FAQ

1. Are you recruiting?
Yes, always. PM me here or look me up on SEA @ Mezza.445

2. What happened to the Team SG trials in the archive thread??
The trials were specifically for SEA NW2. Unfortunately NW2 is currently still pending and therefore trials have been suspended due to changes in players' time commitment to NW2. New selections will be out once we have a finalised NW2 schedule to field our strongest and most current team at that point in time.

3. Why is the team roster so huge?
Because we're that awesome.

Blizzard's hidden ELO ranking for the top 200 in SEA is finally published and we now have a list of the top 10 SG players on that list. These 10 will be participating in a Round Robin league.

Format
The selection league will be a round robin styled tournament with the top 5 players in points gaining entry into the final Team SG to represent our country at the next Nation Wars. If there is a 5th place tiebreak, head to head score will be the deciding factor. In the event that the match ends in a draw, the draw will not contribute any points and it will be replayed on the same map till a winner is decided.

Each player is to add all the other players to their lists and to arrange matches at their own timing/discretion. If you can't get hold of them, please revert to me of this forum and make it known, I'll facilitate the games. We aim to complete all the games and have a final result by the end of the month of November.

Maps
The first map in each 1v1 matchup will be one of the following 3.
1. Xel'Naga Caverns
2. Metalopolis
3. Lost Temple
The higher seeded player according to the following list will get to ban one map first, followed by the second player, who must then make a choice on which other map to play on. Subsequent matches will be on a loser picks system with the maps from the current ladder map pool, accurate to the most currently Battle.net patch.

Observers/Referees
Kindly please grant access to observation if requested by the following players. aLtnirVaNa, aLtSheepy, ice, altOxygeN, Revenant, Mezza. (basically confirmed team SG players and myself) Additional spectators are allowed at the discretion of both players and only if both players are in agreement, but are discouraged. No referees are needed to start a game but replays will have to be submitted, refer to the section below with regards to replay submission.

Disconnects
Disconnects at >3 mins according to game time are counted as losses unless both players agree to replay the match.

Points system
updated scores will be posted here: http://bit.ly/dtOu22
3 points 2-0 win
2 points 2-1 win
1 point 1-2 loss
0 points 0-2 loss

Replays
It is the winner's responsiblity to email all the replays to me as well as to report the match scoreline to mezzastarcraft@gmail.com
Please tell me the winning margin, 2-0, 2-1
Replays should be named according to this format
player1.xxx player2.xxx game 1 (eg. mezza.445 azzem.544 game 1)
player1.xxx player2.xxx game 2
player1.xxx player2.xxx game 3 (if any)
Please do not redistribute/circulate replays.

SEA BNET ID: Mezza.445
RACE: Protoss
ADDITIONAL INFO: everything else goes here, eg. money/invitational/local/regional tournaments have you won, current ladder rating, previous top 200 SEA placements, etc. All that info goes here!

After long discussion with the team from Season 1 and with the selection deadline in a couple of weeks time, we have concluded that it was technically next to impossible to arrange for a massive round robin style league to select our top 10 due to everyone's real life commitments.
Therefore I went around polling a number of the old team members as well as the new hopefuls and had them pick straight shoo-ins to the team that honestly they felt didn't need to be trailed and the following 5 names were mentioned consistently. As such, they have been automatically granted positions in Team SG for Season 2 of SEA Nation Wars.

1. nirvAnA.929
2. Tendersteak.722
3. OxygeN.278
4. ice.697
5. Revenant.839
