since krin is not unpdating colony no more, what we have is what we get. So that being said its time to put peoples skills to the test. Every old pro that has ever played the game may join new or old. If you "think" you have what it takes, even if your not pro, you may participate
Here are the Details of the tournament When- March 20th Time- 2:00pm eastern time zone (weekdays anywhere from 6pm est to 12pm midnight) *time may vary* modes- 1v1 on normal (other modes may be included)
Rules -Any build or strat is allowed *no restrictions* -No Glitching (all pros will be able to tell this equals in automatic loss) -No hacking -Limited redo's (some people have lag problems, if nessicary the game can be postponed to fix connection) if connection cannot be fixed its automatic disqualification, the tourny will not be held up no excuses -No cap limit to participation. The tourny could be as big as 20 people 100 people or 500 people, i will organize matches as we go along -No time limit. Games can last however long they need to, and the tournament itself can last all summer. The deadline is sept 10th 2011 -Games will be recorded. This will be done by either Me or YOS, so 1 of us will have to be online for matches to even count, these games will most likely be posted on youtube -No bragging, trash talk, or unsporting conduct. These will equal in a round loss

Depending on size of tournament, the last group of people will be playing different game modes
The last 2 people will play the best of 11 games
if you wish to participate please post under this thread you wish to and the name of your AG account. Thank you. Good luck guys
I really don't think there should be a restriction on "foxer" build--mainly because it really isn't all powerful, and mainly because if you define it as bank post--you've simply killed half of the game.
Are these other modes going to be compulsory, or only upon agreement with both sides? I think it should be normal by default, unless agreed otherwise. The other modes just don't involve nearly as much strategy.
i just say that bank post is overused and ive never seen any pro do anything else other than bank post in a long time its really quite sad you guys are just banking on that right now zero variety.
I have come to the conclusion that BlackandGold is probably Fastsmasher seeing as he stated that he wanted to join the tourney on the youtube comments for some videos and also because YOS said that he would help get him into it. I also think this as I have also never heard of this guy until now. I hope that it isn't him though seeing as I said I would never play him again because he has glitched against me in several 1v1s and 2v2s after promising that he wouldn't...which was a shame seeing as he used to be pro.:L
Well, whomever it may be doesn't matter as long as I win.:P Can you see if someone can be on on Friday at some point for myself and Endscape's match please?
I have some very bad news. I've just been talking to Krin and he has informed me that the colony servers will be shutting down at the end of April.
With the colony community dwindling to only a handful of people left, he has decided the benefit to the few who enjoy the game no longer justifies the cost of keeping the servers going.
I would suggest that all tournament players quickly play their matches, so at least we have one proper tournament to remember the game by.
