EU, but I can also play on NA
-
Having played in some forum tournaments before, could we not have best of one elimination matches to start off?? Lol
-
IF we get 10+ people then it'll take too much time, I guess we could do it on two days rather then just one.
-
by the looks of it, its most likely going to be NA
-

yeah the idea is we'll spread out games so we can let people play as well
-
yeah, would be nice to find some practice partners from this, really need help with pvp

Don't remember my char code off the top of my head but my real iD is stuck_in_norway@hotmail.com
I can play NA/EU. KR lagged like crazy and is unplayable unfortunately.

could you get it? pretty easy to get off battle.net, just so I can compile everything properly.
-
I have the game but haven't even opened it yet. No time to play thus far, but I'll participate in this tourny. I don't know anything in HotS, but in WoL I was around masters level before I stopped playing about a year ago.
I'm ready to get rocked in HotS, but it's all for fun, not blood.

If the tourney is in fact on 4/12/13, I won't be able to play that weekend. Going to the Great Lakes/Chicago meet.

Shame I don't have an NA account so I wouldn't be able to participate.

hots gives you access to all regions....

Code should be the same regardless of regionShame I don't have an NA account so I wouldn't be able to participate.
Yes you have access to all regions as baldgye has mentioned.

Before you type your password in, bottom left, Change Region

When you login to sc2 press the arrow next to your email and on the left a Region button will appear. Though I think ur character name and code changes, as my NA name is DEEPINSIDE, not baldgye...

NA novelty.500

Ok my NA is MoosE#1211

-
Can people come just to observe? (I'm not very good at 1v1 so I don't want to sign for the tourny but I love watching games).
-
We're hoping to have observers (that's why it's going to be spread out). However, it'll depend on how much it lags the game.
-
Well I'm definitely interested in observing the games.
My id is Joxy.124

^.^
-wd
-
I'm in, I think car code is #110 so
nebo.110
-
I think that we'll decide on a fixed time, for those who can't make that time, the two players will arrange a timing.
-
RARAR.444
NA is best, eu has lag, sea and kr are worst
-
cool, i ll close sign ups tomorrow and generate brackets so everyone can sort out matches if they can't make the stipulated timing
-
okay guys I randomized the brackets since theres no seeding and this is what I got, let me know if there are any issues
-
http://challonge.com/tournaments/bracket_generator?ref=m0LfI3srXv
Tournament starts 12th April 10pm edt, you can arrange time that suits you best, games are to be played on NA, again contact your opponent to make arrangements.
-
Putting yourself in Round 2 eh? ;) Kidding.
I'll be there to watch, I hope!

-
2am GMT? Count me out lol
-
2am GMT? Count me out lol
I already said that you can message your opponent and arrange a different timing dude. People are flexible so I'm sure you can find a timing that ll work for both of you
-
Well yeah, but if I won my first game... I'd probablly end up not being able to play the next game, which would jus screw over the person I play first lol
-
And to make it so I could play I'd have to play my match like5-6hrs earlia than everyone else would be playing lol, not very fair on everyone else
-

we don't have to finish all the games on one day so we can spread em out. there isnt very many of us so lets try to make it such that we all play our games. Just sort out your first match and we'll work out the second one
-
Alright then, I'll do my best! >inb4iloosethefirstgameanyway

Rarar going down!!
Nah I'm silver right now so I will probably not get far. I was surprised how bad I was when hots was released. 8 months of no play really takes you down a few levels :P

Yeah, I feel you.
It's like a coin flip sometimes.
robo opening > DT expo > stargate opening > robo opening
But maybe we just suck too much to play solid games ;)

yeah.. I've been playing around with 2-3 gate openings and then going into stargate because lolphonex... have pretty mixed results... yeah DT's are super strong because oricals are tricky as **** to use but yeah I've no real solid builds or clues and scouting is so hard..

Don't overestimate the difference between diamond and master....

as a diamond, I'm gonna be using either my HHKB or white leopold otaku with reds :D
-
how the **** do you use a hhkb with sc2?? :/ dont you need alt/shift/cntrl? :/
-
Wow, how's this for timing. My home internet is down, and has been for about 20 hours. They say there is a technical problem in this area... God knows what is wrong or when it will be fixed, but I'm afraid my attendance today may be in jeopardy
-
how the **** do you use a hhkb with sc2?? :/ dont you need alt/shift/cntrl? :/
yes, and I have all of those! :D I actually like the layout for it, because the ctrl is closer to the numbers so theres no awkward reach for it
-

I really want a hhkb but have always been turned off because i couldn't use it much for gaming

