EDT (time isn't entirely hard set yet, may be earlier may be a bit later) - me and a few other folks from the lovely crew at iCCup.TV will be attempting Day9's Funday Monday objective for this week - summary as follows: In a team game (either 3v3 or 4v4) - each player on your team must announce (in ALL chat) the one unit that they will use in that game and use only that unit. You are still allowed to make Queens, Overlords/Overseers, SCVs/Probes/Drones, and Observers. WHAT: iCCup.TV Staff and Friends attempt Day9's Funday Monday challenge.
WHERE: iCCup TV on Ustream
WHEN: Saturday, Oct 23 1:00am GMT (GMT+00:00)
WHO: iCCup.TV casters and friends.
We may also have some audience members join us again.
We will likely have some plans of our own to achieve this goal, but we will also be doing it for a while so it's very likely we will be taking suggestions from the stream as well. Goal of this is to just have fun and maybe give Mr. Plott something worth getting excited about.

we've been devising some brilliant ideas as opposed to just 4 people massing marine. cant wait!
|
glhf to the iccup.tv players.
Sounds great. Unfortunately I promised to pick up someone 1hr into it (3AM CEST), but hopefully I'll catch most of it.
This kind of initiative is really what is needed to make funday monday even better. I'm definitely excited.
I'm hoping to see someone successfully choose mothership as their unit (protected by allies and cannons early on ofc).
|
So epic. Should be highly entertaining. If I happen to be doing nothing else on Friday night, I'll totally be watching. I can see this being surprisingly effective actually, haha.
|
We should definitely be going for 3-4 hours if not more. We'll see how it goes on Friday.
|
I don't get this funday monday. This is what most of the lower level 3v3 and 4v4 are, the only diffrence being now you have to announce what the unit you are massing will be.
|
You have to announce it and you can't build other units to support it. And I doubt Day9 will go with the group that masses marine/marauder/voidrays. Gotta be creative with it.

If you always just mass marines, then try something different. Try massing ghosts and see how efficient you can be with snipes + emps. Try seeing if you're able to rush to carrier + bc + broodlord in 3v3. Do whatever you think could be fun. If you do not think this kind of thing is fun just don't participate (I won't as I don't really like playing team games, but it'll be a blast watching what others can come up with).

can i play and spam phoenixes or ravens? 8)
iccup inhouse 4v4 on prodiG's labyrinth of wonders imo
|
Mass Infestor would be soooo much fun if you could get the gas to support it. Just burrow-move like 30 Infestors into a base and unleash shitloads of Infested Terrans. =D
|
Going t3 is too easy they're too powerfull when massed lol.
Win combination of my 4on4 yesterday was sentries/medivacs(with PF)/ghosts with nukes/zerglings. All other games went lost (10 games or so).
|
oh i'll volunteer to spam medivacs while my z teammates make nothing but invincible hydras or something 8)
|
I would totally try doing this with orb/shiver/joshsuth since we've done 4v4's as a tema before lol, and thats how we always play our games is everyone only makes 1 unit, but hard to coordinate all being online, and so busy with school =\
|
Yeah, JoshSuth is going to be at IEM or whatever so he is ducking us.
We may try to bring in some pros if they are willing, who knows but I think it will be fun regardless.
|
As I have 3 midterms (1 thursday, 2 friday) I'll definitely be up for playing all Friday night. Just message me through Bnet. Will be fun.
And the point of the Funday is to do it with a weird unit composition. I've found that you have to have one person mass T1 in early game (Marines, Lings, etc) while other 3 tech quickly. Cannons are a plus too. Me and a few of the vVv guys tried it last night for a few games. It's harder than it looks to win with a weird combination.
|
Yeah, when thinking about it seriously that seems to be the way to do it, but at least at first I think we'll just go for the craziest things we can think of.

Count me in if there's space.
[edit] MULEs still allowed?

Just kicking this up again, I think it's going to be a lot of fun - we will see how things go. I think we may even be finishing the showmatch of CatZ vs Taurent that was interrupted due to Battle.net issues though that hasn't ben set in stone yet and isn't absolute. Though I do intend to have something as sort of a break in the middle even though 3v3/4v4 shenanigans are always fun.
