A new comer to the face of an old game has a very hard time figuring these things out on their own. After all a lot of the simple things like adding friends and joining games are things we learned so long ago we forget that even we had to learn how to do them as well.
And you don't have to be a noob to feel the cold shoulder of the afk wall.

Joining and Creating Games
Click on the join button to select the game you want to join.
You will notice that the names of the games are written by the host.
There are tabs to see the genre of game.
The main genres will almost always be
-Melee
-Top vs Bottom
-Use map settings
-one on one "Games will be considered ladder"
Also a simple note, when a game has red bars, you will not be able to join because of latency.
To create a game click on the create button and arrange the tabs to fit your needs to how you want the game to look.
-Pick Game type
-Game name
-Browse "to select map"
*If your using a wifi connection and your ports are not forwarded, people can not join your game. (Look of port fowarding on liquidpedia)
*Side Notes
At the heart of every multiplayer experince is the human element.
Making friends may seem very hard at first, but try to first better yourself in the game and hopefully people will be attracted to you.
Fate? maybe
Latency Trick aka Lat Trick
Somtimes you will notice that both you and your friend can't join each others game.
Well there are two things you can do. You can either portforward your router or do a simple lat trick.
Lat Trick #1
This is the most common way to be able to join each other's games.
First find a game on the join game listing, preferablly 3v3s or use map setting games because there will be many slots open.
Second you and your friend both have to be sitting in the game lobby for just a split second at the same time.
Third leave the game and now you should hurry up and make a game!
Lat Trick #2
This one is a bit more less bad mannered to your fellow gamers.
First your friend must make a game
Second you will try joining the game, however it will say too high of latency
Third you will then make a game and tell your friend to leave his game and then join yours. "It actually works"!

/nah
so people with no antihack can't join your games.
|
// use ingame (before the game starts to select opponents)
/rl 2000 = do not allow people under 2k points to join the game
/rl D+ = same
/rl D+ C = only allow people to join the game between 2k and 5k points
/rl 2000 5000 = same
/join ladder 2x2 = join the channel 
alt+n = enters the selected account on the chat
/w enj + tab = enters usernames in the channel which starts with enj. you can tab more to switch between them.
/kick /ban as channel operator as usual
hope that helps some of you ^^
edit:
/clearstats YES = resets the stats of your account
/transfer newaccount = transfer your stats to the account newaccount
clancommands as friendcommands
/c l = clanlist
/c m = msg to all clan member
/dnd = not getting any massages (retype /dnd again to remove it)
/away "eating lunch" = gives user the feedback that you are away (retype to remove)
/motw = shows the actual map of the weeks which gives +30% ladderpoints in this week
/time = to get the random server time = most unuseful command on this server ...
for more commands type "/help" to see more commands

also open ports 6112 if you can't create and want games.

Played 4 games total on iCCup so far. Nedless to say I'm 0-4 in stats with 4 pretty brutal losses. I try to face D- players but higher players keep joining. Is there a command to like, not allow players OVER 1000 points join a game?
Also, what maps are acceptable for iCCup and where do I find them when I create a game? (I tried downloading map pack from iCCup website but it didn't work. I have a few of the maps that I got from joining other ppls games)

Use /rl 0(or something low) 950.

You can use /maps to see entire map-pool and Map-of-the-Week maps, which have 130% points for playing on them.
Maps you download from other people go into folder /download/ inside StarCraft/Maps/.

get practice partners! mass 1v1 or perhaps 2v2 to get ur games going.

I love how you always use the short form but then you use /f remove instead of /f r
also, /w and /m are the same, and /f o shows all the online friends, while /f l shows you the whole friendlist (/f o is especially better when you have 50 (or close to 50) friends on your FL, which is also the maximum btw).

I joined not that long ago, and I'm really grateful for these tips 
Now I must overcome the anxiety/fear-of-being-completely-destroyed, and actually launch a game X_X
|
is there a way to use APM Live and antihack?
|
Remember to add in /dnd. (do not disturb, makes you immune to PM spams)
Very useful to have, especially if your opponent is BM and is bitter about losing a match.
|
I believe /help command shows a list with most of the commands.
|
Just remember: losing your first 100 games is perfectly normal and you shouldn't feel bad about it. Celebrate every game that's an exception!

