Man this would've given me(and possibly many others)to play and practice again in the few weeks of summer break that's left  Isn't that part of what ur trying to achieve tho to be a part of keeping this game alive? I still haven't switched to sc2 yet becuz I really really like BW(havent played not one game of sc2 + read my quote even tho it's outdated now T_T)..and tourneys like these makes me wanna play again but u set that skill requirement edit: can i play with my offrace or something at least cuz I can honestly say I meet the skill requirements then. | ||

Second How can you call this a Yellow Starleague if you're going to make an arbitrary cut off at 5,500? | ||

TelecoM has no recorded stats of over D+ on www.iccup.com The main advantage for people like LML is they have the knowledge and experience of being a higher rank, so even if he's rusty he can easily play with friends/clanmates and re-gain what he lost before the ladder stage finishes giving him a huge advantage for group level(let's be honest, if you are above B-, to get back to B- takes like 2days esp if protoss) and I assume the cut off thing is so there is less grey areas of people who are B- and such but claim they are high C+ just to play in the tour. From what I saw in the ASL, it was clear that Rush was not in the C rank level. (considering he offraced the ladder then switched for tour play is also really shady for a $ tour) | ||

This is kind of a pointless cut off. And Rush is in the C ranks. He was shown to be beatable in every aspect as was Wands even though he's hit B- and beaten players like Alfio. | ||

Sorry for the confusion :pFor the tournament stages, I'm going to ask all the race-pickers to announce the races they will be playing. This means you will have to pick which match-ups you think will be good for you during the tournament stage beforehand, so keep this in mind please.

Also, how do you know if all these ppl are truley C- to C+? What I'm saying is they may not have a "B- or higher" recorded on iccup but they might play more on fish or just never played on iccup and played mostly on west or something but are very good.

I appreciate your thoughts and concerns. Our sponsor was clear about wanting to host a tournament for C-/C/C+ rank players though. For players like yourself and LML, there are higher-level leagues where you can play - such as the defiler tours, which come around every 2 weeks or so. There is still plenty of reason to practice and continue to enjoy StarCraft, including the competitive aspects of the game. As for our counter-abuse methods, I say how we are going to be monitoring potential cheaters, but I can give my assurances that this tournament will be run responsibly and fairly. Thanks for your comment, and I hope you can continue to enjoy StarCraft: BroodWar despite unfortunately not being eligible for this tournament. | ||

The purpose of this thread is not to discuss how you disagree with the rules of the tour. I'm going to ask that you take up any further concerns or disagreements into private messages and not derail this thread, because the rules aren't going to change, regardless of whether or not you agree with them. | ||

Alright so PMs I have recieved about rule changes has no relevance in this thread? Edit: I would also like to take my concerns out publicly so my words aren't twisted like certain PMs of mine were in previous conversations. | ||

Though I think it should be: First place:  Second place:  Third place:  Anyway in tournament formats, second place is also the only place/medalist to lose before getting the award hehe. I mean that much is obvious but I've always thought that was sort of interesting. Go out and give us some good games y'all (especially toss. gogo)! | ||
