Hey guys, a couple of my friends and I are starting a SC II society at Oxford, anyone in the area is welcome to join. There seems to be a general lack of any kind of gaming scene around here, but I'm sure there are at least a few of you out there. Currently we're just playing random practice games here and there and talking over vent. Anyone interested in joining post!

Just stumbled across this by chance, I play (Gold league Protoss) and play with 3 others fairly regularly (1 other current student, 2 nearby grads).

Would be cool to play some games with different people.

We did briefly talk about trying to organise some sort of tournament, but haven't done anything about it at this point.

Yo,
as Plague said, playing some different people would be cool, well up for it!
I'm currently diamond (but keep getting matched against masters, lol, promote me already darn it!)
RudePlague is more platinum standard than gold tbh ^^, anyways I'm without starcraft for 2 weeks, but after that totally up for some games, let us know the vent IP/password :D

Its a shame you are limiting it to just Oxford, with the small number of starcraft 2 players in the uk as it is, do you not think it would be better to do an academic starcraft 2 society? I am a final year undergrad student at Queen Mary's University of London and I think it would be awesome to hang out with fellow academics (although I might not be at an institute as prestigious as yours). Travelling to Oxford from London takes no time at all. Let me know what you guys think.

Haha, I will have played with you if not for the fact that I graduated already . There are quite a lot of people playing SC2 at Imperial. I was mostly playing with the Malaysian/Singaporean/Chinese/Asian students. Quite sure you can start a SC2 society

Hmm perhaps we should start our own thread then. I didn't know there were so many players. I don't expect there to be many English players and most of the Asians I have met are too posh for gaming.

I can't help but agree with Sombero, I go to Southampton and I know maybe 3 people that play SC2/BW.

If any one wants a game, my digits are in my profile.

Yay UK uni thread :D

I'm up in Manchester Uni, Platinum level. Was halfway switching from zerg to random when my laptop got nicked, so I haven't played in almost 2 months I've got a replacement now, but it's so old I'm reluctant to even try installing SC2, I know it's gonna be completely unplayable.

Hopefully be getting a new laptop around May, so will check back on this thread around then to see if I can find some people to play with ^^

Make it happen guys :D

Aight, I'm gonna get the ball rolling - 2v2 tournament this weekend! (and onwards).
Email ukunisc2@gmail.com with your team name, players (plus their SC2 Nicknames and character codes), and university/ college
Prizes - eternal (or 5 minutes of) glory for your university/college!
Format - Knock out ladder - it'll depend on how many teams I get as to how many stages this has.
Matches - best of 3, maps TBC - after the games the winners send the replays and results to the email address. 1 minute drop grace period at the start, if a player drops in this period, the match must be replayed. Otherwise the match continues and the result stands as normal. Games must be played on the "faster" speed as well, but that probably goes without saying.
The finals will be a best of 5, for added suspense.

Time scale - team submission by Friday 18th. I'll then organize the knock out stages, and inform you of your opponents.
19th -25th. It's then up to you to organize a time to play the games. As you've got a week, and it's the holidays, this should be do-able! Once a time has been decided, both teams email me the agreed time. Players meet in the "eSports" channel. If a team doesn't show up within 20 minutes of this time, they forfeit. (Send a screenshot of the non-appearance if this occurs)

26th-1st - next round, and so on.

So, if you're interested, email away!
Any suggestions regarding the time frame/ format, post here, if I get enough feedback I'll change it to suit the community mood. Bonus mention for the funniest team name.

I'd suggest starting a ukuni channel to meet in, or just use the UK / UKstarcraft channels as they will probably have less people than the esports one.

Since I know no one from Southampton that plays I'm open to 2v2 partners that are in the same situation that I am in. I used to be okay at the game, and then I tried playing again, and got demoted to plat. Sad times.

Personally I feel that a 1v1 tournament would be more popular and convient as some people may not have a 2v2 partner. In addition to having all the pros of 1v1 over 2v2 included.

This is my feeling too, a 1v1 tournament would be a nice addition. I would most definitely be up for a intercollegiate tournement in the first week of Easter for 1v1.

A winner stays on format for 1v1 would be best? Like GSTL. You could easily ask for submissions of a team of 3?

I did think that a GSTL style thing would be fun. But would require finding more players for teams, which may be a problem for some people?

