I wanted to make this thread a little early to do any organizing that might need to be done. I'll be driving to Dallas on Saturday (August 9) and checking into a hotel room for Saturday night. If anyone needs to sleep on my floor or needs to be picked up from the airport, post here or PM me (for those of you who'd be insta-banned for making a public post) to make any arrangements. If any locals are going to show up to spectate like is happening at the other regional, then it'd be cool if you posted here too. Also if anyone is interested in meeting up Saturday night, I'd be down for that.
Event info: WCG USA South Regional StarCraft qualifying event will be near Dallas, TX on Sunday, August 10, at Twisted Zen. Warm-up starts at 10:00am and games will presumably begin at 11:00am.
Twisted Zen 7340 Hwy 78 Suite #400 Sachse, TX 75048 Phone: 972-782-9503
BW Players: NonY Nesh / Lastshadow (is lastshadow officially banned?? i dunno. seems like a big mess as usual) NaW-LzGamer Louder (replaced crazy, crazy could not come)
|
Oh I'll be in Dallas the night before for a concert. I might convience the people who are coming with me to just stay and watch the south regional for fun.
|
.....Oh great this has to fuckin happen during Ozzfest 2008....I would go but I already got tickets for this Ozzfest concert.....There's no way im going to miss this concert either....Well good luck to any of the gamers there....Weird is I never heard of Sachse but the area code seems to be around the Grand Prairie/Grapevine area....

I've heard that Louder is replacing Crazy.
Louder, if you're coming and need a lift from the airport or anything, let me know.
|
actually Louder was supposed to , but he's going to be on vacation at the time/day of the regional so I don't think he can go.
|

So then it's probably going to be a no-show for that slot since Crazy isn't going.
|
Well, I will be in San Antonio from Wed-Sat night. In theory I could drive up to Dallas - SA to Dallas is about the distance from my house to SA. But then Dallas to home... is like 6.5 hours. So I'm not sure yet. I will know tomorrow.
|
Nony do you know about travel reimbursement for this? The way I'm reading the player packet, it sounds like we get $250 travel stipend, period, if we place top 2. It doesn't say that they pay for travel to LA on top of that. It sounds like we pay our own way to regionals, then if we qualify, pay our own way to finals, and get a $250 "refund" on total expenses...
Actually just read the "Prizing" section, but it still doesn't clear up whether or not WCG pays airfare to US finals.

Fuck it. I'll use the opportunity to take my kids to the DFW zoo.
So I don't need a ride or anything, thanks for the offer. See you there.

your kids can also spy at the lan running between cpus and telling bo's etc. Fucking sick advantage.
You have to pay your way to the finals and they give you a 250$ at the end of the event.

They had a cafe behind the event that we were given tickets to. If you missed out on that it is because you were too busy gaying it up with your brother to notice.

This was true. But you could still walk around the back area to get into it and still get away with eating really cheap food. Thats where I got all my meals; and I was just obbing the whole time and I never got stopped =P

Someone take a w/o over Louder when he goes to the bathroom.
When he asks why, tell him "I don't have to wait for you".

Poor G5. Will you ever get over the result of your own idiocy? I guess it would require not being an idiot. So no.

you cheating is his idiocy? how does that work out

he's pointing out that G5 is acting like an immature douchebag bringing it up every time Louder makes a post , seriously grow up .

that would be like every time you make a post I'd say "hey Idra why dont you have Assem play on your acc again" dirty cheater.
or saying... "G5 why dont you just drophack, or disc, or abuse, or whatever it is you did during TSL ladder... if your getting raped by Dino at WCG"
you both need to grow up and stop being retards. apparently cheating is only bad when it happens to you , but its perfectly ok for you guys to be faggots and cheat? double standard ftw!

I'm not saying you cheated. I'm saying can't follow rules, and Yankee is a pretty strict league, because I"m a pretty strict guy when it comes to rules, and if already you broke 2 pretty crucial rules and the season hasn't even started yet, I'd rather have a team who has already read and understood them.
except when its your own teammate?
and yes, btw, media got kicked out of the league for that and i caught shit forever. g5 got kicked out of tsl partially for that, and still gets mocked for it, and as far as i know it was never actually proven he did anything.
whereas louder actually gets to go to a regional and have a chance to participate in wcg usa, because he cheated (he ADMITS he cheated, he has posted that he took a walkover after 8 minutes when w/o time is 15 minutes). so ya. him.

