Facepunch Studios Starcraft 2 Open Tournament (EU/NA) - Tournament started - Games

Well okay us SEA will make a tournament as well. I can at least get 3rd. :smug: [sp]There's 3 people as far as I can tell from the megathread[/sp]

[QUOTE=DeEz;24133214]I'll participate[/QUOTE] Cool, please read the OP and complete the registration process. [QUOTE=CaptainSnake;24070329]I'll do it but my computer is in the shop so I wont be able to play in the tourney til next week.[/QUOTE] That's fine, we can arrange something.

Sent my email.

I am unable to play for an entire week from next Saturday on. Does this mean I am out?

ok so there's the issue of a EU player having to play on the NA server and vice versa.... This will require one of them to download and install an entirely different SC2 installation or use a 3rd party program to hack their current installation to be able to run on the different server. I don't know how easy this is but it seems like a lot of trouble.

[QUOTE=Krepps;24214137]I am unable to play for an entire week from next Saturday on. Does this mean I am out?[/QUOTE] No. Play your games before next saturday. (unless you meant tomorrow, in which case yes, you'll probably be out) [QUOTE=oktoberfest;24216569]ok so there's the issue of a EU player having to play on the NA server and vice versa....

I've done it and it is a trivial operation.

[QUOTE=gparent;24217001]No. Play your games before next saturday. (unless you meant tomorrow, in which case yes, you'll probably be out.)[/QUOTE] No, i do mean next saturday, but do you think I'll have time to play all games? Do you mean only the round robins?

[QUOTE=Krepps;24218209]No, i do mean next saturday, but do you think I'll have time to play all games? Do you mean only the round robins?[/QUOTE] Depends how fast it goes. Play as many games as you can. There will be a small break between series of matches, and I can arrange something with you if you go past round robins. Matchups have been sent to all players. Check your email regularly, and add players from your round robin group to your friend list! Good luck everyone. EDIT: If you wish to organize matchups via IRC (or ask questions to me or HTF), go to irc.gamesurge.net #fpopen. For those who do not know what IRC is, you can use mibbit ( [url]http://www.gamesurge.net/chat/[/url] ) You can enter /j #fpopen to join the channel, and type /nick your_nick_here to change your nickname.

Which map are we supposed to start with? The rules seem to say you will decide, but you have not provided us with one in the mail.

[QUOTE=Krepps;24219095]Which map are we supposed to start with? The rules seem to say you will decide, but you have not provided us with one in the mail.[/QUOTE] EDIT: Change of plans. Use the four maps above as a map pool, and decide with your opponent which map you wanna play.

[QUOTE=gparent;24219362]Oh, sorry. The first map will be Lost Temple. If you did your matches on a different map, that's okay. But if you read this post, please use Lost Temple. FIRST MATCH: Lost Temple SECOND MATCH: Blistering Sands THIRD MATCH: Kulas Ravine FOURTH MATCH (if applicable): Metalopolis[/QUOTE] I haven't started yet, thanks for the info.

Blistering sands and kulas ravine? Arguably the 2 worst maps for zerg >:

[QUOTE=melonmonkey;24219947]Blistering sands and kulas ravine? Arguably the 2 worst maps for zerg >:[/QUOTE] It's part of the game. Sorry. FYI I play Zerg.

[QUOTE=gparent;24219988]It's part of the game. Sorry. FYI I play Zerg.[/QUOTE] Blarg. Then I will make due.

So any one that's in my group wanna play a game now or what? [editline]05:37PM[/editline] Poop you should have added the friend code in the brackets

Why am I not on the list? I could have sworn I posted saying I wanted in.

[QUOTE=onox37;24221315]Why am I not on the list? I could have sworn I posted saying I wanted in.[/QUOTE] I can't see any posts in here, and I don't have any registration email from you as far as I can tell. I'm sorry but the instructions were pretty clear. EDIT: Pm me or go to the IRC channel, preferably the latter.

Are these best of 3 or 1? I didn't find it on the email.

All round robin matches are best of one.

one round per thing I think. Well I'm going out to eat, if any one wants to do their 1v1 for the tourney pm me AND WE WILL DUEL.

ok so for the map pool: what do you mean by 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th match? Was there a specific order we were supposed to play our matches? I just chose LT as the map because it was listed as the First Match map

[QUOTE=oktoberfest;24222301]ok so for the map pool: what do you mean by 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th match? Was there a specific order we were supposed to play our matches? I just chose LT as the map because it was listed as the First Match map[/QUOTE] You're completely right. Use the four maps above as the map pool, and decide on the map with the other player. If that leads to 200 LT matches, then so be it. The idea of having maps for each match only works if we specify the matchups in order and we didn't. Sorry for all the confusion guys, but there's bound to be some quirks since I'm not used to doing this. Thanks.

ok cool haha. Just a little curious that's all

Hey, if you're in NA and playing a game, see if I'm on. I'd love to obs. I'm not a good enough player where I'll remember your strategy and use it against you, but it's fun to watch o.O Melonmonkey 696

:v: I go away for a while and then this starts, I added my opponents but I may not be able to play today. I hope I have fun at least while I loose :buddy:

The images in the OP will auto-update with the results we get in by email as I update them online. Two games have been completed so far and are showing in the images (bottom 2).

[QUOTE=melonmonkey;24219947]Blistering sands and kulas ravine? Arguably the 2 worst maps for zerg >:[/QUOTE] Kulas Ravine is absolutely great for zerg if your APM is above 100.

Beat digitech 1v1 I sent you the email
