Hi everyone!
It's been a while since my last blog, where I talked about moving on from TL.
Since then, ESEX has launched a successful Dota 2 kickstarter and we've learned a lot about running a proper campaign, enough that we can finally do the SC2 one. I feel like this one is tricky given the community's experience with crowdfunding, but we're going to try anyway.
Here it is!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hotbid/esports-express-starcraft-2
Reddit thread:
http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/2msu5h/esports_express_starcraft_2_kickstarter/
If you want to help us get funded for SC2, thank you! If not, don't worry about it, hopefully you'll still be able to enjoy and read the content we put out if the project reaches its goal.
Any questions, comments, etc feel free to ask here, or contact through the ESEX contact form on the main esportsexpress.com site.

Wasn't DOTA2's done in like 6 hours? I don't think SC2 will be able to manage it quite that quickly... if at all.

I don't think we'll be able to do it in 8 hours like Dota 2's, but I'm hopefully it'll work out. Mainly because of how the SC2 community sees funding and whats happened in the past with it. We'll see I guess!

SC2 still maintains a very dedicated fanbase who proved they are willing to contribute to crowd-funded projects. Have faith, I think we can do it.

Man, if I lived in any of the places listed, I do a lunch date with Hotbid and guest.
Btw, if I don't have/trust a paypal account, is there any other way to donate? I've never donated to one of these before?

KS is by credit card, Paypal isn't actually an option.

After reading the starcraft reddit comments, I can see why you were more apprehensive than with the dota2 community.
GL with this one as well.