Actually I'd be REALLY interested in a response to IdrA's last post cause that was a fucking brilliant post hehe (from a debating standpoint).
Both IdrA and G5 were punished/caught shit. Louder hasn't.. coupled with the irony of Xeris' defense.. wowowowowowow.

Ok that's pretty easy. Louder "cheated" in the Pacific regional. Louder played the South regional legitimately without "cheating" and got 2nd. He's going to replace Crazy-X17 in the SOUTH regional, not the Pacific. Your argument would be valid if he was taking someone in Pacific's spot, but it's in the South regional.
Also for the beginning of your post, when did anyone from my team break rules in Yankee? Or WGTCL? Or any other league that I am responsible for upholding the rules of? Never happened... and if it did, they would get the same treatment.

G5, I don't NOT like you, I just think you are an asshole with a temper problem. When I was doing the War of the States (which didnt work 2nd time because nobody really was interested), you came late to the first qualifier, and I said "sorry we already started you can play in another one" and you proceeded to flame me because I wouldn't let you in after we already started. It was an 8 man tourney, so putting a 9th would have made it fucking awkward, and you just flamed me and insulted me for no apparent reason... because you are a douchebag I guess? Honestly I don't care if you are really good at BW, it doesn't give you an excuse to be an asshole. Personally, I don't have a problem with you, I just don't appreciate you doing that shit to me, and then you little butt buddy Idra coming to the channel to flame me too.. if you wanted to play in that, show up on time.

It's actually not valid to say I cheated since the admin is the one who actually awarded the WO. And it doesn't matter anyway, because G5 qualified in a different event, and again, G5 is far too shitty pvp to have beaten Dino in the finals - that was proven in his previous games vs Dino in the prelim.

so you're only strict about rules in clan leagues? you're saying your a stickler for rules and yet you're arguing that its ok that your player broke the rules. if you werent a hypocrite hed be kicked off your team.
|
Funny, I always thought abiding by an admin's decision was the opposite of cheating, mister Idra.
|
Technically, admins can make decisions outside the rules, so if an admin actually awarded Louder a W.O for the match, it wouldn't have been against the rules...
I'm not strict about rules in just clan leagues, if someone from my team is blatantly cheating / disregarding rules / hacking, or doing anything else deplorable, then yes I will take action against them. In this case, an admin gave him a W.O, you can talk about the situation and the story or whatever all you want, but fact remains: admin was the one who awarded a W.O, so how can that be cheating? The only way it could be cheating is if Louder was an admin and awarded himself a W.O or something.
|
the admin was some random they hired to run the prelim for them, he had no knowledge of the system, no knowledge of how to run a tournament, no knowledge of basic english. the rules quite clearly state that walkover time is 15 minutes. you went and ed to the admin because you're a bad player desperate to qualify for wcg anyway possible and the admin happened to be dumb enough to let you get away with it. no one in their right mind thinks that puts you in the right, and the fact that you're trying to defend yourself with it is rather pitiful. once again, you abused the incompetence of the system and got away with it, you get a chance to go to an offline and get your raped by lz and nony. congratulations. stop ing acting like you deserve it because you're a horrible player and you arent fooling anyone.

Not that it matters, because the way Dino played he would beat either of us.

you're bad at forming coherent arguments, better stick to cheating your way into broodwar tournaments.

I'm aware of your position that behavior is irrelevant and all that matters is winning games, but then that's an attitude that benefits only the players who are incapable of being anything but an asshole. Any other sport has standards of behavior. Winning is the objective but being an insufferable jackass is generally frowned upon and often not tolerated all, and results in sanction. If the WCG rules did not explicitly disallow hacking, would you assume it was acceptable to use a hack in WCG? WCG rules don't explicitly say you can't walk over to your opponent at the LAN during a game and punch him the head, so that must be OK too. Reasonable people can accept that some standards are implied - one of which being socially acceptable behavior, an implied standard in nearly any context outside of this forum.

In professional tennis if a player simply walks off the court to have a smoke and is gone nearly 10 minutes, they will come back to a forfeited match. I'd also just throw out a guess that if a basketball team walked off the court during a game after using up their time outs, they would also get a forfeit.
Shouldn't you be scrubbing the Korean's toilets right now?

