Ok altered. The maps are staying the way they are now. I was trying to use different maps earlier because I wanted to encourage unusual play, but I realize that if people don't know the map they might just auto cheese. So yeah, I know I used Desti and other maps, but those are the maps that I like and the second day is a Bo3 so you can possibly make it to where one map won't be the downfall of you

The cast is from replays, so once I get the matches set, you can play your opponent whenever it is convenient.

Calling it now.
snipin_panda wins the whole thing, probably over lumire or fold.

Ok, I'm looking at a format like this:
3rd: Pool play to determine the Ro16 (Not casted) 4th: Ro16 (Bo3's Live) 5th: Ro8 (Bo3's Live) 11th: Ro4(Bo3's Live) 12th Finals (Bo5 Live)

I've talked this over with some of the other tourney refs and admins and Metal[x] is a known B- player. It's sad that he cannot participate, but out of fairness, it has to be this way. Same with Jumperer... His gosuness can carry over to other races and could possibly not be fair to others participating. Hopefully after the C ranks open, we can get a B ranks one and have some amazing games there :D

I will be watching!!! Epic.

How can we know you didn't just throw those 4 games in order to make it seem like you aren't a chogosu? I demand either 100 games minimum or synopsis from a Korean progamer.

You are correct. This tournament is for players that have a Max in the C ranks. I'm willing to make certain exceptions for people who have been removed for quite a while. Maybe you guys should test him and play him to prove to me that he's too gosu for this tournament To make it through group stages will be hard in itself. Also, I'm going to make the groups and seedings as fair as possible. So you might not ever have to play against him
|
Yes that seems fair. 100% certain i cannot hit B- as of right now, not too sure i can get C+ even
but some trial matches would be nice i think

Having fun and getting better! :D These players could be next top foreigners with some practice. So yeah, I gave a pretty reasonable time to play and practice and it's not a one and done kind of tournament! Group stages you play 3 games and brackets are all Bo3's! So you always have chances hopefully and also makes for more interesting playing and strategies.

Two things:
EDIT #1: Nevermind I understand now. It's only if both are race pickers.
#2 The reason C tournament will be cool is because should be a lot of strategy involved. If someone who use to be B rank 1v1 practices a little they should be able to get their mechanics back fairly easily. B mechanics in a C tourney....argh :D

#1 yeah. If a person has a race like terran and random, it means that they play TvP and TvZ but play RvT. If all races are listed, then that person race picks every matchup So yeah, correct.
#2 We've had this happen in the D ranks teamleague where a person was C- a couple years ago and went along with sc2 and came back recently. He understands the game more maybe, but he has lost to the D ranks as well. People who are C+ are one rank away from B-. I know it's huge to get to B-, but it's not astronomically a huge difference in mechanics. This should only make you strive harder to play better! At the end of the day, it's about fun. With the format of the tournament, one loss to someone won't take you out of the tournament, so I have chosen to allow BlueEyes to play because of his recent comeback.

Let's me just clarify. I like to play Random sometimes but sometimes I like to race pick. If I want to I can go Random everygame right? But if I choose to pick my race one game I am still allowed to do that right? (as long as I specificy im choosing prior to joining game).
I am only clarifying because it seems theres a lot of rules that are biased against random players. So I want to make sure that I can pick random OR race pick(as long as I specificy which race prior to joining game).
This is correct right?

This is correct right? This seems like it's sorta greedy I guess I'll put random next to your name also just so no one is thrown off You have to declare before the game starts what race you are playing (including random).

Then again, you aren't really a Random player if you are constantly picking different races So you should actually just tell me how you want to enter the tournament. Random? Or Race Picker?

Kinda irritates me when people do this. Especially if the ones understating are truly blue ranks. It's not like there is a prize or any incentive other than smashing random yellow ranks.

1004 are you talking about sniping me? if so why? lol
Can we clarify the rules then? Because I'd really like to be able to choose random or sometimes race pick.
For example if I am going up against someone who I think is higher then C+ rank I'd probably play random to try to get an advantage.
Can you just list all races and random and I will say what I am choosing BEFORE I even join the game?

May I ask that the tournament staff PLEASE get rid of Tau Cross / Outsider from the map pool, because those maps are just... yuck.
For a flat map, I think Fighting Spirit is a lot more balanced than Tau Cross, and for a three-player map, I dunno, maybe Neo Aztec?

I work during the evenings mon-fri so I can't play any games after 4:30pm during the weekdays but I'm free sat & sun
Also, I think the tourney organizers should go through the names and make sure no one is hiding their real rank or hiding that they were b- before or something

Also, we are doing background checks on people and have made only one exception for someone who is a few years removed.

Shimy, to be fair can we let jumper play in the tourney ? He said he's only D+/C-/C max on his offrace.
It looks like the guy you made an expection for use to be B, hes now 19-4 C- in under 24 hours and also beat someone who was B+ last season.
I don't think it's fair to ban jumper. I am not complaining at all just thinking logically it's not fair for people like jumper.

I was gonna let this happen, but then someone else told me not to D: I plan on hosting a B tourney after this though so they can all play in it! I understand where you are coming from though. I think the argument was made that his mechanics and game knowledge would be enough for him to roll this tournament. He's so Gosu!!! I've PM'd him and I think he agrees.

**********THE MAPS BEING USED FOR POOL PLAY ARE: Jade, Sniper Ridge, Tau Cross, and Destination.************
Practice those maps :D

I don't think it's fair to ban jumper. I am not complaining at all just thinking logically it's not fair for people like jumper. I beat a former A- 2-0, B 3-2, B- 3-0... And I am ~33% WR D+ at the moment. Who you beat doesn't really determine anything sometimes.

*** DUE TO THE COMMENTS BEING MADE ABOUT BLUEEYES(PuliMuli)HE HAS POLITELY RESIGNED FROM THE TOURNAMENT*** Stop bringing it up! TT It's about your playing and that should be the only thing you care about. Please quit making statements like things aren't fair.

Good choice for pool play, i would've prefered neo aztec to tau cross but others seem nice. sounds fun, cant wait.

I know you are C  Plus like I said, it's max rank of all time kinda thing  waaait so I need to have gotten C on the account i show up with? No. As long as your max rank falls between C- and C+ your good to go. Awlright, that's pretty neat so I dont have to ladder all the way to C again, that'd be a nuisance, lol. Well we'll see you at the tourny start then 
Holy shit the guy who made the mappool is a fucking saint triathlong and outsider? You gotta decide more mappools if nothing else cus that sure is awesome

Hey guys! I know we still have a couple weeks before signups close, but for the tournament to work the way I originally planned, we need 32 people! As of right now, we have 24! So be sure to tell all of your C ranks friends and bring on the fun! Also don't forget to practice all of the Pool play maps listed above! Once I have pools sorted out, I will determine the maps you play against your opponents from those 4 maps. So practice up! :D

Can I sign up for this for fun even though I can only play the group stages? If by some wizardry I manage to qualify I would forfeit my spot to the guy who placed next in group.

Favorite to win the tourny?....I seriously doubt that seeing as I've been pretty inactive the past 2-3 months.

Oh aw, this looks like it'd be a lot of fun. Wish this was several months back when I was still playing semi-regularly lol

Wait, I am in the "2nd" group of death? Why's that? I've played dry and doubt it's because of me or him... Interesting though :3 And Kiante trying to play timid on us, tsk tsk
On a more related note, can we please make a rule so that random players have to declare their race at the start of the game? I know there is the racepicker rule but I playing vs a random race is just plain not a particularily fun experience and forces you to certain builds. Especialyl for a racepicker like me who plays everydamn matchup except for mirrors, it would basically force me into matchups I never really practiced..

I'd just like to say I can't make it Friday at 7PM, so could the people I play please schedule this at a different time? I work at that time on fridays sadly =/

Alright, well it's time for Group F to do the impossible and have everyone get 0-3'd.

In pressure situations, Wala just underperforms all the time. =___=x It's frustrating when we try to play seriously.
But I agree, Wala is da good player.

Hmm, I didn't see it before, but try ignoring the bottom line of the 2 and the tail end of the S. So basically the top curvy parts of both characters.

Okay everyone, your predictions of fold/puppykiller/whoever else are wrong, let me show you why (SunCow taught me):
Snipinpanda Seems decent strong pjyhwaiting I'm winning
ni.lumire ZvP player so imba strong sGs.Pie Don't know him
S2Glow Name is Korean-sounding, probably strong -mantoss- Don't know him , Probe Strong macro poor decision making, we're even lonelyprobe-- That's me CobaltBlu Don't know him Puppykiller I'm winning
, dsyxelic Don't know him
, , Iplaythings Don't know him Cocky Don't know him
Ninazerg Don't know him/her, Z>P tho
Noise[AoV] I'm winning
, Thundersapien Don't know him
Johny23 Don't know him, but R player cheese strong
[SCB]Terranos Sound scary, strong
Drywater Saw replay, weak Kiante I'm winning, dodge
Zergneedsfood Cheeser, therefore strong
vTv.Mercurial Sound scary, strong sGs.Yaqoob Sound strong JustoLamas Don't know him
oxyacety Don't know him SL]..AleC- Heard strong, need proof
SakuraKyouko Zerg, must be cheese strong Scary[t] Terran named 'Scary', prob weak
xxpack09 Don't know him
Kororo I'm winning
[KDV]Mewka Don't u play SSBM? Anyone who I don't know much be not strong, therefore you see I am strong against many player here listed, I have strong chance to win ^^; Support me thnx fans.
Btw can ne1 buy me pack of cigarette? Newport pls.

When have I ever cheesed? LOL
Maybe I cheese because I'm Terran lol

who is vTv.Mercurial? 18-1 C-, currently 5-0 1v1 and is in vTv clan. Sorry if I missed something just curious

iccup.supreme is 0-0-0 all seasons. What's his C-/C/C+ rank name is my question.

S2 , minus the bottom S curvy and bottom line for the 2. form a heart haha.. snipin is correct ^_^!

