So mad about missing the winner bracket matches. I'll have to check them out later.

I think I'm not the only ignorant around osu who wants this question to be answer, of how are the rules for the tournament?
I mean, are the competitors allowed to use skins? Use their own talbets or mouse, and keyboard, only tablet or only mouse? :?:
Are all the computers with the same resolution and specifications, are there some default mouse, keyboard for all computers and what type are them? :shock:
Are the competitors allowed to use their own computers or laptops? :shock:
Are there some changes done with the visual settings that are unchangable ( like no video, no skin, ignore beatmaps skin/sound, no image, etc..)? :?:

Players can play with whatever mouse, tablet, computer, skin, settings, clothes and haircut that they want. ;)

You can see the rules and use your common sense to answer these questions.

For example:
Are the competitors allowed to use their own computers or laptops?
Do you think they play in like football world cup in Brazil, where they are invited to one country and the staff providing them laptop? Hell no.

Well I think your question was kinda stupid though. Just think about it yourself. Could you play to your max. performance if you don't use your own skin/pc/mouse/tablet/keyboard? You know all OWC players are playing their matches at home so why would they switch to different devices?

during esports at LAN events, players use different chairs desks and computers from what they're used to, only their peripherals are brought with them, if OWC ever gets that big that will probably happen too

I know and you are right, but you just cannot simply compare Osu!with other games like LoL, Dota2, SC etc. In Osu! you are just way too dependent on your own setup unless in other games. It just will not work

1v1 4:5 since Germany LOVES tiebreakers

no it was my fault, KRZY. I was being a bit dickish (before I edited post 10 times due to massive boredom) but tbh I dont want to hear 'not being a dick' from loctav, but he did initially say it with some reason

is there any way to up the stream quality?

I noticed the Group Stage VODs have been deleted, if the Twitch channel has not checked the option to save VODs permanently then I would do so.
xxdeathx
yeah i wanted to watch the VODs today but couldn't find a link anywhere on the twitch channel or the wiki >.<
AmaiHachimitsu
Good job streamers ^^


There is also one thing I noticed in the last OWC, preserving the matches' MP links. Last year's ones have been deleted long time ago and I don't want this to happen again. This one probably will need Peppy's assisstance T.T

All past broadcasts are locally stored and may be provided as soon as we found a viable solution for that.

Someone by the name of xasuma has all the broadcast Group Stages on YouTube.

Twitch no longer saves VoD's permanently. If you want to save it permanently, you have to make a highlight out of it. I think they keep past broadcasts for a max of two weeks now.
pooptartsonas
Oh wow, they just keep getting stricter about that. Never mind then, having them uploaded somewhere else is probably better anyway.

Dunno what you technicals guys did, but Twitch stream is getting worse.

Welp, it's more about Bancho. Every game players are disconnecting.

This is the semi final. Check the colours. Even the mappool is named "semi finals"

That's more likely to be DoS attacks. If it was Bancho, every player would disconnect.

The streamer forgot to check the title. Quarter-finals 2.0

So players are getting picked on? How?
gr0t
I really hope tomorrow matches will go smoothly.

Yauxo, I got tricked by starting screen. Then i checked colours ;) Thanks for quick response, though.

PS. I believe somone said, that players can easily be tracked and DDoS'd by their skype names.

The stream/tournament is disgusting overall. You can't tell whose the best of the best overall, which is what this tournament is about in the first place.

Gotta say huge props to Color for trying to commentate all this shit.

I would feel kinda awkward, when every screen appears black and it's silent for like 20 seconds. Like 4k people are watching nothing, while waiting that the game appears again lol.
Xayne
I haven't watched much today, but I will have to give credit to Peppy where it's due. As vocal as I have been about the negative side of things, I will say I did notice a significant decrease in the amount of fake combo breaks last week. There were a few, but not nearly as much as before. Kudos.
