Why was said experience not satisfactory? Was it because of the map pool that time as well? Maybe this time this tournament could be different. Your opinion could be very constructive but instead you just spilled out random shit out of your ass. | ||

In the past, in a tournament I participated in, they had a very similarly organized strict schedule for matches to be played. Of course, real life happens, and admins allowed matches to be delayed, which caused rounds to be played much before others, leaving more conflicting scheduling issues. The tournament was delayed weeks, and eventually teams lost interests because the deadlines for matches and hours matches were to be played were insignificant. In addition, admin support for tournaments has been lacking and contacting an admin took much longer than it should have. In this tournament already, you have 3 of the worst maps in the game in the pool, without any 4 player maps (LT, Metal, Kulas). On top of that, they plan to end the tournament days before Beta is supposed to be brought down, meaning any delays in the tournament will cause it not to be finished. Edit: Forgot to mention they didn't pay out their prizes. | ||

Seems to be some simply incorrect information here. A. CEVO pays out it's prizes. If you had/have an issue with a prize you would to contact Charlie Plitt the president of cevo at cplitt@cevo.com B. The CMN3 Anti Cheat Client works great. Since I have worked with CEVO I have personally been involved in disputes where CMN has caught dozens of cheaters for dozens of different games. It's not an automatic kick you out of the game client. The review of the client is done after the fact and players are banned all the time in every game we run. This is not mearly a screenshot client. It has access to detect any cheat in existence and is updated on a sometimes nearly daily basis as we find new cheats. Often we are even capable of catching people with cheats for earlier matches when we didn't know the cheat existed at the time. Will I say that it catches 100% of everything, no there is nothing that does. C. As you all have said this is a First for CEVO. CEVO was founded way after Starcraft came out and was founded on FPS games. That doesn't mean CEVO doesn't have an interest in RTS games, that couldn't be further from the truth. What they have been lacking is someone to push it into CEVO, which Starcraft II and myself has rectified. D. CEVO does listen to the community. I / We are not under the impression that we know the best way to do everything. I will openly admit this is the first time I have ran a Starcraft II competition. The majority of CEVO admins are actually volunteers and are gamers like yourself that want to help out and make a difference. Yes any of you can apply and help out with events and help plan them. Just goto the website and click apply on the bottom right. E. If you have a problem get support. CEVO has it, we are known for it. There is someone on our vent support almost everyday of the week but especially Sundays - Thursdays from about 8pm to about 1am EST. In addition we have the support ticket system with tickets responded to within 24-48 hours in most cases. | ||
