As for the "spitting game", the film crew were just asking questions regarding our thoughts on Starcraft, that kind of thing. Nothing special. I was just joking around with them about how it was probably for the best that I wasn't chosen to play since I would beat them and make them look bad. | ||

First some good news! Progamers will come back to Sydney! Other teams and players are set to be visiting in New Zealand, Sydney and Melbourne (reputedly) and in fact NaDa had visited Melb and NZ if I understood correctly. However we were informed that in the future more pro-teams are interested in coming out and there will be more notice on my part and organisation including booking an entire 150-computer LAN cafe, tournaments, prizes, etc. and I think I can get the lan cafe to give prizes too such as for hardware. I might drop the hint that they could have some pre-signed photos or cheerfuls for us so they don;t take up valuable time at the end. Also who knows but there may be possible interviews and we could take them gifts - we will have to wait and see if anything substantiates! We started out nervously introducing and waiting for the guys cos the bloke at the front desk seemed strangely indifferent... Looked a bit emo or someth... I just got back and am pretty tired - got called on my way to the gym last night and turned back, stayed up until 1:30AM trying to get some players to come and finally contacted Tung ( ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/Ticon_small.png) LastSCV) and Shaun (![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/Picon_small.png) Limp[KiS]) where the usual suspects for this kind of thing (fadetowhite, NrG.GoD- and Z.Kw) were all unavailable on vacation. Tung had to pull out because it was hectic at work, and Shaun turned up late because of work and poor Sydney parking. So NSW B-Team teammates and roommates Tom ( Sotanath) and ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/Zicon_small.png) Sanchez_ (sorry didn't catch your name mate but prob see you at uni some time), both around C- had to fill in. To my best recollection the games went like, NaDa vs. Sanchez_ where sanchez_ took my advice and just camped with 10 sunkens well placed on andromeda. However we got to witness Progamer micro as NaDa fluidly busted it with about 16 mnm despite drones being pulled it was nice to see and pretty exciting. On the other side a desperate counter-attack by meching Sotanath saw herO lose a lot of drones on Desti but the damage had already been done at his base and he gg'd. Next were the mirror match ups, which were painful as Sanchez_ felt herO's ling micro as he tried to get an early hatch in his main and Sotanath had the unenviable task of fighting off four cloaked wraiths in his main without an engineering bay or academy. Hopefully they remembered to get a replay or two. We originally planned to have some Team Melee and 2v2s and whatnot but we really ran out of time. It was free admission to spectate and we got a bunch of signed stuff, though again due to time (they had a shoot booked for 3:30pm so we had about 2 hours) they had to head off. I got four signed BW CDs by both players, and herO's signature on some paper. Unfortunately all of the CDs are taken by people who asked and for friends. Some of the other guys might have some spare swag but I think signing the shirt and CDs took a long time so there weren't many pages signed.

Yeah I had a feeling it wouldn't be limited once he told me that they only booked out one corner, seeing as they can't stop you from just rocking up to the net cafe but I'd never been there before (as Lhyviathan can confirm by my incessant calling for directions) so couldn't be certain.

![[image loading]](http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/5785/nadahero.png) Some pics of the signed BW CDs and their respective soon-to-be owners n_n. ![[image loading]](http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/6990/cdsnada.png) Close up of the autographs. NaDa's signature is pretty elaborate - a signature with a star at the end, his name in Korea, his ID in signature script and the date. herO's signature was just his name in hangeul and then his ID and date  ![[image loading]](http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/2231/1cdnada.png) | ||