I don't think Scan would smurf into this And I don't think Scan would have a loss on his record haha

Newport pls.
Like.
Here's mine:
Snipinpanda He seems about average, but his mid/late game macro versus Zerg gives me confidence. m&m are hard to macro, so yeah. pjyhwaiting Probably the best Protoss in the tour
ni.lumire He talked smack about me in Fold's stream chat, so grr. One the better players in this tour, but I think he could get knocked out by a strong Terran sGs.Pie When I smurfed into sGs, I played Pie a few times, and I feel pretty confident against him.
S2Glow Very dangerous, do not want to play against -mantoss- I have to play him in the first round on Destination, which I'm kind of leary about. , Probe I would probably need to go into the late late late game to beat Probe lonelyprobe-- I don't know much about you CobaltBlu He is my very first match on Jade, which is a good map for me. Because of my time in sGs, I feel very confident about this match Puppykiller Another innocent victim of Eywa's retarded proxies, but his mid-game looks really strong, so I give him the edge over me
, dsyxelic I've heard he was good, but I also heard he was out of practice? I dunno - I've been playing a lot of games on Tau Cross so I hope that pays off.
, , Iplaythings I know nothing about him. Cocky I heard he was a smurf who is really good, so I half-expect him to emerge from the group of death
Ninazerg Terrible
Noise[AoV] Reputed to be the strongest in the tour BUT, I only played him once on the ladder and I won, so that fact combined with his apparent struggles with ZvT, I think I might be able to pull a surprise win.
, Thundersapien I know nothing.
Johny23 Never saw him ever.
[SCB]Terranos I'm not really worried about any Terran except for Puppykiller and Noise
Drywater I win 100% Kiante Kiante will pulverize me, and then throw my ashes into a volcano.
Zergneedsfood I heard he likes to cheese, so it really just depends on the map. I think I can take him if I don't completely choke.
vTv.Mercurial I should be able to beat him sGs.Yaqoob The sGs tag suggests to me that he's not that good JustoLamas I think I recall him beating me in a ladder game...
oxyacety Don't know him SL]..AleC- Did I say I was only afraid of Puppykiller and Noise. AleC- haunts my darkest nightmares.
SakuraKyouko Dunno him. Scary[t] Not worried at all
xxpack09 Sorry, xxpack09, but I'm not worried about playing you
Kororo guaranteed loss, I hope someone knocks him out of the tour
[KDV]Mewka I fear any Protoss from the Commonwealth of Independent States

Gogogogogogogogogo Zergs.
Kororo, Mercurial, Ninazerg, and lumire have my support! (Pure zergs ftw).
I love the dates now. I'll definitely be watching as much as possible. Somebody should make a bracket challenge on here once the groups are made (or at least the the sweet sixteen). I'd gladly do it.

ZVZ is my favorite matchup. Such a rush. So hard to find on ICCup though.
12 Pool is the optimal build IMO.
Also, it would be sosososososososososo awesome if somebody could cast group F. I could do it, but my latency's a little bad for streaming..

Honestly the only people I'm watching for are you noise and cocky. If your rusty I might be able to squeeze you ;p if noise struggles tvt like marine[aov] did then I think I got it and cocky is gonna be a straight loss lol.

Now, allow me to explain how they work: Each player in the pool will play the map and opponent listed in their pool. That means they play a total of 3 games. After you have played your 3 games, you send the replays in a file to the email: sGs.Shimy@gmail This is required of everyone. Now, you may be saying to yourself, "Man the time sucks for this. Having to play at 7PM EST!" I realize this and am allowing pool play games to be played from Jan 29th to Feb 3rd. This means you have 6 days to find the opponents you are supposed to play and play them on the maps specified below. If it has been a few days and you haven't gotten in touch or been able to play the person you are supposed to play, PM me on TL and let me know. Not playing pool play will result in DQ. Also, I realize some players are going to have to play the same map twice in Pool Play. This was on purpose so don't make mention of it.
I'm not sure if you read that or not.
But feel free to catch me if I'm streaming or on iccup(though may be afk). I'll usually be on from 7:00 pm EST to like 2-4 AM EST

Yeah, like Panda posted above, Pool play games can be played anytime from the 29th to the 3rd! I'll still be there on Friday though for those of you who haven't played their Pool Play games. And this goes to everybody: Do not send me an email with 1 or 2 games. I want all 3 games of your Pool! Thank you :D

I honestly don't understand people complaining about having to prepare for two different races. If he was a random player they'd have to prepare for three different races. What is wrong with people... people should be able to play whatever race or match up they want.
EDIT: Can we change tourney rules so all players must play terran only? I don't feel like preparing for all three races.

It's because certain people like making map and race specific builds and if they are preparing to play you as Terran on Destination and you just decide to play a different race, then why would they have spent so much time working on that build to snipe you? The whole reason why I announced the Pools and maps and stuff is so people can actually practice specific things to show good games. I thought it was a good idea.

EDIT: Can we change tourney rules so all players must play terran only? I don't feel like preparing for all three races. racepicking is not the same as randoming. If there is a random player vs a terran then both players have to do equal amount of work preparing for 3 possible matchups. If its a terran player vs someone who can pick from 2 different races then the terran has to prepare for 2 different possible matchups but then racepicker only has to practice one. The problem isn't the amount of preparation if both players have to prepare the same amount. It becomes a problem when one player has to prepare more than the other player.

Yes, but I asked in in this thread if you look back a few pages if I could pick a certain race vs some players as long as I announced it before entering the game.
Now this has changed and isn't allowed?

So if I say what match ups I am playing does that mean that I cannot ever random? Phrased differently if I random that means I can never choose a race if I may need to vs a certain player?

If someone can play all three races that's a BONUS for them. Forcing someone to pick match ups takes all that away. You guys must be democrats :D LOL, I'm gonna have to send you the same PM I sent Iplaythings. You can race pick 3 matchups, but you can't just decide the day of! That's stupid LOL Just declare your 3 races or play random. I put you down as random because I thought you were going to play random. If you aren't, tell me your vP,vZ, and vT

So if I tell you PvP and ZvZ and the other people play ZvP and PvZ(some in this tourney do) you're then going to do what?
Make me play their match up or make them play mine?
EDIT: Just making sure I understand the rules before I tell you. Because I thought in ISL there was a race picker who picked three different races in a bo5 vs Ace no?

I didn't realize until it was mentioned just now, but I should mention this so that it's fair to my pool mates. I'll always play as terran, except I ZvT instead of TvT. Good luck everyone.

what to do in this situation? Then you both deserve to ZvZ. Or go into the game, both pick Z, first person to chicken out chooses some other race. The scenario you describe has no fair solution, so deal with it.

what to do in this situation? One of the other admins suggested that we have like a 3...2...1... shout your race thing. But yeah, they can each just PM their choice of race, or talk among themselves and come up with a solution

I put you down as ZvP, ZvT, and PvZ assuming you didn't want to mirror. Please make something final before the 29th lol I'm kind of tired with everyone just switching or playing different races depending on your mood or whatnot. Just pick a race and practice it. That's what everyone else is doing TT
EDIT: If you are going to play ZvZ, then you should have to play it for the rest of the tourney.

Group A, are you guys okay with just all meeting up on this Saturday 28th January 8PM EST (Sunday 10KST) and playing games then? Gives us roughly 2 hours to finish games before proleague..I think that should be enough?

The only confusion is coming from people who can't play multiple races or can only play one match up. How is it my fault you can only play one match up? I have to declare my race because my opponent needs a week to prepare special snipe builds for me? Thanks for the compliment but I am really not a Flash level player.
ISL2 didn't have this problem they allowed you to pick whatever race you wanted as long as it was chosen prior to the game starting.
Hence if you can play multiple match ups congrats thats your advantage. Not " OMG ADMIN I CANT PLAY VS MULTIPLE RACES PLEASE MAKE THEM ANNOUNCE ONE WEEK AHEAD!" ....Why would we need to change ISL2 tourney rules? How is their crying enough to over turn previous amateur BW tourney rules but my crying doesn't matter?
|
Iccup 1v1 tournies youre allowed to choose whatever race you want EVERY GAME as long as you say before game starts.
Same with ISL1 and ISL2.
Were playing on iccup and this isnt a proleague tourney so if their crying is special enough to over turn the rules why isn't my crying enough to let typical rules stay in place?

Peeps from group H
What you say we get the playing done on saturday afternoon / evening? I don't really have time this friday and while finding time in the week days would be doable it'd complicate it cus I'm kinda scheduled up, haven't had much practice either.
In any way, add Iplaythings and spamm me whenever :p

How about a different question, why do tourney admins have to deal with anyone crying when the rules are very simple? You signed up for the tournament as is.

EDIT: If you are going to play ZvZ, then you should have to play it for the rest of the tourney. im a pvter, not zvter ok if thats the rules ill select zvz. i feel like there are more people who are more better at zvp than zvz than i am at pvz over zvz. so i am zvz zvp pvt Ok thanks :D

I hope they make Jade the motw next week cause I can't get games on it. I'm going to be forced to play on fish server to get practice.

Ok, I pm'ed you my races I am playing Shimy.
Also in response to 1004 and everyone else who made a smart comment:
#1 It's the hypocrisy that bothers me. People trying to get rules "Changed" (because YES, originally I was allowed to play the races I wanted) under the guise of "FAIRNESS" when in reality it's unfair to the people who can play multiple races.
#2 To reiterate my point to the person who said "if I don't like the rules" the initial rules WERE allowing me to play the way I wanted to. What don't you understand? Other people crying is what changed them. So stop saying I shouldn't of signed up if I didn't like the rules. It's really a pathetic smart ass comment on your part and not only do I not appreciate it but it also makes no sense.
EDIT: Second point is toward Jealous. Seriously what don't you understand? I WAS allowed to initially play the races I wanted. It's after everyone bitching that I wasn't. How can you be stupid? If you're going to try to be a little smart ass why don't you actually make some sense.
|
Jealous, you have the comprehension level of a peanut. Why would you want to make smart ass comments toward me?
#1 I am not the one that can't play vs multiple races #2 I am not the one who asked anyone to change any rules that aren't already typical (IE: ICCUP TOURNAMENTS, ISL1, ISL2) #3 All I want to be able to do is pick which race I want vs which players. It's such a simple thing that the previous mention tournaments allow that I am being denied. #4 Why can't you make a smart ass comment towards the people who can't play vs multiple races and need a week for their small mind to prepare? Or maybe you're one of the simpletons who can't do it?

So we're pathetic for telling you to deal with it, whereas you are clearly not... Despite the fact that you have been crying about this in every post like a kid who dropped his ice cream? Instead of whining about it you could have just PM'd Shimy for clarification. But no, you chose to become a public martyr. Sorry that no one sympathized with your selfish "I want to pick my race right before the game sux2beu" attitude. It's clear that Shimy did not understand your intentions, and thought you would be playing random, as you said previously(it is even listed in the OP as such, you know, that post that people refer to know what race to practice against?).
Regardless of all this, I find it highly hypocritical that you blame other people for crying and changing the rules, then try to do the exact same thing. After all this, should I feel offended by anything you've said? Haha.xD
In other words, stop whining and manner up, regardless of whether you think you have/actually have a valid point. I don't even care what your point is, your behavior is childish at best. You keep referring to typical tournament rules, then go fucking play those tournaments. This is Shimy's tournament. What the hell does he care what those ICCup rules are? Is this an ICCup event? No. Lol and you call me the moron.

You don't even get the fundamental concept of my point.... I didn't come here and asked ANYONE to do ANYTHING.
I want to use a function that not only the game allows, but ISL/ISL2 and iccup tournaments allow. Why should I not be able to play the races I want vs the players I want. Can you please answer this?
I am not trying to RESTRICT anyone. Thats the DIFFERENCE. Theyre trying to RESTRICT me. Oh my god LOL how hard is that to comprehend?
For example NB.lumir is apparently very good ZvP. vs him I would of like to chosen T or Z even though I'd prefer to play P vs other players. It's called strategy and since I can play all three races that's my BENEFIT.

Seriously, what ticked you off so bad? Such ridiculous bad manner in response to something that wasn't even offensive, lol.

So you stripped away my BENEFIT. So other people can have one week to prepare builds and know their opponents race.
Wow Yes, Sir!! That's some wonderful logic you have telling me to "just deal with it". I didn't try to RESTRICT anyone. You're the ones who "cant deal with it" because you need an Admin to give you one week prep time.

