    OK, cause Team 1 weren't able to field (Ramza disappeared), we put Team 3 back in the game :)

    Semi-Final 2 (Team 3 vs Team 5) is currently underway.

    Semi-Final 1 (Team 4 vs Team 8) is over with a victory for Team 4.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 28,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭Shiminay


    Right!

    It's time for the final - BlueWing & De5p versus grimE & Bogger!

    This one's best of 3, first map is Scorched Haven. Second and third maps will be decided by the looser(s).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,824 ✭✭✭RoyalMarine


    well **** me sideways sally. was on the only team NOT to win any game! :/

    xios, i blame you :p:p:p


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 28,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭Shiminay


    And that's it!

    Late finish tonight, but the winners were Team 4 - grimE and Bogger who won the second and third games in the Best of 3 Final to take the victory.

    Hard luck to Desp and BlueWing and an extra GG to grimE and Bogger for giving the thumbs up to a restart after Desp's Starcraft crashed out on him in the middle of the first game.

    Thanks to everyone for turning up and playing tonight, I had a good laugh putting it all together - I hope you'll forgive the few delays trying to get people wrangled into place :) Also thanks to TheDoc for the Vent server as always.

    I'll start a thread for Replays now if anyone's interested.

    GG ALL!

    Well done to everyone who took part.

    Now all we really need is our own ladder, arrange matches between each other when it suits and let it be done ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,387 ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    yeah, there arent any custom ladders in BNet no? We could always use 3rd party ladder software.

    Some really fun games last night... I think it supports my opinion that 2v2 is the strategic game while 1v1 is tactical.

    I really need to learn to use Mutas better too... :(

    DeV.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,141 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Could use an external system or just simply set a thread here like or something, game doesnt support custom ladders ( but it ****ing should like)

    Allows players to arrange their games themselves, challenges etc, similar to how any ladder works, they are used alot in Tennis. But best of all it promotes playing when it suits you, and obviously your opponent.

    Run it for a set period then have a playoff with the top however many people.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 28,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭Shiminay


    I'm looking into it now... :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,141 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    If you need a hand holla ;) Setup a few in my time :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 216 ✭✭The_Keeper


    Yea a ladder for Boards would be great.

    I endorse this product and/or service.

    +1 on a Boards.ie ladder - can't always make the Tuesday games, but a general ladder would be kinda cool :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,141 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    I'm sure Kharn is all over it ;)

    We have all the tools and resources, just need to the players.

    Could also encourage some people we know not on boards to sign up and get involved, I know Dustaz's mates (Flavio, Wolfe, etc) enjoyed playing and watching the irish games so might get involved :)


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


    +1 to Ladder idea, good idea :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,141 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    well I think the boys are making tracks on it anyway ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,909 ✭✭✭Agent J


    I heartly endorse this product or service...
