Banner thanks to topspinserve!
Welcome to the kickoff and starting event of the very first TL community event of "Novice Starleague!" This is the official thread of the Qualifier Round! So all questions/LR/anything related to QR goes here. Everything else goes here.
NSL #1 Qualifier Round Rules/Date/Format:+ Show Spoiler +Date: January 21, 2010 OR January 22, 2010 (determined by preferred dates from application) Time: Starting at 8:00 PM EST (5:00 PM PST) Where: Iccup channel "op NSL" Total Number of Players: 72 Players Total Number Advancing to Ro36: Exactly 36 PlayersMaps: First Phase (Bo1): Match PointSecond Phase (3 way Round Robin): DestinationThird Phase (optional 3 way FFA - Bo1): NeomedusaFourth Phase (optional #2 vs #3 on top 3 - Bo1): Lost Temple (dead serious) Final Phase (#3 from top 3 vs #1 from bottom 3 - Bo1): Heartbreak RidgeFormat (now the big guns!): In order to create a fair and fun environment from the very start of the league within this bloody qualifiers, my staff team and I was able to formulate an unique system in order to advance into the Round of 36 which is the next round. First off, as this is the first NSL ever, the overall format for NSL is the OSL style where in the Ro36, you end up with "12 seeds" of Ro36 which are fought off in Ro24. Therefore, after a few hours of trial and error, combining equations and using engineering skills, I present to you the answer to all questions regarding the format: In an assumption of 72 players, there will be 12 groups of 6 players. Each group will have 6 players where the first step will be a Bo1 separating the top 3 from the bottom 3. Then the fun starts there... [Note: ONLY 3 PLAYERS WILL ADVANCE FROM EACH GROUP NO MATTER WHAT!!]The top 3 AND the bottom 3 will then go into a 3 way "round robin" battle. Starting from the top 3, the first place or #1 of the top 3 in this second phase will automatically ascend and advance to the Ro36 along with the RO36 SEED. They will obtain this automatically by showing superiority over all the other 5 players in their group by advancing first. The second place or #2 of the top 3 will also automatically advance to the Ro36 but without the Seed given, meaning that they will have to fight off an opponent before the Ro36 Seed player in order to make it to the next step; which is the Group Selections/Ro16. They advance but they will have to play an extra opponent during the Ro36 stage. The third place or the #3 of the top 3 will be dropped down and await for his/her second and final chance to advance out of the group as the bottom 3 that lost in the initial Bo1 match at the start will have a round robin battle as mentioned. The winner of this "bottom round robin" will then advance up to face in the final battle against the third place player of the top 3. So thus, the initial losing player may have a second chance to advance out of this qualifier round alive. Both players will start face will in one final epic Bo1 battle to decide final candidate. Winner of this last battle will advance to the final spot of Ro36 stage. [FAQ: What if the round robin results into a 3 way tie?!?]In an event like this (as we have also put this into our plans), an optional Bo1 special 3-way FFA tie-breaker match will occur that will take place on either the top 3 or the bottom 3 round robin. In the case of the bottom 3, only the winner of these 3 players will advance to the final battle against the #3 player of the top 3. However, in the case of the top 3 players tie, the winner of the FFA will announce itself as #1 of the top 3 and follows the rules above by advancing to the Ro36 with a seed. The 2 remaining players of the top 3 will have a special Bo1 match to settle things of who is #2 and #3 of their small group to respectively part ways as according to the rules above; where #2 advances with no seed, #3 faces off the winner of bottom 3. A brief overview of Qualifier Round format. Image credit goes to Zozma! This concludes the fixed new format of the NSL #1 Qualifier Round which may possibly be used in the future NSL Qualifier Rounds as well. Thursday Group:+ Show Spoiler +Friday Group:+ Show Spoiler + Results:+ Show Spoiler +Look around you and the thread.... Pre-game analysis/recommendation:+ Show Spoiler +QuickStriker's NSL #1 Qualifier Round Recommendation Analysis: On the Qualifier Round map pool, the third and fourth phase is OPTIONAL and only happens if certain conditions occurs.... so basically I'd say everyone should be focusing on practicing on the 2 maps as their TOP priority:
1. Match Point (VERY important since this will determine if you have a big chance shot to be a seed or easier chance to move on Ro36 while losers have to struggle very heavily!!!
2. Destination (Definitely important since you're playing a total of 2 games on this map and it determines your standing of survival on these games as well.)
Then afterwards, I would recommend practicing for Heartbreak Ridge as that is if you fail during the top 3 or succeed in the bottom 3 and it's the final thing that prevents you from advancing...
Neomedusa and Lost Temple isn't really important especially to the winner side but if you're on the loser side.... it's a definite win to make. But I wouldn't spend much time at all on these maps, but rather focus on the 2 maps and maybe HBR as well.
If I have to give a percentage of how a "recommended" practice of maps for the QR, it would be as follows:
Match Point - 40% Destination - 40% HBR - 18% Neomedusa - 1.999% LT - 0.001%
That's my recommendation for everyone! So gl and hope you find your suitable practice and focus on the maps for next week! O-ops' NSL #1 Qualifier Round Recommendation Analysis: 1. CHEESE 2. Zerg - 9/9/9 pool (9pool, 9 gas, 9 ovie) 3. ???? 4. Profit!

