Iccup maps are:
- renamed (to iccup_xxx)
- re-compressed/protected
to begin with. So they are considered separate versions/maps (as far as BW's internal map recognition is concerned), anyway.
Appealing to the author's will to oppose a new naming convention is laughable. Neither were the map titles actually changed on any fundamental level, nor is there even anything new going on.
No one seems to have opposed the iccup practice to just remove all credits from maps and just put an "iccup version" in instead (for an identical, simply relabled and repackaged map version, on top of that!).
If you play fish, you have probably gathered a hundred versions of FS alone by now, all of which only differ in the file name...
Seriously, there is no issue here that would be worth wasting any more posts about...

What channels do TLers or foreigners in general hang out in on iCCup other than the ladder channels?

I used to stay at Op TL or Op TeamLiquid (one was replaced by the other at some point years ago, I forget which tho because they are both so inactive), but nowadays I just host a private channel that my friends join when we play together -_-; As far as I can tell there is usually very little activity at Op TL/Teamliquid. I've seen 3-4 people there maybe 2-3 times in the past few months.

I usually hang around there, but I'm currently without proper internet so I can't join :/

Lol, yup.

I personally think Jade 1.0 is better than version 2.1 ; that third gas strip made it more difficult to win games pvz

How many players can The Iccup Abyss Server have?

Just for the record, every map Ive put in does have credits in the map description. (I know Freakling wasnt saying otherwise, but it could be misunderstood).

Luna has not been changed gameplay wise. It is only a name change. This is the case for all except 2 of the maps.
The only maps that have had gameplay updates are Overwatch and Cross Game.
Version 1.06 Cross Game
-Fixed pylon walling at 3 o clock
Version 2.1 Overwatch
-Changed terran wall at top main, 1st marine spawns inside wall now
-Changed pylon walling at 6 o clock (and 12), bit harder to mine hop now
I didnt make pictures because the building placement has not changed. You still place the buildings in the same way as before. You might be able to do slightly different walls now though.
Overwatch top main:

You can place the depots in different ways.

Generally I like a healthy gas 3rd as well. They could have kept the gas and made the ramp into the 3rd a bit bigger instead or something (just off the top of my head). Dont forget that Neo Jade does have other changes too though, the shape of the naturals and resource placement there in particular.
Essentially though, iCCup is simply using the latest version as used in the korean leagues. Its not an endorsement necessarily.
Similar with Neo Ground Zero, they just removed the gas from the 3rd completely. Its partly what motivated Toad Stone.

Bump!
There has been a recent surge of korean players on Iccup starting with Shinee's (nick edgegirl) enter a week ago or so.
I'm not sure who everyone is but players like HestiaSin, Asianprotoss and lshlshlsh might very well be ex-pros and they bring more high level amateurs. Some of whom might be Sarin_modesty, Sarin_rOrO, SeolHyun, gksmfaowj and others.
Also oldies liked huCkleberry_P just recently started playing again, and maybe we'll ErOs_Sherry start playing again too..
Games at A- and above seems to be more frequently available now. I'm kind of excited.
Maybe we should make a new thread about it if it keeps going in this direction, a who is who thread perhaps. That might get some attention and "lure" even more players to Iccup.

well, we were hoping to attract more high level korean players. I think in this case it's due to the changes made by the fish server rather than our own merit, but it's a good delevopment, i agree!

Please post replays if you play some pro- pro vs foreigner are always entertaining/instructive. Plus if they're really pro, you can say you're A++ if you win and no one can make fun of you if you lose
