King of the Hill, Round 2

[Cpt.Chronic]

Congrats to our newly crowned King, U-238. Who will be his first challenger? Hmmmm....who am I gonna pick, such tough choices....

[Cpt.Chronic]

Hmm, I feel sorry for Blup..he's was so close last time so he gets my sympathy vote.

[B.A.Baracus]

I went with blupp, I wana see how he fairs.

[MidnightGladius]

No vote from me.

[U-238]

Wow, I thought this was going to be a me vs middy no contest type of deal. 4 votes in and blupps already got a strong lead. :o

[Siege_Commander]

take me out please. I cant play sc for a while:cry: i might quit altogether.. I dunno. But i havent played for 2-3 weeks.>.< and i dont know how long i cant play. so yeah.

[Cpt.Chronic]

I can't edit the polls....who do you think I am?...Bush? We'll just not vote for you, how bout that.

[MidnightGladius]

I would edit you out, but in the past, that's been shown to cause much screwing-up of the polls in total. We can just keep that in mind for next time.

[MatGeo]

No vote from me.

U-238: i thought the same thing...

Midy: U have my vote... :tup:

Cpt.Chronic: Make sure i'm not in the next polls coz right now i can't log on to US servers... so i can't play until i fix the problem :(

[blupp74]

I am ashamed to admit it, but i voted for myself :concern:
The reason for this is two-fold: 1# I wanna play sky again, and a best out of 5 would give me the a proper chance (then again, if I lose 3 games then there's no doubt. He simply is better).
Reason #2 is that I get the impression Middy is so much better, and I think he'd kick sky's ass, and then no one would beat him until captain, ahzz and lammy come into the game, and...well...at that point there won't really be any change at the top of the hill.... Boo-hooo....

[MatGeo]

Well i'm not quite sure who is better(midy or sky) but i heard jays saying he was better then sky so if midy wins jays might be a good match... :P

[blupp74]

Well i'm not quite sure who is better(midy or sky) but i heard jays saying he was better then sky so if midy wins jays might be a good match... :P

Yeah, but I meant if Middy wins the poll, I won't get in, cause I'm not beating Middy OR Jays. It's only going up from there.

[U-238]

Well middys got 2 votes, blupps got 7, there's only 2 days left before the poll closes and if the poll keeps going at its current rate then it looks like it's going to be me vs blupp.

[WickedImposter]

*gasp* blupp i cant imagine you voted for yourself. anyways middy im on your side too! :tup:

[MatGeo]

Hmmz midy has 5 votes blupp 9... :/ only 1 day left...looks like blupp's gonna win this one.

[lammas]

I think that jays should be challenger :O

[IrishDutchman]

I voted blupp, but I just got an idea when he said once middy came in, it would be a 5 way game between Chron, Ahzz, Lammas, MG and Jays.
My idea was to start a king of the mound. AKA, the noob KotH!
I can't really add anyone to the list of players, because they might feel insulted. I'll make a thread with a poll later on, but first I'd like some people that are interested to just PM me that they wanna play. I'll decide if they're noob enough. :D

[MatGeo]

I would like to participate in King of the mound(not that i feel like a noob) but it's already settled right now i can't beat any1 here...although i would like to join my server problems aren't over :(

[IrishDutchman]

MatGeo: Sure, you can join. Just for anyone else who wants to join: don't post here. I don't want to end up spamming this thread, just PM me.

[WickedImposter]

i want to oin KotM. i mean, if i joined KotH now id prolyl get pwned.

[Ahzz]

[lammas]

can I join plz?

[U-238]

ROFL! You guys knock it off. -.-

Well sundays over (and the packers lost again damnit! :<) and I guess blupps the winner. So I'll get on his case I suppose.

[blupp74]

Yeah...and I already have plenty of bad feelings, considering how my last games have gone.

Anyways, we'll have to find appropriate times to play... I can't be on very late during weekdays (work and all)...around 1 am my time. And I still have the gf and the baby and...well...we'll have to squeeze it in, is all.
Taking all 5 games (or probably only 3...) at once might not work though. We'll see.

[MatGeo]

Well, ahzz you know I didn't actually pm nasty to be in the kotm he added me by himself(not that I mind or anything but just so you'd know).

[Ahzz]

and I didn't complain about you, its to someone else ;P

[Cpt.Chronic]

Ok, so it's set. Blup vs. U-238 for KotH. Like last time, try to get the games played before the week's end, 3 out of 5, starting on Dawn of Fate map.

