Welcome to Week #39 of WarGamingLive tournaments!

Hello! First of all I would like to apologize for all the delays last week. I tried my best to make the tournaments as fast as i could, but due to technical reasons, it took me ages. This week I promise to make everything on time. I would also like to once again thank Awesomeguy for giving me access to his account, so that i could have made the tournaments. Thanks to all for participating, and thanks to the guys who announced the will to help us! Yes! we are no longer short of hosts! :) Dom1511, PS, Pushover and Mythonian will be taking turns and host the upcoming streams. However - if you have both powerful computer and a fast internet connection, then make a chat game with me and leave a note. After all the more the better in terms of crew backup.

Methods of joining:

I will be making a "Lobby" to test whether or not the participants signed up are active.
The lobby is usually opened around 30 minutes before the actual tournament. The lobby will show up in the open tourney listings. So either you can be invited to it, or join it outright.

The easiest way to join lobby tournament is to post here. You will be included in WGL invite list, and will be invited directly into it.

Even if you post here and get thrown on WGL invite list your spot is not guaranteed.
To be included into the WGL tournament, you have to join LOBBY TOURNAMENT first. Then depending on the number of people interested, we will decide how big the real tournament will be. Usually there are slightly less open spots, than people interested. In that case it will be decided following two rules: the priority to join the tournament will be given to the "regular" participants and legends of WGL. Then the other teams will be invited, and we will use first come - first serve rule - whichever team accepts tournament faster gets in.

FAQs

Q: What happens if we don't get a nice number of people that would make the brackets logical?

A: Everyone who joined the Lobby will be thrown into the actual tournament, if the number of people is greater than the bracket, then it becomes a contest of joining fastest.

Q: Who hosts the stream or tournament if none of the hosts can?

A: Unfortunately no one. This is the reason we went a month only having a single tournament each week. We're always looking for new hosts, though!

Q: I don't have a great voice and speak English terribly, but I do want to help the analysis, how do I do so?

A: Add Mythonian or one of the commentators on Skype. We all have Skype up during the tourney and can get your thoughts conveyed.

Q: I signed up, but I'm not getting invited. Why?

A: Message Mythonian or someone on Skype.

Tournament Results and Player Stats:

Stats are done for the Livestreamed 1v1 Tournaments! Check them out here: http://goo.gl/glWHm (choose "1v1s" or "PlayerStats" at the bottom)

Mythonian will be adding 2v2s and more detailed player stats in the near future.

There is an issue with this: People changing their names won't be automatically detected by the system unless I were to have it refresh with the WarLight servers periodically (which I'd prefer avoid doing), so if you change your name and want accurate stats, TELL ME so I can fix it manually!! (also, this won't group stats from Alt accounts unless you tell me to manually adjust it)

Legends:

Heyheuhei: 13 wins 1 tie
Timinator: 13 wins 1 tie
Gnuffone: 11 wins
Malamute: 8 wins
Szeweningen: 7 wins
Frankdeslimste: 7 wins
Gangnam: 5 wins
Myhand: 4 wins

I forgot to check the above list last time, but this time it's up to date, and i have included the substitute tournaments we had for week 37. (made by gnuffone and ps)

Congrats to the winners and legends!

Shame of the time, won't be able to participate :(, Next week I'll try to be in

It's hosted same time every weekend..

we change the hours only on daylight savings time changes (which are different for different countries unfortunately)

countdown to the 1vs1 http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20130615T18&p0=136&msg=Live+Events+%2339+1vs1+

countdown to the 2vs2 http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20130616T17&p0=136&msg=Live+Events+%2339+2vs2

I know I won't be able to play the 1v1 and probably to sleepy to participate in the 2v2

Malamute, I guess you have played a 1v1 on Phobia before, I have never seen the map. could you should us a game where you played on it to see what the game-play is like?

I would do it hedja, but unfortunately neither me nor Gnuffone, who has chosen this template has ever played phobia for a 1v1. :)

Playing something new on the tournament is making it even more fun i guess.. at least for me :)

I am playing gnuff now, personally I think it is not a great template, but could be interesting for 1 tourny :) and always good to mix it around, you are right :D

i will play in both

i will play only 2v2. i cannot for 1v1 :(

Please put me on the invite lists.

I call gnuffone for 2v2

http://warlight.net/MultiPlayer?TournamentID=4850 - A strategic 1v1 on Phobia

I call gnuffone for 2v2

Motocross, sorry but you cannot "call" someone to play with you, they must want to play with you as well...

eheh.
i will don't take this call this time :D

Not sure yet if i'll be around. Even if i do show up i probably won't have the extra machine to host, so i'll only be able play & comment if required. Hope mythonian, pushover or dom will show up to help on the hosting stream front.

Mythonian: would still be cool to get a doc on the setup details if you can provide it.

Malamute: please clean awesomeguy's invite list :p or make the tournament with the setting that allows current users to invite others, so that a couple of us can help you with the transition from lobby to final this time :) should work fine if you invite trusted folks only on the first few minutes.

PS - see skype.


I should be around this weekend :)

i hope i won't forget to join like the last weeks :x
