This is a resource to store formats, templates, banners and any other tool for a Live Report thread. In so many words: Just like the Brood War Tournament Forum has.
At this point I'm going to steal whatever I can from Dropbear and reorient it to SC2. Credit goes to him for most of the thread.
No Live Report Thread and it's about to start? No problem. Follow these simple steps and even you can be MrCon.
- 1. Don't panic.
2. Go to SC2 Tourneys forum and select create new topic (it's at the top).
3. Browse through this thread and select the items you require. Remember that a banner and results/recommended games sections are the bare minimum for a decent LR.
4. Copy the coding that corresponds to the images you need. Paste them into your new live-report thread!
5. Please credit the people responsible for the items you use. They worked hard to make them!
6. Don't forget to use bolding, centering, spoilers and to TLPDise (the little red hydralisk button).
NOTE ON TLPD! + Show Spoiler +
Underneath the calendar on the right hand side of TL is a section headed TLPD. The dropdown menu is automatically set to BW (Korea). Changing this to SC2 (International)/ SC2 (Korea) BEFORE you do your TLPDising should eliminate problems with bw profiles for sc2 players. Alternatively you can just change tlpd#players#135#Z Z to their current race and add #sc2-international or #sc2-korea as a hotfix.
7. Once you finish your beautifully crafted thread, open a new tab of the Tournament Forum and hit refresh. Is there already a thread for the tournament? Does it reach at least the minimum expectations? If not, then go ahead and post! If so, then you are yet another unsung hero lost in the midst of thousands of posts. Don't worry, I still love you.
8. Update the thread as the match progresses with results etc.
9. OPTIONAL: In the OP, include a section bookmarking the start of each game in the thread. (Thanks to Jubinell for the idea and CoffeeJelly for testing)
10. OPTIONAL: Check Featured News or the Starcraft 2 forum for articles and threads relevant to the tournament. A article by TL Writers can be the sprinkles on a sundae or the shot of chambord in a martini. In other words: TL Hype is classy. If available then don't neglect it!
Once you get the hang of it you'll see it's easier than staying awake.
Just like a LR thread this will be a work in progress ^_^ Please post any feedback, inclusions; exclusions or anything else that fits the theme of the thread. This will only be as useful as the contributions posted in it!