Wow... So you don't see the impact of choosing your race before the match, based on who you face? I don't know if you've noticed, but that would affect what the other player prepares for. Do you mean to say that as soon as you learn who you will be facing, you will PM them the race you will use against them? If so, that still gives the opponents an unfair disadvantage because you know what race they will be playing as soon as results are posted, whereas they find out your race... Well... Whenever the fuck you feel like telling them? Don't be ridiculous. Just because ISL/ISL2/johny23's shitty tournament/whatever did things differently, doesn't mean you should come in here and cry because things are different. Deal with it.

Did you read what I said? I don't even care about you or what race you play. I was referring to the people who whined before you, the same people you complained about. Now, you made it personal, and you also tried to set up a pity party for yourself as well, so you're no better than the aforementioned people in my eyes. I don't need anything, that's the point. I haven't made any requests here. You have. How you can say "I'm not asking anyone to do anything," is beyond me, considering that's all you've done for the past few pages, referring to how rules are in this or that tournament as back-up and scapegoating whiners for the logical decisions made by the administrator. Tough luck, sorry that you can't racepick your way through this tournament and will have to *gasp* actually play a definite match-up vs each race, ensuring equality for all.

You're entire statement is the same thing as saying. I don't care if you know how to play all three races. We're not going to allow you to get the full benefit of that sorry.
If anyone would of been man enough to say that there wouldn't be a problem. The issue is when it comes under the guise of fairness and how "its not fair to people who only play one race".

zzz it doesn't matter if you can play all 3 races, pick your best 3 mu for mu and use them, rules are rules. tournament director decides is the end of the story.
|
So now someone will go watch 100 pro replays and copy builds(literally down to the last SCV). This is more quality and entertaining then people making up builds on the fly?
|
1004, I already said I pm'ed the admin by three match ups. My comments are directed to the smart asses(yourself included).
So if you no longer want to hear me speak on the subject I suggest stop you're lame comments towards me and I won't feel the need to post any further rebuttals

The issue is when it comes under the guise of fairness and how "its not fair to people who only play one race". Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. I don't care. You can play random if you want, who is stopping you? Then you can show us just how manly you are (a laughable standard, by the way). The reason it's unfair is not because we won't know what race we're playing, which would be the case in random, it's because you want to race-pick against certain players and make this fact known at a later time than you yourself know their race. This is clearly a disadvantage to your opponents.
By the way, skill is not the addition of your 3 race abilities combined, it's your ability regardless of what race you choose. The fact that you think you are somehow better than other people who are of approximately the same skill level as you, or more 'manly' or whatever you want to use to describe it, is pretentiously hilarious.
Manner up.

Tough luck, sorry that you can't racepick your way through this tournament and will have to *gasp* actually play a definite match-up vs each race, ensuring equality for all.
Once again I ALREADY PM'ED MY RACES TO THE TOURNEY DIRECTOR. That part is over with. My comments are towards your smart ass comments and lack of comprehension of how restricting someone is totally different then me asking to please not be restricted. Also people will go watch 100 pro replays and copy builds down the the last probe/scv and you wan't me to believe that's more of a quality game then players making up their own builds and *gasp* using their own brain?

Oh and you also think that you can come up with better builds than progamers, or that anything you do come up with hasn't already been done in the past? Okay.

This is Shimy's tourney. You follow his rules, simple. I do not understand what is so hard about that.

The explanation to the people asking for set match ups in this STRATEGY game(therefore limiting the strategy I might add) was under the guise of fairness.
It had nothing to do with fairness. It's what they wanted, it's now less fair to the majority of race pickers. OK so it's the rules. There's more people who play a single race then not so fair enough.
I don't mind following the rules. I mind the people that were ok with pretending why the rules were set.
It's really that simple.

Ok, I'd now like to ask you whats so hard to understand. Considering I've already stated multiple that I've already followed the rules and sent my three match ups to the tourney director. I am following the rules.
Have you ever heard of principal? Yes my comments were made on pure principal. I am done explaining this as obviously everyone here only knows of making comments for selfish reasons. Apparently can't even grasp that a comment would be made that has no relation to any monetary or self worldly gain.

I've heard of principals. One of mine was Mr. Brown. In 5th grade he physically hurt one of the kids in my grade. Then he went to jail haha.
Shimy, can you add a rule that says that in this thread people can't whine and try to push their subjective standards of fairness onto others, while ignoring simple concepts such as mutual knowledge of match-up? I think it would benefit everyone.

lol calling me a smartass, so i guess stating that tournament directors run their own tournament makes me a smartass. ok.

Imagine you challenge a person to a duel. You both have the option of bringing a sword, a spear, or a maul.

Alternately, you can choose to have a weapon picked at random for you right before the duel, and your opponent would be made aware of this choice. Now, you've decided that these rules were unfair (part 1 of difficult to understand) and decide that it would be MORE fair if you had the option of not letting your opponent know what you chose until you feel like it, all while knowing the entire time what weapon he will have. So, for example, he chose to bring a sword. You know he chose to bring a sword. So, you think about it some, and you show up to the fight with a spear, having had a little under a week to prepare in spear vs. sword fighting. The opponent on the other hand has had no idea what the fuck will happen, and is therefore forced to practice against all three weapons equally. This, you feel, is ultimately fair (part 2 of hard to understand).
NOTE: This is wholly different from the 'weapon gets assigned to you at random the day of the fight' because you would ALSO have to practice with all three weapons against his declared sword class. In YOUR proposed scenario, you can merrily practice only spear vs. sword, while he practices sword vs. everything.
FFS.

Learning how to play standard is far more than 'copying builds down.' And basing a build off worker counts is a ridiculous idea since players are constantly losing workers or making small adjustments that may alter their worker counts. Moreover, in professional VODs its very difficult to know the precise worker counts and the timings that players cut workers in all cases. And there are very few replays from the current BW professional metagame in circulation (All replays prior to the Circuit Breaker, La Mancha, Bloody Ridge, etc...map pack are outdated). So I don't think it would be very effective to get information from replays, since there really aren't any good replays that are available for the public.
Moreover, when you say you 'Make up your own builds' I presume you are implying that you play aggressively which also implies you are hoping you don't get scouted so that you can get a cheap win. When players use aggressive builds they tend to be referred to as surprise builds or cheese builds because they are dependent on being unscouted or dependent on an opponent not reacting properly and thereby providing the aggressive player with a quick and easy win, even if the aggressive player isn't as good as the passive player. And learning how to execute standard play along with learning how to adapt to beating aggressive play does require brains, thinking, logic, reason, etc...
Now if you are 'making up your own build' and attempting to play passively, you are going to lose. The current meta game was developed by the most brilliant Starcraft players in the world and has been vigorously redefined for a long time (I don't want to say for the extent of SC's life since there was very little skill development in the early years of SC). Its ridiculous to presume an individual should come up with the same conclusions as hundreds of thousands of hours of vigorous study and experimentation by the professional players and coaches if learning the game by themselves or among a group of equally ignorant players. Do you think its an accident there is such a large skill gap between Korean pro gamers (And even Korean Amateurs) and non Korean players? Well, statistics would tell us its no accident. Professional players constantly refer to other players and their coaching staffs to better understand the current meta game, to refine builds (SKT1 players and Flash talk about this all the time), and to make adjustments to poor decision making in tournament games. And to imply you are smarter or more strategically equipped than professional players is a frivolous argument. So no, you are not necessarily a smarter, more creative, or more intuitive player than people who choose to learn and implement the standard meta game and build orders into their games.
Now, I'm not saying that it will make a difference if you race pick and I'm not attempting to argue that your opponents will have very refined mechanics. In fact, even if the players did have refined mechanics the games are pretty much all played on back to back days so there wouldn't be enough time to prepare anyways. But the statement you made about standard users is condescending to how much work it takes to learn the SC meta game and to be able to apply it in a rather cheesy environment like iCCup or lower ranked Fish games. Its not easy to do, its not mindless, and in my opinion, it is more difficult that making up your own aggressive builds and hoping your opponent doesn't know how to handle it.

ITS A TOURNAMENT DUDE. You completely ignore this point: Someone know hows to use all three weapons sword, spear and a maul. He knows in round one his spear will work best vs his opponents sword so he wins.
However round two he is now forced to use his spear vs his opponents sword even though he knows his maul would work best. So now even though he trained for all three weapons he only gets to use one of them. All because the person who only knows one weapon talked the king into making him use that weapon for the rest of the tournament.

For this approach to be valid, you would have to state from the start what weapon you would use vs. every player in the tournament for it to be fair. Otherwise, that information will be unfairly withheld from your potential opponent, whereas you already know what his weapon choice is. You think this is fair?

Dude it's the tournament rules just deal with it.
If you're going to play random play random. When the organizer gives you two weeks to prepare It should be pretty simple to understand why your opponent would like to have equal opportunity to know who he is playing during this time.
Starcraft isn't a sword fight.

One-week or less of prep time just for the pre-tourny pool play.
After that you will have less then 24 hours to "practice" or come up with builds. You won't even know your opponent until then.
So now instead of me saying oh I'd like to play "ZvZ" against this guy. I now don't have that option. For what? So someone has an extra 3-4 hours of knowing my race ahead of time? How will they prepare now? They don't even know they're facing me! LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

You guys must be trolling me now.
#1 I WASNT THE ONE THAT STARTED THE SWORD ANALOGY I ONLY CONTINUED IT TO COUNTER HIS POINT LOL.
#2 You only have two weeks to prepare for the PRE-TOURNY GROUP BRACKETS!!! After that you will have less then 24 hours to prepare for RO16 and then without a doubt less then 24 hours to prepare for RO8.
So you're denying me being able to pick different races vs different players so that someone can have maybe at max an extra 3-4 hours to prepare. Prepare what? more practice time? They will still know my race prior to playing me. What will an extra 3-4hours to (ASSUMING they can even log on and practice prior to the tourney starting) really do?

You try to nit-pick to get around my point. Ok so however much of prep time there is for pre-tourny brackets doesnt change the fact that you only have 24 hour before ro16 starts and without a doubt only 24 hour before ro8 starts.
So you're trying to tell me that it's going to effect someone not knowing my race in advance when they won't even know their playing me until max 24 hours in advance?
It makes no sense

So if PM'ed my opponent the second I knew who I was facing it would LITERALLY change NOTHING because they had no clue they were playing me until then anyways. Sorry but theres no rebuttal for this it's brutally clear that your logic makes no sense of how I will have an unfair advantage.

There's my three match ups for everyone to see. So everyone can prepare now. Per reading the thread RvZ is fair because I have to prepare for three different match ups and so does my opponent.

What are you talking about dude. Can you please just be quiet. You don't even understand the concept of restrictions. As far as my spelling I don't see where I misspelled much and even If I did its bound to happen after 10+ post of trying to explain to you the concept of restrictions vs non-restrictions.
You refuse to acknowledge (or don't understand) how it's restricting. Also it's no more or less fair to force someone to pick match ups the entire tourney then it is to let someone play what race they want vs who they want. That's absurd.
If you can't even see the other side of the argument then please stop arguing. Jesus.
EDIT: I assume you would do it because you're assuming I would do it. How else could you argue against me wanting to pick certain races vs certain players without assuming I would withhold information. Otherwise they would know my race as soon as I knew who was I playing(unless I tried to get an "unjust" advantage.

