Welcome everyone to the totally unbiased ultimate hype thread for the ultimate showmatch! The battle this time will be between the challenger, the violent, antagonistic Master of Chips, also known as Shelkelp, and his cuddly but also potentially ferocious adversary, Frudgey!
Coming Saturday, Aug 23 1:00am GMT (GMT+00:00)
Stream link is twitch.tv/ghandieagle
+ Show Spoiler [The History] +Shelke, being an angry person, wildly challenges resident Euro Scipaeus to a Starcraft 1v1 match, the loser getting a 30-day ban. Scip, being amiable enough to not want bans on either side, balked on the challenge. Shelke then took his uncontrollable rage into the Off-Topic thread, challenging anyone who dared to step up and 1v1 him bro. Frudgey has stepped up to the plate as the bold challenger daring to fight against the brutal oppression that is Shelke's verbal abuse. The date was set. The time was right.
The Stakes:
- A brutal 30-day Ban delivered personally by MoonBear
- An Arcade MF skin from me (Doesn't matter whether you own the champion)
- A small souvenir from Lesotho, and a formal challenge, both from JonGalt.
- (For Frudgey) his choice of any 40k model painted by Requizen, pictures on OT included.
- (For Shelke) Req will buy only Lay's Chips in solidarity. And also should call up Shelke's boss and tell him how dashing Shelke is
- Whatever else people want to thrown in (RP, Money, Steam games, etc.) Make it hype, people!
The Format:
- A Starcraft 2 Bo7.
- The first map is selected by me, and for the rest of the matches, the loser will select from the map pool
- There is no banning of maps
- Each map may only be played once
- The loser is allowed one Goodbye Post on the thread of his choice before being banned
The Maps!
The starting map will be: Cloud Kingdom!

Here are the maps in the selection pool! + Show Spoiler [The Map Pool] +Heavy Rain Daybreak Tal'Darim AltarDerelict Watcher Antiga Shipyard Alterzim Stronghold Star Station The Shattered Temple![[image loading]](http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/images2/thumb/e/e4/The_Shattered_Temple.jpg/400px-The_Shattered_Temple.jpg)
The Players:
Shelkelp Hailing from someplace in the pacific northwest region of Canada, Shelke will be playing the icky Zerg race. He is the master of chips, and all-around a very rude person. He is player #1!
Frudgey Famous for donating $100 to Wave's stream and being an all-around teddy bear, this Canadian will be the respectable, noble Terran as player #2!
Remember, as Frudgey once said,
While it amuses me that you are spreading propaganda on my behalf, we need to remember that Shelke is human too, and certainly not the villain in this case. I came up to Shelke and accepted his ban match, he didn't pressure me to do so at all. I accepted his challenge out of my own free will. If Shelke defeats me and consumes the essence of my soul, then so be it. I have accepted my fate at this point.
Commentary: Wave and Soniv have decided to cast some games. Scip and I are also gonna cast a few. Losleb is looking for a partner, if one more person wants to be his partner and cast some games, PM me!

You need a head/heart poll, Ghandi. Are you too young to have known that or something? Also supporting Frudgey because Terran.

OP totally not biased at all

I really did consider Steppes of War. But then I rediscovered my dignity.
|
I remembered Steppes of War is a thing, and now I feel sad. Thanks guys..
|
How we add Steepes and just give Frudge a 1-0 start and just ignore that it's in the map pool instead?
|
This is like watching the Stanley Cup playoffs, just both teams dont have a jersey representing an american city.
|
Shelke has said that Friday may or may not work for him so we should probably get confirmation from him before we get too excited here.
Also I'm liking the map pool quite a bit. Good work Ghandi!

I've updated the OP so the date and time automatically updates to display itself in your timezone if you're logged in since trying to convert PST for non-PST people can be irritating.

Gimme my Shakuras Plateau back, dammit. The hype is pretty damn real though. Also, how good are chips and cuddles? Are we gonna watch silvers or master players going at it?
|
Chips and Cuddles both haven't played for a long time, but are practicing. Chips was diamond and Cuddles was gold. Hopefully they both PRACTICE A LOT *cough*

I expect cheese in all games and dirty punches to be thrown. None of this "Honest game" bullshit you canadas are known for.

1) I will personally donate one small authentic Lesotho souvenier to the winner of this glorious civil canadian war.
2) In four months time I formally challenge the winner.
3) A LR would be much appreciated.

Chips will clog the cute, fluffy, stuffed arteries of Cuddles. He'll never have a chance.

will you be able to stream? Asking cuz you just moved, I'd rather your stream get the visibility if you can, and I'm still not convinced of the reliability of my stream.