That would be cool, as I'm sure most of these games won't be notable or interesting. Also, be sure to e-mail all the reps of your games to the following e-mail address noted on first post. You don't need to e-mail multiple copies or like the same one between the match of 2 players. Just one from either of you is good enough for example. Or in round robin, there should be 3 reps (b/c it's 3 games altogether). Etc.

****UPDATE*****
I had made the final changes to the brackets and posted it up on the nsl news site. It should be updated on here by striker quickly.
Changes:
iG.Zeep will now play under the account iG.SuperZeep
some2else1 will now play under the account NSL-Lucas (gj on making a NSL account mate )
Budmandude, due to personal circumstances, withdrew himself from this NSL. That means PhailSoBaller will be getting an automatic bye to winner's bracket. Gratz.
Tournament proceedings:
If you fail to show up on time, your opponent will be getting a bye. For some of you who can't make it on time, and had no way of resolving the issue (like playing the BO1 today), you will be sent to loser's bracket. If you continued not to show up when 3-man round robins start, I'll declare a forfeit and award the point to your opponent. Remember, I'll allow a half hour grace period.
No racepicking allowed. You play the race you signed up for.
Normal iccup rules apply (http://www.iccup.com/starcraft/sc_ladder_rules.html)
Obsing is NOT allowed. I will release the reppack out later, so no worries. If there is an ob in the game, then i'll just make you re-play that game. Peanut galleries tick me off. If you need a third party to host for you, then that guy must leave when game starts.
Come to op NSL at the appropriate time.
All reps need to be sent to this address: NSLstorage@gmail.com under this format:
Date (Thursday or Friday) Group Number Your number vs your opponent's number Result (1-0, 0-1, tie) With the rep attached.
Also, post your score on here, with the format above. I will be on here, and in the channel once it kicks off. Don't pm me.
If possible, add the people in your groups to your friend list. That way, we can avoid flooding the channel.
That should be all. If there is anything else you guys feel i should add, pm me (do it within today tho).
GL HF
****UPDATE*****
First result is up lol

*****UPDATE****
Does anyone here knows how to fix reps with long filenames? I'm trying to watch sc1pio's rep and it says filename is too long.

It's not that, I enjoy his banner. He never responded to me ever since he gave me that. But that's not the point. The only reason I said that was to hope someone else would make a new one for me since I have no skills whatsoever... But I guess even that is too much to ask... I'm sorry if anyone is offended by this and I'll edit it out again.
And yes, I countlessly asked if anyone can make a new banner on various threads.

