Brackets - http://challonge.com/tletbw Matches will begin at 18:30 GMT (+00:00) tomorrow and we will go until either the tournament is over or until all of the remaining competitors decide to postpone the rest of the tournament to sunday.
Hello there fellow TL members.
You may or may not have seen our recruitment post. In conjunction with this little drive of ours, I have decided that the next event in the Teamliquid EVE Tournament Series will be a pair of Starcraft tournaments, one SC2, one BW, to celebrate the game that brought us all together.
As this is meant to supplement the recruitment drive and get more people to join up, the prizes for this tournament will be in both EVE currency and EVE game time.
All games will be played on ICCUP
The games will start on Saturday the 12th, times will be released when I get a better idea on the number of competitors. Times will also be flexible, as we have people from many different parts of the world in EVE.
You may enter both the BW and SC2 tournament, but you can only win prizes in one of them. If you are not going to play EVE and do not want your prize, it will go to the next person.
The prizes are: 1st - 2 PLEX (60 days of game time or ~860 million in ISK) 2nd - 1 PLEX (30 days of game time or ~430m in ISK) 3rd - 300 million ISK.
Tournament format: Single elimination Matches will be BO3, Finals will be BO5 (can change depending on the amount of competitors) Loser picks next map Round starting maps will be added depending on the number of competitors
Rules: Standard ICCUP rules Disconnects: - If a player disconnects and the game was in the first 5 minutes, there will be a regame - If the game was longer than 5 minutes, contact a member of The Hatchery, namely Mandini - The Hatch member will decide whether the game will be replayed or a player will be awarded a win - If the same player disconnects twice, that player will automatically take a loss Reporting Matches: - You must report the result of the match after it has been completed - To do so, pm Mandini on TL - Please ensure you select the right maps for each round Pauses: Please notify your opponent if you intend on pausing - A pause should not exceed 5 minutes and can be done only once per game - Pauses for extended periods of time are permitted if any in-game issues arise (lag, excessive BM etc.) - Please contact a member of The Hatchery, namely Mandini, if any such issues arise in-game

You can play, but you wont be able to win anything if you don't play EVE (So you should start playing, not just because of this, but because EVE is awesome too :p)

All new members are going to spawning pool, as you were a previous member, you would have to talk to Kwark about that. But yes, you could win a plex or 2 and come back to EVE.
Signups will close when I wake up on Friday at 12:30 EST, and the match schedule will be released about an hour and a half later after I finish my one class for the day.
Because I want to see kwark beaten in BW, I am placing a bounty on his head. 50m isk to the player who can knock kwark out of the tournament. He has welped enough of my canes

If someone wants to cast or stream these games, by all means go ahead and I will throw the stream link up on the op. This isn't a super serious tournament so I didn't think anyone would really want to cast it, but I would be happy to be wrong.
Ok, because I have no idea how good anyone is, I hit the shuffle seeds button 10 times and we are going with that. Brackets are here. Matches will start at 18:30 GMT (+00:00) tomorrow.
Something went wrong with the registration. When I hit brackets it automatically logged me into the challonge account I made for it but I wasn't registered for the tournament. Please sub me in for one of the walkovers.
I will be hanging out in the sc2 pickup game lobby on ts as well. Games are scheduled to start in 20 minutes, if your opponent is not here, let me know. Sc2 channel is TLET.
The first round will end whenever the players playing broodwar and sc2 finish their sc2 games, at that point anyone who hasnt shown will be dqed and the second round will begin.
Some decent games today. I'm glad I played, bw was such a huge part of my life for so long and I didn't realise how much I missed it. I didn't feel the same love for it today as I used to but it evoked the memories of how it used to make me feel. Such a good game.
Aw sorry i had to leave in a hurry, sent you a pm about it, maldini. I'll be on op teamliquid if that's still possible. Btw, about the prizes, I shall forfeit it to the next in line, as on my current schedule I'm not gonna have time to try the game. However it will be nice to play the placement matches
EPT
Great idea, and good luck everyone!
