Tronga- I definitely have plans almost all day Sunday, and other various things over the course of the weekend, but I'll talk to you on AIM to arrange a good time. One way or another I'll be available :)

Heh. You could either do that or build tons of defensive units and aid his units, or use them as decoys. May sound stupid but I intend to spend every fun minute I am playing with you guys wisely, so doing wierd or abnormal things in SC is a must for me. Don't be too suprised if I do a drop attack with hallucinations, or something weird like that.

All right, it seems people have things to do in Friday (people told me on AIM), but some others also have things to do on Sunday, nor Saturday. I want you all to PM me with the time you think you can do best (PM it for better organization ;)).

When i say Monday (Or any day), it means the day for your Americans. So, for me, that means i can play on Tuesdays for me. But next week i'm working so this is homosexual for all.

Seriously, i don't even play SC competitively anymore. And the fact that i haven't played a melee in like 3 months. I almost uninstalled it yesterday! Just count me out of the tournament. Sorry DM, but it's just easier this way.

I understand sir. My wishes do intend you to go, but if it cannot be helped within your power then that is fine and understandable. You know my feelings on that, and even though you haven't played in awhile, chances are very good you could still school me in StarCraft. And worse yet I may not be able to make it, unless there's an unsuspectable miracle. No sorry needed sir. :)

If all goes well, we'll do it in Sunday.

This Sunday would be basically perfect for me, as long as it was before the evening on my time, otherwise my internet would lag me out everygame and there would not be much of a point letting me play otherwise. Besides, I have things to do today so I couldn't have made it if you decided to go along with doing it today.

Hmm, considering the lack of compability of everyone's time, we could do it during one week instead of one single day. Since we are 9 players (myself, Wing, DarkMatter, Louis, Reign, CerebralChain, Azrael, Pumpkinhead, exobyte), it won't be very easy to work it out. I did PM people that would make it a (gah, I hate engrish, you know, when a number can be divided by 2 :p) number.

We'll wait untill tonight (mine tomorrow morning ;)), then I'll post the respective games. It's up to you, then, to make the game (with an observer, to prevent hacking). I would also require that you kept me informed of the situation, and you would save a replay, too.

If the PMed people join the tourney, we would then have 12 players. We would have a series of one on one games, where the defeated would leave. Then we would have 6. We'd do it again. Then, when we had 3, we could do 3 more games, and the winner of most would win. In case of ties we would do more games until it was solved.

Is this ok for everyone?

So that means we would play at night then? Tonight in other words? Or is that when you plan to mark down everyone who can make it for sure? Because like I said before, anytime past evening up until the mid morning I can't do anything on the internet, as it crashes every two minutes for most programs, especially video games like StarCraft. If it's not tonight, I can make it otherwise as long as the time is within the mid morning to afternoon. As for the idea, I would like to see it go that way, regardless if I can make this tournament or not. But please get back to me on this TrongaMonga. If possible I want to be in this but if my internet won't allow it just say so in your next post please.

Why does the tournament have to be held at a specific time? It's Starcraft... we could play our games and then report the winners, and have the tournament last a whole week or longer if necessary.

I'll join to make it an even (that's the word tronga :)) number of people to participate in the tournament. I'll try to play as much as I can this weekend.

Thanks, mate :p

Darkmatter, what I said is described in Master_America's first paragraph ;)

What I said is that we'll wait for te registering untill tomorrow of my morning, and then I'll pick up the games randomly using battle report.

Alright then sirs. I am in, as long as my opponet can play within my timelength I am good to go. I just hope I get matched up against someone who sucks almost as bad as I do, like Azrael. Too bad he's probably really good and only lied to me about being sucky at StarCraft. Glad to be in this, I am.

Considering you almost beat me in melee twice, I'd say you are better then me. All I had was Lady Luck and a Dr. Pepper. Nothing more. But those were some ghood games though, I hope to face you in the tournament bt knowing my luck it won't happen.