Do it, it makes it simpler for people like me that have a mac that can't use the AH ._.
edit: I am /nah
Also, I find the command to be quite amusing.

I've been playing ICCup for years and some of these I've never even known. Thanks!

/dnd is a terrible option for that use, as it blocks all the incoming messages, and not just of that one..
hence /ignore (or /squelsh) and then the username of the person you want to ignore works way better. I believe it also ignores their non /w messages in chat channels. and even ingame iirc

Protoss always cheeses on 2p maps in TvP, notably: destination

I am a masters zerg in sc2 but for some reason I got killed by a 1 base d- terran when I had 3 bases. TT
I think my macro is kinda ok but where can I find strategy good strategy guides in english?
I think it is fun to see the roots of the game I spend som much time and thought on.
Also there were only koreans in the chats.

wow. I've played on iccup for a long time and never knew this command existed. I can finally stop kicking those evil C- users joining my D only game. muhahaha

Little correction to your port forward thing... It doesn't matter if you're on wifi or not, if you have a router you will need to open your ports, even if you're wired into the router.
|
yea /nah is great...especially in team games, where its almost certain theres going to be someone without antihack lagging up the place.
|
I've googled my ass on this problem and I can't get a solution. My main problem with Iccup is that I can't host any games because my ports are blocked. This means I need to spend 10-15 minutes trying to find a game to join and play, sometimes it takes so long that I just stop trying 
I added the Bnet ports in my router but it still won't work
If I'm missing something obvious here please let me know.
Router settings below. Maybe I need to type in a different IP address?

Try port fowarding from 6112 To end on 6112 as well.
|
I've forwarded it pretty much the same way, 6112 till 6119 (because you need all of these ports to be sure), and I've got no problems.
Only problems I encountered was when our router's DHCP gave me a different IP than entered in that rule, so I had to add another for that IP

This may be totally irrelevant but I have a simple question.
My friend has a starcraft that isn't legit (meaning he has downloaded off a torrent site). Is it still possible for him to play on iccup without a proper bought starcraft?

Teamliquid probably isn't the place to be asking about this. However you can legitimately play on ICCup using the copy of starcraft they have on their ftp (doesn't have campaign or access to battle.net servers, but you can play on ICCup). This can be found here.
|
This thread was very useful and BTW ICCUP has 815 players online right now.
The highest number I've seen in the last couple of months I've played.
BW dying my ass :D
|
I don't want to bump this up, but since this is a thread focused around ICCUP and using it I would like to ask why I'm getting the cannot connect to Battlenet right now when trying to play on it?
Is ICCUP down?

I think so. I haven't been able to connect.

Yea iccup goes down here and there, especially the page.
|
|
|
Even though your bump had very little to do with the OP, I just wanted to say thanks for doing it anyways!
There are several commands in here I had never seen.
/nah and /rl will be quite useful.
Thanks for bump!

Any idea why I can't get past the accessing fastest server when trying to log on to iccup today?
I have experienced anything similar in the past.

Yes, we finally abandoned Brood War, WoW is just far more promising at the moment. Nobody of the admins wanted to any work, especially with all the negative feed back lately. These MOTWs suck, that part is laggy, I can't forward my routers, etc. Since noboy wanted to do the job, most of us transitioned to either the DotA EU Staff or went inactive alltogether. A relaunch is definitely not planned.
+ Show Spoiler +
Today the season ended, the servers are down for maintenance and should be up in +-6 hours most likely; depends on the mood of the developers.

Is the server being down the reason why I couldn't see it on my list? Reinstalled iCCUP for while HoTS is down and couldn't work out if I'd done something wrong

I fixed my issues so ignore my previous post. Seems my connection allows me to connect to games first time this time. Initially I always had issues.

necropost for sure and welcome to TL.net forums :D
I think you need to install additional language packs for your windows to see for example korean letters.
Are people actually still playing on ICCUP?
