It's not like hopping on SC2 and trying to communicate is at this point any better. If anything, communicating in a BW + SC2 format is easier than communicating in an SC2-only format imo. Pardon me, but how does that make sense? Admittedly I have no experience with the iccup interface, but how is switching between games make it easier to communicate than just staying in SC2? | ||

So you do all the communication in BW (channels), then go play SC2. Or you use IRC or instant messaging and it makes no difference. | ||

 ). well ok I still will, but I'll have way less enthusiasm now that it has switched to a worse game. | ||

Since beta, I don't think there's been a single week of CSL where I didn't hear someone from the other team talk about how rusty they are at BW from playing SC2. I'd think you'd also have a much bigger pool of players, so those borderline teams can more easily field a consistent team, and the teams that just didn't have enough players (hi Algonquin) have a higher chance of grabbing an extra player or 2 for SC2 that would otherwise not play BW. The way I see it, lots of people that aren't going to play BW will play SC2, and the majority of people that would have played BW will make the switch to SC2 I'm not in CSL this coming season so what I think probably has less weight than current participants, but the way the entire foreign scene is shifting so heavily toward SC2, I don't see BW being played nearly as much *waves with Purind* - you guys shoulda switched into the nursing program which is run by both Algonquin and UO..... Hot nurses + amazing SC awaits  On a more serious note, I think we got lucky..... We didn't succumb to problems with the beta, and I was able to consistently get our better players in the lineups as needed, including our best line possible against Duke, which happened to be the only time we were able to field that lineup..... I doubt it would be possible to run the next CSL in anything but SC2..... | ||

(modified) WINNERS LEAGUE FORMAT!!!!! Only submission is the first player for either team. That way, no teams have an excuse for not submitting a proper lineup, or requiring a substitute. It'll be a lot simpler to run. This may be bat-shit crazy, but I've been up for almost 30 hours now, and I'm not thinking straight anyways..... But yea..... | ||

think if you're just a school trying to play for fun, and your entire team keeps getting all killed by one player, it's not going to be fun for those teams. | ||
