Also yeah, just to make sure you know Panda, I'm Random (Flux) not Terran. I only say that because at the end of the commentary on Steppes of War you wished me luck in the tourney but "not really cause I'm Terran" or something like that :lol

And yeah I think playing on 8 player maps is a little much, I didn't realize that was the rules I thought it was Steppes, Blistering and Temple? Maybe I need to learn to read :(

GGs. I'll comment on them later. Didn't expect to random Terran all three games...

Just a warning to anyone that watches them: Terran is my least played race, so I'm really, really bad at managing my SCVs. Behold how many I have standing around doing nothing! (In the third game it is kind of intentional, though)

Me either. :lol

I'm watching them now, It's pretty clear who the better player is, and it's totally helpful to have some good examples externalized, so thanks for that. It's a shame that you were never Protoss or Zerg.

Hey guys, Flux here. Something came up and I had to go out of town yesterday and today. I'm going to start my trek back but I probably won't be back until sometime Saturday. If I could have an extension or something for the second game I'd appreciate it, and if not then I understand.

Yeah no problem, I can play tonight at like 10PM EST, I'll be online.

Also, I am going on a trip to Myrtle Beach tomorrow night for one week, I will be bringing my laptop, however I am not sure there will be free internet access at the place I am staying. So I might be without SC2 until the 28th. I understand the maximum time to play your match is 6 days with the extension so if I can't get online at all next week it's up to my opponent (if I even make it to next round :lol ) and Panda whether or not I will still be able to participate. If I don't make any posts this next week then there's a good chance I can't play.

And if I lose my match with orangepeel then you can just ignore all of this :D

Hey, GAF, I casted my first ever game!

I say some stupid shit in the beginning (and I keep calling Drones "Probes", damn my Protoss roots), but I think I did okay. I did a really quick-and-dirty encoding just to get it up before I leave for a party, but I'll put up a higher quality version when I get home.

Tell me what you think!

near the end you mentioned panda had triple the income of zealous, even though at the time it was only 1100 minerals vs 700 on the income tab :p

Yeah, I looked up at the counter and it was 400, and then I started to say that sentence, and then in the time it took me to say that sentence it rocketed up to 700, :lol :lol

I have a Water v. Vaporak battle uploading now

good game good cast.

something Zeal did actually made think of a question. when the
muta harass was going on at the natural, ZD casted 3 guardian shields, so im wondering... do those stack or was it just a reaction in a hot-spot type thing ?

This next round is going to have a ton of close matches, I suspect. Has everybody that's advanced so far been in the Beta or in the BW group of sad people that couldn't get into the beta at first? I recognize everybody as frequent posters.

Can't speak for the others, but I played Broodwar and the beta, though I did't play Broodwar very seriously.

when i have a toss army that i know isn't guaranteed to win, and that there is a good chance that my little orb spellcaster guys will die, i'll spam guardian shield just so im sure its up for the entirety of the fight, instead of just using it on one unit and having it die immediately. so maybe zealous thought the mutas were going to stay and fight.

Unfortunately I had a last minute RL commitment last night when orange and I were about to play, so I apologize to you orange.

When I signed up for the tournament I had no solidified plans to go on vacation, but now that I'm heading out tonight and I have work all day I think it's time I bowed out gracefully. I doubt I will have time to play next week and since round 2 is technically over already I don't want to delay this tournament any further.

So thanks again Panda for hosting and thanks to Keikaku and Orangepeal for working with me in setting up our matches and being nice in general. If it's at all possible perhaps Keikaku can take my spot and play orange in round 2 instead? I feel bad to be bailing out of the tourney so unexpectedly but hey that's life. GL to everyone in the next round! :D

Wedge is like 900 rating in Diamond. I find that horrifying.

I'm really looking forward to their (Alum/wedge) game, and then the one with whoever wins against you. I think they'll both be pretty awesome sets. All three of you are great players.

wedge def. got lucky against me in round 1 though. I swear I had him! :lol

EDIT: just reread mine and it sounds like i meant that one of them is going to beat you, i meant the ones that wins their game, and then plays against you

Still no word from Alumnus and Wedge?

Any verdict on extending the second round or any DQs? too many people are holding up the tournament =(

I feel like I blew my wad after the first two. The third one was clearly a mess for me, and I sorta just bumbled my way into victory in the last game.

Hrm, gonna try and play my match vs Alumnus tonight hopefully.

Its kinda been tough, as every time I'm on, hes offline, and I guess every time he's online, I've been offline. Everytime I log on, its like, logged off 30 mins ago or whatever, so I always just seem to miss him.

Hopefully we'll both be on later.

EDIT - Incase of any DQ`s for taking too long which is completely understandable, I think I should get DQèd, as I think Alumnus initially wanted to play earlier in the week, but I thought we had alot of time and put it off. So the onus is on me. Plus, he is the reigning champ :p

Ah, just finished our games

gg`s to alumnus, he`ll be putting up the replays

Lets just say the matches were somewhat, anti-climatic, there was a severe beatdown laid out, and it wasn`t by me :p

aww, i was betting on escapingjails avatar for the win. ;_;


gg's. ^^

and since kmills is now on vacation without hearing from him [he opted to give up his spot], i will be advancing orangepeel on to the next round.

which means all third round games are now set!
