Sorry if you guys don't agree with buying ladder points but don't blame it on the StarCraft administration, it really wasn't our decision and it came as a surprise to us as well.

It's only laggy for you due to the nature of internet(it has to travel from Russia to wherever you're living).
The iCCup Store helps keep iCCup afloat on its bills, not make these great tournaments for players to have fun in.

I realized that it came from the russian Kremlin DotA administration. Which is why I want you to move to Birdie's server! We need good administrators like you, and we need you free from the shackles of the corrupt ICCup federal government.
I really appreciate your work, but I feel like foreign Brood War is funded by dirty DotA money - russians who bought ladder points  . Like a school for disabled kids being funded by drug trade.
Edit: What I mean is that we are piggybacking off of DotA. That game is the reason the ICCup server is up, not Brood War. We have great individuals who do a great job, but I don't think we benefit anything from the main ICCup body except for a server.

C'mon guys, don't be mean. Sziky needs this money.

good! just need players to sign in!

vOdToasT, first of all this Birdie's server needs to exist.

hope to see more tours from iccup 
|
- Cash Tour Feature
- This feature has been created by the iCCup Starcraft Head Administrators and it's reserved to BW Tournaments.
- The money will be guaranteed and managed exclusively by the Starcraft Head Administrators: iCCup.s0ldi3r and iCCup.Face, in the most of cases only by iCCup.Face since he will host the Tours.
- The Tour will be announced via SC Calendar via iCCup server and via TeamLiquid in time.
- The kind of Tours (opened to all, restricted by rank, restricted by real skills) will be explicitly written in the Tour Page.
example of non-allowed accounts restrictions for low skilled tours: (applied to all the accounts of the player signed)
— no previous season records (new accounts)
— previous seasons recorded with less than 20 games
— previous season records 1v1 over C- ( > 3999)
— previous season records 2v2 over B- ( > 6999)
- SC Points Feature
The "buy ladder points" feature exists, but it's not only limited to A- like some of you think, it's also limited at top200 which means you can't buy any rank over top200 (it was around C at the end of last season, actually is D+ 2951)
*will be edited to top100 soon limiting the access to C/C+ in any case (it's less during the season)
It's good for high skilled players who want to save time and jump the low lvl boring games. remember the max rank you will get is #101 so it's not something makes laddering insignificant.
- Special Icon Feature
Exists, but it's not directly managed by Starcraft Administrators and unluckily iCCup developers are not supporting us very well.
We were ready to allow users to buy icons for cash giving 50% to ICCUP and to keep 50% for BW events, but we had to give up not having the right support (the main problem is to add custom icons shortly)
If there are ppl interested we can make a similar feature directly managed by Starcraft Head Administrators allowing you to buy non-customized icons (100% of the moneys will be used for BW events).
+ Show Spoiler [SPECIAL ICONS AVAILABLE] +
Players who hit A- 1v1 and/or A+ 2v2 have the rights to ask for permanent special icon.

ok ok this is a good idea but i dont have credit card to donate via paypal , i can do it via bank account , any have a bank account for iccup in peru¿
ZancCo I'm sure you can link your bank count to your PayPal account.
What about a test Tour (opened to all) registration fee 1$ Sunday?

So I can ask for a special icon with any ID over A- in the past if it's on my history? Also, in terms of buying icons, I was thinking if you guys added more or you could modify your own (i.e like the clan tag icons)

Now it seems like your fishing for $. Why not as a test tournament, ask the owners of iccup that focus so much on dota, to host a 1 thousand dollar tournament with all the money they are making from dota.

Slow process... He is trying to do a trial for 1$, you can buy a drink at mcdonalds for the same price, if you don't want to play you don't have to pay. However, I am curious if you can do something to gain iccup dollars (i.e, event/accomplishments such as play 1000games = 50 iccup dollars or something, winners of icc-cl get some prize, etc). Nobody is trying to get rich from BW because it won't happen (unless you are a korean streamer) so any free money is always appreciated to those who will game anyway.

I understand what you're trying to say but what bothers me is that iccup itself doesn't really care about BW. Only the admins from the bw divisions do care. That being said i'm very skeptical giving any sort of money to an organization that can definitely afford to sponsor a tournament but just choices not to do it and still retains 10% of the money that people give them. While they pour in more and more money into the Dota scene.

