Tracking the games won't be a problem at all even if full matches aren't complete. I might be able to get the spreadsheet done today for the tracking. I'll most likely do it in google docs so it can be viewed by others. However, with that said, if we set the minimum to 4 games per week it will take 12 weeks for the tournament to end, assuming that people only play 4 games per week. Personally i don't think 6 games per week is out of the questions. That's 2 game

more info: http://www.maximumpc.com/article/news/valve_announces_sequel_warcraft_3_mod_defense_ancients i do like the coaching system idea, but i do think that this game will suck compared to demigod. (at least demigod has very interesting demis, fantastic graphics, awesome music, zoom & map rotate)
Actually it is that easy. They just have to use the changes that were made in uberfix. The code modifications are already done thanks to the Ptarth (and anyone who helped him). It took months and months for them to fix the Sedna High Priests exploit and the only change required in the code was 1 number. The location of this number was already provided by the community as well. Yes they would still have to test it, but there are plenty of us who would be willing t
Orcun confirmed that it is pronounced Or-Chin :)
Wow i was not expecting that from valve. I will reserve judgment but it is not looking good.
For Whom The Bell Tolls is an excellent book - by Ernest Hemingway though so hopefully your mistake just occurred in the forum and you didn't actually pick Nathaniel Hawthorne (from Massachusetts, so i think you're safe) - who is most famous for the sleep inducing book The Scarlet Letter.
I heard about it not too long ago, a voice actor for the game tweeted about it and it got spread through the nets. (I have no use for twitter at this time lol) I'm excited for the game, but won't play it unless it has zoom and rotate lol. j
[quote]still waiting for George to finish A Dance Of Dragons[/quote] yea no kidding! I'm currently 2/3rds of the way into book 3. I was almost finished with book 1 when the friend who implored me to read it informed me the whole series hasn't been written yet. I wasn't very happy about that since i like to read all books in a series back to back. My friend did tell me though that there is a good stop point at the end of book 3 and another friend told me to go
IN1 do a quick forum search for Lagwars Vent, download ventrillo and join us (even if you don't have a microphone). while you may not have a permanent partner, you will have a group of dedicated players that will be willing to play. Just look for the Gentlemen channel. J
Well I'm Jon Galt obviously.... The 26 at the end of my name comes from the unavailability of the name and was suggested by hotmail sometime in the mid 90's so i just kept it for some accounts. Most games have a login name then a separate screen name but not demigod. By the time i learned how to change the account name i had already started posting in the forums and met a bunch of people in the game so I figured i'd just keep it. I typically go by Ragnar or some form of it, based
Cheapassgamers already has the sale posted, i also just posted on fatwallet.com I copied your description Pacov :) thanks! lol I dont have time today to type up a separate one. j
well i would love to play with him again !
Proposed rule: Zen_God is required to ressurect all players who decease during the tournament. j
[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="1708" id="2800706"]Thanks, Jon! I went with the cooler master. Picked it up on amazon with free shipping for $25.XX (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002G1YPH0?tag=invihand-20). Firefox has a nice addon that performs searches when you look for products and show's you the best price.

I forget what the current champion is (per maxpc.) The cooler master #2 below was dethroned in the most recent maxpc issue. Unfortunately i tossed the issue out already and they haven't updated their site yet. It is more expensive than the hyper 212 and while the perform
Nice post Orion !
Saul I'll play with you anytime and won't bitch one bit ! I still owe you a few games too since you kindly played against me nom & thunder to let us practice for the tourney! DOn't let a few dickheads ruin the game for you! You're also more than welcome to join us on vent !
[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="1680" id="2799209"] I'm curious - how many of you guys live in close proximity to each other? I know kal and I are both in Ohio. Jon is in PA. And apparently Jona and Zen are in the same place.[/quote] what funny is that i lived in louisville, KY and cinci & st clairsville OH as well lol
Pacov, you mustve replied while i was typing sorry about that. I can certainly understand the position of not going back to stardock. They've been more the generous. I don't think the current option of one person from the teams that finish all of their games, winning a token amount of cash is a very effective motivator. The intent of the raffle is to provide a motivation for completion. I also think that taking even more money from the pot would be detrimental
"1 player prize is not enough to ensure participation if the odds are bad. But 3 certainly is." I agree with this statement. Pacov, would you mind asking brad if they would be willing to throw in a few copies of "X" (elemental, windowblinds etc.) I know they've already done a lot and i hate to go back to them but we're trying to provide an incentive to the teams. One person winning wouldn't provide much of an incentive and if we add enough money to make it
I have to agree with hedgie (and pacov) on this. What we're trying to prevent is the early game spamming of the citadel with spirits. Only a few people in the game do it. It's a cheese tactic that we all know and hate. The primary builds for that type of cheese we're listed above. Making a blanket rule like "no spirits on citadel ever" will hurt a hybrid oak even further even though he is already a "high point" demigod. j
I agree with Nana #4 there. It's ok to attack the citadel with your minions if and only if you are there with them. Since we are playing 3 games for each match. I Have another rule addition/proposition: If a team loses two of the games then for the third game they get to choose which side they are on (light/dark)
Hedgie, Shane & Pacov are the panel, with Lord Orion as an alternate (for when one of them aren't available or when there is a conflict of interest). Nom graciously stepped aside for Hedgie since Hedgie declined to play in the tournament. This, of course, made hedgie the perfect judge since he could be completely objective in the decision making. As you recall, hedgie was also a great person to discuss strategy with since he wasn't playing. [e digicon
Well shipping isn't free, that's for sure, but with the post office offering flat rate boxes it's hardly expensive at all.
You beat me to it Pacov, thanks for tallying the current vote system. As far as the pot is concerned we currently have $520 in-hand but i still need to upload my portion which will occur by the end of the month. This means an abolsute pot min. of $620.00 however based on the confirmed pledges we will be close to $700.00 we could do a percentage for the raffle, like 5% ($35) or 7% ($49) and take those percentage points off the 1st, 2nd 3rd place winners equally across the board