How about instead of trying to nit-pick things to prove I am wrong you actually address my macro point?
You never addressed how it's damaging to my opponent when he will know my race the second I know I am playing him. Yet you have no problem limiting what match ups I can play later in the name of "fairness"
Also you never addressed how it's "fair" to limit players to watch match ups they can and can't play. IE: Either play ZvP or TvP or PvP choose now and you can never change regardless of your opponent.

The irony is unreal.
In response to your EDIT, I will reiterate that you did not answer my question in the past, so I had the right to assumption due to your pointed lack of response. I did not realize I was dealing with a person who doesn't read posts they replied to. Sorry for that. Your assumption, however, is completely invalid because I play Protoss, and therefore will never and have never been in your predicament.

No, I failed to realize that I was dealing with a person who either a) has no objective sense of fairness or b) has no ability to understand math (1 week of prep time is more than 6 days of prep time, 24 hours is more than 20, and timezones also come into play... also, what would be the cut-off point at which you would be DQ'd for not sending your race pick on time? is that up to you to decide as well?). Although, I guess it's my fault for not realizing this after you decided that your made-up builds were better than pro builds and that it's anything but socially abhorrent to come into a thread just to cry about rules that you CHOSE to follow (as in, no one forced you to follow). You try to nit-pick to get around my point. Ok so however much of prep time there is for pre-tourny brackets doesnt change the fact that you only have 24 hour before ro16 starts and without a doubt only 24 hour before ro8 starts. So you're trying to tell me that it's going to effect someone not knowing my race in advance when they won't even know their playing me until max 24 hours in advance? It makes no sense So if PM'ed my opponent the second I knew who I was facing it would LITERALLY change NOTHING because they had no clue they were playing me until then anyways. Sorry but theres no rebuttal for this it's brutally clear that your logic makes no sense of how I will have an unfair advantage. I would send my race pick immediately after knowing my opponent. I am sorry that you assume iam like you and your gang and would with-hold the information to try and get an adjust advantage. Apparently you lied and don't know anything of the word principal. Why did you not say this when I asked you earlier (I can reference the post, if you like)? This whole time I (and others) were under the impression that you would just pick whenever you felt like it, after thinking about it or watching their replays or something. I also love how you accuse me of this act, even though I don't even have the option (and never did, in any tournament). On top of which, I have been berating you for the fact that you might do this during our conversation, how can you assume I would do it despite my arguing against it? Ridiculous. Your lack of logic is only paralleled by your laughably pompous approach to both argument and spelling (bold, above). Hint: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/principal What are you talking about dude. Can you please just be quiet. You don't even understand the concept of restrictions. As far as my spelling I don't see where I misspelled much and even If I did its bound to happen after 10+ post of trying to explain to you the concept of restrictions vs non-restrictions. You refuse to acknowledge (or don't understand) how it's restricting. Also it's no more or less fair to force someone to pick match ups the entire tourney then it is to let someone play what race they want vs who they want. That's absurd. If you can't even see the other side of the argument then please stop arguing. Jesus. EDIT: I assume you would do it because you're assuming I would do it. How else could you argue against me wanting to pick certain races vs certain players without assuming I would withhold information. Otherwise they would know my race as soon as I knew who was I playing(unless I tried to get an "unjust" advantage. 1) You did not answer my question earlier, which asked "When will you let the other person know your race?" From this I assumed that you have no standard for this and would just do it whenever. This was obviously incorrect, something I learned now. I have no reason to argue with you any longer. Which is exactly what I said in the post you just quoted, and apparently did not read. 2) I understand what restrictions are. Do you understand what a principal is? It's a person who runs a school. The reason I pointed it out is because of the irony: "Apparently you lied and don't know anything of the word principal." I am simply baffled that anyone can write this in earnest. The best part is that it isn't even the first time you've written the word incorrectly and it's been commented on. 3) This all leads me to the conclusion that not only do you try to end arguments by accusing others of a lack of understanding of words or simple concepts (after failing to answer their questions which would resolve the whole issue, no less), but you also don't read what is written back to you, or don't understand it. The irony is unreal. In response to your EDIT, I will reiterate that you did not answer my question in the past, so I had the right to assumption due to your pointed lack of response. I did not realize I was dealing with a person who doesn't read posts they replied to. Sorry for that. Your assumption, however, is completely invalid because I play Protoss, and therefore will never and have never been in your predicament.
I never argue with "race-pickers" or "random" people out of... uh... principle... because they have a weird superiority complex / they're deeply afraid that if they lose their element of surprise, they'll have to play a fair game.

Impressive coming from someone who only plays one race. So it's your opinion that I should have no advantage for knowing how to play all three races correct?
That's a really interesting perspective.

Nono Nina is right. Since Random isn't played in the korean prof scene and because 90% of people on iccup wet themselves if they don't know their opponents race then we should without a doubt place restrictions on them and say they have a superiority complex and deeply afraid of losing element of suprise.
It has nothing to do that players can't adapt vs Random users because like you said all the known builds are already figured out for them in "X vs X" and heaven forbid they have to make up their own.

Talk about assumptions. That's all you people do. Call me a smurf ( when I have more games then 75%+ players on my account) and call me a cheeser.
Get real.

I also love how you accuse me of this act, even though I don't even have the option (and never did, in any tournament). On top of which, I have been berating you for the fact that you might do this during our conversation, how can you assume I would do it despite my arguing against it? Ridiculous. Your lack of logic is only paralleled by your laughably pompous approach to both argument and spelling (bold, above). Hint: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/principal What are you talking about dude. Can you please just be quiet. You don't even understand the concept of restrictions. As far as my spelling I don't see where I misspelled much and even If I did its bound to happen after 10+ post of trying to explain to you the concept of restrictions vs non-restrictions. You refuse to acknowledge (or don't understand) how it's restricting. Also it's no more or less fair to force someone to pick match ups the entire tourney then it is to let someone play what race they want vs who they want. That's absurd. If you can't even see the other side of the argument then please stop arguing. Jesus. EDIT: I assume you would do it because you're assuming I would do it. How else could you argue against me wanting to pick certain races vs certain players without assuming I would withhold information. Otherwise they would know my race as soon as I knew who was I playing(unless I tried to get an "unjust" advantage. 1) You did not answer my question earlier, which asked "When will you let the other person know your race?" From this I assumed that you have no standard for this and would just do it whenever. This was obviously incorrect, something I learned now. I have no reason to argue with you any longer. Which is exactly what I said in the post you just quoted, and apparently did not read. 2) I understand what restrictions are. Do you understand what a principal is? It's a person who runs a school. The reason I pointed it out is because of the irony: "Apparently you lied and don't know anything of the word principal." I am simply baffled that anyone can write this in earnest. The best part is that it isn't even the first time you've written the word incorrectly and it's been commented on. 3) This all leads me to the conclusion that not only do you try to end arguments by accusing others of a lack of understanding of words or simple concepts (after failing to answer their questions which would resolve the whole issue, no less), but you also don't read what is written back to you, or don't understand it. The irony is unreal. In response to your EDIT, I will reiterate that you did not answer my question in the past, so I had the right to assumption due to your pointed lack of response. I did not realize I was dealing with a person who doesn't read posts they replied to. Sorry for that. Your assumption, however, is completely invalid because I play Protoss, and therefore will never and have never been in your predicament. I never argue with "race-pickers" or "random" people out of... uh... principle... because they have a weird superiority complex / they're deeply afraid that if they lose their element of surprise, they'll have to play a fair game. Impressive coming from someone who only plays one race. So it's your opinion that I should have no advantage for knowing how to play all three races correct? That's a really interesting perspective. Okay man it's time to finally burst your bubble: I am pretty sure most people in this tournament know how to BBS, 4 pool, and proxy 2 gate. Oh wait, I forgot you make your own builds, so lets make it BBS with 1 extra SCV from the mineral line, drone along with the lings in 4 pool, and a probe with your zealots. Nono Nina is right. Since Random isn't played in the korean prof scene and because 90% of people on iccup wet themselves if they don't know their opponents race then we should without a doubt place restrictions on them and say they have a superiority complex and deeply afraid of losing element of suprise. It has nothing to do that players can't adapt vs Random users because like you said all the known builds are already figured out for them in "X vs X" and heaven forbid they have to make up their own. Heaven forbid you just say "I'm playing PvZ" and play.
Heaven forbid you comprehend that this is a strategy game. Heaven forbid you comprehend that being able to play more then one race "should" be a benefit. Heaven forbid that you just maybe don't applaud having restrictions placed on players. Heaven forbid that you learn to play the game without having someone tell you their race in advance so you can go write down your pro-gaming builds. Heaven forbid that you understand that picking different races vs different people is a "strategy" and that race vs race in this game can be a "strategy" that you use in a "Strategy game".

Please, I beg you, don't start asking him about anything RvZ. He will bring up how in ISL2 he didn't have to do it, and how he is losing the benefit from being able to play all 3 races, and how it's placing restrictions on him that he has to announce race. Then he will tell you that you don't know what restrictions, fairness, and principals are. He will go as far as claiming that you don't even know of the words, and that if you say you do, you are a liar.
Throughout the entire process he will not read what you write, and will quote himself repeatedly, adding nothing.
Please, don't start. Many valiant posters have fallen before your time.

I think Kiante or Noise[AoV] will win if they both make it through group stages and don't play each other in RO16.

I am ranked olympic #1 103-0 I was referring to the fact that you are probably also somewhere around A- rank on WhineCup, specializing in late-game QQ builds that go against the typical strategy of crying first then settling for what you initially had. Your unique approach throws most people off, hence your high rank, but your willingness to settle first is detrimental to your achievement of an olympic rank.

I'm doing this just for fun and for viewers enjoyment, so if you're interested then come stop by my stream ! www.livestream.com/telecomSC2P.S. - another reason i'm doing this is because i know there are people who enjoy to watch some BW, and theres not many BW streams on TLnet, one of the viewers asked me " why not stream BW you're playing ? " so i thought, hell why not . Especially when i just found out its alot easier to stream BW in windowed mode with your resolution changed.
I think I found Scan guys.

lol just set the rules , only can choose 1 race. problem solved :D imo is kinda dumb that people choose match up, so if that person like t v z and t v p only and opponent also same and neither want to change race. is a never ending process means the game cant be started? lol

I accidentally went to sign up for D ranks team league one night when I was drunk because I thought it was for teams with rank of D not players , I didn't read it correctly and I also posted that in the thread correcting my mistake, I was B- before i stopped playing BW which was years ago, the post you posted of mine was in December 18th, 2010, I haven't played Broodwar in years so my skill level would be about C level, I understand that a lot of you don't like me but I am not doing anything to harm you, the fact that a lot of you get so uppity just because I wanted to play in a tournament, and then go and put replays of me in your sig, talk a lot of shit for no reason and be BM , all because I was in interested in playing in a tournament.
Like I said before I understand a lot of you dislike me, but I don't think I have done anything to you guys besides beat you in the game. (Fold, Puppykiller). So if I am D / D+, and I beat both of you undefeated, What does that make you? More eligible to play in this tournament?
Also it is pretty insane that you guys are so absolutely obsessed with disliking me that you would put a 2+ year old replay of me losing in your sig, cast replays of me , and have me be the topic of you're conversations all the time. lol. But seriously, thanks for the publicity. gl hf gg.