I honestly barely use them :)
-
though tbh I've not yet played with the F cam keys at all
I use Fkeys for control groups and find them irreplaceable. So much so that I exclusively play with 84key close f-cluster keyboards. Once you get used to that layout it's almost like cheating. ;D

-
Are we doing the whole bracket tonight or just first round?
-
Alright well the guy I'm suppose to be playing cant play untill next week, any suggestions?
-
Damn, still need to dig for keys..lol I WILL GET THIS DONE TONIGHT!!!
-
until next week? wow. hmm looks like we might just let it play out for the players that can and then let players sort out games amongst themselves. looks like the tournament might end up dragging
-
lemme just check if i have the time check right, but it starts in 8 hours correct?
-
If he can be replaced that might be better I think
-
okay we have one standby player, when were you meant to play him again?
-
Any time, only problem is I'm UK time and it's 7:25pm here :P
-
the stand in is likely to be LechnerDE, dont think hes online right now
-
Yeeeaaaaaahhhh... Would rather have played the guy I was signed up to play lol :P
-
haha walk over perhaps?
-
the stand in is likely to be LechnerDE, dont think hes online right now
Oh, I am online now :)
I would prefer to be matched against someone else from the EU server.
-
I'm on eu, but will play on NA if it makes your life harder LOL
-
damn im late to the signups
-
If your below diamond league your welcome ahahahaha :P
-
if you guys could get your game done that would be cool. but baldgye if you would prefer a walkover i m inclined to go with you since signups had closed.
-
Yeah I'm only joking lol, I'm happy to play who ever and put up a fight :P would rather play someone who's better anyway as it gives me replays to go off, just when you wana play is all I need to know and if we are playing on eu or na, it's all good to me baby
-
I'm on eu, but will play on NA if it makes your life harder LOL
haha, whatever the admins say ;)
What about the tournament format? Will all rounds be played tonight?
I think it would actually be better if we did one round per day, so the players can agree on a fair time between NA/EU...
-
we're likely to just let it play out as the games go on, so at this rate it looks like a game a day, i m gonna sleep for a bit because its 3am here but i ll be up for when the games start
-
can i confirm its 3pm edt now right?
-

Ok, then I will arrange a Bo3 with baldgye and report the result in this thread.
-
Do I have to register the game someway, We played and I won (took the final game with an allin(Sorry TT__TT), Do you want the replays as proof or something?
-

I think it is enough if your opponent confirms the result in this thread by quoting your post.

@ OP
What do you think about doing such a tourney every month with 1 round played each week.
This way the opponents have one week to arrange a match and it gives them time to prepare some nice strats etc.
The match date could be posted here, so everybody who wants to obs can join :)

i think its a good idea, but im generally quite busy so perhaps someone could become the resident organizer?

I think we can organize it by ourselves. One guy just has to make a random tournament tree once a month - the players can take over from there :)
-
thats true sounds good. we should make like medal caps so the winner can ornate his keyboard with it haha

ahahaha

I'll be giving out a RGB Dyesub set :p

Nope, still looks like no matches have been played to me.

nope, I get the same thing like baldgye.

man so weird. i tried in different browsers and different computers and it shows its changed. i dont know how to fix this
-
post a screen shot so at least people have some clue as to what the **** is going on...
-
here. hope this clarifies what the **** is going on
-
yup
-
I can't get a hold of my opponent (nolliepoper). I've had him as friends on battle.net for 3 days without seeing him on, and I sent him a PM a few days ago with no response.
-
give it 1 more day then its a walkover
-
Waiting on the results or Derp and Rekanise, victor please contact me. :D
-
Still no word from nollie despite a PM and waiting ingame for quite a few hours.
-
Sorry, been busy with school, ready to play now.

edit2: Oh Baldgye. Want to play EU since we're both on this side of the atlantic?
-
I'm not sure if my pm came though, but It would be an Ideal time for me to play today or Thursday at 4pm cet, which is around 10pm in Singapore I could probably play a bit earlyer but I can't guarantee that.

How about 4pm-ish?
I'm masters league.
-
God damn it, is everyone masters ?! Hahaha... Yeah 4pm sounds fine:P
-
God damn it, is everyone masters ?!
You handled me just fine ;)
-
I don't feel like low master players have huge skill increase, just slightly better mechanics and a bit more abusive in their play.