With straight 1v1s, as UKstarcraft are already 3 weekly 1v1 cups do we really need another one with a more limited player base (students only)? I'm not sure there's that many UK players to warrant splitting them up further?
There's not that many 1v1 tournaments, which would make it a bit more novel.

If people are just looking for a tourney to GSTL kind of competition to join, check out Valor channel in Starcraft and look up Valor beginner's league as well as valorstarleague.com/forum, it's not strictly UK, but there are a good amount of us in there, and it's a pretty fun community.

From Imperial too, will be great to get to know some of you guys near me who plays regularly. Although I will be inactive for a week or so. Also looking for a good 2v2 partner to practice with, preferrably zerg as I play Terran or Protoss.

This has been tryed to be started for many years to get gonig and has been hard as not all universitys have gaming societies let alone a active one. Hopefully this year its going to get a big push again, its called National University eSports League. Website www.thenuel.com IRC #nuel on QuakeNet.

If the NUEL goes ahead, it would be a good platform to start a sc2 tourney between unis. I know Aberdeen Uni has a gaming society tho I don't know how many of them play sc2. I know the two stall people were either bronze or practice league tho :D

Well no replies for the team thing, so 1v1s it is! I'm not fussed about a massively formal thing, just a few games for fun.

So - if anyone wants some organized inter uni/college 1v1s the week after next, email ukunisc2@gmail.com, and I'll fix something up. Everyone welcome!

Hey guys,

Looks like we've got quite a good group here. I'll pm those of you at Oxford the vent id in the next few days and hopefully we can play a bit before term starts up again.

Hopefully we can get some intercollegiate stuff going, that'd be tight.

Kele college here, same as Herodotus, your idea RoberP sounds incredible, I am so freaking stoked.

We definately need some kind of CSL for the UK.
Maybe an intercollege starleague as well just for oxford uni if there are enough people.

And so in order to begin the first of many rivalries:
Oxford is so gonna rape Cambridge at starcraft, we all know which uni has the better gaming bros

Anyone from Oxford that wants to join our vent and play some games over term break, post.

As for everyone from other colleges, I'm totally down to colloborate and get some intercollegiate stuff rolling.

The new Oxford vs. Cambridge game?

I've just got the right computer for it. I'm buying the game today.

I have never played it as yet, but I have played WC3 TFT for quite a while. Count me in !

Hells yeah. Final year though

Me too, though I'll probably be doing a masters. What subject do you read?

Physics MSci. Really gonna miss the place.



I'm likely to be reading Physics with a year in Europe at Imperial. Any advice?

At St. George's Med school in London myself. Small independent uni, so as you can guess, barely any SC2 players. Would be great if there was some sorta ULU gaming tournament though!

Also stumbled across this through Google. Warwick grad living in Oxford, another forever bronze, would be fantastic to get some tips/practice from the higher level players. Also, any Oxford guys interested in meeting to watch GSL, TSL etc? Have been watching by myself so far but feel it would be a lot of fun to watch with a bunch of people and a few beers.

Heading to Oxford to begin my MPhil in Econ this fall. Platinum player (on NA right now, will get an EU accoutn when I go over), but would definitely be down to play with some people on a casual basis and I'd love to meet up for GSL TSL and stuff over drinks.

Hey,

Just joined the society on the webpage but there doesn't seem to be any info about actually joining the practice sessions or communicating with anybody ingame (unless I'm being dense ^^). Is there a channel or something which I could join to add a few people as friends in the game?

I'm a gold player, with any race, on EU :D (Faustus 411). I go to Wadham, and I'm a second year Biology student, if anyone's wondering!

Cheers

This definitely sounds good - I'm a Keele University grad but I live close to Oxford. I went to Lazy Gamer in Headington for the first time the other week, anyone else in the thread go there?

Hey guys, we have a new thread for this year over here!

We do indeed do viewings for GSL/MLG/IPL finals at keble college every so often on a projecter screen. All are welcome, you dont have to be at oxford university. We are looking at running some in house games nights (all levels welcome!) and we do a weekly night out to go eat Noodle Nation or pizza in oxford and whine about Zerg.

The term has just begun and we have some new recruits so now is a great time to get in and start playing. Please add me on Starcraft (HipsterBK (Character code: 264)) if you are interested in playing games with us. (We do a weekly games night on skype).
You can add me on skype: luke.graydon
Our facebook group is here.

Any other questions just pm me!
Oh my
