At this point, I know that it is not just me. Bnet is very low pop and it is becoming increasingly more difficult to find match-made games.
Additionally, the available custom games are generally not 1v1 obs games.
And so, I propose this thread--a thread where anyone can pop in and say sup and that leads to a game or perhaps 3 or 10.
There is not, to my knowledge, a channel where those from teamliquid default to. Perhaps there should be one. I propose channel TL PLAY. I will be idling there at all free times and I encourage you to join me.
Let's play some fucking starcraft

In the 11 minutes since I have posted the OP, I have been queuing. I have gotten 3 failed matches. Not a single game. This is ridiculous. I hope it is just an MM bug
|
Keep in mind, it's X-mas Eve in the states. Many families start festivities tonight. This may be why you are having a tough time finding an opponent.

I hope it is just an MM bug just go and play on korea, absolutely it's impossible to find 1v1s on USE or USW. i too get the failed match bug so much so that ladder is unusable, and even if i get into a 1v1 lobby in custom games i instantly get kicked for my high win loss.

are you saying that i can only hit people in my realm on ladder?

until the new ladder season comes out and they merge the servers the game will feel pretty dead, it'll pick back up after the merge/new season/team matchmaking gets released
|
you sound like you know something #illuminaticonspiracy bc rn it's shti.
|
they do need to merge the servers tho
|
TL PLAY on what server? I'll hang out there.
And matchmaking is global so shouldn't matter what server you're on tbh...

can we all agree to play us west? im an old time us east player but i switched to west almost exclusively about a month ago because there are next to 0 custom games on east at times when there are quite a few on west.

Same here, but I made the switch to west longer ago. We should all just go there while waiting for the merge.

I play BGH. My lobbies fill instantly. That's evenings for ya.
Making games is hard. I've been getting this a lot, a nasty error:

I'd like to think most non-korean BW players are likely to be in their 30's who would prioritize family. Try again on the 26th
|
better to organise games on the discords?
|
Play iccup if you wanna get games quickly. Or korea server, if the lag aint too bad.

If it doesn't create the lobby right away, just cancel and press okay again.

I stopped playing because a majority of games are either laggy, or they dont start.

The lag has gotten MUCH better, the majority of the time ppl can play on TR16 vs koreans now.
|
I don't think there are necessarily that fewer players, so much as the queue taking longer due to prioritizing proximity over access higher than before. Add Christmas to that, and the queue might get quite long.
Quite annoying when you find a game and the queue suddenly reset, though. But I don't mind - it's well worth enduring for a good while, just to have StarCraft back.
Good initiative gathering players, though!

The que would be fast if it weren’t for the seemingly endless errors.
|
anyone seen anyone in the channel cause i haven't xD

I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Anyway ICCup is a private server that works on 1.6. It's one server for all players. Tons of features via launches, little lag, but no HD graphics as if yet.

yeah you kinda hit on the head what i needed; im quite familiar with iccup only your last clause got me what i was going for

so far we have had a very small number o people in the channel but maybe we will expand. come play ! it's really sad how few people are playing on east O_O
|
I had a long break but will play some more upcoming days.
|
1 year and about 7 in-channel games later who is STILL playing?? come and join me! channel TL PLAY
|
|

Back in the day teamliquid had a server on West with a bot there to keep it up at all times. I think this sort of meeting place is really important. Especially if people are just looking for some practice matches.
The "TL PLAY" channel seems to be empty every time I jump in there...

I have an old computer I am going to convert into a server. When I have the time, I will install SCR on there and put up a channel with a bot. It doesn't matter if people are interested to me. In my experience, the SC community is more of a 'if you build it, they will come' type of community.
|
do what you will. i'll be hangin out here with bnet servers i guess lol
|
It's really not a problem, I will run a 24/7 Bot from now on on USWest @ Op TL-West, someone can make a post about it or I will soon, I think it's a good initiative to get people together until they integrate servers (potentially they said they may)
Channel : Op TL-West @ West server (24/7 chat / gaming channel now)
EDIT : It is Online now, I play mainly on KR server but I will start laddering on west now, let's bring back Op TL-West, would be cool :-)
EDIT 2 : It can be a hub for Play / Observe games as well like it used to be back in the day, I think it's a great initiative, I am on there now.
|
I cannot seem to find the channel man. Are you sure the bot is operational?

op TL-West is dead, where is the bot?

XD you always find a way... ^^
|
dont go to op tl-west go to TL PLAYS because no one is here also xD still get ladder matches at 20-40 seconds so no complaints here. as i grow older i learn that the proclivity to gather people together when ai can just match us is just silly bw will never die woot
|
I don't think it is silly at all. Sometimes people like to chat about the game, or just socialize when they are not in a match.
Regardless of what happens; when I have the time to wipe my laptop and put a bot up, I WILL BE DOING THAT. So hang tight

Prob gone cause you need to be doing more than hosting a bot to get into Liquid I played test games and did about 6 months of Jukdori to join WHITE, if you want the replays just msg me.
The bot was online I just forgot to set the autojoin channel to Op TL-West, it will be up from now on 24/7.
I will make a post about the Restarting of the Op TL-WEST Channel tonight / tomorrow, I think this is a good initiative to bring the community closer together until they (potentially) integrate the servers.
If you'd like Access to the bot to set greet messages, idle messages, kick / ban access to kick / ban trolls like arb, or anything else please feel free to PM me here, on Discord, or on Bnet.
Thanks.