As someone who's able to ladder and be pretty consistently high diamond I would say there is a pretty decent gulf between diamond and masters.
But playing people who are all round better than you can only be of benefit, even if you do end up loosing

sry that i missed this tournament but i got alot of work and other stuff todo iam never at home . Next time i will !

was a shocking waste of time

2-0 over Baldguye, I think maybe idra was smurfing on his account because he got really mad and didn't GG and disconnected afterwards.
Either that or he's every bit as classy as I thought judging by his forum posts.
GG's anyways.

What's lol is the way you are acting. And in a fun-tourney none the less. Pretty incredible.

Anything I most is going to make me sound like a bad looser, which isn't the case. gl with the rest of the tournament, who ever else is playing

The way I'm acting?
You where late, played a warm up game after being late, argued about making someone a ref the reason I didn't gg the last game was because you didn't 'glhf' at the start of it and were arssy as **** in the lobby.
Nothing was good about either game, you where able to make all the drones you needed on three base with me being able to do little about and then you just killed me with roach hydra, when I blocked both your nat and 3rd you just made lings and killed me.
I'm not mad or angry but I think its pretty funny that you accuse me of being so after you (a masters player) made such an arse of the pre-game vs me (a diamond player).
Not what I'd call incredible....
LOL you are hillarious.
Yes, I was 20m late which I apologized sincerely for. I did say 4ish, not 4 sharp. Either way, Wop-de-doo.
"nothing was good about either game" that's what some rager would say. GG doesn't just mean that you thought the game was great, it's a dignified and respectful way of resigning from the match. I don't really think I need to explain this to you.
It's a bizarre request that some random non-official should be the referee. Obsing is one thing, but granting someone who isn't even playing ref powers? I see no reason for that. Either way, he did obs as the referee all games, did he not?
Speaking of the lobby, who was it that just up and quit a game lobby because you didn't like the map, even after you had vetoed another one? calling me a "*****" because I thought it was unnecessary to make your friend the match referee? And in the final game you just leave and don't gg, then go offline. Even Lechner was calling you a ragequitter.
Here's the stream video for anyone who wants to make up their own mind. http://www.twitch.tv/thevio/c/2163500

Lets not fill this thread with a pointless argument, I edited my previous post for a reason.
-
I played like **** in both games and there was little I could do about it, both games were bad because I played badly... like what else do you want me to say? I'm only angry at myself becasue I wasn't able to do anything other than die in either game, first game I was unable to put any pressure on and the only two maps I'm actually good at PvZ.. you veto'd one and the other wasn't in the map pool. I never expected to win but I hoped to at least get a 3rd.
I said why I didn't 'gg', you didn't 'glhf' at the start of the second game either, and given that your the masters and im just a dia I call that as evening the 'bm' out... It's not an important tournament and I didn't expect to win but arguing about someone (who's already been in the tournament) being a reff seemed petty, me calling you a ***** was clearly joking and not to be serious, unless you also think I love you as well (<3 that was sent in the lobby chat).
And I quit the game loby almost as soon as I joined it because I didn't realize what the map pool was and had just left a replay of the previous game and didn't want to play another game where I was unable to put any pressure on early on.
Your the better player by far, ok? It was clear before those games (looking at ranking w/l etc) realistically I didn't stand much chance as PvZ is my worst match-up by far. I was given no chances and destroyed, but to call me an angry rage quitter because I didn't GG the last game and then went offline (because I had no intention of laddering due to being hung over (as previously stated)) is just rude.
But please people, provide feedback on how terrible of a person I am and how much of a rage quitter I clearly am.
Lets not fill this thread with a pointless argument, I edited my previous post for a reason.
This is ridiculous.
First of all, I did say Glhf after you said it in game 1. I didn't say it in game 2, because I never do (unless the other person says it first, which you didn't in this game.)
Insulting someone and calling it a joke afterwards is still insulting and bad mannered. This is common sense.
As for the rage quitting, please stop ridiculing your self. If you leave a game without saying GG, and no further chat dialogue afterwards, and just log off, that's the textbook definition of ragequitting.
You can call it whatever you want, but anyone watching the VoD will agree.
And when you're bm, me remarking on your bm makes me equally bm? bulletproof logic right there. I had a poor impression of you from the forums, and you confirmed every impression with the way you conducted your self today. If you think me pointing out the fact that you acted poorly in our games today makes me BM to well.... I don't even know what to say.
It's sad that you can't even muster up some basic manners in a fun tourney.
-
I didn't say it in game 2, because I never do
muster up some basic manners in a fun tourney.
;)
-

