Some Actual Day Details

There will be a sudden death condition at some point of time. Players who have not been eliminated by the 45th minute mark, will be told what it will be and when.

No Secret Alliances are allowed. This is FFA afterall.
However temporary alliances are allowed. You can only discuss/negiotiate/make them in game (using general game chat so that everyone is in the know). Such alliances after being negiotiated should last only for about 3-5 game minutes. They should not last the whole game.

ROOTProbe:

I thought i just cannon rushed titan 4 times :D

[syfMightyKiwi]

Regarding the one queen per hatch. if i just put down say 30 hatches does that mean i am allowed to make another 30 queens?

Quick Comments

	asdfSchnitzel:	so meta
	VorteX:	In this case..nem should make it one hatchery per base only...lol
	syfChase:	What if my base is not located anywhere near an expansion?

You can do that BUT the queens are only used for injects (larvae) and creep spread and cannot be used as part of an attacking army.

If an air unit accidentally flies over a queen and the queen attacks it, it's fine but to intentionally be attacking it as part of an attacking army will be disallowed. Each queen should be attached to only 1 hatchery for the Air FFA. So I don't think this will be a huge problem.

If you do have 30 hatcheries built at the same base with 30 queens, then I guess we just have to see that happen cos I think that would be hilarious.

I guess so as long as your using them stictly for injects and creep spread. I would think any sight of them being used as an army might call for a disqualifying.

[TtSYF.tRoy]

Firstly Ground only disallow Overseers ?
i demand to see a drone all in.

[ToRRedemption]

what if stuff flys past your base and your queen happens to kill it, and it was an auto attack. Does that call for disquaification?

I think it doesnt take too much common sense to tell the difference between queens in ur base, and making 30 hatcheries to make an army of queens.

ToRRedemption:

i missed the fly past your base bit, not relevant to the 30 bases comment :P hahhaa

	fray`Alpha:	lol thats what i thought last time. but raven good unit. lets see how good it is now :P
	mGGPrometheus:	even better lol

Skytoss y'all screwed MUAHAHAHA.

[Philosopher]

I'm joining this.

[Kopi]

i'm not going to miss this again >: )

[VorteX]

At this point in time...I can join this Funday on Sunday!

Question, how is this FFA actually works? We all pick air or ground and take it into FFA? One player picks air and another player pick ground? How does one going air can defend from ground units (that can be rushed)? or are we have one game of FFA for ground and another game for FFA for Air.

[mGGNemesis]

It's basically 2 games. One is Air only FFA, the second is Ground only FFA.

I'm targeting a minimum of 8 players for a full map for maximum fun. If we have 12 players then we'll split into 2 6-player maps; if we have 16 players we'll split into 2 8-player maps.

If there are other interested players who want to be referees with me, please let me know. One recalls Zeratul as one of my helpful referees in the last games.

Also, anyone interested to cast this, please pm me. Thxs.

One More Important Note :
No Secret Alliances are allowed. This is FFA afterall.
However temporary alliances are allowed. You can only discuss/negiotiate/make them in game (using general game chat so that everyone is in the know). Such alliances after being negiotiated should last only for about 3-5 game minutes. They should not last the whole game.

[ToRFutureBoy]

I might be keen on this but is it on SEA? If so can I suggest changing to another server due to the lag that will come with that many players....?

Okay...at his time...me still can make it for the Funday

[VorteX]

About an hour left to go!! Cant wait to have a go in this Funday!!!!

[x5.Stormz]

Guys its starting!!!

[mGGNemesis]

I will upload some pictures tomorrow.

For now, just a simple summary for the Air FFA Battles :
All started well with little skirmishes and small harassments.
mGGSouth and Slinky however soon were the first to engage in a major battle. Whilst mGGVortex tried to mass bcs, mGGAbyssal and QEDdrAkiuS were massing Vikings and some banshees, TCPStormz was quietly massing a huge army. When he revealed his mass mutalisks and corrupters army to mGGthoth, he soon quickly proved what a threat he really was. And singlehandedly destroyed each opponent systematically.

1st : TCPStormz, 2nd : mGGIrish, 3rd : mGGSouth
Special mention to Irish who somehow managed to survive till end of game.

Summary for the Ground FFA Battles
The more interesting of the two battles, we saw mGGXaether attempting a nexus first in a FFA. This proves deadly as mGGSouth discovers it and the nexus is gone. Returning home, he further discovers that mGGAbyssal his other neighbour, has also cannoned rushed him from the other side. So was the first to gg out.
Cheese galore continued. TCPStormz pylon cannoned blocked mGGthoth in his base. And so mGGthoth decided to use the all too scary nydus. When the first cry of the nydus was sounded, everyone was at their edge wondering where it was. Poor mGGvortex was its first victim.
However, the most epic battle would be between TCPStormz and mGGSouth. Both had massed an epic powerful toss army each. Both had 3-2-3 upgrades. Stormz had 12 colossus, 4 immortals, 8 archons and some sentries. South had 9 colossus, 5 immortals, 4 archons. But South proves he is the better and more experienced toss. Spreading his army properly before engaging and all his previous harassments to Stormz finally paid off. Even though stormz used hallucination to make 4 more colossus, his superior army was soon torn apart by South. (too gosu)

1st : South; 2nd : QEDdrAkiuS 3rd : TCPStormz
Special mention to QEDdrAkiuS who was so frightened of the 2 huge toss armies moving around (but they were more worried about each other and hence left him alone till the end)

Hope everyone had fun ^_^

Yeah I did enjoyed....thanks for hosting it Nemesis!

For Air Units Only FFA...It's first time using Sky Terran in a game! haha Very expensive endeavor, with very limited bases to take. It was challenging to grab expos, where your opponent's also wants the base as well...lol...at the end no gas to make more BCs (but i floated heaps of Minerals) and lost

For the ground Only FFA. Since i guessed at that time there probable would be mass colossi and mass swarm host. My Marines and Marauder won't be enough without the medivac support (no air units, so no medivac). Even with medivacs MMM can be beaten quite easily against colossi and swarm host. So i tried to mech (for the first time) and failed miserably, from that Nydus from gosu Thoth...haha

I should i just went marine and maraduers and tanks instead lol

Hope everyone had fun!!!

[QEDdrAkiuSs]

Wow, thanks SO MUCH for posting this and I know I'm super late and NO ONE is going to read this haha.

Although I rarely play starcraft 2 anymore (more on LoL), I still like to look back at the game and what it was like in the 'good old days'. XD

Looking at the post I can really say I had a lot of fun playing starcraft 2 and thanks so much to the community of sc2 it really was great, even when there were moments where I would get pissed off lol.

Even thought no one will read this xD and really im not important at all i just really wanted to say thanks to the community especially my clan QED and mGG and MANY OTHERS that have made this game memorable.

I hope to see you all soon someday :P!!

But for now GG!
