WCG is a joke.

Don't even bother to boycott it. I can't believe this "issue" with Destination and Medusa. Every player in the whole world play the iCCup versions which work perfectly. What's wrong with theses guys?

They can't open them with map editor so they probably figured out they were laggy. hahahaha

The problem is the map signature. If you remove the map signature (i.e that little blizz icon onthe map) you will suddenly be able to create a game on any map in WCG mode.

TBH, ask some friendly players on BWMN.net to copy the maps to a editable format so WCG can use them or something. I dont think anyone can claim copyright on a SC map anyway

well logically their tracker probably wouldnt note the game in that case... I dont really understand what you're getting at tbh. If you had the tracker set to, for example, only UMSmode maps, you would still need a signature on the map or you could theoretically win the online preliminaries by constantly playing evolves.

what?
just set it to check for one vs one mode
if 2 people who both have gamon on play a one vs one then it records the result.
wgt used to work that way i think, before blizzard fucked it all up

As honorable as it is i don't see the point in boycutting.

Honestly it just doesn't seem like the organizers would care all that much? (Since they don't seem to care much at all)

As of right now, WCGZONE GamOn Launcher has been updated to include automatic support for LAN Latency. Currently, it makes all games default to LAN Latency (L=2)

Please test it and let us know how well it works on your system. and if there are any features that we should include, such as the variable Latency. (making room name ending with _L3 gives Latency 3).

If you already have WCGZONE GamOn, just start it and it will automatically update. If you do not have the client, you can download it at http://file.wcgzone.com/WCGZoneInst_080602a.exe.

Please make sure the Release Version of GamOn Launcher reads
# GamOn 2.1 Launcher : Release Version 2.1.0.3 (Apr 23 2009 14:02:30)

We've had some machines which didn't update properly. As you all probably know, every machine needs to set same latency so everyone needs to be running GamOn or it will desync and the game will not work properly.

Thanks!

any rational person couldnt argue with those problems.
my favortie was the different lists of the map pools. bad maps is one thing, but conflicting lists that mess with peoples practicing?
how that was just rediculous.

Yes, but in that way there still isnt any control what map is being used. Just by toggling one on one mode doesnt mean that previously mentioned four maps are the only ones selectable to play on.

Think of it as the old Blizzard ladder. When you picked Ladder mode you could only play maps with a ladder signature, as added on certain maps (ex Lost Temple), thus there was some kind of control what map was played. Its the exact same thing here. When you play in WCG mode, only maps with this certain blizzard signature can be played. And this signature is added by a special version of Staredit, one which cannot open locked korean pro maps.

Its remarkably simple really. If you just read what i actually write you wont have to restate your question all the time. its already been answered back and forth...