There is also a fine line between people stating they're opinion and people outright purposely harassing and antagonizing just because of personal vendetta's.

You're in luck. GGzerG plays Protoss.
I, however, demand a bo9 grudgematch with all match-ups. I will cast it IN COLOR.

Hello I will be streaming Pool A. Maybe commentate, but I suck so haha or observe. Starting now with my match.
|
What do we do if it's 3-0 1-2 1-2 1-2? Tie breaker?
|
Also, do 2-1 2-1 winners need to tiebreak for seed spots? What map would it be played on?

gg's pool mates. It was anyone's game between you three.

This conversation has no end or point. I was just pointing out that it wasn't an out-of-the-blue decision, it was a response to a stimulus, apparently a strategically appropriate one.

Shiny, you have to remove the results that are in your post when you quoted Jealous.

Thanks! I didn't know that it worked like that lol I thought when he edited his, it would also edit mine haha
Thanks though!

Is there any hope for the people who didn't make it in their pool to get a spot over the walkovers/no shows?
I don't mind playing a few extra games if that's possible.
I'm sorry guys T_T.

I'm sorry guys T_T. Fold! D: I think if someone drops out or can't play in the round of 16, we'll have a vote for a "fan favorite" to play to take the spot :D If no one drops out, no worries! With the success this has been showing so far, I plan to have another one next month :D (Although I may change things up a bit)
|
I'm going to lose so hard. -_-x
|
Also I keep forgetting to say this, but:
Everyone please send me your reps! (Even if you lose the pool)
Having a caster, we're gonna follow 1 person from each Pool and cast their 3 games! Times and dates will be announced sometime tomorrow or the next day.
But this cannot be possible if we don't have replays! Also, to see if everyone is telling to the truth
EDIT: These can also be sent via TL if that is easier

For potential dropped players, I would normally side with a wildcard tournament, but I think fan favorite is a great idea too, especially since it will take less time. Giving back to people who give to TL, like our streamers and guide makers (I imagine those are the people who would be voted for). Although, people might cheat >> Make it by-post vote, with only posters who registered before the start of the tournament? That would be best imo xD
Yea I'm paranoid.

Only if you say what race you'll play in it before you even sign up for it. Like, right now. We can't get TOO wild, despite it being a wildcard tournament.
LOL

Still waiting for [KDV]Mewka to respond to my PM's or see him online.
Asked profprotoss to play twice online both times he's been unable to play. Once he logged off, second time he said he's playing 2v2 then never responded.
It's no problem just showing my effort to play the matches so if they don't get played its their forfeit not mine.

hey group H , drywater and just.. when are we gonna play? give me a pm. the best for me to online is around is around 20~23:00 kst. give me your timing

1. [KDV]Mewka didn't respond to me either
2. I was in game when you asked me, I couldn't respond due to all the action.
Well we just played...where do I report BM?

It doesn't have to be an honor for it to be a fact that his games are entertaining as hell. I don't want to spoil anything or upload his reps during a tourney, so you just have to see for yourself. I want to share this joy with others, DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?! This isn't a reason to shit on me!

Message from Cocky:
Yeah I'm still alive, thx for asking. xD I just had a very busy month because of final exams, but I will definitely play my pool games. Thx for the reminder.
Probe doesn't need to wait that long if it's just a new keyboard

Dang... I've watched some pool C games and have decided: Instead of following 1 person from each group, I'm going to select the most entertaining games and have them casted O_O LonelyProbe-- was right.

Would the other players in the group like to send me a PM about when would be a good time for them to play or would you like me to just add you and try and play whenever we're on together?

s2 if you haven't seen Justolamas and I can't make it today. Tomorrow at same time please. Iplaythings also has said he would try to be online around then as well.

Lumire, why must you bm me? I beat you 3-0. Go ahead and make excuses. I was trying to be gm but you guys just can't resist trashing me can you.

I'm quite often online. Evening KST is the best time for me. I've already added you as a friend on Iccup, you should do the same !

Hey guys! I'm pleased I'm getting games in, but continue to finish up the rest of your pool play games! So far we've some interesting and entertaining replays sent in and we plan on casting some either Wednesday or Thursday of this week! So keep sending them in and let me know if you cannot get into contact with anyone! If this is the case, I am prepared to replace people. I will try to replace the person with the same race so your training wasn't all for not! :D
|
I am set to play lumire sometime this week.
Cocky said he can play after Wednesdays due to exam.
No answer from Terranos though..
|
*****Ok, since I need a good amount of games to get casted, I will now accept all the games you have played. Although you can now send me single replays, please continue to finish ALL of your games*****
Shout outs to Pool A who sent me every single replay on the first day they could

You lost ZvsZ twice and PvZ once.
You just said
"he didn't exactly mean "entertaining" in a positive sense" ... that's bm
EDIT: The only reasoned I mentioned it is because you bm me. Were you just looking for an excuse to make an ill-will comment about me?
As far as skill is concerned your probably better then me 1v1 all things considered. I need to practice 1v1 a lot
|
Can you tell to me how that was bm? he was being sarcastic and i knew because i was there and i just pointed it out... I dont get it o.o
|
He already bm's me to the max so I expect nothing else. So if you really werent bm im sorry but it seemed that way to me.

Awesome news!!! Helping out with this tournament is no other then LRM)NoOne!!!!! He's offered to help cast both Pool Play and the Ro16 through to the finals!
Keep sending those replays in! :D

You do realize that I live in Europe right? 11-13 KST is 3-5 AM for me, that's where I have to sleep to not fuck up my sleep schedule, I'll be trying my best to be online as much as I am able to but scheduling matches in that time is just in no way possible for me. I'll be online for 23-4 KST..
I suppose this happens when people in Denmark get's matches scheduled with people from the US, I don't wanna take school of because of this tournament, I am willing to give up other past time things but if the scheduling is impossible unless it has to be in those morning hours I'll have to forfeit it.

oh if you're still online I'll play now
edit:on iccup as drywater

@CobaltBlu, krndandaman : when do you guys play ? I've literally been online all day. According to iccup, krndandaman you haven't been online since Jan 29th, which is when we were supposed to start pool games. I'm online very often, usually from 10AM to 2 AM KST, except lunch breaks/transportation, so please PM me when you can play.

Yeah, I've had Dsyxelic on my friend list for like a week and haven't seen him on once, despite giving him a very broad window of when I would be online, and I literally spent a whole day waiting for Cobalt and asking sGs people if they knew where he was.

Ok I got the clear that I'm getting a new laptop tomorrow so whenever my group wants to get together just add NoisE[AoV] on ICCup or send me a PM here. I'm really looking forward to playing you all!

Mewka responded to me and I responded back to when I can play. I think he sleeps or works when I play. I can normally be on week days from 5:30ishpm EST to 10:30ish PM est (maybe little later if its the only way to play).
EDIT: Me and Sg's.pie still haven't played him. I was on last fri, sat, sun and this mon and tues looking for him. I am making every humanely possible attempt to play.

Geez, if you guys are getting that worried about playing the games lets just set a concrete time to play. Whoever doesn't show up can be W.O'd then.
Hmmm yesterday when typing /where dsyxelic it said "User last seen on Jan 29th". Anyway I'll try to be online between 6:30-8PM EST, but it's like 7.30AM-9AM for me, exactly when I'm supposed to go to work, so I really can't promise I'll be there. I can host, so don't worry about that.

If you're online now we can play. I'll be online for the next 10 hours.

These games were the best ones sent in so don't complain LOL I'm sorry if you get your losses casted, but it's better than seeing some of the other really one-sided games. Thank you.

Lol yea that game... Haha. I think it was chosen because of his harass pwnage and your epic fail. My game vs. thundersapien (also a PvT) was much more back-and-forth and dynamic in terms of engagements, but didn't get chosen, so that's why I'm assuming yours got picked like comedic relief haha xD

Justolamas and I play each other often, and I sometimes do a fast 3/4 fact push from him. Since I lost to him many times when he just speedzeal'd me as I tried to take a third I opted for a late never taking a 3rd and just harass.
You really should've had robo though.

I posted the results I have so far in the spoiler pools! Please, people who I don't have games from, play those games/send me the reps! >.> If I have made any mistakes, please let me know :D
(Currently making the Ro16)
Also, I hope everyone knows that the Ro16 is being played live and casted live on the date and time listed in the OP! So that means this Saturday at 7PM EST (-5:GMT)(Being there 15 minutes before hand helps a ton as well). Please contact me via PM if you cannot play your matches at this time and we will see if you can play them earlier (Depending on how nice your opponent is/if he can play them before that scheduled time.)
Now surely not all Ro16 games will get casted (that would be AT LEAST 32 games since it's a Bo3), but I hope to get a few of them casted and the people that are there on time certainly help with that! :D
Thank you and good luck!
-Shimy EDIT: Also, huge thanks to our cast today! Artanis[xp] and LRM)NoOne deserve a huge thanks for their awesome job even though some of the games weren't the most amusing to cast. At least that last one made up for it all :D

So this is 1AM in germany? These timezones always confuse me. If so I won't be able to play at that time, I plan going to a birthday party on saturday. Could you add the event to the calendar so I can see when it is? T_T

Please contact me via PM if you cannot play your matches at this time and we will see if you can play them earlier (Depending on how nice your opponent is/if he can play them before that scheduled time.)
Now surely not all Ro16 games will get casted (that would be AT LEAST 32 games since it's a Bo3), but I hope to get a few of them casted and the people that are there on time certainly help with that! :D
Thank you and good luck!
-Shimy EDIT: Also, huge thanks to our cast today! Artanis[xp] and LRM)NoOne deserve a huge thanks for their awesome job even though some of the games weren't the most amusing to cast. At least that last one made up for it all :D can we have the matches be played like we did for the pool round? I can't have obs in my games or I lag. If this is the case, then yes.
I hope we have some people we can cast live :D

Hmmm so my ro16 game starts at 3AM on Sunday in my timezone. I think I am gonna need to reschedule this, but I don't know who my opponent is yet.

Just letting everyone know that johny23 guarantees he will reach the semifinals if he makes it out of his group. This is a warning to all you non-believers.

True story. I will be on tomorrow at round 5:30pm est or 6:30pm est to play [kdv]mewka. I tried meeting him all this week I never saw him on Sat/Sun/Mon/Tues/Wend/Thurs. He only replied to my PM once and never told me what time to meet him only asked me what time I can play.
So I'll be ready Friday to play 7pmEST per original time we were going to play.

I'm afraid tomorrow will already be too late. I mean, I have a 13 hours difference with EST, when my opponent will be announced tomorrow I'll be sleeping. When I'll get up, and see the post, I'll PM my opponent but he'll be sleeping haha. I hope it will be alright, that would be so silly to pass the pool play only to forfeit ro16

Why not just make the people who have to play at alternate times play each other? If seeds allow, of course... Although I don't think seeds matter THAT much for most of these groups (a lot of 2-1 finishes and not much skill difference).

To be honest, I *should* be able to play ro16 even though it's Sunday 3AM for me. I just can't be 100% sure I will stay up that late. If I make it to ro8, Monday 3AM is just out of question.
I'll try to contact my ro16 opponent as soon as I know who he is to see if there is a time that would be fine for both of us, otherwise I'll try to play at the original time. Maybe I'm lucky and he's in the Asia timezone too (China/Singapore/Australia anyone?)

