All games played in that round must be played on the specified map. Before you play your first game of the round you must PM/mail an admin (mogwai, sideshow or muppet) with the race you intend to play in the first game of that round. In game 2 the winner of game 1 will choose race first, and if it goes to game 3 then the winner of game 2 chooses first. You do not need to play game 3 if the first two games are decisive, but you may if you wish.

Where is the fyndir these days? Ready when you are.

Mighty Troll is currently trying to find a time when both himself and Mighty Headshot King are free to get their Round 2 game done, we're both busy people. =O

[Sideshow]

Can we get the replay upload section fixed?

[Muppet]

Not if you want it hacked again ;)

Add them as attachments on the forum and i'll upload them to the correct folder.

[Sideshow]

Cool. Can the winner's edit their posts to attach the relevant replays please? Remember - scores don't count without them!

Also, if anyone still has all the replays from rounds 1 & 2 it'd be helpful if they could post them somewhere.

[Sid]

Perhaps slightly off-topic: a custom-made tournament script for the new site would be really nice, but the one we were trying out for this tournament seems to be full of bugs and generally pish to be honest, as we've found out when someone exploited the upload section. If anyone fancies writing something that can interface with our current PHP site / logins, I'd love it - it'd help take some of the load off of Stuart ( I've given him a whole load of things to code over the summer, already :(). Failing that, it's something we'll try and get done eventually.

[Sideshow]

If you get mod_python (or even just a python interpreter) installed on the server then I'll do it. I'm not using php :)

My replays so far

[gor]

I hope fyndir saved the replays from our games :S

Is this round 3 or round 4 weekend? I have lost track.

[Fyndir]

I hope fyndir saved the replays from our games :S

Err, no. =P

I'm not a masochist, I tend to run away from bad painful things. =P

Took a pounding from muppet last night.

First round I tech for plasma + preists backed up with hellhounds. Expecting his "march o doom" before it came I used all my resources upgrading troops and neglected my eco, so even with most of the map I was still behind where I should have been. A badly timed attack was pushed back by muppet and the relentless march was on. A couple of halts to the march for security and GG.

Second round was more what I was expecting, I rush with CS while capping. CS deals massive damage, (At one point I get accused of 'failing' to stop the LP going up - tell me iain, how do I get my CS to do more damage?) CS rip power and outlying buildings, tech to T1, as per, have to fall back while hellhounds build. Hellhounds are never troubled and its GG.

Third round I tried the same again, hoping that Muppet would assume I'd go the other way. He didn't and I faced a turret with the CS, even 2 priests up they failed to do the damage, muppet saved the turret with good use of builders. From there it followed first match except a much less healthy force on my part, GG.

[Sideshow]

By attacking the workers. Which you weren't.

[--Mogwai--]

i dont think the LP went up.... it was close, but unfinished. it still had the 'being built' animation.

reps???

[YegaDoyai]

Ranged stance does more DPS than CC for all heroes v workers, due to knockback in CC. He was shooting them the entire time. I only have 2 of the reps, I was kinda pissed about the last game and forgot to save it.
