based on barrin's own quotes, this is about making sc2 more like bw, whether that's more fun is entirely up for debate or whether that would need a crapton of balancing, again entirely up for debate, but that doesn't change what he's trying to do

Right below the first image http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=321242 there's a warning ... read it.


oh i fully read it, i just think he wants a bw style game, with mbs etc, the fact that he thinks it's better with a mineral and gas setup more like bw is his opinion, and his right to try it as an experiment, it doesn't change what i said from being my opinion, or in my opinion being true. His quote full on basically says, blizzard fucked up what we wanted sc2 to be, lets make it that way, which is bw (and some unit changes, i don't want to make implications on barrin's opinions on various units) without the stupid ass limitations of a system from 98

Well this should be an interesting one to watch. As long as nobody finds a super-exploitable imbalance (i.e. 5 rax reaper) then it will be cool to see just how differently the games play out.

PM Senex (the thread's creator) about it! We're primarily looking for masters+ although lower leagues shouldn't feel like they can't join. That being said, in order to put on the highest level tournament possible, league status and race distribution will be used for priority in filling the bracket.

Hello hello everyone, there has now been the 2nd major update to the front page, based on popular demand and the absolutely awesome TL community. We are listening to you guys, so keep the feedback coming! Thanks to all those who have already signed up, and I encourage anyone of the fence to throw their names in.

This will also go to the first page, but for all you folks who are reading each post of the thread here it is too.

Update 2:
Due to popular demand we're going to make the RO16 into best of 3's. The initial thought was to cast every game for you guys, and in order to do that we needed to reduce the sheer number of games in the RO16. However, because a BO3 is a more fair and generally less cheesy setup we'll be going with that. Pull and I will pick the best matches from the RO16 to cast on Friday, April 13th, and might end up doing the rest of them if there's demand for it.

Because the TL community is awesome, someone has stepped up and offered to contribute to a prize pool! I shouldn't have to say what awesome news this is, having a prize pool will encourage many good players to apply, and even pros who are used to competing for thousands of dollars will be more likely to take part just because it compensates them a bit for their time. We're still talking over exactly what the final amount will be and the breakdown for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so forth, but I should have more details soon.
If a prize pool is something you're interested in contributing to contact me through a PM and I'd be happy to talk to you more about it. It's totally volunteer, so no one should feel like they're under any pressure whatsoever to contribute money.

Thanks everyone for reading, and I look forward to continuing to make this tournament even better!

Hey, I didn't play for the last 8months or so.

I will play some games and if I land anywhere near Masters I will ask to join in!

Great things can come from this.

I'd say when we get a little bit closer to day 1. We need to make sure as many applicants have applied as possible before the brackets are drawn. We'll be sure to let everyone know plenty well in advance. Everyone just needs to sign up and make sure they tell all their friends who may be interested in the tournament to sign up!

I saw your message on the Bnet thread hunts, and have added you to the list of interested folks. Like Pull said we'll be selecting the players in about a week and will send each of you a message then with information on your first opponent, when and where the replays should be submitted and stuff like that. More updates soon.

Update 3: WTFPRIZEPOOL!

You read that right! There is now a $100 prize pool to be competed for in the FRB Grand Tournament! He wanted to be mentioned only in a footnote, but this kind of SICK NERD BALLERY cannot be contained by puny footnotes! A huge, huge thanks goes to OverUsedChewToy for his incredible show of support. Seriously dude, you're awesome.

So to any of those excellent players out there who were a little hesitant or unsure, come on in and apply! If you don't think you're quite up to competing yourself, encourage your friends to sign up. And, most of all, for those who want to see pro-players in this tournament, send them PM's, tweets or messages on facebook. This isn't just for bragging rights anymore folks, there's $100 on the line, so lets make sure the very best players are competing for it!

The prize pool breakdown will go like this:
1st Place: $50
2nd Place: $25
3rd Place: $15
4th Place: $10

I can't wait to see who takes these home.

EDIT: Woah! I just got contacted by another amazing member of the SC community saying he'd be interested in contributing to the prize pool as well. These may not be the final numbers folks, so stay tuned.

Just a quick notice:

Anyone interested in signing make sure you either send your battlenet name and identifier ( 3 digit number ) to senex or post both in this thread. Just posting the name will make it impossible for us to find you. Thanks guys!
