If you have any questions about the btanks tournament and its rules, please post under this thread.
We will answer your questions and collect frequently asked questions to make a list.
Frequently asked Questions:
- Q: Is it allowed to use GProxy++ in the Btanks Tournament?
- A: It takes time for the bot owner to reconfigure the bot for gproxy supporting, but it is possible we won't have enough time to work on it before the tournament starts. So please consider for now the tournament bot will NOT support GProxy++, unless we give a further notice on it.
- Q: Flame is not allowed? How to define what is flame?
- A: "Flame" means speaking something bad to your opponents, which is strictly forbidden in the BTT. See 13. The referees observing in the game have the rights to decide what is flame and what is not. It is totally up to the referees. If you are watching world cup 2010 you may notice sometimes the referees can make mistakes ... So it is wise to talk as less as possible to the other team, to avoid the possibility to be judged as flamer.
- Q: I just registerd on behalf the of BTC clan situated in the Bored Aussie Server (http://www.boredaussie.com/). Anyway to hold some of our matches their instead of Bnet Server?
- A: To avoid the violation of the term of use of blizzard, we have decided all the BTT 2010 games must be hosted on the 4 official BN servers. The BTT players must have a valid cd-key, so they can login into 1 of the 4 servers. By default, the BTT games will be hosted by the Btank league beta bot, but it is possible to play the BTT games on a different bot or host, provided if (1) both teams agree to play on that host instead of league bot, (2) all players and BTT referees can join the game from 1 of the 4 official Blizzard server.
-Q: does this mean, makros are not allowed?
- A: Some people prefer to use software tools or build-in keyboard features to quickly type a string in the Btanks games. In BTT 2010, it is ONLY allowed to do this, when the strings are bt commands like "-zoom xxxx", "-rc" etc.
