Can I become a Live Report thread OP?
+ Show Spoiler +Sure! Anyone who enjoys SC2 can be a LR OP
How do I become a Live Report thread OP?
+ Show Spoiler +Volunteer! All you have to do is check if there's already a thread for the tournament, or if anyone is scheduled to make the thread. If there isn't a thread and no one is scheduled to do it, you can become the LR OP! We are always looking for new people to help out, especially for WCS AM and EU.
Why should I become a Live Report thread OP?
+ Show Spoiler +Being the LR thread OP is hard work, but it's also fulfilling. Hundreds, if not thousands, of people check the LR thread every day, and it is a valuable resource to the community. It's a simple way of supporting SC2, the game we all presumably love :p
Now that I've decided to be a LR OP, what do I do?
+ Show Spoiler +First, you have to check the tutorial found here:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=408230#2 Next, read up a little on bbcode and familiarize yourself with it. It helps to look at the code for previous LR OPs.
Finally, check your schedule. Are you SURE you'll be around for the duration of the tournament? Are you sure you'll be able to update in a timely manner?
If everything checks out and you've done all of the above, all you have to do is make the thread!
Where can I find previous LR OPs, as well as LR resources?
+ Show Spoiler +Where can I upload hype banners, cheerfuls, and ms paint wonders?
+ Show Spoiler +The best sites to upload images are imgur and tinypic
Why isn't anyone Live Reporting?
+ Show Spoiler +LRing is tough work, and only a handful of people do it regularly. The most famous ones are Shellshock and The_Templar, but occasionally other people (such as packrat, Yello, etc) do it as well. If no one is available to do it, then there is no LR.
Again, we need more volunteers. Anyone who watches games regularly and types really, really fast has qualifications to become an LRer.
How do I Live Report?
+ Show Spoiler +All you have to do is write out what happens during the game. It doesn't need to be complete, but it should be a good summary of the entire game. Supply counts, timings, build orders, and major events are typically what receive priority in LRs. You can read more LRs by Shellshock and The_Templar for a better idea of how to do it.
Can I submit a new banner, player photos, or other images?
+ Show Spoiler +Yes! We encourage creativity in LR threads, so if you want to submit some fancy stuff and replace the premade ones, go right ahead.
Who do I contact if I have questions about LR threads?
