Alright... Since we've never had one and I'm kinda curious about a couple of things, I'll host a simple one.  Before you go and sign up here are somethings that you should take into consideration.  So without further ado.... The Rules: 1) All matches will take place on the FSGS server.  Two reasons for this: One the FSGS server is a lot smaller than battle.net, a lot less people than on battle.net, and has a lot less problems finding people than battle.net (at least in my experience).  Two, it will let you guys know that the FSGS server is there, so if you actually like playing on it you can use it.  To download the connection tool goto: Net-Games Connect 4.2.  If you have any questions with this talk to Talon, TJ, or myself as we've all used it before. 2) All matches will be 1 vs 1. 3) All matches will be played on the 2 person map called: (2)Challenger.scm.  It should have come with Star Craft, but if not, please let me know and I'll send it to you.  Feel free to look over the map before the tournament starts. 4) All participants must sign up by Saturday Sept. 15th at noon Eastern. 5) Saturday Night I will randomly place the participants in their brackets, and matches will start on Sunday. 6) Match Time Limit:  All matches must take place in a week from the time that the match has been announced on the Multiplayer ComNet.  If no match score has been reported by either participant, you will need a reason for not playing the match or both people will forfeit and both people will be removed from the tournament. 7) All Match Information, and Score postings will be done on the Multiplayer ComNet.  I really don't want to hear the, "But I don't check the ComNet every second."  Tough, if you check it once everyday then you should be fine.  8) All score reporting will be reported through screen shots that are sent to an address to be given later.  If there is a descrepency between the screen shots we will go look at the replay.  So save your replays. 9) All matches will be played using original Star Craft.  NOT BROOD WARS.  Also please make sure all of you are updated to version 1.08.  If not log onto battle.net to upgrade or download the patch from: Starcraft Upgrade Page 10) All matches will be terran vs. terran.  Maybe later we'll open it up to other races, but I want to keep things as even as possible.  11) Anything goes.  If you want to use nukes, then use them.  If you want to rush 3 mins into the game, then by all means feel free.  If you want to send all your scvs in right after the match starts go for it.  12) We'll deal with disconnects on a case by case situation. I have chosen a week for matches to be played because there will always be a weekend that matches can be played on during that time.  If you feel that a week is too long please let me know and we'll see what most of the participants think.  To sign up for this tournament, please post a reply to this ComNet and in big bold letters say that you are signing up. Questions and comments can also be posted as replies to this as well. ----------------------- ::Salute:: FM Threeof4 Head of the High Council - Vast Empire E-Mail | Webpage | AIM Close the world txen eht nepO

1. Cool smilies! 2. Count me in--I may not be good, but I'm game. 3. Whats the FGSC server? Actually...there have been problems with replays...like when I played my friend last, he saved the replay...and at the end, it showed me with not units except 4 probes and a Nexus, but they weren't doing anything (no zealots, no high templar, etc.). Its a weird phenomenon...I'd go with the screen shots or the honor system (not challenging the rules, but the replay bug is sorta weird, and may not be a reliable way to determine the victor). I do not when I lose, and if I win . No matter what happens, we're gonna have a good time.

Here Here Tycho.  Actually we will be going by the screen shots for wins and losses.  The Replays will only be used if people submit two different screen shots.  Talon and I have been using replays a lot lately, sending them back and forth and to discuss what people are doing, etc. and neither of us have had any problems.  May be a fluke?  May be something that happens when you play protoss, who knows.  But we will be going by screen shots first.

Could be--hopefully it was a one time glitch. "We're in the now. We're in the now."

Sorry Tycho didn't see your first question.  FSGS stands for Free Standard Game Server.  It's basically a replacement for Battle.net.

When exactly do you take a screenshot?  And do you press Print Scrn ?

Screen shot of the score board.  Printscreen copies whatever's currently being displayed to the clipboard.  Then you have to open your favorite paint porgram and paste it in there.  If you need more help than this please let me know.

Print Screen also makes an image file to your SC directory.. it's an out of date file type (I sure I don't use it =c\ ) but you can convert it. -Tal

You mean press Print Scrn on the screen where it shows how many units/resources/buildings, etc. we have built?

Hmm...TvT [i]can[/i] be fair...but then again, it might not. What if the player isn't good with Terran, but good with Zerg? or Protoss? Thats a disadvantage to them. (Only reason I say this is because 3 said he wanted it to be fair)

What if .... What if..... What if....  Please don't ask me 'what if' questions, they annoy me more than whining.  Terran vs. Terran is more fair than Terran vs. ??????. Here's why.  Everyone has the same exact options as their opponent.  Each race in Star Craft has their own strengths and weaknesses.  Terrans have the ability of being simple, Zerg I don't know about, and Protoss have those damn carriers and those moving cloaking devices known as arbitors (pardon my spelling). Now if you still have a problem with it, well, you don't have to play.  I was trying to get something started that could be built off of.  That means you start simple.  If the player isn't good with Terran, then I guess he/she/it can wait until someone starts one with a race that they are good with.
