Nexus and Colossus, apparently the two hardest words to pluralize in the English language.

I sense favoritism for the swede. This isnt making sense. 5>4 and that's maps WON. Lucky should advance.

"My Koreans should advance despite having equal map score and losing the head-to-head match, else its favoritism!"

Seriously, I'm getting real tired of your shtick.

No, Thorzain won less maps and shouldn't advance. H2H is only okay when there's nothing else differentiating the players.

Since when do we only consider maps won and not maps lost? They both end up with +1 map wins, but please do explain why maps won is the only reasonable metric. I'd love to hear it.

Because you handled the other players in the group better. A 2-0 can be close, but most of the time, it is more onesided than even. I guess.

Oh fuck, I bet you would be arguing this if a foreigner dropped out?

Seriously the only reason for this argument is because of KR fanboys who can't accept that their guy lost fair and square.

I'll argue if the player that doesn't advance has been told that he advances and then gets shut down by a ruleset that is left to an admin's interpretation.

This is probably the best example that makes it apparent why raw game wins shouldn't be used instead of differential. It creates perverse incentives.


Exactly.

What is a better score 2/1 or 101/100. It's obvious right?

in percentages it's 2:1
always a matter of perspective

In my book: more wins should equal advancement regardless of losses.

I think the one that won the head to head should win regardless of map scores. So glad that thorzain was able to pull it off


I think head to head would have meant Thorzain would be out of the group because of the 3-way tie. Obviously irrelevant, but I'm glad Thorzain made it thru.

This swarmhost style is so un-zerg. It's almost as bad as infestor broodlord.

I don't know why Elfi isn't building a warp prism though.

Just use this. R1CH is a wizard.


Yep that's just sick, he is a wizard indeed, but if you want to plan ahead the google doc is your friend.


Wow, this is awesome. Thanks R 1 C H!

Plural is nexus. Because the word nexus is an irregular plural.

Goal difference ala football is not analagous to mapscore in starcraft. A map in starcraft will be won by one person or the other. It's binary. There is infinite permutations of goal difference.

The reason goals scored is the next tie breaker after goal difference is simply to encourage attacking footballl. 4-3 is better than 1-0 to encourage exciting games. Do you see why this makes NO sense in SC2 as a comparison?

Of course its 2-1! Who could possibly argue 101-100 is a better score???

It probably has to with the fact that 5 wins 4 loses = 55.56% winrate, 4 wins 3 loses = 57.14% winrate.

This also happened at 2012 DreamHack Open: Summer, Group Stage #2, Group G. 3 way tie between Seiplo (5-3), Mini (4-3), ToD (5-4). Seiplo and Mini advanced.
