You can upload longer videos by authorizing your account or something. I think they ask you to enter a phone number, then you enter the code they give you and you can upload longer videos. | ||

People need to be patient though because updating the post, reassigning players, fixing the schedule etc. is actually quite time consuming. Thank you for the concern. Hope you know, you're very appreciated! Thanks for your selfless hard work, you're injecting hype and the determination to improve into all of us D rankers | ||

First, you should've made every team appoint some sort of leader or representative for their team. Lineups should be sent to the organizer of the tournament so people can know what matchup they're practicing for and it also helps makes things a little more organized. The times the games are played should be more flexible. 8am PST is seriously such a horrible time for people living in PST. So you could have the representatives of each team set up a better time where more people from each team will show up. The teams should've been organized by timezone so the members of each team could be online at the same time more often. | ||

I wanted to use the first week as a kind of test week to see how things would flow and a number of things stood out to me. 1) I need better communication lines with the team representatives. If you have been communicating with me for your team I'm going to send you a PM to get skype/IM info from you. 2) Holgerius suggested this before I got a chance to make this post but arranged schedules of players from each team would make things go much more smoothly and give people a matchup to focus practicing on. 3) If these changes are to go into effect properly that means that the players have to be active participants. Sorry for all the upheaval. | ||

I took out the /dnd and no obs rules, it is just too hard for me to enforce and causing problems, so please use your head when you include an obs in the game. I also went back to a bo5. I really wanted to do a bo7 so more people could play but it doesn't look realistic for every team to get 6 players to show up to play every time.

If these changes are to go into effect properly that means that the players have to be active participants. Sorry for all the upheaval. 1) Send me your skype via PM. 2) Our team is fine for organization, everyone's in a skype call together + friend listed on iCCup, we wont need any league support for practice times and what not. 3) 17CET is fine, I don't see how it would need to be changed, when I was on the west coast I woke up at 9am for CL and what not, so I don't see how its an issue especially given its the minority. Thanks for Obs!! :D | ||

Thanks for Obs!! :D It would be nice if we could make it 1-2 hours earlier, and make it so we can play all the games concurrently. Then i can just play my game at 2am and sleep  Last time I had to wait till 4:30am to play my game, coz of the streamer. Next time just stream the replays imo lol.EDIT: Oh perhaps teams should declare which players are playing what position in advance??? Also for hype reasons, maybe have the current week showing in the OP (not in a spoiler). | ||

Also for hype reasons, maybe have the current week showing in the OP (not in a spoiler). Yeah.. the timing isn't good. Its never going to be good (because the earth is round ). 8am here in PST is pretty bad. 1-2 hours earlier would really screw us harder. I would like 1-2 hours later if anything. But then this screws you over  We need a better system fosure. I see no urgent reason for all games to be played concurrently or at once or all at one time. We are not good players... We just all love the game and want to get better. Sure its entertaining to have all 80 players online at once and all games played together, but this isn't a viable option for many. I'd rather have some awesome games in a way that it could help us all improve - we need to know exactly when our game is going to be played and we need to have enough time to practice and prepare for it and play at a reasonable hour (I played my game 8am). Anyways, heres a solution that I think might work. CobaltBlu obviously can't micromanage every set. It has to fall on the teams to do so. I mentioned this in a previous post. Once each team rep has been picked - bold the rep's name on the roster so other players on other teams know who to contact. The league starts Sat 8am PST - and ends Sunday 12pm PST (Games are due by this time - if not, there will be severe consequences ). So the first three sets are decided ahead of time and each player can contact their opponent and play them when both are free (obviously its preferable to have the majority of games played at the same time, but I'd rather sacrifice that and have more and better games played over the weekend). Then the team leader assigns the last two sets if needed. Remaining games are then played whenever first possible. All games are then reported by the end of the weekend - I know this makes casting really hard, but if everyone is in the loop on when each game is going to be played it could work out great! Also if each team stays organized and all players know when they should play we could easily keep the bo7 format.Could we set up a google doc or something that can be shared and edited easily to keep track of whos playing who? Or is there already another website set up that allows for easy teamleague set organization (kind of like z33k for sc2.. I feel like a thread isn't good enough to organizing when each game is going to be played and on what order and map.. Its great for results and discussions) Also, people HAVE to be active for this to work. People have to stick to their times and get on when they promise. Other wise ti wont work. EDIT: Created a google doc to help organize things: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ar4IxUNA-0mJdDY3eTROVFluOE1vX0JUN0tGRXVfQWc Will finish editing it later if you all wanna use it.. Basic idea - Each team mu is given and the map is shown. For each match it shows the Time Scheduled to play. This time can be changed before hand if both players agree.. Its there to give a general idea of when you should get online and play. If Australasian want it earlier and the opponent agrees well and good! We just need some definite way to keep track of when each game should be played. Also I set it so anyone can edit so please don't fuck it up Edit 2: only problem with this is races dont show... solutions: look that up on the thread or add race to each player's name ie. sgs.kal_ra (p) | ||

I've collected almost all the team reps and will be highlighting them in the post later and communicating with them. They will basically be responsible for giving me the lineup each week. | ||