But the rules DO say you cannothack or use certain bugs.. so WHAT are you arguing? "What IF I didn't take a w/o and actually played the game the tourney is for."

first, you complain that g5 took too long and so you took a walkover, since you didnt have to wait for him. upon being informed that the wcg rules do indeed state that you have to wait 15 minutes, and he was only gone 8 max, you state that he was being bad mannered and that should not be tolerated. then, after again being informed that you are an idiot, you realize that 'bm' is tolerated in legit sports, so you then go back to the walkover time... which we already established you were wrong about. what the fuck is wrong with you.
and id much rather be cleaning korean toilets than sitting at home cheating my way into broodwar tournaments and raising a bunch of little brats who are gonna turn out as fucked up as their piece of shit father.

It's a crummy situation dude. But honestly WCG made the right choice. They traveled, competed and earned the right to play for a chance to go to the USA finals. Two players NOT taking that oppurtunity and being selfish bastards and not telling anyone ahead of time should not impede that. You were given the right to compete in a lan you didn't qualify for. You are subject to any decision they make. If they decide that your games were just filler (not entirely true, you earned a backup spot for a USA finals you by all rights should not have _any_ chance of going to). You surprised everyone and beat the crap out of the guy who earned the spot. I know that makes it hard for you but you need to realize that WCG has to have SOME integrity and the way they hold that is players need to compete through the entire process, not just take the oppurtunity to jump at the nearest lan and possibly hop in.
Sucks dude, I feel for you but that is how I feel.

Wait, Louder, you qualified before our games? Why did you even need to play the game anyways and care so much after losing? -_-
edit: oh replacement, didn't see that... well good luck friend
edit: wait... what???
Shouldn't you be scrubbing the Korean's toilets right now? ...

Seriously? bringing someones children into an argument about a computer game. Get real dude, dont fucking talk about someones kids. I dont care how bad this dude wronged you or a friend on Starcraft , you do NOT talk about someones kids. Thats low fuckin character right there, you know you would never say that in person because thatd be your ass.

yes apparently responding to a personal insult with a personal insult is so horrific that he had to call in a clan member to be outraged about it. i feel like such a heel

Zeller is in light? Who is Zeller? I made a joke about your chores Idra. I thought it was obvious. Score another point for reading comprehension and general mental capacity. I think in the future I will just refrain from responding to anything said by control/idra/g5, as it's about as productive as jacking off with barbed wire.
Superiorwolf, the reason I was irritated after our games was that it seemed as if I'd played someone completely different. I'd played you several times recently on ICCup on other names and the play styles were totally different, as were skill level. It was similar with Crazy-X17, except in his case not even the hotkeys matched, whereas after looking at your reps it was clear the hotkeys were about the same, and you had just played well. Bleh.

Insulting one another is one thing , thats just trashtalk which is always expected. You definitely don't have any kids because you would never say that if you did. I could maybe see you trashtalking people as bad as you do on your keyboard in person. I could even see you getting away with some of it in person as well. But you know damn well you would never talk about someones kids in person because any parent would go fuckin berserk on your ass.

Because even when you are throwing around personal insults, there are lines you don't cross. If you are arguing with a guy, and you start talking shit about his mom, you are going to get knocked out.

nono.. greg asked what happens when you take a w/o irl over someone who goes on a smoke break.. my best guess was you beat up their mom. Are you saying Louder would get knocked out irl?
|
no, I"m saying if you are arguing with someone IRL and you cross some line, it will lead to a fight... the stuff Idra is saying online, I bet he wouldn't say to someone's face, or maybe he's bold and would actually do it, but if you say shit like that to the wrong person, you are going to be in trouble.

i dunno if you know this but geoff happens to be a bear
im pretty sure hes not too worried bout getting in a fight with a bw player
|
why is it that all shy gamers can argue so well on the internet ;o
|
maybe not "well" but clearly some strong arguments here! Btw imo, IF louder was waiting, g5 shouldve asked if it was ok that he went out to grab a smoke..its common courtesy nomatter what the rules say. Being late for whatever reason whenever very often is a result of wasting someones time, but maybe a warning would be sufficient or a dialog about it ;o

I doubt there's going to be drama IRL ... arguing over forums is just e-drama rarely carries over in real life, unless you are insanely immature (I.e Hovz)

Xeris, judging maturity levels? ...... Just chill out man. It seems like you have to get your word in on everything, mostly on matters that don't concern you because you aren't even a player/participant, and you always have to get the last word. Having an opinion on something doesn't mean you have to tell everyone what it is. You seem really out of place here. Let the people involved work things out for themselves without you butting in.

