And that's great to hear FlashFTW, I replied to your PM as well.

And just a heads up, I'm signing up everyone for the Stargate Cup right now (the highest level one), and so far we're at 10 participants (in 5 hours, 6 days still remaining). If we exceed 16, sign-ups will go to the Robotics cup which can have up to 32 people. If you feel like you're not a starcraft gosu (yet), and would rather play with people closer to your skill level in the Robotics Cup, let me know (or change it yourself on the wiki page).

Maybe people could post iccup ranks or something here? and that way we have a good way of feeling each other out for which cup we'd like to be in?


Yeah, which cup we'd like to be in depends on a lot on popularity. Like I don't think for now there will even be a gateway cup... I'd like to think there will be around 30 players for the first one. I know the rough skill level of more or less everyone who signed up so far, but I feel like first come first serve is best just for now.

As a rough guideline though, from what I'm seeing, C- and above should probably be in Stargate, and D+ or lower in Robotics, but we will let the results speak for themselves... And it will fix itself in the course of 1 to 2 events.

yeah the tournament itself will automatically self determine with 1 or 2 players getting BO wins via cheese or whatnot but otherwise I agree. I was just saying maybe make it easier for the first cup anyways to sort players based upon skill

Yeah, I tried to make the format as much as "play a lot of games before you're eliminated"... But yeah, I considered it, but at the end of the day didn't think from the people I know on SB it'd be necessary. Either way, I suppose it's a bit late now, though people are welcome to post their ranks from other servers if they like!

Some crazy good people in this tournament already. Going to have to actually hardcore practice for this. I'm definitely going to get demoted to robotics until I can up my skill, but I will become top 3 in this tournament by summer of 2017. hear me now.

iiN.Arubar, Robotics Cup, D+ Protoss.

And I hope the few D/D+ players currently in the Stargate cup will swap their spots with better players, if any more sign up. Will be better for the tournament.
For Aiur!

Yeah, wow, really good people signed up. Probably like 3-4 people that would be better off in Robotics Cup, but that's okay.

Hopefully some of the more normal people come and play in Robotics Cup now.

Anyway, registrations for Stargate cup are now closed, unless anyone withdraws or chooses to play in Robotics Cup.

At this point take who you can get and it'll balance out.

I'd join but I'm going through some personal life crap (divorce) but once that's all cleared up maybe I'll join in.
So wait? I'm bad? =(

Everything is still going according to schedule!

Thank you to the couple of people who PM'ed me about volunteering, very appreciated

As for a status update, we have 16 people signed up for the Stargate Cup, and 6 signed up for the Robotics Cup... Hoping we can get 10 more sign-ups and do 16 players in both tournaments, so come play if you're still on the edge! The groups will be generated with a random draw roughly 30-60 minutes before the start of the tournament.

For the party animals living in NA, remember that it's in the morning on New Years Day, so have your alarm clocks set... And be sure you can make it if you're signed up, thanks
