MorroW won the second Open Wolf Cup!
HuK played a very nice second.
See you guys next time.
Replay packs:

Some of these overlap and I did not list the individual replays because I'm simply too busy right now, but extract them into your replay folder and you can tell just by scrolling over them which games are inside. If someone wants, they can make a more organised pack, but I'm very busy tonight.
Note: If you're a player and wondering where your replay is, try to remember who was casting and go to that pack.
Thanks all,
Wolf
::
Hello, everyone! I'm going to be hosting the second Open Wolf Cup on 11 July 2010. This tournament is open to all players, regardless of rank/ladder standing. It will take place on the US servers (sorry EU/Asia, blame Blizzard) and may actually have a prize pool (TBA).
If you are interested in taking part in this open tournament, email verdruss@gmail.com with your character name you will use when the beta returns, race, and realID email. If you don't want to email me, feel free to PM me instead. Alternatively, you could post your information in the thread, but that's harder to keep track of (and you don't want to get misplaced).The tournament will have 64 players, but continue to sign up, as last tournament we had about ten or fifteen backups needed. Keep watching this thread, as it will be updated with important information very regularly.
SIGNUPS ARE CLOSED However, there is still a possibility that you will be able to play if you show up on time. If you are a selected backup, when you join the IRC, make your nickname with a backup tag (ex: smith_backup). If you want to play, but aren't selected as a backup, make your nickname with an alternate tag (ex: smith_alt). Alternates are less likely to show up than actual tournament participants, so if you really want to play, it can't hurt to show up.
This tournament will take place on the US Servers on Sunday 11 July, at 3:00 PM, EST (GMT -5).
Prize Pool: $50 (unless I get donations before Sunday)
Thank Ipp for his donation! He's another SC2 caster that you guys should check out.
Bracket is posted! (subject to change):

Casting:
So far (round one):
Ipp casting KawaiiRice v Prophet
SirazTV casting HuK v MoMaN
Pull casting CheAse v Zelniq
Rules:
Until the semifinals, this tournament will be played in single-elimination rounds. At the semifinals, a best-of-three will be played, and the finals will be a best-of-five set. Many players will probably disagree with this, but it's for the sake of time. Unfortunately this tournament would be FAR too long if the sets were longer for elimination. If a player fails to show up for his match, he will lose by default (as of now). Future tournaments will be structured differently, especially invitationals.
In the single-elimination rounds, the maps available will be Lost Temple, Steppes of War, and Blistering Sands. Both players can eliminate one map, and the remaining map will be played. As for the semifinals and finals, the maps available will be Lost Temple, Steppes of War, Scrap Station, Metalopolis, and Kulas Ravine. Both players can eliminate two maps from that list. Every time a player loses, they will be able to pick the next map to be played.
This tournament will be race-restricting, so once you pick a race, you cannot swap during the tournament. However, if you'd like to change races before the tournament begins, contact me and let me know.
Tournament Procedure:
Essentially, at 2:30 PM EST, I would like ALL players to join my IRC channel (see http://thepassingshadow.com/IRC_Chat.html ). Players will use their exact character name as their nickname in IRC (put an underscore afterwards if there are problems with the nick being taken, which can sometimes happen with connection errors). The bracket will be posted so that players can see who their first opponents are. Once in IRC, players should find their opponents and PM them (/msg <username> <message> ) and start sending realID information so that they can add each other as friends. After that, the players should enter a party with one another, do map eliminations to decide which map they will be playing on (see map rules below), and then wait for me to tell everyone to begin their first match (will happen around 3 PM EST). What happens if your opponent does not show up ? PM me in IRC letting me know, and I will either replace your opponent with someone on the waiting list or let you know that you will receive a lucky free win (bye) and will wait for the second round to begin.
After I announce in IRC to begin, all 32 parties will play their first game. Whenever someone finishes their first game, the WINNER will PM me on IRC, specifying both who won and who lost. Once all groups of players have sent me the winners and losers, and EVERY game of the first round is finished, the second bracket will be posted and players will once again PM each other with realIDs and join parties. Once everyone appears to be set up, the second round will begin, and once again, the WINNER will PM me on IRC with both the winner and the loser. This will repeat until the semifinals.
The first two players I choose to commentate will play first, and I will add them as realID friends, and invite them to my party. In party chat, map will be decided, and the first game will begin, and I will commentate. The round will be a best out of three with counter-picks for maps, and then the next players will play. After that, the two finalists will choose maps again, and the same procedure will take place with me commentating, except with a best of five. Afterwards, the winner will be announced and everyone will be free to ask for rematches, etcetera etcetera, ask me questions in chat.
What happens in a dispute over who won the match ? I will add one of the players' realIDs, and look at match history. If there is a further dispute, I will ask for the replay file.