Sorry if you didn't mean it that way.
Also, please insert graph, chart, bracket, picture regarding format [would be helpful if anyone who understands this format can make one for the sake of convenience... thanks!]
Good luck finding someone who understands your format. Read it like three times only to come out utterly confused and baffled as to why anyone would use such a complex format that not even players can understand.

I'm pretty sure people do understand the format as barely anyone questioned it on the news/announcement thread. I asked and no one said anything. So I am assuming all 72 players understand and if not, there's always the mods of this tourney to explain on the day of tourney.
As to why I have such a format, it's original, unique, interesting, and can be like "NSL only" thing... I can give countless more reasons but that's enough.

Can't wait till tomorrow. I will pwn some faces.
|
I'd be willing to cast (with the other casters probably if they want) select replays from the qualifiers, since they're replays and I don't need LAN lat I can probably have a good quality stream.
|
That be nice Pokebunny, but note that this is only the beginning stages of the NSL and well.... the whole game starts at least in the group selections or Ro16.... but I don't mind if people stream it, all more so the better! ^_^
|
Yeah, that's why I said select replays - if people have an interesting/good game, maybe you could put a notice in the OP that they can PM the replay to me? That would be cool, as I'm sure most of these games won't be notable or interesting.

On the contrary, novice play makes for great humor, and more importantly, creativity =].
Just throwing it out there, the format makes sense. But an FFA tiebreaker? Really? O_o.

Well it's up to you. All groups regardless on which day all start at the same time at 8 PM EST or 5 PM PST or w/e the time is at. We will wait like 15-30 minutes for people to show up and if they down.... it'll be an automatic WO/byes..... so if you can make it at the very most, 8:20-30, then you will still have a chance... otherwise.... gg no re

Hmm... well, that's unfortunate... in that case, you have 2 options (the times were listed like 3 weeks ago so everyone should have gotten a heads up of the time for QR):
1. Negotiate with the fellow players of your group to either a. start later time for you, b. make some adjustments to suit your needs, c. etc.
or
2. Get a Bye/WO on the first round, and hope you would make it in time to be at the bottom 3 round robin matchup. But in this case, you must perform extremely well to get #1 of that in order to have a last shot chance of advancing by taking down the #3 of top 3 as shown in the format and the image.
or
3. Bye/WO the entire QR... drop out, and hopefully you would be able to join us for the next NSL in the future.
Hope this helps..

You should just be able to go into your replays folder in your starcraft folder and manual change it like any other regular file. (I think?)
edit: could you explain your result's chart it's rather confusing at first glance.

is it possible still to sign up for this league , i just saw it and loved the idea (: the perfect place for me !

Ya, fixing a replay with too long of a file name is as simple as renaming it.

|
When and in which channel do we meet? Oic. Thanks, I guess I'll find out more when I get there.
|
@ Cpt.Beefy, This isn't held by TL, but by It's users so if your'e up for running a league made for europeans I'd definitely take part.
Those who run it do it all after their time, there's nothing wrong with that. But perhaps the qualifiers could be separate for the next league. Or better, make the groups, give it a deadline, then the players must play the games until then and set their own times and submit the results.
I can understand that Europeans are dissapointed with the time, but there's nothing we can do about it now. But that's something to consider for the next one, hopefully the games could be played 2-4 hours earlier next time. At least then it wouldn't be a problem for the europeans.
Also I must mention that I must leave a walk Over because of the time of the games. I've got an essay that I wasn't aware of when I signed up. I'll inform my opponent, hopefully I can take part in the next league.
Thanks for running this, good luck with everything!
|
It doesn't suck. he's organizing it, and this is easiest for him. No one is stopping you from making a league with a different time.
|
I understand the concern and problems regarding times of this league. I will first apologize for the set time I have given a month advance, as it seems when I gave out when the estimated time and date would be, I didn't expect people to realize that they won't realize I said "5 PM PST, 8 PM EST" a month ago. But I also didn't consider the factor of the possible Europeans playing in the league and that it would be 3 AM so that was definitely my fault.
It's unfortunate but the time has already been set for this round and depending on the situation, I may change the time of the future rounds of NSL #1 to be either one hour ahead or behind of the current time. However, on the future NSLs to come, I will make a fixed group made for just for Europeans so it would be easier for you guys to follow during QR round and perhaps the times for the future round would be set where everyone would be happy. I only simply pointed out 5 PM PST/8PM EST because it was the most convenient for me and most of the participants for they are mostly living in NA. But I will make adjustments in the future. Thank you.