So pumped to watch from the Ro16!!

I completely called your game too. Someone was like "panda always goes drops," so I said "ah in that case, panda will cliff drop Kiante, Kiante will suicide all his goons trying to kill it, then ragequit." At least you can legitimately blame the map though. Tau Cross terrible for PvT :/
|
Yeah, Tau Cross... really didn't like the map choice.
I suppose Triatholon is there for the novelty factor but I would've preferred Plasma. (Plasma is a great map!) Outsider is already included, one of the best maps.
There aren't even a few good three-player maps.

Tau Cross terrible for PvT :/ no, the reason i lost that game wasn't the drops.i only like like 10 or so probes to it. the reason was i haven't been playing much, and i made the decision to do an 11(was supposed to be 12) gate allin because i didn't really feel like playing on. just as i decided to go panda dropped my third, and instead of just cleaning it up (it was like 2 tanks and a vulture) i just went for it because i was already sold on my allin off 3 base idea. if i'd just cleaned up the drop with a few of my reinforcing units i could've easily won the game as i was in a good economic position.
The only person i can blame is myself, not the map, not the drops. the cliff drop did fuck all in comparison to the vultures that would've done their damage regardless of the cliff. i didn't rage quit, i made a poor decision, and once my third died there was no coming back in the game for me. my main was basically out, nat was soon to follow and i didn't have a third while panda still had 3 cc's and reasonable scv count (not great as i'd killed a few, but enough). I didn't have tech to fall back on, just gateway units, not enough to bust again.

I like Tau Cross as a protoss, forces you to be very aggressive it's nice. I love outsider too, I'm sure we're going to see very entertaining ro16 games.

I made it way harder than it should've been, tbqh. I made a couple stupid decisions in defending. I scanned the 11 gateways and was like, oh lets move out 8 vultures to go support this drop too(which, incidentally, did very little), but really, I should've just stayed and defended. It would've made a huge difference too, since I had tanks fighting zealots in the first big push. Then I seige 2 tanks randomly later while 8 zealots are charging it >_>.
I was really close to gging too, if kiante reinforced with a couple of goons or killed off a bit more somewhere I probably would've died.

This mewka guy is frustrating he just sent me a PM saying he isn't asking what time I can play and that he is on today a lot with [kdv]mewka ID. I dont understand this guy at all.
I told him we will play at 7:00pm EST today which is the scheduled time anyways. It's not my fault if he can't make it. I made every attempt to play him for a full week and he never responded.
Also doesn't sg's pie still have to play him? or SG's.pie just forfeits the win to him?

WTH U_U How did this happen? It looked completely fine last night and now it's all messed up! I'm on it. And I'll be posting the brackets soon. It seemed fair that the two pools that won't give me any information have to play eachother so that I can give everyone who is finished a person to play lol

Here it is: http://challonge.com/sgscro I posted it in the OP as well! Good luck and have fun!
EDIT: Your first map you play is in the OP so go read it!!! Also, each player can VETO one map and declare it before any games are played. Games will be played @ 7PM EST February 4th. If you cannot play your game then, contact your opponent and schedule something up. Thank you.

Trying to get the reppack currently. Thought Shimy had sent it to me over skype but looks like the download process was canceled.

Shimy, your pool results are still ef'd up.
|

I think it was random in the way seeds were determined.
|
It shouldn't be random. It should be #2 from a group vs #1.
It's a bit ef'd up right now.
probe and profprotoss are 3-0 winners drywater vs lumire is fair cause lumire finished second in his pool but kororo vs krn are pool winners so that shouldn't happen.

but the top bracket is like that too in that pool G winner will face Pool B winner etc
|
Should really not be the case though.

meh im gonna have a hell of a hard time getting to even ro8/ro4.
@Kororo, if you see this on time want to play at either 7PM EST today or something? i'm out all day saturday and can't play. and can you host? Sorry man I'm going to be out today. EDIT: I didn't realize the matches are tomorrow TT. Also, I can't host. I might be able to play at 10-12PM PST though.

Well seeding pool winner vs some other pool's second player is generally how things are done, but w/e.
Also, there's a chance that I'll beat shotcoder and claim group F's winner spot, and you'll end up playing someone else, although I dunno if shimy wants to change that or not.

Btw Sunday 7 pm EST is during the superbowl, just making sure everyone is aware so if you get into the Ro8 you're not like "OH SHIT!" on the day of and don't schedule accordingly.

This matters because if enabled there is a chance you won't be able to see each other's games. To add to this, you need to host in UDP mode under multiplayer, in case you didn't know ^^ Also, if you don't use a launcher I've heard you will have less problems but I'm not 100% on that, so remember to save reps if you have to resort to this.

Once again, important notice
First, Probe has contributed a crap ton and this should be noted.
Second, I have more results. I just need to know about Pool G! So someone please tell me who were the winners of that group O_O Anyhoo, here's the new link that has new people listed on it. Sorry to the people who are having to deal with Pool G's lack of communication. http://challonge.com/sgscro

I'll probably be around sometime from 5 pm est on ward tomorrow, maybe a bit earlier, maybe a bit later.

I am a little concerned that these maps are not balanced enough for Terran.
First of all Destination is extremely hard for Terran to win vs Protoss (I've yet to seen Terran win vs P on this map in 55 games)
Second of all I noticed some of the maps appear to have expansions infront of there base AND an expansion inside there base. This makes it extremely easy for protoss to just max out on Zealot/Dragoon 3/3/3 and roll over the terran 3/3 army with 45 siege tanks 20 goliath and 20ish vultures.
I guess terran could try and siege on the high ground but even then the protoss zealots/dragoons would just crush it.

Balance Whining? Really?
These maps have been posted for a pretty long time now, right?

Yes, I knew I would get shotcoder. You may think brackets are "random" but theyre really not. It's my bad luck to of course get one of the players favoured to win it. I'd rather play S2GLOW, NI.lumire any protoss or any other zerg.
Only getting Probe might be worst. I think he's just a little rusty. Watching him vs a B 1v1 player was scary as hell though. I think Probe or Noise[aov] will win tourney.

What? I am not playing T v P. I am playing P v T. I was trying to be nice and get better maps for Terran users since they obviously got the short end of the stick. There's not much open room in these maps to flank and some of the maps have bases inside their mains.
Looks like you're the one being bad manner. I am just trying to be fair.

Ok well Ill go to bed now and try to get on a little earlier I guess. I don't want to make any promises but Ill try to accomodate your schedule.
I am reserving the right to play at the normal time incase for some reason I can't make it earlier.

rofl anyone who has seen me play can verify I am C+ max. Not to mention this name has tons of games on it. I only have like one other C- name, one other C name and one D+ name That's it. I am not a 1v1 player.
I've played mostly 2v2 on iccup. I don't practice, train or play 1v1 hardly ever.
Also I'am fairly certain there's a smurf in the tourney who is B-/B rank 1v1(and no not profprotoss). I won't say anymore because it will be pretty obvious soon if I am right or wrong.
|
I really hope you're not accusing me of smurf? lol anyone who knows me personally or through brood war will say otherwise
|
I don't need to say anything or name anyone. I'll let other people, the replays and results decide if I am right or wrong.
|
Yeah dude, I'm in total cohorts with Shimy to rig this tournament against you, johny23.
You better watch out, cause I'm paying shotcoder $50 to beat you(might not be necessary cause he plays the imba, imba race of terran on the imba, imba map pool).

I don't think shotcoder is a smurf. He doesn't even need to be a smurf. He's on the higher rank end of tourney (C+) and these maps seem very nice for terran.
It's funny I've goten two replies though with people thinking that I am mentioning them smurfing when I didn't mention anyone LOL

First of all Destination is extremely hard for Terran to win vs Protoss (I've yet to seen Terran win vs P on this map in 55 games)
Second of all I noticed some of the maps appear to have expansions infront of there base AND an expansion inside there base. This makes it extremely easy for protoss to just max out on Zealot/Dragoon 3/3/3 and roll over the terran 3/3 army with 45 siege tanks 20 goliath and 20ish vultures.
I guess terran could try and siege on the high ground but even then the protoss zealots/dragoons would just crush it. Balance Whining? Really? These maps have been posted for a pretty long time now, right? What? I am not playing T v P. I am playing P v T. I was trying to be nice and get better maps for Terran users since they obviously got the short end of the stick. There's not much open room in these maps to flank and some of the maps have bases inside their mains. Looks like you're the one being bad manner. I am just trying to be fair. well 5/16 are pure terrans and several of the 11 others have a TvX matchup 9/32 were pure terrans in pool play terrans seem to be doing fine regardless of map balance (dunno if it is imbalanced or not)
lol, I was just being sarcastic for fun. 200/200 Army of terran owns 200/200 protoss. And IMO free bases are a bigger boost to terran since it's typically harder for terran to secure expos.

good night and my ro4 prediction is looking a little weak jealous. shotcoder def has more 1v1 experience then me he's gosu ;D

you and I both know that this post is a complete lie, you watched a terran beat a protoss on this map earlier today... (and I have the replay to prove it)
we were actually talking afterwards about how hard it is to engage terran because of all of the choke points...

Sorry guys, i forgot to send the results yesterday + I'm 6 hours ahead of most of you guys(+1 UTC). I sent you a pm with my results shimy, and i sent you all the reps I have. PS: I'm 1:2. I lost to sgs.Yaqoob and scary[t], and I won against Puppy. What I know from hearsay is that:Yaqoob won against scary and me,though i have no idea how he played against puppy. And i think Puppy won against scary[t].

This is how the group went:
Yaqoob > Scary[T] Yaqoob > Oxy Scary > Oxy Puppy > Scary Puppy > Yaqoob Oxy > Puppy
Puppy 2-1 Yaqoob 2-1 Oxy 1-2 Scary 1-2

Nice, good job puppy!

lol, man I am just having fun and being sarcastic. I think most of these maps are hard to engage terran on. There's so many good terran maps I am going to go look at which one to veto.

I guess I'd better post here directly since TL doesn't allow to send PM to multiple users.
As sent by PM, I can't play now, but I think Shimy is ok to let us play even a few hours before the original deadline which was 8AM for us local time, so we can play at 9 or 10AM if 8AM is too early. I'll check TL quickly from the bed when I can :d

shotcoder you said you wanted to play earlier right? I am on right now. Didn't see you on this morning so I came back now.

WALA HWAITING (#1 wala fanboy)
|
Casting will be at 9PM EST tonight!
Due to the busy schedule of sGs.L_Master, we're pushing things a couple hours back. This doesn't mean you have to show up at that time (Although it would be cool to cast some live), I'll still be there at 7 to host and whatnot.
We're meeting in the channel: op sGsCRO
EDIT: Will probably be a short cast too. I like PL :D Also, we'll cast on Sunday and Monday. So Ro8 people don't stress it. You'll have some more time.
|
Aww I think this overlaps with SPL time. Thats ok, i'll watch both at the same time.

I message my opponent on teamliquid and he hasn't replied yet.

EDIT: Panda says you're on.

