GO TO CHAT CHANNEL NTBL FOR GAMES!

LOOK A WEBSITE

NTBL Client Version One: REQUIRES JAVA, should work on Mac & Linux & Windows



This program will monitor a folder you select and automatically upload any NTBL replays placed in that folder. With this, I'm resetting the leaderboard on the website. This leaderboard should /should/ stay up for a while and will be considered the definitive version of the NTBL rankings. The ranks you see in game don't mean anything right now. A future update will have the maps display the online ranking at the beginning of the game.



HOW TO USE:

I'm unable to upload replays.



Do i make a new folder and put the replays into it and make the replay location that folder or does it upload the replays automatically from the original replay location? (where all my other replays are kept)



Help needed.

1. Choose the folder first.

2. Leave client open (don't exit)

3. All NEWLY added replays will be counted - the client will say if the upload was successful or not.



You probably put your replays in a folder and then selected that folder name in the client - this won't work. If you have already played a few NTBL games that you want uploaded, select your folder name and transfer those replays into that folder while the client is open.

Run NTBLClient.jar

Hit find and pick where your replays are going

This should be either My Documents/Starcraft II/<name>.<code>@1/Replays/Mutliplayer OR My Documents/Starcraft II/<name>.<code>@1/Replays/Unsaved/Mutliplayer depending on whether you have SC2 automatically saving replays. I don't know what the default path is on Macs, but I imagine it's something similar.



SC2GEARS USERS: For the client to detect replays, the filename must start with [NTBL]. Keep that in mind if you have SC2gears set to rename your replays.



Let the magic happen



To easily upload all your old NTBL replays[i.e. The ones from before this update]:

Use the find to pick a folder

Move all of your NTBL replays into that folder

Let the client do it's thing.





Leave the client running while you play



Clarification on how the client works! It only uploads replays that are placed in the directory while the client is running. This is to avoid re-uploading replays every time you run the client

Now about what is actually going on here:



now with content!

Online rankings are in alpha! Try it out!

Right now, for a game to be counted online, you need to upload it with the online uploader. We haven't written in unique game enforcement yet, so you can just upload the same game over and over again if you really want. Because of this, we will be wiping the database when we write that in, probably in the next day or so. This is all for testing purposes. For science. A client to automatically upload replays is in progress.



After seeing Blizzards latest foray into the realm of map-making and their unwillingness listen to anyone, I decided I'm making my own ladder!



Version 1 of Not The Blizzard Ladder(NTBL) has been released! It's like the iCcup ladder, except Starcraft 2! Features include:

iCcup ranking system across multiple maps



No matchmaking, play with your friends! (Yes, it's a feature)



Observers!



Current Map pool is:

GSL Crossfire SE



GSL Bel'Shir Beach



MLG Xel'Naga Caverns



GSL Xel'Naga Fortress



MLG iCCup Testbug



GSL Terminus RE



GSL Crevasse



MLG Metalopolis



MLG Shakuras Plateau



MLG Tal'darim Altar



MLG Typhon Peaks



To find these maps, go to create game and type NTBL into the search bar, and join chat channel NTBL to find games.



Update: Computer players are now counted as rank E.



Update 2: Treat this as preseason. None of the implementation is finalized, I will probably move rankings to a website, and it is really easy to give yourself whatever ranking you want right now.



Planned Features:

Online Stats YES!



External Client YES!
