To sign up as a human player, you register on

Max Rank:



Race-picking and random are not allowed.





Signing up a bot:



You sign up a bot by either mentioning to me that you want to play in this tournament (via PM or just posting here). In that case I will get the latest version of your bot from the SSCAI server and run the bot for you.



Or you can sign up a bot the same way as a human player does, but in your teamliquid post you also mention that you are registering a bot.



Tournament information:



The bracket system is the double elimination format.

The tournament will take place on Saturday 11 June 12:00 CEST, but there will be an opportunity to play the first round on Friday 10 June (see below).



The registration will close Thursday 9 June 12:30 CEST. On 13:00 CEST the brackets will be generated. If you want, you can contact your opponent in order to already play your round 1 game on Friday.



If you have to play the round 1 game, you have until 13:00 CEST to log in ICCUP. If you already played your round 1 match you have until 14:00 CEST.

Other replays might be casted by Nepeta, but this is TBD.



Other information:

- Everyone is allowed to use the observer version of a map, but I would advise bot operators to only play FFA or melee, because some UMS map triggers can crash a bot.

- Bot developers are allowed to let someone other than their-self or me operate their bot. Bot developers are eligible for prize money even if they are not operating their own bot.

- BWAPI bots should have the "complete map information" flag set to disabled (by default it is). They are allowed to put the "user input" flag to true for chat purposes, unless their opponent doesn't want the "user input" flag set to true (only applicable when the bot operator can edit the bot itself).

- Bot operator should not use Anti-hack as it conflicts with the BWAPI. When human players are playing against a bot, they can turn AH off and use

- Human players should have AH on when playing against other human players, unless this causes problems with the game not starting ( Wiki: StarApple D/D+/C- man vs machine tournament Defiler.ru page: http://defiler.ru/tourney/?t=459 Organizer(s): Martin Rooijackers (LetaBot)Caster(s): BisuDagger (live commentary) (+ AmazingXKCD TBD)(extra VOD cast by Nepeta TBD)Hello everyone, StarApple expressed interest in sponsoring a man vs machine tournament.