Still waiting on a few people to play TT
Those people are:
Puppykiller vs SL]..AleC (I know AleC was ready to play but Puppy wasn't on.) -Mantoss-vs Endy (I know their ordeal and they shall play early tomorrow I think) sGs.Yaqoob vs SakuraKyouko (Not sure what's going on with this group)

As for casting, the games will be casted Sunday and Monday. Ro16 on Sunday and Ro8 on Monday. Sorry for the mix up in times but it seems people are busy TT
EDIT: Sunday might be at a weird time since Superbowl is coming on.

I want to apologize to everyone. Family plans took longer than I expected and then my internet decided it would be a spectacular time to go down on me.
I'm sorry guys.
I guess the current plan now is to cast RO16 tomorrow (assuming Shimy wants to because of the super bowl and such) and then the Ro8 cast on Monday.

For anyone curious about what I was thinking in the JustoLamas vs Drywater game, I faked a super fast third to provoke him to 1. push out and try to kill me 2. push out to take a quick third of his own he did neither and just stayed in his base so he made me look like a dumbass trying to play 2 base protoss vs 2 base terran. That was a very clever strategy CCF. I also noticed you canceling your 2nd gateway after his scout died. Very tricksy indeed. Too bad it didn't work

panic, choke and triathlon.

I really need to practice on some of these new maps. Triathlon is so lame. Its hard to have fun and play relaxed on maps you don't know... it makes me panic and freeze up.
This tourney has been fun though so far its made me want to come back to BW and start training 1v1 instead of being 2v2 player.

Ok seriously why is the time between rounds in this tourney so short? I see no reason for the rush. Some of us have jobs. Also sorry Alec that we didnt play yet. Yesterday I went home to take a nap about 5 hours before our game, ended up sleeping almost 16 hours...

Due to things like this^ Admins and I have decided to cast Ro16 on Monday and Ro8 on Tuesday. So you guys have up until those days to play. Thank you and sorry for this weird layout. Clearly I didn't think it through too well

I messaged my opponent yesterday and he replied late at night that he had forgot or slept and that he had to go to work so I told him we could play the games today if he wanted.

Well the way the brackets were set up I'd tend to disagree. If krndandaman makes ro4 he will win. I am even willing to put money on it if someone wants to bet me.

I am not spoiling. I am saying if krndandaman makes it past ro4 then he will the tourney because i think the lower bracket had more players favored to win it and they got knocked out.
RO4/ RO8 hasn't even been played yet. I am not spoiling o.o

I also think you should just have ro8/ro4 casts on weekends and the final the week after instead of the final a day after the semis.
I also like the idea of semi's being bo5.

I just need to ask... why the weird maps? Yes if you are a noob who hates BW and your name is Ribbon, watching pros do unconventional strategies on retarded maps is exciting. However, if you are a C level player who probably spends a lot of time practicing conventional strategies on more standard maps, and does not have the luxury of time that progamers have to come up with map specific strats, nor the guidance of 30 year old coaches who used to play BW back in 2001 when BW made no sense, you probably do not have the capability to produce a decent game on a map like triathlon or outsider. Weird maps both harass the players preparing for the tourney (by forcing them to waste time coming up with a gimmicky strategy that they will probably never use again) and diminish the the value for the viewers (as two noobs clumsily trying to figure out how there builds interact is painful to watch). Seriously its not like the C tour is for the viewers anyway.. its just for the players to get the experience of tourney like play!

Yeah, I tend to agree. Triathlon is really gag lol. Oh well maybe for next tourney Shimy will change maps if enough people agree.
C-/C/C+ ranks with 5 bases all on top of each other. Triathlon is almost like bgh.

I agree completely, it was different when i thought we could choose not to play on those maps since there was enough standard ones in the map pool, but almost every match has a really wierd starting map which each player wastes all their time practicing on only that map which results in a clumsy clusterfuck where you have no idea what your doing followed by really wierd/bad games since they haven't played a standard game for days.

Well things must of went right for you then. After I play on a map that I hate and don't know what to do it makes my follow up games suck as well because I am frustrated and paniced. Kind of along the lines of what lumire said.
Actually the only map that I really can't stand is Triathlon. Oh well nothing I can do about the maps now.

It doesn't even take that long to create a game plan for each and every map. You look at maps like Outside and immediately notice the easy 3rd and 4th mineral onlys, the extremely short push distance, and the easily droppable cliffs, expansions, and naturals. That means you can play greedy by going for a fast 3rd, timing push, or drop play. I don't understand how hard it is to come up with a game plan like that. then you sit down and play 10-15 games and find out which you are most comfortable with. What weird maps like this do is find out who the actual better all around player is. Not only do you have to create builds and prepare, but you have to innovate and think outside the box. Sure he could have made it all fighting spirit but how many TvPs do you want to see open 1 gate FE vs Seige expand into fast third into a 3/2 timing push?

While outsider isn't my favorite it's a workable map. Triathlon is built sloppy and expansions on top of expansions. The map is so unusual how can you say the better player wins? Most maps are some-what the same. Maps like eletric Circuit and Triathlon are so different that its not the normal.
In other words weird maps that no one knows makes people panic or do things they normally wouldn't do. I don't see how that means the better player wins.

I don't understand how hard it is to come up with a game plan like that. then you sit down and play 10-15 games and find out which you are most comfortable with. What weird maps like this do is find out who the actual better all around player is. Not only do you have to create builds and prepare, but you have to innovate and think outside the box. Sure he could have made it all fighting spirit but how many TvPs do you want to see open 1 gate FE vs Seige expand into fast third into a 3/2 timing push? Wow, finally someone defending the maps :D Thanks haha EDIT: Plus a lot of you are veterans of BW :/
I really have no problems with the maps at all. Except for Triathlon and Electric circuit. I am sorry but it's really effecting a lot of people in a negative way imo. It's no big deal really. I am just saying for next tourney it's ok to have different maps but these maps have a BGH feel to them imo.

The better player doesn't panic. The better player has a game plan. The better player studies not only his opponent but the maps. Not saying maps don't impact certain things like race distribution but playing on Longinus, Tau Cross, Fighting Spirit, Circuit Breaker, and Python is only so much fun.

Then we'll have to agree to disagree. Triathlon is literally the only map I've ever seen that I cannot stand. It's unplayable for me. I guess if I practiced it I could get better but I don't have time to practice one map that isn't like any other map o.o
Oh well enough on that map. We'll just agree to disagree.

C players have enough trouble executing standard builds on standard maps. This is supposed to be a regular C tourney not a "RIBBONS 2001-2005 BW MAPS TOUR!"

If you're going to have 1-2 odd maps for people who want to go out on their own and practice those builds then that's totally fine and acceptable, but when you have series starting (BY FAR the most important game in a bo3) on a map you've never played before in your life you end up practicing one gimmicky build and end up flustered because you're already nervous coming into a tournament situation and playing a completely different style of play on a map you barely know where the bases are.

Why do so many people feel entitled to whine about maps in the public tourney thread and not appeal to the host directly? I don't understand why anyone can't accept that maps chosen for a tournament are entirely up to the host of the tournament and it will undoubtedly leave a few people (usually the losers of Ro#) upset. That's life and you have to deal with it. I spent a lot of time studying BOs from progamer VODs and practicing on these wild maps and I still lost, and what I did was ask the host why I had to play on a certain map that I wanted to veto as my first map via PMs. Whining publicly about map X in match-up Y only hurts the motivation of the host to ever want to create a tournament like this again and I personally view it as a vocal minority trying to 'out' the admin as a poor one for a tournament. Despite my admitted displeasure at having to play Outsider PvT vs. dropship play as my necessitated match, I am very thankful for this tournament, and as such I feel that the tone many of you have taken is downright disrespectful to a person who nets 0 benefit from the running of this tournament besides knowing that they did something good for the community.
In short, I just want to say that we should all be a little more objective. This was a for-fun tournament for C ranks players, and if you lost/didn't like the maps, that's understandable. But is it such a big deal to be complaining about in the thread of a tournament that it still going on? I think not.
Just my 2 cents.

Umm the maps seem pretty fair to me o_o

I don't get what you're arguing here. You lose because you are unprepared both with your build and your familiarity with the map so we should use more conventional maps so that players who don't have the time or aren't willing to put in the effort to win have a better chance?
|
|
for a lot of people, it's not a matter of "not willing to put in the effort", i'm sure a lot of people would love to play bw a ton if they actually could...
|
Also, a lot of us are coming off a hiatus, props to people who played through PL droughts but I lost interest once the korea since hit the lull.
|
Lumire please also consider that some of us (even us who didn't make it to the ro16) enjoy playing and watching games on those maps alot.
And never in my life would I have thought to see someone whine over having to play on a map such as triathlon, that map is really really fun to play as you can do the whackiest cheeses, gas heavy standard play and expand like crazy.
And please don't tell me you don't have time to play on triathlon when I've seen you on for 4+ hours friday and saturday

to all who whine about map , this is my thought too

I found time to at least glance at the maps and decide what builds I wanted to do on each of them and I work 40 hours a week plus go to school full time. I really don't see the issue. It's the difference between glancing at these forums for 30 seconds or glancing at the map for 30 seconds. That's what separates players, not only the willingness but the ability to divide their time appropriately.

well shotcoder, some people just aren't that skilled tbh.. they learn slower and improve slower, it would literally be a brain advantage... there are different factors for other people, but someone like puppykiller or lumire i guarantee cannot look at a map they don't play on and know what exactly they want to do on it, this is what people have to take into account... everyone is on their side of the spectrum, they don't put themselves into the other shoes

It's not exactly hard to look at a map for 5 minutes to see what features you can take advantage of or builds you should do so you don't get abused.
The maps are fine, even if some of the maps are old, they're either played alot or have guarenteed interesting games in the past.

I'm ok with one weird map, but why do we have to have several weird maps? One weird maps should be enough to allow "creative players" to do their "creative shit". Multiple weird maps just harass's anyone with time constraints or people who spend most of there time practicing "standard play", which is not uncommon at low levels since practicing "standard play" tends to yield the best results for anyone planning to improve.
I don't intend any disrespect to Shimy. Every tourney organizer (even for the D leagues) has a boner for weird maps. What I find strange is that low level tourneys are supposed to be more for the sake of the players than the viewers. I mean, who honestly wants to watch a C player strain his ass off trying to pull off some half baked strat on a map with retarded pathfinding vs another C player doing another equally retarded home brewed, moonshine, Make Your Own Pizza!, build order, both having no idea how each others strat interacts with the others. It is a miserable experience preparing several maps for a tourney just to get your cock stasised by a mind controlled arbiter on triathlon and getting rolled by lings because your marines on electric circuit thought that you wanted them to worship dark templar at the temple by the mineral only rather then support there comrades attacking the zergs third base.
Once again I am not opposed to a small number (like 2 in a map pool of 8) of weird maps, but the tourney shouldn't be dominantly weird maps or almost standard maps with multiple imposing gimmicks that people are not used to being present in there practice. Its unpleasant to prepare for and it makes for ugly games.
|
imo C rank game nobody will want to see if its standard all the way so yeah weird strat is nicer to watch. weird map = train a player thinking process therefore improve the mentality a bit so playing a game with a strat in mind will make that player improve even faster.
my opinion ^^

Its unpleasant to prepare for and it makes for ugly games. I think the main problem is that all of the maps were not announced ahead of time, so that people who did not want to play on said maps would just not sign up, relieving the issue above. With this I can agree. I did enjoy your parables of your troubles LOL. I disagree with the rest, because I do also believe that a map pool of Python, FS, Desti over and over again would be boring. If everyone only wants to play/knows how to play standard, the creativity is lost.
Furthermore, each tournament deserves to be different. Some will reward certain styles of play, others will reward others. If your want for a tournament with the above constraints is so great, start your own!
Maps like Triathlon are definitely playable. You could have gone for a faster vessel + emp, or a dropship with goliaths and taken out all the free arbiters you could. He had to research mind control, get a DA, and then wait the relatively long period of time to get enough energy, and also get arbiter tech up the way one normally would and research stasis... It's a risky strategy, I know because I've done it myself. On Tau/Outsider, Protoss can get a faster shuttle instead of an earlier expansion. There are solutions to every problem, and yes sometimes execution will falter in the hands of a less experienced player, but that is why we have to practice, play smart, and be careful of map pathing.

