10 hours later (on Mon, 30 Aug 2010 06:33:36)What version of the map will be played? There are multiple, and the best ones aren't on top, and so on.
Xel'naga Relics beta published to Europe.
3+ players suggested, but you can play versus AI if you want. -

Tournaments will be global when Blizzard gets their systems together and makes Battle.net region free, something they are working on.

@OiledTinman:
Erm, I do not believe that is the original Nexus Wars. That version is bugged and old. The original(Which was on the US) was created and maintained by "lilman". Lipshcitz Is the fake.
Having played the updated one during beta(on the US). I can say that the one on EU is not fun to play at all, due to a lot of balance changes and updates that were needed.

Hi everyone, this is Isospeedrix and I will be (hopefully) creating a community for Nexus Wars and handling suggestions and changelogs. As most of you know, Nexus Wars was created by Lilman, and is one of the most popular maps in SC2 beta. I work with Lilman personally and he has decided to minimize dealing with forums and public affairs in favor of focusing on map design. Lets hope Nexus Wars will continue to thrive in SC2 retail!
Probably someone will have to talk to Isospeedrix...
Edit:
Also says:
I have received requests/complaints that Nexus Wars cannot be ported onto EU/SEA servers. Because the way battle.net is set up, each game is locked to its own region. Unfortunately we have no solution to this yet, so for now Nexus Wars can only be played on US servers. Please let me know here if you have a solution to this.

50 minutes later (on Mon, 30 Aug 2010 12:16:25)There is a Nexus Wars on the EU server at 1.17 that we could use instead hosted by Doccrazy.
Would be nice though is anyone from the US could get in contact with isospeedrix for me, as you need a US character to post on the US forums (sigh)
The name of the map is Nexus Wars US and if we decide to move to that or get a newer one the standard settings will be No Fog and 15 sec income.Thank to you all for brining this to my attention, I tried the other version of the map and it was way better then the old one, to bad no one plays that one.
Again it would be nice if we could get the current one up on the EU servers and play that. -

Am I the only one who first read that as $250,000 due to the comma/period regional difference?
I'd play if I were willing to get an EU account. -

2 hours later (on Tue, 31 Aug 2010 07:46:55)Only the leader have to register to register, but if the members do not register they will be unable to receive the curse premium prize.
@YiffMaster: Go
You are obviously reading wrong, if its a comma (,) the behind is cents as in $100,50 is one hundred dollars and fifty cent. If its a period (.) its there to divide the number for easy reading every third number like 100.000.000,00
And you have also added a extra zero to your number :p The prize is two hundred and fifty dollars, $250,00 ^^
