You can only hope it won't result in another Doomthreeish sequel that has nothing in common with original besides some names and genre =\

Point 1: WarCraft 3 Point 2: The current Blizzard dev team has no experience within the past 5 years that applies to anything other than MMORPG tweaks and expansions. Conclusion: Pray they never make a StarCraft 2.

A) Doom III was sweet. B) WC 3 was sweet C) Starcraft was MEGA AWESOME! D) Blizzard ONLY makes "Game of the year" Conclusion: SC will most likely rock. Vatchern, you talking a SC tourny as in SC like ... the old one?

I don't think any progamer has time to make TASes ^^ By the way BW here, am willing to use vanilla SC if other people have no BW.
g,o,p,i=1e4,a[10001];main(x){for(;p?g=g/x*p+a[p]*i+2*!o: 53^(printf("%.4d",o+g/i),p=i,o=g%i);a[p--]=g%x)x=p*2-1;}

I would perfer BW. Also, with the time difference, it may be hard to set a time up for this.

Everyone should learn about Universal time. I mean, really. This is the future already. The age of isolated city-states running on sundials has passed! Now where is my silver jumpsuit and jetpack?!

Actually, they had put out an action RPG (diablo 2) less than five years prior, and there was also an pseudo RPG style scripted map that came with the War3 expansion. Whereas currently, blizzard has not released a new game in five years, nor even worked on a game besides world of warcraft. (except I guess to tweak the balance of starcraft, again...)

Well, I'm starting to play StarCraft more and more now. If anyone wants to play with me, leave your IGN or add "mrmedic" (don't ask about the name please) I suck terribly though, so go easy. =( Haven't played in years, literally. P.S. Is Vatchern pro? :o

1st post: dude1 Ok! Game starts in 5...4...3...2...1... (20 minutes later) 2nd post: dude1 HA! You haven't even done anything yet, newb! I just sent 20 carriers into your base *PWNED* (a couple hours later) 3rd post: guy2 Yeah, well, in those twenty minutes I built like a bajillion corsairs, so myeh! That's what I would expect a Forum Starcraft Tournament to look like. btw, my StarCraft (and WarCraft3) name is ChiefOluk. I only play the "custom maps" cause I'm no good at real battles ^-^; Anyway, StarCraft 2 will inevitably be released at some point in time, but until I read a quote directly from an official Blizzard spokesperson in the line of, "StarCraft 2 (insert cool sequel name here) is currently in development," I'm going to assume that there is NO Starcraft 2 in development. Sorry folks, you're only deluding yourselves!
That's what she said!

IT easy to see that you never played any BW tournament :P I would really like to have this kind of tournament for this forum. If someone actually make a topic for it, I will be glad to help. :)
