in short would be nice to see if it isn't too much work/trouble ^^
(maybe even made fancier hehe - but I think Loctav is working on it anyway)
On a side note: Thank you to all competitors. I am have spent my weekend watching some really nice matches. Good luck to all advancing teams.

Above unofficial bracket is properly constructed.
You're doing a great job so far. If you get the stability-issues fixed within the upcoming week, this could possibly turn out be one of the greatest tournaments that osu has seen so far, if not the greatest.
Now to my ideas for improvement. Note that theres quite a lot coming, but you asked for it Loctav :p
The scoring system v2
The commentary
Now to my ideas for improvement. Note that theres quite a lot coming, but you asked for it Loctav :p
SPOILER
The new scoring system seems to do a great job at keeping things exciting. First of all, big thumbs up for that. Now the issues I have with it, mainly 2 of them.
1) The pace at which you lose scorepoints with decreasing accuracy, should be higher. It doesn't feel right if 98% and 96% yield almost the same score, I feel like the difference should be bigger here. Since most top-players are able to consistently get an accuracy within 95%-100%, and the difference that these 5% make in terms of score isn't all that big, it barely feels like accuracy is 30% of the score. Accuracy feels less important, because these 30% really don't show unless someone gets below 90% accuracy, which barely happens. I would like it to be a more important part.
2) It is considerably harder to hold a good accuracy with HR (yay sliders). It is widely regarded as being the substantially harder mod in comparison to hidden, but that huge difference in playability doesn't completely show in the players final score. HR is already given a little advantage over HD regarding the score multiplier, but I think HR still deserves a little buff, boosting the score you get when successfully pulling off a HR-play. I don't think that its enough yet. Picking HR seems like a huge tactical mistake under any circumstance at this point.
Other than that, good job. It feels definitely more like a tournament now, more competitive, more fair, better overall. I hand it to whoever came up with this.

Personally, while I think that the commentary started out rather weak, I found it to be very enjoyable later on. Particularly the last block on Saturday was more than I could have ever asked for (amazing job, ztrot and all the others, forgive me for not knowing all of your names already).
Especially the playful banter between the commentators has led the commentary to be very dynamic, interesting, funny and enjoyable.
If you continue in that manner, there is nothing to fear on that front. Well done.
The things that went wrong and can potentially go wrong are rather obvious, so I won't go in depth here. Instead, I have a couple ideas for the commentary, as it seems to run out of ideas some times. Having more things to talk about would obviously make their job significantly easier.
So here it is, Ideas to improve the commentary:
A) Increasing the interactivity with audience and participants
B) Information about the players.
There are at least 8 players present per game, so theres lots of information the commentators could draw out from that.
The commentators already mention many things, but there still is a lot more to say about the people that participate - or about the people that don't participate.
C) Information about the maps.
Doomsday did a good job at giving a quick analysis of the map-pool for the upcoming round. Theres lots of things to be said about maps, and lots of it already gets said, but for the sake of completeness I'll make another list here.
D) Information about the tournament.
Everything viewed on a larger scale.
Commentary is first and foremost a task that relies on smart, thorough and accurate research.
First know what you can talk about -> know where to acquire the information that you miss -> acquire and organize the information -> find the right opportunity to include it in your commentary.
Everyone can pull of commentating what happens at the very moment ("oooh he missed, no! thats gonna be it for team X if they can't turn this around, here comes the long slider!"). Don't get me wrong, at-the-present commentating IS an important part, but it leaves little room for improvement. It's mostly about having a good vocabulary and nice sounding phrases to keep things interesting (its the worst when someone uses the same words over and over again).
Theres quite a bit people can do with their voice too. As a negative example, one of the commentators goes up and down with his voice all the time (the one with the heavy accent, again I apologize for not knowing his name), which I find rather irritating.
Overall, I have been very happy with how this played out. If you could include some of the things that I mentioned, and stay consistent with the things that you already include, this can turn out to be really great.
Alright, thats all I have for now, or rather I don't want to keep writing and eat something instead. Surely theres more to be said or discussed. Have a good one!

