    7pm tonight

    There's one spot left guys!! Remember if your not on Binary beast then you won't be entered into the bracket. If someone doesn't show up thought I'm sure we can slot you in for them though.

    I'm afraid I'm going to have to withdraw from the tournament :(

    Next time....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,142 ✭✭✭koHd


    Damn only seeing this now. Might be busy later. I'll keep and eye and if a space opens up and I'm free I'll jump in.

    I haven't played a single multiplayer game though. And I'm only about 5 missions into single player. So needless to say I'll be just making up numbers more than anything if I do get to play.

    Oh noes, I was so much looking forward to a MrMagoo/QD final :D

    I'll be there, and if there's need for a referee I would like to volunteer after I get eliminated (that is, in 3.30 when I inevitably get 6pooled again ;) )

    AAAhh its tonight? I thought it was the 6th, having BBQ, sorry can't make it

    Good luck with the tourney, hope there's a good turnout!

    Ok I'll clear it with herself that we're not heading anywhere and sign up so. I might learn something, if I last more than 3 mins :)

    EDIT: Right so I've signed up. When do we fidn out who we're playing? What time? How to communicate with admins & opponents?

    I will post ventrilo details here later on at about 5pm. you can contact me in irc or on the vent. The irc is #starcraft.ie on quakenet. you can also message me in game @ zooM.367 the event starts at 7 and will end at around 8:30 or 9 assuming nobody has like a 2 hour match :P if it goes beyond 9:30 or 10 we can just wait till another time to finish it.

    Another installation? :eek:

    Surely it'd be easier to use Xfire for all communication? It works in game and saves me having so many programs running. I'm on a laptop with vista and just 2gigs of RAM :o

    I will be late but I will be there!

    I strongly recommend getting irc. If your using firefox there is a simple addon which I use that it not complicated at all: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16/

    I'll be putting a detailed post on all details and stuff later. If you don't wanna use irc you can add me and I will supply you with the details of your opponent.

    Yeah, i think i should be totally given the title, even though he raped me in both games, with very similar units :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36 Cpt.beefhart


    dam already a cheater....... ****.

    Are there any plans to do commentary on the games(that weren't cheated on :/ ) ? I think it'd be good for the community.

    Very sorry I missed out, lookin forward to seein the replays though :D

    Poxy nightshift :( ...though off for a few weeks now so should be able to get a game or 2 in and play in the next one :) I'm awful though.

    Is thursday the best night ? I've always found Sunday night the busiest for gaming, not personally...but globally in any game I played,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 954 ✭✭✭BluE-WinG


    Great tourney, even if I was only in it for 5minutes... When is the next one? Is anyone up for some 2v2s this weekend or coop play?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,142 ✭✭✭koHd

    <--- also confused, only way to cheat would be spectator + private chat channel.

    Whats the standard of play like in these games.

    Would a completely new person to starcraft like myself be a welcome addition?

    Well I'm totally new and never played a multiplayer game of starcraft in my life and I took part :D

    Ye have to start somewhere.

    My game was over in about 3 minutes, but it was still a bit of fun to take part. And I learned some stuff...like medics are not available straight away in multiplayer! haha

    That screwed my tactics right away.

    GGs!
    I learned something that day.

    stick to the plan

    So in my game against legend, I was, at the same time:

    • Stealing gas
    • Hiding Proxy pylonS
    • Early expanding
    • Void-ray rushing
    Well, I guess I deserved it :)

    Very good games, and I hope we can get some other games/tournies going, congrats to everyone (EVERYONE'S A WINNER!) and especially to Zooooooom for hosting and Funky for showing us how to do the Nony build ;)