I actually haven't been able to play my opponent because our times haven't matched up and now my computer that i play on decided to die. I'll probably end up installing SC on the laptop too

my opinion ^^
Practicing cheese builds will hardly improve a player's ability to cheese or improve the thinking they approach the game with. However, learning the mechanics of the game and manipulating them is what creates a strong cheese player. If you don't know the mechanics of the game and how you are forcing your opponent to feel uncomfortable and adapt to your build with strong mechanics, you are playing a coin flip game. In other words, you are hoping for a cheap win rather than having the ability to make a game plan that will literally force your opponent to be mechanically competent by employing different variations in your 'creative cheese strategy.' If you don't go through this process then your build is based on pure luck, you will not see long term improvements, and you're wasting both players time from the perspective of skill development. If you want to avoid the coin flip cheese approach then learning how the game works first by standard play, then by incorporating cheese strategies will yield consistent results and long term improvement as long as you can find opponents who are mechanically competent, which you probably won't find in a C rank tournament or even on iCCup. That being said, I also don't understand the map pool for this tournament and many other foreign tournaments at all levels.
|
Just to be clear one more time, I like a few weird maps. Just it would be a lot easier to prepare for them if their were a few "super standard" maps to balance them out. Maps that don't take much preparation.. That way we also get to put more effort into our preparation for the weird maps, and perhaps some of the odd strategies will be a bit better. No disrespect intended towards Shimy who I am very grateful towards for arranging this tourney .
|
Even though I hate most of these maps for various reasons (to be fair I hate most maps) , I don't think the map pool is really that bad.
In total there are 8 maps. Out of these, 4 are current PL maps, of which 1 you can make a case for being weird, but it's a PL map so it's k. Then there's 4 older maps, of which 2 I'd consider weird(Triathlon and Outsider). Tau Cross is standard enough and Destination was probably one of the most played maps pre-FS.
Ideally you'd have some experience playing on all the PL maps, not to mention that you can study off the current games being played on them. Tau Cross/Destination are common enough that you should have played them well enough. Triathlon and Outsider are wierd, but it's only 2 maps, of which you can veto one of them anyways so you can focus on the other.
I really don't think it's terrible.
Edit: I do feel however, that the map pool is too big. 8 map is quite a lot to think about, especially given the time in between matches(like a day). Even for OSL there isn't more than 4 maps, and PL has only around 6, but most players just practice on one.
|
So it looks like this tournament is moving right along, I enjoy being able to see games that are being played on these different maps, and I totally think that players having to play on maps they do not have a familiarization with is exciting and makes for more interesting games, just to shed a little light on my personal opinion of playing a lot of maps people aren't necessarily accustomed to playing, one time I was playing vs a korean player who was a lot better than me and we played on a lot of different maps I did not know, after losing all the games I was complaining about the maps and how I did not know them and so it made it harder for me to prepare and play good games vs him because of this, and what he told me was......"It's not the map, it's the player" , and I will never forget that. gl hf gg I hope the final sets of games are exciting to view.

Shotcoder:
Let's say two people are playing tennis to see who is the best but on the very first match they play on a tennis court that has obstacles they have to jump over, duck between and etc. According to your theory the better player would win because he won't panic and will prepare properly.
I hope you can see how that makes no sense.. The better player would be the one that would win on tennis courts that are standard. Also if the tennis player lost the first match he would probably be a little shaken up going into the next match knowing he's already down a match.
And if you still don't get the point I'll drive it home. I've seen people who are twice the skill level of someone else lose to that person in BGH. Who's better the person who can win on non-money maps or the person who only wins on money maps? Obviously it "could" be perception. However, as we know starcraft the player who won on non-money maps is obviously more skilled over all. Yet, according to you the better player would "adapt" and not "panic".
Also some people didn't know they were playing triathlon until less then 24 hours prior to scheduled playing time and the map was non-veto since it was the first map given.

I am not intending to disrespect shimy at all. I appreciate the tournament. The only reason I am saying more is because of people like shot coder bringing up arguments that make no sense.
How can you even begin to say that the better player would win on a non-standard map. That doesn't even make sense. It's like changing the basketball court and then saying "oh yeah the better team will win since this basketball court isn't a normal one"
LOL?

sigh
i'm saying that some people require more time than others to learn a new map. shotcoder works a 40hour job and goes to school and can still competently play on these maps that most people don't play on regularly. obviously he learns them fast or has played them in the past.
there are 24 hours in a day and everyone has lives to tend to, whether it be a job, school, sleep, what ever, but the point is that learning new maps makes it difficult for other people.
if you want to look at it as them being better players, then go for it. i look at it as an advantage in a learning process in general.

Kevin (1004) is correct. When it comes to Starcraft, I have my share of retardations! I blame my Caucasian heritage.

So Jealous, your of the opinion that the better tennis player would win if the tennis court was filled with obstacles to jump over as opposed to the standard tennis court? lol...
Naybe you don't feel as harsh towards Triathlon but to me it's so different that I think it's a fair comparison. You have literally 5 expansions on top of each other. The natural is so small and clumped. The map looks sloppy. Eggs to kill with arbiter hiding them. I could go on and on the map isn't even close to a standard map.
So saying the better player wins on non-standard is no different then the tennis court analogy.

No. I'm saying that both people have the option of learning the details of the court beforehand, and if one player learns them better than the other, then he is a better player given the constraints of the tournament. In a different tournament on a different court, he might be inferior. But given the constraints, he is superior.
This argument is pretty pointless.

Thinking about it, a better format woulda been like:
Both players veto one(or two maps). First map gets chosen out of non-veto'd map. Next maps are picked by last loser.
But it's kinda late now.

my opinion ^^ Practicing cheese builds will hardly improve a player's ability to cheese or improve the thinking they approach the game with. However, learning the mechanics of the game and manipulating them is what creates a strong cheese player. If you don't know the mechanics of the game and how you are forcing your opponent to feel uncomfortable and adapt to your build with strong mechanics, you are playing a coin flip game. In other words, you are hoping for a cheap win rather than having the ability to make a game plan that will literally force your opponent to be mechanically competent by employing different variations in your 'creative cheese strategy.' If you don't go through this process then your build is based on pure luck, you will not see long term improvements, and you're wasting both players time from the perspective of skill development. If you want to avoid the coin flip cheese approach then learning how the game works first by standard play, then by incorporating cheese strategies will yield consistent results and long term improvement as long as you can find opponents who are mechanically competent, which you probably won't find in a C rank tournament or even on iCCup. That being said, I also don't understand the map pool for this tournament and many other foreign tournaments at all levels.
yeah , weird strat = force your opponent to employ different variation while you are somehow in advantage. example we may think scout is a useless unit but some still use Scout for a purpose but of course it wont work on pro level. i am not talking about cheese lol , example will be jaedong vs Snow on Triathlon , is so different that is entertaining. so thats my point , not practicing all in bunker rush , 4 pool etc..

ATTENTION!
The cast is getting ready to start!!! Be sure to tune in here! Stream

we we we so excited! we so excite! we gonna watch broodwar today!!!

neko T_T the first z v z haha

I really would like a grudge match with ShotCoder bo7 (says he was on the phone and he could win a BO7)
Also a grudge match with Lumire BO7 (Noones boy and noone thinks I am super chobo)
Also a grudge match with fold ( asking how do people let me win since I am so chobo).
If Sayle or Noone/ someone else would be willing to cast this. To spice things up I will even be willing to put some money on the line if they win (IE: probably paypal).
EDIT: I reserve the right to use some hotkeys. I normally use none but I do know a few.
I won't mention this anymore until tourney is over though as I don't want to take any spotlight every from that. Just want to see if anyones interested.
g'night

I said I was on the phone but I never said I would win a BO7 but I will gladly accept a BO7 grudgematch as long as it is casted. I'd be willing to throw a little bet on the table as well. We can discuss everything when the tour is over so you can focus on what cheese you will perform in the RO8. =P
btw you better win.

I'm guessing kinda like CPL back in the day where there will be teams of 6-8 players playing each other PL style.
I would actually love there to be another CPL since this time I could actually coach...

I'll just post here since I don't know where else to ask:
for some reason I can't watch twitch.tv streams with few viewers (I assume that it depends on the amount of viewers, sayle's stream just worked fine)...anybody got the same problem? Maybe it's a german / european problem? Or is it me?

I'm staying on one screen too much? That's new. Guess I've gone to far the other way because for quite a while everyone was telling me I was overly clicky and too spastic.

Someone said this in chat earlier and I agree, you need to click on the units during the early battles more imo. To check health and etc. Otherwise I think you are pretty good with keeping up with the action, from my games at least. I think maybe check the minimap a little more often to flash to expansions as they come up and etc. Overall you do a great job, thanks!

If puppykiller makes round of four, that is like the equivalent of being the Modesty of this tournament.

SUPER EPIC AWESOME NEWS!
Lumire is super awesome and doesn't want to win his Ro8 with a w.o. so he's gonna play Probe right now! Probe had some internet issues earlier, but now it's all better.
Why am I telling you this?
BECAUSE! Freaking Snipin_Panda and LRM)nOoNe are casting it on Panda's channel right now! Tune in for the epicness that is about to happen.

I enjoyed watching last night, I think that what they were saying on improvement is if you click the minimap more to jump screen and see what's going on opposed to clicking on the screen or scrolling (which looks less clean)

Sorry that me and panda's game are so late. We tried playing yesterday but the lag was really abysmal. The coffee shop was really busy with people watching videos of lonelyprobe carefully shoving twinkies up into his anus in such a way as to not to allow them to erupt into a creamy explosion until his ass had consumed at least 7.
We will play the other two games today.

iam really sorry to bring this up again but sl]..puppyklr- has extremely bad mannered me. I hate bm players. He showing off reps of friendly games and cheesing me in friendly practice games.
I want a BO7 match vs this kid almost as much as shotcoder and lameire( aka lumire ).
This is my official challenge so you can either take it or dodge puppyklr And yes I have so many grudgematches because theres so many bm noobs that always have to bm and trash talk my skill AKA LUMIRE,FOLD, SHOTCODER AND NOW PUPPYKLR

he cheesed once in game 3, played completely standard in games 1 and 2. and i liked your 6gate all in in game 2.

First off they were casted by noone at one point, and second why would you want to watch those abortions we call games?

I checked the twitch.tv account of L_master, but none of the RO16 videos contain that games. I enjoy watching you lose, especially in a manner you don't enjoy :D
