Otixa and I might have maybe a few hours this evening if our packing wents well. We'll see. There aren't a lot of maps though, but we can still play ^^
if you guys do that then good luck... i migth be around to play aslwell but... i havent slept for like 24hours.... and i just managed to finnish my goal of buying some choco pudding... ((dident find any blasted milk though.... *weeps* )) so i'm reaaaaaaaaaaaally tired.... so all in all... hope it's fun and that you guys manage to record as much as possible oh and btw... not many maps? o.o when i was on last night there seemed to be a bunch of new maps O.o
Oh and to all three of you... ((Tinman,Otixa,Xaragoth)) thanks for having the will to do this stuff in the first place it's really fun both playing with you all and watching you guys play... 'cept for when you team up on me xD but yeah... you guys are awsome and no i'm not talking about making the live thingy... i just mean that you guys are generaly the focus points of the stream xD
now if you'll excuse me.... i'm gonna try and stay awake untill a custom live either starts or i faint.... whatever comes first... probably fainting..... so you guys have fun xD oh and good luck with all the irl stuff you guys are up to o.o
I am setting up some team pages for Custom Live that I hope will make things easier to manage, I might actually script up some fancy stuff at a later date for map suggestions and so on.
But for now a simple reply on the right page is all we need ;)
When you go to the below link there will be a button called Pages at the top where you can see all the pages, right now there are just a few, the main page, live stream and map suggestions, I will add most links to the main page for easy access and also a "back" button on all the sub pages so eventually it would be very nice and user friendly to brows around in.
Here is the link to the main page, still quite empty but you can post replies there with thoughts, suggestions or general chit chat. http://www.sc2mapster.com/teams/c-l/pages/main/
You can also donate, all donations are greatly appreciated and will be used to fund future tournaments, you and/or your crew/company/gang/ or w/e you donate on behalf of will obviously get a shutout on our live shows and also be listed on a thanks to page if desired.
I want to thank everyone for their support once again, and I hope we would be able to continue with this for a terribly terrible long time.
Right now I think this is something I would want to do for a very long time, no show is ever the same, I get to play a bunch of great maps and meet a bunch of great people. Would be nice to go big and pro with this to get as much attention around custom maps and the mapping community as possible, as of right now I do this only for my love and passion for custom maps!
In only 9 hours and 55 minutes from this post the next live show will start.
For people who have not figured out yet I have set up a page where you can "submit" and suggest maps, and post other comments, this way its easier to sort out instead of reading through PMs and Replies here.
Still if you have a "secret" map that you just want to show the community you can either e-mail me or PM me, those details are also on the page.
Here are the current pages set up.
The main page has quick links to all of them, or you can click the pages button in the navbar.
I wish everyone a lot of fun, since I'll probably not make it for todays show. My Dad's Birthday is today and while its going to be just us here, we still wanna go and eat some Steak :> I might hop in on a later time and yell at you for doing stupid things though. Play Catalyst at the end of the show, I wanna join in :p
Alright, last show was pretty short due to the lack of new map submissions and suggestions/recommendations.
As said earlier I have set up a page now dedicated to take map suggestions and I urge people to use that as its allot easier to see the suggestions, they are also sorted the other way placing new at the top, making it even better.
You can find the page here, just look at the already posted suggestions to get an idea on how to do it, there is also a little information above on the page also. http://www.sc2mapster.com/teams/c-l/pages/map-suggestions/
I am working on a suggestion form where you can type in map name, upload the map and set it as private, it will then e-mail it to me with the details keeping the map private for testing only (not needed just optional), you can also type in a description, and why we should play the map on the show.
There will also be a semi dynamic list that will update with the current suggestions sent in through the application form, with that we can see a easy list of maps to try and also check them as played and in what show they were played, that way if you wanted to see a particular map played and its already been played you can find out what episode it is in.
This is sill a work in progress, and I am not the best of scripters in the world so its taking some time to finish, if you do have a good knowledge about this stuff though contact me if you want to help out, it will most likely only be php and SQL with integration between the two, server is already set up to handle it, just need the code and database set up for it. Then use a iFrame on this page: http://www.sc2mapster.com/teams/c-l/pages/map-suggestions/
to implement it with ease.
Basically like this:
This page gets a link to a php form: http://www.sc2mapster.com/teams/c-l/pages/map-suggestions/
The php form has some fields where you can enter your nick, e-mail, map name, map version (optional), upload map (optional), map description (optional but recommended) and a captcha for safety reasons.
When sent it adds it to the SQL database and sends me a e-mail notification with the form and a link to accept it, when I accept it adds a 1 in the database in a accepted field, when the php list sees that it gets added to the list, this is to prevent spam and other inappropriate stuff.
When the map is accepted and on the list it can be seen by everyone.
When a map has been played I can go into a administration panel and set show number and date on it, it will then be marked as played and sorted under un-played maps, still sorted by date of submission, I can also accept or remove maps from the administration panel.
With that it would be easier for me to see what maps to play, what we have played and what is suggested, its also easier for everyone else to see what has been played, and what is going to be played also when a map was played and where to find the episode it was played in.
So as you can see there is allot of changes being made, all for the better I would hope, so again if you are skilled with php and SQL please contact me as I would love all the help I can get!
Thanks for all your support and I will be seeing you guys this Friday at 6PM CET!
PS. I will also be getting a domain name for custom live, and maybe a dedicated site for it, I will still be using SC2Mapster of course its mostly to hold the forms and such so you wont need to go on multiple websites.
PPS. Domain is bought, should be sc2cls.com thats short for StarCraft2 Custom Live Show ;)
Right now its just parked, but I will get some placeholder stuff up soon.
I already own a host, hosting this does not require much, and I have gotten some really good deals from some companies I have been in touch with before.
So the hosting is already payed for the next 20 years or so, something I bought like 5 years ago, I have like 5 domains on it now so its not a problem.
The only thing I would love help with funding is the tournaments, I am talking with allot of companies for sponsorships, but if you know about a company that might be interested please send me a PM about it, and I could talk with them also. And if anyone can spare some $ at all (anything is something, and something helps a long way ;) ) that would also be great.
i'd love to help.... but unfourtunatly i neither know any companies.... and i'm currently without a job <.<... but if it helps i'll do my best to cheer everyone playing the tourneys on >.<;; maybe that'll help abit? >.<;;
Dunno if this thread is active still but will post anyway. I would like to suggest my map to be played for you. Its a coop 4 player map (can play less if you want) and I want others opinion on it. The name of the map is No Mans Land Survival by mindless (I am mindless) and its on the EU servers only (so far).
Otixa and I might have maybe a few hours this evening if our packing wents well. We'll see. There aren't a lot of maps though, but we can still play ^^
Indeed so. There's still hope.