Well, there's certainly one way to get known =P

30 days is so harsh too... I love both chips and fudge... Is there no way it can be reduced to two weeks?
In theory I can stream, but of course it depends on when this is actually happening, as well as how my new setup works. If I'm not overly exhausted over the next few nights I'll do some tests. Also will depend on whether talking is going to wake up the guy now that the computer is closer to his room.
And lol stream exposure. Appreciate it but you deserve it just as much as I do.

And lol stream exposure. Appreciate it but you deserve it just as much as I do. I think a 30 day ban is much more exciting than a two week ban. With a 30 day ban there is much more on the line so Shelke and I will be trying that much harder to win. And with that, we're going to get matches where the moral boundaries of gameplay will be crossed and we'll see some truly underhanded tactics. This leads to more interesting matches for the spectators.
I understand the sentiment Wave, and I appreciate it (<3) but I think it will be for the better if we do a 30 day ban.
|
I want to cheer for Frudgey but I also am Zerg...
Frudges if you win I will paint one of my remaining 40k models of your choice as detailed as I can.
Shelke if you win I'll only buy Lay's chips in solidarity.
|
So long as the loser gets a good bye post. I'm ok with 30 day bans.
|
That's a good point actually. I'll miss one of yuu guys , but if you're doing it for the glory that is TL then that's ok of course.
Edit: lol damn the stakes are getting higher every day. I propose the good-bye post has to be in the form of a girlblog or something equally hilarious.

Oh and I realized something else. If we're doing multiple casting teams, maybe we should just use a communal stream so people don't have to keep switching back and forth?

Did anyone ever end up setting up a community twitch account? That's not a bad idea.

That way everyone gets to show off their twitch handles, ppl don't have to bother setting up access to another stream and people don't have to switch between streams.

Oh yeah I forgot about host mode. Well we'll figure it out...we did make a communal stream but if people can't/won't find it for whatever reason mine (+host) might make more sense if only because of # of followers.
And no guys, I can't do 5PST/8EST. 6/9 would like be the earliest I can do. If you want to go ahead without me that's fine, it's not my ban match after all

Of course I'm joking, I'm good for whatever time. It would be nice if Wave could join us though, so I'm more than willing to do 6 pm pst. Of course if Shelke absolutely must do 5 pm pst then I'm okay with that as well. I have some flexibility Friday evening so any time shouldn't be a problem.
I guess it boils down to what works for Shelke and if he wants to wait up for Wave. And I would think that he'd want to, considering how badly I scorned Wave the other day! I'm quickly becoming the villain of this ban match as Shelke is quickly becoming the hero!

Just pointing out that the difference between 5pst and 6-7 pst is pretty big for europeans :p
|
6pm is fine. Was just throwing it out there. I want wave to be there. 6 it is.
|
|
|
I would certainly assume so
|
Old Jeff, wave and I wondering - how often are we going to switch streamers/casters? We're thinking we're gonna use his account as the host account, and then switch to hosting another stream (yours? scips?) when we switch casters
|
We both have the stream key, right? So we can have one person turn off the stream and the other group turns it back on. Since you have the key multiple people stream on the account right? Should only take 1-2 seconds. Was probably gonna alternate every 2 games or something like that.
Or did I misunderstand the question?
|
We're thinking of using Wave's as the host account (courtesy of killerdog) so that we don't have to keep ending the stream when we switch. We're gonna experiment with it tonight I think to see how it works.

I can't make it but YOU CAN DO IT FRUDGEY!!! I would watch the games with the strength of a thousand viewers if I could!!!
Totally unbiased friend.

Busy tonight but I'll leave the stream page open for viewership. Frudgey hwaiting
|
Wait is it at 6 or 7 pm PST? And totally hyped for it if I don't fall asleep.
|
It is at 6 pm PST.
Also, thank you Rafier for your kind words. With friends like you I don't need anyone else!
<3
|
But doesn't the OP say otherwise or am I just bad at converting times?
|
OP displays your time. Just look there.
|
OP says 7 PST (shows me 10 PM) - I'm just assuming Old Jeff sucks at making posts
it should be 6 PST
|
Came across Lay's vending machine in the subway. A sign?
Didn't realise it was 4 AM and not 2 AM for us Euros, guess I'lll look at the VoDs (better not get them muted Wave!), I have way too much sleep to catch up to in barely 2 nights.
|
Maybe I suck at math. I typed it as 18:00 in the thing, it comes up with 7:00 PM for some reason. It's changed now though.
|
I have a feeling that everyone is going to miss our games due to nobody being able to decide what time Shelke and I were actually playing. And then what's going to happen is that Shelke and I will quietly play our games with no audience, and then just depart. You guys are going to miss the whole thing!
|
At the very least, you will have 1 drunk Soniv watching
|
Or two, depending on how blurry Soniv's vision gets. Maybe three.

Okay I'm good to go. Let me know when you guys get on so that I can be added to some lobbies or what have you. This is going to be good!
