The probleme is the choice of your maps, nobody cares about water maps, mean nothing to add water map even in the tier 1 because 3 players like braviet, swagier and spb enjoy water map.

Plenty of people play water maps.  You're just upset that you have no idea how.

Tora I think you should keep maps other than GOW, but sub something else in for NWTR.  That map is so unorthodox it might as well be a custom.

You could use a substitute of something like pos low to give a change of resources. Plus numerous people play it.

I'm not against NWTR at all, I just threw in a replacement of a map that would test resource skills other than high. NWTR used to be a really competitive and it was played by some of the greatest Gow players of all time, Yah'mon, khb, scrubbo, viruz, etc.

Due to enormous player feedback it has been decided that this Saturdays tournament will feature only Garden of war.

I believe the best way to host the Tier 2 tournaments is to feature 1 map. Whether it be Gow, Pos, Gsew, etc.

Good luck this Saturday to all who will attend.

That is a pity :-(

I was really pump up for the map variety.
Just to give my penny on the topic... I think the best mix would had been:

GoW EF High
PoS BNE EF Low
FoC EF (or even F) High

Don't take me wrong, I really like and play a lot HSC but FoC I think it is more suitable to test the skill on a water map as there is not an easy hop.
NWTR is a very cool map and I think it deserves a tournament by it self.

ps: I will most probably participate for the experience! As I said I haven't managed to work WarVideo but I doubt that I will reach the finals.

Thank you for the good ideas. I am glad someone is actually writing something useful instead of the typical trolling and flaming.

Alt-Tab out when your in a game lobby and open Warvideo and start recording, after the game tab out, stop it and make sure to save the file

Thank you for the nice words.

Thanks for the advice Winchester, but the problem is I'm playing on Linux and not on windows. Alt-tab does not work with wine (well it works but it gets confused with the different resolution and I cant see the warvideo window).

I might be able to use hypercam but that I will have to try out first! (One of the many tasks I have pending).

Cheers

Ok, I will participate in tonight's tournament but two things have happened today that contribute to that I will not win.

1 - I have purchased a new computer chair.
2 - I cut off a piece of his finger when I cooked.

For this reason the outcome remains uncertain, and anybody can win! gl hf
