Final Words
Tournament will be played after DXHR hype has died down. If the tournament gets bigger, up to the top 5 have a chance to get prize and the value of the top prizes increase.

It's called copper as the 1v1 ladder for Starcraft 2 is divided into tiers of Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Masters, Grandmasters. It's community slang that Copper is below Bronze.

but still nothing... lost my whole army against kamikaze insects or they died infront of protoss balls

The public custom games are sadly not a good way to learn. As Clix said, players with higher skill tend to use them.
Try playing vs medium, hadd and very hard AI. Personally I practice with very easy AI. :)

kamikaze insects... that has to be the most awesome alternate name for banelings!

But yeah, just play against easy/medium cpu for starters.

Regarding this sorta:

I'd like to finish the rounds between players at the same time. While having the matches themselves on different days.

Example
Day 1:
Player 1 vs Player 2 - Player 2 wins the Bo3
Player 3 vs Player 4 - Player 3 wins the Bo3

Day2:
Player 2 vs Player 3

Not necessary the day after.

Got Steam?, in a few hours ask steam://friends/joinchat/103582791430398885 for their friend codes and see if they can add you or you can add them and message them on SC2. This might be a problem.

I won't be here for a few days. Have fun.

I am so sorry to announce:
22:22 - Dex: you made people register for US Starcraft 2


DON'T WORRY, NO RE-DLING

1. Sign up to this FIXED link:
https://eu.battle.net/account/sc2/starter-edition/

2. Relocalise your client
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmes ... _id=139082


Step 1: Download Utility
http://www.girlscoutcookie.com/SC2/GSCR ... -v0.15.zip or
http://c526413.r13.cf2.rackcdn.com/GSCR ... -v0.15.zip

Step 2: Extract
Extract file into Starcraft II/Support/ of a patched up to date Starcraft 2 installation of the language you wish to use. You should now have a folder called "GSCRelocalizer-v0.15"

Step 3: Run Script
Run "relocalizer.bat".

If you only have one language installed and have not used the tool yet, choose "Relocalize a locale" (Option 1) for your mode. If you have multiple locales already installed (by running the Relocalizer or manually copying the locale files from another install) you may choose "Switch between installed locales" (Option 2) to quickly switch between them.

Your Source Language is the INSTALLED language you wish to relocalize for another region.
Example: If you want to use the English (US) client on the Latin American servers, choose "enUS"

Your Target Language is a language in the region in which you wish to play. Since not everything is relocalized yet, if your region has multiple languages listed, choose the language you prefer for non-English content.
Example: If you want to use the English (US) client on the Latin American servers, choose "ptBR" or "esMX".


EnGB for EU in English

YOU WILL HAVE TO RE-MAKE YOUR NAME SO TELL ME YOUR ALIAS/CHARACTER CODE AGAIN

Original post fixed.