Note: Dates are subject to change due to Blizzard's lack of structure during the beta, and map pool is also subject to change based upon feedback and other factors.

Don't make it the same date as the Micro/Macro tournament then a bunch of people can't sign up or even watch it.

I think that tournament is going to take place over a few days, so there may be some overlap. There's no dates set for that tournament either (as far as I know).

Sounds amazing Shadow!! I will try and participate in this with you. I've never been in an IRC channel so this should be interesting !

Just a question, can I be a race chooser and play tvp

If you choose Terran, you have to stay as Terran.
At this point, looks like you'll be playing mainly TvP, since it seems that only Protoss players are interested in this tournament. Hahaha

I saw it in OP. so... who's right?

it also says "32 parties" in OP... but i guess the OP wouldn't draw up 64 slots for nothing ... ^.^ guess its going to be a rather massive tournament..
someone should remake Triple Strike!

I don't even know what that link is. This is a 64 person tournament.
32 parties = Everyone with their opponent, ready to go

That is actually a link for another tournament that just opened up today. My apologies Its very confusing to have so many tournaments on the board that get flipped around everywhere... ^.^

Sent through PM. Hope I get in

Two Questions here after a bit of rereading
1. Who are the reserved slots for?
Edit: NVM, I skipped right over the map pool XP

1. Reserved slots are for well-known players who I would like to participate in the tournament, and told me they'd try to, and I'm waiting to hear back from them (ex: Sheth, KawaiiRice).
2. Incineration zone is going to be taken off. I know a ton of people hate it, and I agree that it's slightly imbalanced. Probably will take it off in just a second. Otherwise, look at the pool listed in rules. We may see some new maps, depending on if Blizzard adds them into the Beta. I don't plan on using Fighting Spirit or Chupung because I don't think they have been scaled appropriately for StarCraft II.

Posted the listing; I know there are a few 'reserved' slots that will be closed tonight (so if you registered already, pretty early, there's still a decent chance for you to get in). As for backups, I'll be posting about 25 people for that tonight as well (I think). So just keep staying tuned to the thread. Sending out email notifications for this stuff just gets too taxing.
Brackets will also be posted fairly soon.
OH, and about stars.. I'll be updating those later too. I'm just realllllly busy in the 'external world' today, doing things like mowing the yard etcetera; that's why I'm being so slow at this.
Thanks everyone!

If they are putting in chat channels for the 2nd phase of the beta, you may be able to use them to help organize the tournament when it is run.
|
There most likely wont be chat channels in the 2nd phase of the beta since it wont even been in by launch so I would not suspect it.

I DEMAND THIS LITTLE STAR BE TAKEN AWAY FROM MY NAME IMMEDIATELY
i used all caps to emphasize the anger i feel when i see this little twinkle of doom

Huk deserves no star. If anything, he should have a negative star. A moon.

I think you should add what realm you need to have

Nah, you're famous. And if anyone doesn't know it, I want them to know it.

Oh, and backup stuff is going to get posted sometime in the middle of Wednesday.. I got swamped with stuff to do at home tonight and wasn't able to quite finish. Same thing goes for brackets. Still waiting on a few people to reply, so we'll see who gets the last few 'reserved' spots. If your name doesn't show up immediately in the backup list, be patient. It probably will. And if it never does, well, try to sign up fast for the third Open Wolf Cup that will take place two weeks after this one. There will be many, many OWCs to join, so never feel like you 'missed a chance'.

Hello sent you a pm

Thanks for the invite. Looking forward to it.

Updated with backups; brackets should be posted tonight; it'll be pretty easy now that everything's getting finalised.
My only concern at this point is the beta schedule... Let's hope things run in our favour. If they don't, I'll have to push the tournament back two weeks, because the following weekend I'll be out of town. I could RUN the tournament, but not cast, and I don't want to really do that. So.. Let's keep our fingers crossd.

Thanks! I actually meant to star MoMan, but forgot. I didn't know about SLush, Capoch, or Wilko though. I appreciate you bringing it to my attention.