You're mixing the StarCraft administration with the rest of iCCup together which isn't appropriate because of how seperated we are.
You're giving money to the highest authority in the StarCraft administration, and they can't afford to sponsor tournaments nor are they supporting DotA.

Your sources being which? ICCup doesn't really generate profit, neither for DotA, nor for any other title they feature. If you honestly assume that your assumption is true, then why doesn't TL throw a $1k BW tournament off their own money, why did other related portals like WGTour not spend their "profit" on giving it back to the scene?

I'm a little excited for these tournaments.
:D
I hope they are recorded. I also offer my services as a co-commentator. I am a much better commentator than I am player. I reached B+ as a player, but I swear my commentating is A- at least.
Call me.

Are you seriously comparing Team Liquid to a organization like iccup? TL has so done much more for the scene worth waaay more than a 1k tourney, And i don't remember that team liquid ever asking money from the community to fund their tournaments and then keep a 10% for themselves.

We were ready to allow users to buy icons for cash giving 50% to ICCUP and to keep 50% for BW events, but we had to give up not having the right support (the main problem is to add custom icons shortly)
If there are ppl interested we can make a similar feature directly managed by Starcraft Head Administrators allowing you to buy non-customized icons (100% of the moneys will be used for BW events).
+ Show Spoiler [SPECIAL ICONS AVAILABLE] +
Players who hit A- 1v1 and/or A+ 2v2 have the rights to ask for permanent special icon.

ok ok this is a good idea but i dont have credit card to donate via paypal , i can do it via bank account , any have a bank account for iccup in peru¿ ZancCo I'm sure you can link your bank count to your PayPal account. What about a test Tour (opened to all) registration fee 1$ Sunday? Now it seems like your fishing for $. Why not as a test tournament, ask the owners of iccup that focus so much on dota, to host a 1 thousand dollar tournament with all the money they are making from dota. Your sources being which? ICCup doesn't really generate profit, neither for DotA, nor for any other title they feature. If you honestly assume that your assumption is true, then why doesn't TL throw a $1k BW tournament off their own money, why did other related portals like WGTour not spend their "profit" on giving it back to the scene? Are you seriously comparing Team Liquid to a organization like iccup?
Yes. I'm not going into detail, I got the feeling you're just a bad troll.

- This feature has been created by the iCCup Starcraft Head Administrators and it's reserved to BW Tournaments.
- The money will be guaranteed and managed exclusively by the Starcraft Head Administrators: iCCup.s0ldi3r and iCCup.Face, in the most of cases only by iCCup.Face since he will host the Tours.
- The Tour will be announced via SC Calendar via iCCup server and via TeamLiquid in time.
- The kind of Tours (opened to all, restricted by rank, restricted by real skills) will be explicitly written in the Tour Page.
example of non-allowed accounts restrictions for low skilled tours: (applied to all the accounts of the player signed)
— no previous season records (new accounts)
— previous seasons recorded with less than 20 games
— previous season records 1v1 over C- ( > 3999)
— previous season records 2v2 over B- ( > 6999)
- SC Points Feature
The "buy ladder points" feature exists, but it's not only limited to A- like some of you think, it's also limited at top200 which means you can't buy any rank over top200 (it was around C at the end of last season, actually is D+ 2951)
*will be edited to top100 soon limiting the access to C/C+ in any case (it's less during the season)
It's good for high skilled players who want to save time and jump the low lvl boring games. remember the max rank you will get is #101 so it's not something makes laddering insignificant.

TL has so done much more for the scene worth waaay more than a 1k tourney, And i don't remember that team liquid ever asking money from the community to fund their tournaments and then keep a 10% for themselves.
Iccup has no obligation to follow anyone else's format. Complaing about this is just ridiculous. Iccup has determined this is their best solution to keep foreign BW active on there servers. Regardless of whether it is successful or not, at least they are offering a service. You, as a player and thinking human being, can use your decision making part of the brain and decide if this is something you want to take part in. Trolling and arguing does nothing but trash this TL thread. Are you intentionally hurting TL and their outstanding staff members?

I'm not trolling or arguing with anybody, All i'm saying it's distasteful for iccup to take 10% from the prize pool. Specially when they do so much for other games and so little for bw.
