Hi!
Recently I was contacted by a representative from the Korean website Bbulsori. They are organising a team league and would like a Foreigner All-Star Team to take part. I got into contact with iCCup.dayfly who has been functioning as a translator for us. From what we've gathered, these are some of the details:
32 teams will partake (including Minus, Kal, Shield, Ever, White, n.Die)
Matches are played 6v6, Winner's League format.
Maps are La Mancha, Neo Aztec, Circuit Breakers, Neo Bloody Ridge and Fighting Spirit.
32 teams are placed in 8 groups of 4, top 16 advance.
Matches are played Mon/Wed/Thur/Sunday (the organiser agreed to let the foreign team play on Sundays) at 20:00 KST (that's noon CET). Server is either Fish or Brain (not sure yet)
So, iccup.Dayfly (Hyeon) and me are going to try and make a Foreign All-Star team and we're going to use this topic to recruit people. The tricky thing is the playtime, which is really bad for any American players. If you are a top player (think about performance in TSL, ISL, GC, Defiler tours etc), can make it at this time, and are interested in playing in this, please post below.
We need to field 6 players, so we’re looking to recruit about 8 to 10, so that we have some leniency if people can’t make the time.
Players showing interest:
Pro7ect, Bakuryu, Ace, eOnzerg, dsaqwe, technics, kapyo, kidcanada, mad, zaraki, michaelOD, choosy, jumper, GoTunk!, Assault, sOte[raGe], Siz)Beggar
Players that need to man up and get back to practising broodwar:
Infernal, arew, GoD, Dinot, (satanik? :3)
If there are any further questions I'd be happy to try and answer them.
Couple of points brought up by others:
+ Show Spoiler +
- Conflicts with Defiler (and possibly other tournaments).
It's a tricky thing that all the tournaments are on the weekend. And whereas I feel on one hand that we should try to rally together as a foreign scene to show these Koreans what we're made of, this also includes that I don't want to impose this project on others. I'll see if I can talk to the relevant people, but I don't want to ask for a a delay of tournament A in favour of tournament B.
- Sziky and Michael
Definitely on the list of people we'd like to see involved. They should be getting contacted but if anyone else sees them around please point them here. This also goes for other players that you feel should be reading this. Please give them the link to this topic
- Abuse and BM
I talked to Dayfly and we won't allow any known hackers/cheaters/abusers on the team. Also we will not tolerate BM. I agree that, as representatives of the whole of the foreign community, we should behave properly (no matter if BM is "international"). If a player BMs their opponent, the opposing team, the organiser, or fellow teammates they will be kicked off the team and, should any money be won, forfeit all rights to a share of it. (People who know me know I'm quite anal about BM, but as we have a representative role to fill I feel these terms are quite reasonable).
edit: looks like their rulebook forbid any in-game talking.