Thanks for posting the bracket! MoMaN and HuK first round Sucks one of them has to be knocked out so early. Good luck Blade

Anything you think just sort of says "Wolf Cup" to you. A StarCraft-related banner with possibly an actual cup, or just "Wolf". Not necessarily an actual Wolf.. Haha. But that's fine too. I dunno, be creative. If there's to be a prize, I don't know what yet. But I will say that if you make the banner, I can promise you a slot in every single future tournament.

Yeah, some people spoke highly of you, so I decided you probably deserved one.
Also, nice SSBM videos. Cool footage.

My nickname actually means "Wolf" ^^
So i feel even more motivated to do as good as i can in this tournament :D

I have made a map contest and was wondering if the map that wins the contest can be in the map pool if the contest ends before your tournament? The contest has requirements and there will be a poll for people to vote on the map they want to win.
Here's my thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=133553
PM me if you would like a map with those requirements in this tourny.
|
^^^^^ Sounds like a good idea wouldn't mind playing on a new map as long as it is balanced. ^^^^^

Probably not going to use it for this tournament, since I announced map pools already. However, I will allow the winning map in a future tournament if I end up liking it. I dunno, seems like you're doing a pretty good job of setting the rules for your contest, but I'll just have to wait and see. Appreciate the offer, though!

Are you still excepting banners? I'm putting together one that will probably make me a life time player in your tournaments.

Absolutely. Show me what you've got!

GL on the banner would be awesome to see a better one then the other one. By the way u spelled accepting wrong lol.
|
I will have a nice banner together by next week. Doing some research on what is going to look cool for this cup, and I didn't spell excepting wrong. I just used it in the wrong context.
|
I will love to see some other banners concepts too...
I did have some more time at work today so I redid my original design, let me know what you think.

I actually like this one much better than your last one. I really like the design; very nice. I think this could actually become the standard one (if you win; or at least, I'll play around with using it in the future even if you don't). I like how you have the '2' there. I think eventually when these start getting up to larger numbers (since I'll be doing these tournaments weekly) we'll be able to change that to roman numerals.

I like this remake also, just don't pick a winner yet. lol

I can send you the file and you can change the number of the tournament for each one. If i win = P

On July 03 2010 10:36 junk wrote:![[image loading]](http://24.56.73.154/sc2/WolfBanner.jpg) This is much more nice looking, the other one is really dark, but it is your choice both are really really good. Maybe alternating between the 2 for the next tournaments.

I'm already thinking of all the possibilities. I hope I'll even get to see a third entry.

It's actually going to be tomorrow night. Gives people a chance to do last-minute edits.

You gonna tell us which banner won Oo. I wanna know
|
The winner's banner is no longer showing up where it is hosted.. So I need them to email to me. Just PM'd them.
However, the other entrant, PLxDratewka made a great banner that I plan to talk to him personally about to modify for future themed OWCs.
So.. We'll see how that goes. But for this contest, junk is the winner!

Thank you, look forward to see you all in this tourny and future ones =)

has there been any new information with prizes yet? Also, How long will this tournament be anticipated to run. Is it all of sunday or split over the week.

I'm not giving prize info out until probably Saturday.
And the tournament will be done entirely on Sunday. Read the tournament procedures in the OP to see exactly how it will run.

If you are interested email me at Dratewka2001@yahoo.com

Now that the beta is out, the tournament is still on for this weekend ?

On July 09 2010 01:26 PLxDratewka wrote: Now that the beta is out, the tournament is still on for this weekend ?
Yes, absolutely. Everyone needs to review the tournament procedures in order to be sure they know exactly what to expect and how to participate.
|
My beta key works!!!! lol
|
Has been updated with new players and updated bracket.
Sheth and JUNK both moved into 'current' players. JUNK moved before OpRaider because he won the banner contest.
Look forward to seeing you all Sunday!
|
I think you should put me vs Junk as a re-mach to that banner contest ;-)
|
I have a question. I sent you a pm a while ago asking to join the backup so I'm curious as to whether I'm on the list or not.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.
Basically, I stopped listing people after a certain point. The people listed get priority for backups. Other people can just show up as alternates and possibly can take part in the tournament as well. Read the original post for further information.

My opponent is Pown But i don't know who he is or how to can contact him

can i be a backup please?

Just play your game by 11 PM and submit your replay. Shouldn't be a problem, I don't think. If it is, then simply request your name dropped.
