It's silly to even need another id in the first place, but if you're playing in a tournament I don't see how a user id affects your game-play in a strategy game, you will still need to play well and counter what they are doing...
Anyway, I was trying to watch some games I thought this tournament already started, where are the vods and where can I find out what's coming up next? Since the organizer is banned will it be on gg.net or something?

Still confused about one thing.. the guy that's on the counter-abuse team is also playing? i.e. there's someone who has access to all of his opponent's replays (and builds)? ...right. On that note you guys might want to stop posting your rep pack in public.
Also I'm still super unclear on what the "good reason to smurf" is.
From the interview^ + Show Spoiler + iCCup.GeckoXp: What were the reasons for smurfing?
JoeKim: From my experience as an Admin of many sorts and organizer for events: playing and orchestrating simultaneously causes more drama and bigger headaches in addition. Already upon 12 hours of my aka being revealed I have had a handful of players informing me that they would have not played against me if they knew my AKA.
iCCup.GeckoXp: This «would have not played against me if they knew» argument, doesn't it apply for other players like sziky?
Joe Kim: Sziky is privileged to be playing at a timezone vs koreans and a scene where he is not known. My timezone conflicts and i get mostly foreigners that know who I am. Many that know my playing style which also ties to many of which knew I quit BW. I had more reasons before the ladder started.
USA above B rank Random player can only be me or Game. Even Zerg would give it away. But there are enough complications to make it well-fortified… if the wording is right.
For other reasons: I don't know how to word it. I don't want to give too much away, but I had complications with the Head Admin over my departure from the crew. That created a lot of tension.
iCCup.GeckoXp: Okay, but why the dutch flag?
Joe Kim: Well, along with smurfing comes strategy, hotkeys, personality, attitude, etc. Ret was one of my favorite foreigners, Amsterdam is one of the places I'd love to go, dutch girls are hot, Netherlands has an awesome soccer team, and to top it off:one of the worst BM kids I've met was from the Netherlands. So I figured, I would be the biggest douchebag to conceal who I am. I purposely did the gayest strats, said the worst improper things, and came up with somewhat inconceivable excuses.

I think this thread got spotlighted at some point.

I think Joe Kim is justified. I don't think he should be banned or punished.
Even though Idra was probably at a disadvantage in the TSL2...even some of the Koreans knew who he was.

Also I'm still super unclear on what the "good reason to smurf" is. joekims on the counter abuse team? Lol thats pretty sus. Seems like theres alot of holes appearing in this tournament as time goes by. I realise that organising something like this is alot of work, but "reasons for smurfing" seems dumb to me too. Takes away some of the drama of the ladder if the good players are smurfing, you dont know who's at the top...

UPDATE:
Replay packs Game has: + Show Spoiler +Sznycel Eonzerg sOte Zaraki Zerggboy Ace Bakuryu Deska Soul Playa Terror Michael Dsaqwe TTF Julia Soko FleSs Gotunk Jumper Shauni Bishop Dragon GoD Choosy Scan Astro Ramms Roman012 Yayba Stimquick Semih Technics Sziky BigPio Dollar Various Kazik Skzlime Fakap-_- Szajna Spx Mamon Napoleon Alfiomerda Kashu Time Voddy Zork Heme SouthPark Gosudark Casper Cute
Replay packs Game needs: + Show Spoiler +Trutacz Gucci Sizarina R-Must Octzerg Kr Castro Pike 3acaga Bzium Donzo
If you cannot reach Game at Skype, use an alternative method. All replays must be to Game by February 27th, 2011 by 3PM EST/ 21 CET.
Additionally: Files should be named using the following format: islYOURNAMEHERE.rar
Replay Release: Players should immediately stop releasing their replay packs to the public.
The top 6 group picks: + Show Spoiler +Ace: Jumper, Roman012, Dollar Sziky: vOddy, TTF, DragOn Ramms: BigPio, Bakuryu, sOte Sznycel: Gotunk, Napoleon, Zaraki Stimquick aka JoeKim: Playa, Cute, Scan AstrO: Donzo, Sizarina (possible DQ so 2nd choice is Fakap-_-), CastrO
The rest of the groups will be released within 6 hours of the replay pack deadline, along with the 4 invites.
To answer AstrO from the iCCup.com ISL page: The 4 players from each group will be put in a randomizer, so the order is not predictable. The maps also are changed (2 switches), so be sure to check them please.
Map Changes: 1v3 group Fighting Spirit 2v4 group Colosseum II
1v4 w vs w HitchHiker 2v3 l vs l Destination
4v3 w vs l Heartbreak Ridge (Rough copy) As you can see, HitchHiker has been switched with Colosseum II to make the first two rounds on more popular 4 player maps for equality purposes. You can download Hitchhiker here: http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/maps#tblt-3473-1-default-0-hitchhiker

Winner vs Winner on map I've never heard of, they might just lose to avoid the map
|
|
Map Changes: 1v3 group Fighting Spirit 2v4 group Colosseum II
1v4 w vs w HitchHiker 2v3 l vs l Destination
4v3 w vs l Heartbreak Ridge
this is confusing. Is it W vs W on Hitchhiker or 1v4? 2v3 or L v L for destination? Because they arent necessarily going to be the same thing.
And am I right in saying that I am #4 in group 2, based on the order listed above? Or is it "randomized" and I still have to wait to find out which maps I play on?

Im happy with my group. Im against ACE so ill just have to rape him ;P