Have you been reading this ? This is about G5 having a problem with me, and since he's going to be at the Regional, it DIRECTLY impacts me. If I'm going there to have fun, meet people, and watch people much better than myself, having Mr.G5 who, according to Machine, is going to make it very awkward for me... that will hinder my ability to enjoy myself.
My post was directly referring to G5's hatred of ME (I'm not responding to anything about Dino... I have nothing to do with that, and don't care about it). And I'm saying, if G5 is really immature enough to bring up e-arguments in real life, then I just feel bad for him.

Stop nitpicking. You have been in the middle of every single issue which hasn't concerned you. Me not liking you was only brought up as a result of you sticking your filthy nose where it doesn't belong.
And don't be mistaken. I won't say a word to you at regionals. I hope you have a good time. But if you come up to me and act all buddy buddy I will tell you to fuck off. And if you get upset by this... you can go sit in a corner feeling bad for me at regionals. I couldn't care less.

what happened to lastshadow

i heard he got run over by a car

who cares, he wasent going to show up anyways and niether was dino or spades

are these all confirmed or what

I'm pretty sure LastShadow was going to go. Was Dino banned too? And specifically what was LastShadow banned for?
The only person of the three that was not going to go was Spades. I don't think Dino and LastShadow have as much to fear as the guy who was able to push perfect every TvP game with his "sick timing senses".
|
I barely know the argument between Idra/Louder.. but like someone said, Idra making an unnessecary comment about Louders kids was a bit much. It's all a game. I think I might have stated this before, but none of us are good at Broodwar. Even idra, in all his foreign-progaming glory won't be able to hold a light to the Koreans skill (i.e. like rekrul, assem, smuft etc.. won't make it to the big leagues)
Some are just better than others. To get personal w/ it though, making a comment about someones wife or kids etc.. is too much considering the argument is between 2 ppl. We should all be helping each other as a BW community, keeping it strong and united as TL.net has done for soo long throughout the years.
So ya, I'd watch it idra.. it'd be so unfortunate if u ever happen to run into Louder.. and get Ur ass handed to u.. Won't much ur Terran builds be able to do for you then ^ ^

anyways nesh is not 100% not going.. he's going to try and grab a standby ticket right before the flight!

I wish wcg was ontop of what they were doing for once, this is terrible. They ban all the hackers a week before a prelim, who has the money to fly then?

I don't see how it would be bad for the community as a whole. I mean it's fun for everyone else to see us all bitching, but as an american I want us all to just be civil to one another.
Or just say fuck it and tell everyone to fuck off. One or the other.

I dont think the hackers were actually banned, I just don't think he's going to go.
according to Paul Brewer (from the email Dino got), he wouldnt be banned unless there was actual proof he cheated during the WCG games, and since he had not received any, Dino wasn't going to be banned (so I'm assuming same for LS).
dunno what's really going on though, I've heard different shit from different people don't know who to believe >.<!

k i won 2-0. lz vs louder now. it's round robin format so if lzgamer loses, he's out, and then me and louder play for seeding. if lzgamer wins, then i play louder and if he beats me then we're all three tied, if i win then louder is eliminated.

I guess they are playing Game 1 on Troy, PvP .

heh ya jake was afraid of troy >< he even was losing to my p on it "my p is BAD" so he said he would just pvp

I still can't believe they would use troy , fuck ;\ it's such a horrible map;.

AH Louder 2-0 LZGAMER ! :D!
Nony + Louder to WCG USA Finals WOOT! congrats David!!!

Good job Nony + Louder!
Definitely going to be an interesting USA final.

Nony won vs me and lz both 2-0, i beat lz 2-0, me and nony advance.
On another note, I got really lucky with builds vs lz AND we had to play troy first so he off-raced. So yeah... also nony is fast.