torm3ntin and I have the two hardest NSL groups
|
uhh.... I didn't put the groups in order..? :D
|
Personally I will be able to wake up for my games, but I bet 95% of Europeans here won't. Anyway, I'd recommend you posting European (CET) and Korean times (KST) too, so there will be less misunderstandings :}.

seriously i'm a D- put into a group with everyone else being D+ lol
i am the underdog of the tournament

Yes, the only thing stopping you from watching them was the filename, so therefore, shortening the filename fixes it.

I didn't remember anyone having any trouble when striker posted up the time at least a week ago.
Both striker and i have school/life commitments, and we are trying to make do the best we can with the time we have. Yes, i do realize it sucks for Europeans, but, given that all the rounds start at the same time, are you saying that we should stay up really late, or start this thing really early, and, in the process, screwing up the people from the American continent?
Or, we can split this into a European brackets and American brackets, and then have separate European and American groups in ro36 and then do that still in ro16, just to avoid time trouble.
Oh wait, then that would be 2 tourneys with the winners of each playing the other in the final now would it?

Both striker and i have school/life commitments, and we are trying to make do the best we can with the time we have. Yes, i do realize it sucks for Europeans, but, given that all the rounds start at the same time, are you saying that we should stay up really late, or start this thing really early, and, in the process, screwing up the people from the American continent? Or, we can split this into a European brackets and American brackets, and then have separate European and American groups in ro36 and then do that still in ro16, just to avoid time trouble. Oh wait, then that would be 2 tourneys with the winners of each playing the other in the final now would it? How about next time making it at Saturday at 12:00-13:00 PST which will be 21:00 - 22:00 CET. Fits for everyone :}.

Well, there's not many (if any) koreans playing at this tournament and Australians could play their games individually, independently from time :}.

he probably reached it after the 1 month countdown started :}. Also, he doesn't look like a C- from his record, 63-63 on 1 map (Python), which isn't even in the map pool. He's another D/D+ skill level holder who just massed games a bit and got C- :}.

Stupid to claim that if you have 50% win it's "mass gaming". Whether or not you mass game, if you can get a rank and hold it within reason, it's your rank.

Hey guys I am moving into a new place this Friday (Thursday for Americans/Europeans) and will be driving and unpacking all day. I might have internet by Saturday (your Friday) and if I do I can play then but just as a precaution if my opponent can arrange with me to play it sooner it would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Good job everyone!! I'm glad and happy for everyone who was able to show up and the problems were less as contrast to the previous night in regards to massive fallout of lack of players. I'd have to say today was more active than yesterdays. Congrats and I will post results soon! As well as the format for Ro36 on the official news thread soon!

Although I'll make a hugeeeeeeeeeee post (and a new thread) for Ro36 format and who got in (though you should know by now), it's fairly simple in terms of the format, just imagine this:
If you got #2 or #3, you have to play a Bo3 with another #2 or #3
Then if you win, you have to face an ANOTHER Bo3 with #1 who has seed so he only play Bo3 onces of who the winner is.
That my friends is how OSL Ro36 style works.
In regards to map-pool: It's 3 of the map posted in the official map pool, where destination is most likely is going to be one of the 3. I'll make a post soon in the NSL news thread.

And Proom, for the very last time, you never showed up at all, only playing one game. If you did had the tendency to show up even an hour after, you would have gotten to be #3 of your group, but you never did so I just had a match of 2 other ppl to determine that #3.