Not saying glhf (just like you didn't) is on par with calling someone a *****, leaving lobbies, not GG'ing and ragequitting the game?
Not saying glhf in the beginning of the game is common practice. Not replying to another persons glhf would be minorly BM I guess, but just two people not saying it? that's completely normal. GG is still expected at the end of every match, at least a tourney match.
You're making a fool out of your self. I don't need to debate it any further, everyone can watch the VoD and decide for them selves (LOL).
-
just let it go guys...
let's just forget about those mediocre 2 games and look forward to the next tournament games :)
-
Agreed with lechner, just calm down, it's not a big deal. Sometimes we all get mad, and this is one of those times. It happens to me too, but just don't stress about it, and focus on the fun of the game :)
-

I have been trying to mag him for like a week now and have heard nothing.
-
my opponent stopped replying me as well
-
I don't know what's going on with the players in the match before one of them will play me either.
I guess they're both unresponsive to each other? lol
-
my opponent stopped replying me as well
Sorry, work full time and we live on opposite ends of the world. Someone hit my car, kind of had to deal with that.
-
Wow this looks fun, disappointed I missed this thread and the sign up, going to look in to getting in on the next tournament if you guys do it again!
-
So, Novelty and Grebesnorr... any progress?
-
sorry i ll get on it, i ve been getting killed at work

Damn, I'm sad I missed out on this :(

Yeah, post if you find the link. Singe or dual cast? Reminds me of a forum turney I played on the sc2 forum. They were not casting the earlier stages, just spectating. My 1st PvZ was a really cool game and they decided, to live stream and cast this series. The games after that were pretty awful lol. idk, maybe it was the stress of it ;D
-
Quick question, didn't read all of this. What level are you guys playing on? About Gold, about master? ;)
In other forums, there always were a lot of master players, which hindered me to join the tournaments (High Platin WoL, ~Gold HotS). Even some progamers there, so not much sense to compete.^^ And yea yea, it's not all about winning, I know :D

I am diamond, there's mostly masters, and a gold and plat level guy I think
-
I'm plat, but close to diamond! :D The skill level is probably very different. I just wish blizzard did some online tournaments for casuals. Like at the end of the season of you division or something.
-
So yeah sunday came and went without any games. I forgot/was busy, as I imagine Rek was, since I haven't seen a response from him here either.
I'm going to respectfully ask the kind donator of the prize that it be put to better use. To be honest this tournament has been a bit of a scandal from start to end, and it feels very wrong to even have a prize in it. I think the gesture is much too kind and too nice for this.
Just my 0.02.
-
Yeah I think it needed an actual schedual, rather than letting us book it our selves. I feel like the origional times were really EU unfriendly, I would have played at 4 am.

prize or no prize would you like to play this sunday, I will contact you personally so there isnt any "issues" to speak of, how about we set a fixed time so there isnt an issue

And I thought that since this is a community, we would take our time getting through the tournament. if you want something with a fixed schedule whether or not a player makes it or not i.e Walkovers if a player can't make a time slot then perhaps you should join an actual tournament on TL. Or you could handle the next tournament and run it the way you want to. Just my 0.02c.
-
Rek I don't think you should take his post as an attack or anything, while having a flexible tournament system is good you do need some structure... So maybe the next one you or anyone else makes just has a bit more structure :)
-

Hey guys, I'm terribly sorry I was supposed to be helping organize this but I've been very busy and wasn't into StarCraft for a bit. I'm slowly getting back into it so hopefully the next tournament will be much better organized.
-
tl;dr - sorry
Has there been a winner yet?
This again! Still got this set of RGB to give away :P

As someone pointed out earlier this tournament didn't really deserve a prize. Maybe we should look at it like a test run and you provide the RGB set for the next tournament?
But after all that's your decision of course ;)
-
I didn't mean what I said as a personal attack, I do like the flexibility but there need to be set dates, like you would need to play during the weekend and when during the weekend doesn't matter. That way there would a proggress during each week rather then what we had.

I'm more referring to the attenders than the organization when I say that the tournament has been a bit of a scandal. I don't mind the fluid time schedule thing, but as far as I can tell there was a pretty staggering number of walkover wins, where both the people who were supposed to play each other didn't even respond beyond signing up for the tournament.
If the tournament was a fixed schedule or walkover setup I think a gold leaguer would probably win the whole thing by walkover as long as he was good at showing up for his scheduled match :P
-
but there isn't much that we can do with regards to the seriousness of the signups.. unless you enforce some kind of rule, people who are a noshow once, get penalized for subsequent tournaments etc..
-
Were there any games this sunday?
-
who is da winner!!>!!!!> also when does the June tour start? It would be cool to start these weekly or bi-monthly and have set time schedules.
-
I guess its safe to say its not going to happen?
