So with this new patch, what is the go with Disconnects? apparently we can take control of replays.
Good point. I'm curious too. Though has anyone tested out this feature yet?

Ohh man.. I don't know what time ill be home but something has come up for me and I won't be able to start for TA this week! Sorry. Hopefully both teams can depict rather than TA getting WO first game ;;
EDIT: Just read about the patch, no way I can download that in time, my net is so bad I'd need to do it over night ;_;
With the new features that the patch has brought us, the following is in effect (ie. it applies this week too!):
Should a player Disconnect, the match will be replayed from where the replay stops.
Should said player Disconnect for a second time, the recommended action is to wait for another rematch. If the interest of time becomes an issue, contact an Administrator immediately and a decision will be made.
That is all. Thanks

Would like to thank everyone in the team and pX for helping out and raising to the occasion despite the delays and lags and all things terrible. Thxs pressure for both casting and helping me out with the admin for Team 1 when I had to look out for Team 2 (until DrGoose could take over).
Thank you everyone for the nice games

Im just wondering if there is any way to stop players from looking at full vision during that replay? what is the procedure to make sure they don't watch every thing in the replay while fast forwarding to the point the game disconnected spotting that tech switch or spotting that hidden base.
Or is it based around honor system much like streams running at the same time are?

From my experience of it, the host of the resume presses go and then the match resumes. The only way they can look at the replay is via the normal method of opening the replay. If you see the person go in game (watching replay) before you invite them into the replay recovery lobby, then they are cheating and should be forfeited.
yeah I wasnt aware the of recover ability. I Thought it was only the take command. So yeah players dont need to go through the replay to recover the game (which I thought they did) for others unsure of it I suggest watching this video just released by blizzard. Definitely cleared things up for me
As far as restarting from replay goes, will have to experiment with it, but I would think that and admin would go in and host it, then invite the players back in, and be in charge of pressing go.

This is good point, will need to actually go do it to see who sees what etc

After watching the video above, you can see that you dont need to watch the replay to continue the game. There is an option where u put in a time (5 seconds before the end of the game for example) and the game will load into that. then need to be unpaused to start. With this you wont go through the replay and thus what I was worried about wont come into it.
I was thinking that the only way to recover a game is with the Take Command option. But they are 2 different (though similar) things.
Still continuing to update the OP as I was away moving house. Have gotten as far as the points table and round six, sorting brackets etc.Will have full results in OP and some stats etc tonight. If you want to change something in your line up I will do some changes tonight too, so pm me with additions, race changes etc.
I am personally pretty disappointed to come back to see some teams may not have been as forthcoming with players actual skill levels, This is a plat/diamond division, yet we have been open in agreeing those promoted to masters or that had been masters or above could play but only ace. Playing these players as starter "Platinum" players is not only unfair on the other teams who do play by the rules, but its just plain bad sportsmanship!
I urge team representatives to stay up to date with the skype conversation, many people still messaged me after I had said I would be away. Updates, discussion etc all happens in that conversation, if you don't think someone is representing your team well, ask to replace them, literally everything for T4 is discussed there but some teams are either not getting the information, or just blatantly disregarding it.
Only a couple of weeks left in the group stages before the playoffs, almost time to crown our T4 champion!