A) Increasing the interactivity with audience and participants
- Involving the participants.
- Invite the captain from a team or any player on chat after the game has ended to discuss the game. I am unsure if they did that yet, since I didn't get to watch all the games, but they didn't do that on the ones that I watched. It would be great to get some comments on the game itself by someone who played it himself.
- Invite the captain from a team or any player on chat before the game has started, to discuss their expectations and possibly how they want to play this game. Then wish them good luck and off they go! - Involving the audience
- Answering questions from chat. Excellent idea, was already done to some degree today. Keep that up, its a great way to make things more enjoyable.
- Strawpolls! Those are easy to make, and can be the starting point for interesting discussions. What team do you root for? Who do you think will win? Etc.
- I bet there are many more things to do with the audience. This might be something worth thinking about for a longer time. - Involving some of the other staff?
- This is a very broad one, basically includes all sort of people that are related to the development of osu. Might be cool for breaks.
B) Information about the players.
There are at least 8 players present per game, so theres lots of information the commentators could draw out from that.
- Did some of the players compete in prior OWC's?
- Are they well-known mappers, maybe? If yes, what are some of their most famous maps?
- Were they in the top10 at some point?
- Is there anything notable about their top-plays? Do they have a top-performance on the map that is currently played, maybe?
- When did they join osu?
- Are they mods themselves, or BAT's or maybe even QAT's?
- What are their strong points, are they hidden or hardrock players, or nomod or DT, or allrounders? What are their weaknesses?
The commentators already mention many things, but there still is a lot more to say about the people that participate - or about the people that don't participate.
C) Information about the maps.
Doomsday did a good job at giving a quick analysis of the map-pool for the upcoming round. Theres lots of things to be said about maps, and lots of it already gets said, but for the sake of completeness I'll make another list here.
- How old are the maps? Are they ahead of their time?
- Who mapped them? Is the mapper known for other, famous maps?
- What about the song? Do we have famous maps that include songs of the same artist? What genre is the song? Is it well known?
- How popular is the map?
- Who holds the top-score on the map? Anything notable about it? Any other famous plays on that map?
- With what mod-combinations is the map popular?
- If it is part of a map-set, is there something to say about the other difficulties?
- Is the map technical, does it have scary jumps or particularly hard parts that many people choke on?
D) Information about the tournament.
Everything viewed on a larger scale.
- If team A wins now, who will the most likely face next? What are their chances next round?
- Who is the underdog in this match, who is expected to win? Or is it even, maybe?
- Take a look at past tournaments. How far did the teams get back then? Did they even participate? Is this currently their "best" tournament?
- What is the role of a team in the whole tournament. Are they popular or unknown? Serious title-contender? Underdog? How was their role in past tournaments?
- Everything about the tournaments organization, schedule, prize-money, the "I support team"-tags that I don't think were advertised at all, so far, the people that are involved with it..
- How does loser-bracket work? (many people don't know how it works. Many many people.)

I like seeing a lot of these two particularly but it's also extremely time consuming to dig through all the participants and all the maps and assemble a proper set of notes on them for use in commentating. To aid in this perhaps next year we could have a place where community members could contribute information on specific players (perhaps like a thread per team) and a place for discussion of each map (or pool). That way commentators would be able to probe the thoughts and experiences of the community without having to actually ask around. For each lesser known player there are probably people who they are friends with that could provide a lot of information.Railey2 wrote:

I said something about this on one of the group info videos - it's hard to be hyped up about matches involving players you don't know or a map pool you are unfamiliar with. It might just be me, but I care more about the individuals playing than the specific country/team they are playing for.
Agreed. As I said, commentating is a research-heavy task, and as such it is definitely time consuming. So it would be best to split up the wordload, at best between people that already have lots of knowledge. Crowdsourcing is an interesting idea, but I wonder how that would look like in practice.chainpullz wrote:

Really? I checked last year's bracket and it wasn't like #1 of Group A,B,C,D will be in the same area though.Loctav wrote:

Like this one:http://puu.sh/lePoX/5ff6f818ed.jpg It's A1/H2 , F1/C2 , E1/D2 , B1/G2 in the same half.
Or you mean this kind of drawing is changed this year?
Most things have already said by the quality posts above; beginning was rather dull, ending was pretty good.
Question: Can ppy change the chat/score thing so that the client automatically changes from chat -> score as the match starts and from score -> chat as soon as the result screens fade out? Forgetting to change that can happen, but it's somewhat annoying to not know who's winning 50% into the map.

