Let's be honest: Fayth will just slither out of this in some way: either by saying that none of them qualify for the money because they didn't know about this thread, or claiming none of them have 4000 replays saved.

Honestly, this is one of those "too good to be true" moments. Fayth, you did this to get attention. Don't act like you didn't. No one would ever give away 2,000$ of their own money to a complete stranger for some random ass computer game achievement.



from my understanding fayth has been around the community for a longgggg time. His credibility was so high jinro himself mod edited the OP. I think it's perfectly reasonable to 'weasle out' if the person didn't follow the rules by saving replays or respond in thread. Fayth would have 100% paid up if someone met the challenge appropriately.



So Fayth is going to watch 4000 'legit non cheese' games to see if people followed the rules?


if you read the OP you'd know exactly how this contest works...

well if you do the math today is the last possible day someone has to submit themselves, so unless if he gets someone tell him that he/she has done the achievement and gives him a replay pack he doesnt have to watch anything.

MUTE is legit, he often fast expos and has long games

thing is he doesnt have solo zen master nor is he even close..he hasnt even won 10 games with zerg terran or random

Just to mess around, say an average game for him would be 15 minutes. (Some are longer, some are shorter, fair number?) He has ~6502 games done. If my math is not totally crap, thats nearly 68 days of straight play time.

I told mute at the beginning when I saw he was doing a ton of games if he was doing my challenge, and he said no... but if he did he could have won probably

sadly now he played all protoss and nothing else, but he was on pace that's for sure

The ammount of people saying "but you're gonna have to watch SO many replays, no one would do that" is getting annoying. when dealing with that many games you would only have to watch a handful of replays, and if that person HAD cheesed almost all of his games, there's an extremely high chance each of those replays would be of cheese.

Shame this looks like no one's gonna claim this

so any consolation prize fayth?
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

You don't even have to watch the replays. Just use Multi-replay analysis in the SC2Gears program and look at the sortable list of most used build orders.

On a side note, these ppl are crazy. I don't even have 250 wins with Terran and barely 253 wins total on the ladder.

I think the 'no cheese' rule is silly though, unless he has some good definition of 'cheese' going along?

Like, if I 4gate a lot, is that a cheese? Some would say it is, some would say it isn't.

What if I DT in a desperation move?

Please read the thread\dont be an idiot. There is no "no cheese" rule. The reason he added the last part is because If you wanted to win this challenge the easiest/fastest way to do it is just to 6pool/superallinproxy or whatever EVERY single game, since regardless of win or loss, that will lead to the shortest games. Pretty sure the first guy to get this achievement basically just left half of his games, and did a worker rush the other half, which, at the low bronze levels gave him alot of wins. If you cheese say 10% or 15% or whatever of your games, because you want to mix things up and that is your playstyle then ( I am sure) that this is fine, but if you do it every single game, purely so you can get a fast win or a fast loss, so you can get more wins/games in, to win the challenge faster, then that is a bit less awesome.

He went by F.A.O.D and F.A.O.D[a51] on iccup, he mass gamed super hardcore every season, I'm surprised he doesn't have more games by now.
