Image courtesty of www.starcraft2.com and SageFantasma's excellent photoshop skills!


Live again, starting Thursday, October 7th, 2010!

Have you been dying for an opportunity to play StarCraft II on live TV!?
Well, now's your chance! Okay, not quite... but pretty close! Ladies and gentleman, neSix and SageFantasma bring you the greatest new show on the internet: NerdCraft!

NerdCraft is an all-new stream of Starcraft II content featuring YOU! Every week my brother and I will be casting a series of matches between two teams of teamliquidians in a no-holds-barred Korean-Proleague-style battle! This thread will be for sign-ups, updates, results, and discussions.

How does the show work?
+ Show Spoiler +
Every week, we will select a handful of lucky TeamLiquid.net volunteers to participate in several 1v1s to see which random team of posters packs the most punch! All matches will be streamed live so you get as much coverage of the beta as possible!

Format:
There will be two teams duking it out, each consisting of five players. The first players from each team will face off in a 1v1. The winner will go on to play the next member from the opposing team, while the losing player will be knocked out. Matches will continue until all players from either team are knocked out! At that point, the team with at least one undefeated player will be declared the victor!

First map will be Lost Temple, unless both players agree to something else. Every match the new player will pick the map after that.


What's the prize?
+ Show Spoiler +
We thought about giving a cash prize, but we decided on something that's worth more than money: pride, dignity, and e-penis enlargement.


Who can participate?
+ Show Spoiler +
Because we only have a key for the US Server, only players with a Starcraft II client for the US server will be able to participate.

If you sign up as an individual, you will be assigned a team randomly (with other individuals or to complement a clan). If you sign up as a clan, please be sure to list the information for all of your players so we know if we need to fill in any extra slots with individuals.


How do I sign up?
+ Show Spoiler +
Simply post in this thread with the following format:
(If you REALLY don't want people on TL reading your username and ID, send us a PM)

1v1
Battle.net Name and ID: neSix 213
League and Rating: Diamond 220



Please be sure that your post is in red, quoted, and using this format. If you are also willing to do 2v2, please post using blue:

1v1/2v2
Battle.net Name and ID: neSix 213
League and Rating: Diamond 220



If you have a partner, include them in the same quote:

2v2
Battle.net Name and ID: neSix 213
League and Rating: Gold 150


Battle.net Name and ID: SageFantasma 441
League and Rating: Platinum 144



If you and your friends or clanmates are interested in playing, please put all of them in the same post, and be sure to include their teamliquid.net ID if they have one. Preference will be given to clans / teams signing up in the same post over individuals to promote people getting their friends involved!

Thanks for helping us keep things organized!


When is the show? When do we play our games?
+ Show Spoiler +
The first match in the series will be casted live every Thursday at 7 PM EST. Subsequent matches are to be casted immediately afterwords.


How will I know if I've been selected to play?
+ Show Spoiler +
Players who have been selected to participate will receive a PM on teamliquid telling them what the schedule of matches will be for the evening. Players will be asked to friend me on Battle.net and be following the stream so that when it's time for their match they will be ready!

If we have any no-shows, a replacement will be selected at random during the stream.


IRC Chat: irc.quakenet.org #NerdCraft
Stream Link: http://www.livestream.com/nerdcraft (Goes live Thursdays at 7pm EST!)

We're looking forward to bringing you exciting, colorful commentary! Thanks for joining us!

Updates
+ Show Spoiler [Friday, June 4, 2010] +
Ughh we won't be doing a show this week either. Really sorry to anyone who was looking forward to watching or playing. Since the beta is over this week, the show will resume once the game has been officially released. Thanks a lot for your interest, support, and patience.


+ Show Spoiler [Thursday, May 20, 2010] +
Due to the recent patch and Battle.Net maintenance, the server is down. We will not be able to broadcast our show this week. Our next show will be June 4th.

The format of NerdCraft has changed! Check out the post above for updates.


+ Show Spoiler [Friday, May 14, 2010] +
What would a LiveStream cast be without some technical difficulties? Thanks for tuning in everyone, we had a lot of fun casting as we hope you enjoyed it too!



Schedule
+ Show Spoiler [Thursday, May 20, 2010] +
Due to battle.net server maintenance, the show this week had to be canceled. Here is a copy of what was originally scheduled:


Once again, we had a team sign up for our show! A big thanks to Symphony and Team CKSKN for joining us this week!

This means the matchup for today is Team CKSKN vs Teamliquid individuals! Here are the official rosters, courtesy of random.org:

Team CKSKN:
Symphony
Cyph
Zero
Piti
Globler

Teamliquid.net Individuals:
GrizzlyAdam
Whiztard
skyxbomb
Kruxt
Corinthos

Remember, these are only the recommended lineups. If teams organize changing their lineup on their own, that is fine.


+ Show Spoiler [Friday, May 14, 2010] +
We were lucky enough to get an entire team to sign up for our inaugural show! Thanks to igLeX and his team Cryo'State for joining us!

This means the matchup for today is Team Cryo'State vs Teamliquid individuals! Here are the official rosters, courtesy of random.org:

Cryo'State
igLeX
Catalyst
TroPiC
IntensS

Teamliquid.net
Chronopolis.starfire (TL ID=Chronopolis)
Cynan.cynanmachae (TL ID=CynanMachae)
darkponcho.mirage + Hocari.jun (TL.Net 2v2 team, TL ID=darkponcho)
FranktheTank.pryz (TL ID=FranktheTank)
Teknoboy.Teknoboy (TL ID=TechnoBoy)



Results
+ Show Spoiler [Friday, May 14, 2010] +

After a bit of confusion (again, I apologize to team Cryo'State for my mistake in making a totally fucked up format), the results are in!

Official Score:
Cryo'State 2 < Team Liquid 3

We had some broadcasting troubles, but the VODs are up on the NerdCraft channel, accessible through the on-demand library.

It look like there are at least 5 players for 1v1, and enough for the 2v2 game. So maye we will get to play tomorrow.. Should be interesting to say the least.

We're going to do our best to get our first stream tomorrow. Due to the quick response by so many (thanks for all of the responses, we greatly appreciate it!) I'd say expect the first streaming tomorrow!

Thanks again to everyone who has responded so far!

I'm so relieved this is getting attention! A part of me was worried that it was going to be a total flop and we wouldn't have anything to show on Friday...

I'll be sending out the inaugural team roster and updating the op to contain the schedule tonight. I'll put the team members in a random order, but teams are more than welcome to shuffle around players in an effort to develop a winning strategy!