Lammy, I'm going to be adding Jays to the next poll, along with myself and Grog.

[U-238]

In other words: This is probably my last week as "king" >.<

Nice, I always wanted to see GroG play.

[blupp74]

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Where others seem to be improving, I get the feeling I'm getting worse. So you can probably look forwaard to meeting MG next round :/

[U-238]

nono what I mean is if chronic's adding himself and jays to the next poll then I probably won't be "king" much longer. Jays has beaten me recently and even though I havn't played chronic in a while (which is probably why he put me in the first poll instead of the second. -.-) I probably won't be able to beat him just yet.

[MatGeo]

Nice, I always wanted to see GroG play.

I've played with GroG once. He is good.And yes adding grog chronic and jays to the poll will even out the scales.

[blupp74]

Ah, so you mean you think you'll beat me easily. Hmpfh.
well, you're probably right, but I'll try to put up a fight.

Played Jays as Z the other night, and even though he won, I lasted pretty long (and at times I thought I might actually win).

[U-238]

yea same happened here. I just hate ZvP because archons and HTs take out everything Z can throw up against it.

[blupp74]

yea same happened here. I just hate ZvP because archons and HTs take out everything Z can throw up against it.

I meant he was Z. I was T, as usual.

Hopefully we can play tonight, but I can't tell for sure yet.

[U-238]

oh, that makes a large difference. His main race is P.

[MatGeo]

I meant he was Z. I was T, as usual.

Hopefully we can play tonight, but I can't tell for sure yet.

Ya sky is right it would be much harder to play jays in TvP.

[blupp74]

Ya sky is right it would be much harder to play jays in TvP.


Errm...yes, I know this. You don't think it would be a large difference if I was Z facing his T? I'd be the horriblest Z ever imaginable.

[IrishDutchman]

yea same happened here. I just hate ZvP because archons and HTs take out everything Z can throw up against it.
I hate PvZ, ultralurkerling can take out anything you throw against it. -.-

[Ahzz]

that's why, if you get to that point, you should have huge amount of exps and possibly arbs coming. if you freeze the lurkers before they burrow, you'll be pretty good if you did the right stuff

[WickedImposter]

sorry ahzz didnt read that. thanks for clearing that up. anyways, i tihnk that jays and them should be introduced maybe next week, at least one of them.

[GroG]

When is this match scheduled to be played (or when is the due date on the games)?

[Cpt.Chronic]

It's supposed to be done by today. But that's just a tentative schedule. Blupp and U-238 are on different sides of the world so finding a convenient time for both players is not the easiest thing to do. If all else fails, hopefully they can get it done this weekend.

[blupp74]

We got semi-lucky last night and almost managed one game. Unfortunately I had baby trouble in the middle of it, and then skiddy had to leave.
So we'll have to do it some other time....hopefully this weekend, as you say.

Anyway, here's the unfinished game.

[Cpt.Chronic]

Time's up :|

There are 3 options available.
1) Play the games today
2) Blupp forfeits and U-238 remains KotH and will play in the next round
3) Both forfeit and we vote for 2 new players for the next KotH instead of just 1

U-238, since you're residing KotH, you decide which option. Keep in mind if you choose option 1 and y'all still don't play, then you will both be disqualified and we will go with option 3.

[U-238]

Well option one is out of the picture since it's past his night over there now (didn't see this until post time).

I'd hate to go with option 2 since it doesn't seem fair to blupp.

And 3 doesn't seem fair to either of us.

Well since most of this is my fault due to a huge lack of time how about I'll forfeit and let blupp take my place? I just don't really have the time anymore and havn't played starcraft much at all since last thursday.

[Cpt.Chronic]

Well, none of the options are fair, but they are necessary if we want to keep this thing rolling. I didn't include a 4th option for your forfeit and Blupp to take KotH because he seems to have even less time than you and he already pm'ed me that he would take a forfeit if y'all didn't play the games.

Let me just say this: Blupp is now disqualified. It is your choice if you want to remain KotH or give up your spot for 2 new players. If you think you will have enough time to play during the next week then you should remain, if not, then you should give up your spot.

[U-238]

well if the poll ends this upcoming sunday then I'll try to squeeze it in next week. However if the new challenger is selected this week and the games have to be played this week then I'm out.