Thank you Railey for typing it out in such a detailed manner. I am sure if the commentators take these points seriously, it will improve the commentating a lot.Railey2 wrote:
Long text
And even if finding out things about players and maps can be reasearch-heavy, thats exactly what a colour caster should be doing; And with people like Doomsday, who already know many maps naturally, it shouldnt be too difficult. It is rather the question of allowing it or not - But then again, a healthy balance should be found, and as Loctav (or was it Loctav?) stated it, the commentating should be newbie friendly for the most part. But then again, there sometimes is a sudden moment of silence for a minute where teams are deciding which map to pick, where discussion like that would be very welcome in my opinion.
Regarding the interactivity with the participants and audience, well - it was difficult for the majority of the matches due to a very crammed schedule in which one game followed the next one. But now with the knockout-stages, i would indeed welcome pre or postgame interviews a lot. Same goes for interacting with the audience naturally, now that there is time between two matches.
But that should not sound critical at all. As many people have already stated, the commentating has improved greatly over the course of the tournament! I am looking forward to the upcoming matches
Good luck everyone that is participating for the upcoming rounds!

If you would have told me that USA vs. Taiwan would have been a first round matchup in the knockout stage two months ago, I would have slapped you for stupidity. Crazy how things change. Scorev2 has really impacted some teams this tournament.
Not like Taiwan would beat Austria with Score v1... They lost the maps against 3/4 FCs, mangekyou would probably be close (as it was now) but other than that Austria would still win, they are just top tier team in disguise.Xayne wrote:

Forz's rank decay strategy seems to have fooled the community into thinking Austria isn't a top tier team kek.
Rank doesn't mean a whole lot in a tournament/multiplayer setting in the first place lol... Other than seedings maybe.
edit: for now
edit: for now
rank means a lot more in the higher stages of the tournament, because the maps are harder
in the early stages, lower ranks are more than capable of fcing the maps with good accuracy. I'd say the rank gap in the finals will be quite clear

It depends a lot on the map pool. Players like Hvick/WWW/Rafis/Axarious/Elysion/etc are capable of playing much much more difficult maps than most of the lower ranking players. It's feasible to pick a map pool such that only these players are even capable of passing the map. I expect lower ranked players to get weeded out as the map pool gets progressively more difficult but also expect extremely under-ranked players like omgforz to stay strong.kuur0 wrote:

You saying "Scorev2 has really impacted some teams this tournament." implied that Taiwan (or USA) would have different standing if OWC used Score v1, I just replied to it saying that Austria would still win with Score v1, if I was wrong in my understanding then I don't understand why you'd say anything about Score v2 in the first place.Xayne wrote:

#Neverforget
Azer vs Hvick United

Canada wins, Never forget Taiwan

I think you should update the "home" and the scheme of the OWC after each match. It would be better 
I don't think so, people(I) may want to watch the matches on the VoD without spoiling themselves by looking at the wiki.blaze-x wrote:

That's also why I'd like people in this thread to put results into spoilerboxes cause I checked this thread to see if Loctav already updated the wiki(like he announced last time) and if I could open it up without danger and LOOK AT THAT SPOILERS.

Looking at the Bracket image and there is already 1 mistake it should be loser of bracket L is not Austria but South Korea. Please fix this

Semi-finals tiebreaker isnt as awesome as united Loctav, just a heads up that the bracket displays South Korea in the loser's bracket in Austria's place.

Probably a silly question, but how do I put the "I support team X" banner on my profile? Is it only for people participating in the event?
