Combat - lol o WoW Level Race - lost all respect when I saw this one I want to stress that this is not a serious SC tournament like WCG and what not. That goes for the other games too. We play popular games on campus, not games which are more respected by esports. Besides, the chances of us actually doing the WoW tournament are slim to none. | ||

Like I'm just wondering what I should practice beforehand. I don't want to be practicing Python/Tau/Longinus and show up and everyone is playing BGH or Fastest. Edit: Just for clarification I guess I wouldn't mind if BGH or Fastest was in the map pool but then it'd be auto win for low money players because everyone knows BGH/Fastest players have no talent. | ||

* Single Elimination * Players decide on map * 32 player cap * Final map, best 2/3 * Players must save replays for discrepancies * Games must be played on fastest speed That's really it. As far as the map pool goes, their isn't a set map pool. If two players decide that they want to play on BGH they can, however both players must agree on the map. We've so far never had any problems with this system (this is the third tournament now). I personally hate fastest maps like BGH also, and so far I haven't ever had to play on it. People have though in the past. We've never had any disputes on the map used, but if it happens just give me a shout. Now, if you really enjoy maps like Python, Blue Storm, Tau and other custom maps, I would suggest you put them on a flash drive before the event so you can put the maps on your opponents computers easily. I will have them on mine, but i'll be running around getting other players settled, so it would be faster for you to do it yourself. | ||

Their aren't very many rules actually: * Single Elimination * Players decide on map * 32 player cap * Final map, best 2/3 * Players must save replays for discrepancies * Games must be played on fastest speed Final map, best 2/3? Do you mean final round? So is every game a best of 3 or just the finals? Best of 1 scares me. I'm glad though that it says play on fastest and save replays. Even WCG this year couldn't handle that, like what the fuck lol. Although no one really listened to what WCG had to say about playing on "Faster" speed setting. From my understanding you register for tournaments at the door, right? I believe I read this starts at noon and ends midnight - is dat rite? I wanna make sure I get in at the right time so I can win dat prize. | ||

http://gallery.acm.pct.edu/main.php/v/BYOC-Spring08/ For what to bring, i would refer to this link: http://byoc.acm.pct.edu/whattobring I would bring a mousepad, even if you don't usually use one its nice to have just in case your mouse doesn't work on our tables. Besides, their fairly easy to carry around and are cheap as hell. | ||
