Whether you like Game or not, he's the one of the most well-connected and knowledgeable organizers you could ask for and he'll be a valuable resource in our efforts.

We should really be putting aside our differences for now for the sake of the scene we know and love.

If you end up having an event, you should require Koreans to stream
X amount of hours on twitch In order to qualify.

I think the most feasible thing we can have going in the near future is a fairly large amount of small tournaments, with some regular (like the defiler cup) and some kind of whenever (like my own brand :3), mixed in with the occassional ISL-sized tournament. And then from there we can kind of grow. It's just a matter of keeping realistic expectations. An OSL sized event in a few weeks ain't happening. But we could grow to the point of having 4-5 ISL-sized tournaments in 2013, and at least $200 in prize money a month besides them in small tournaments. That's a realistic goal.

What we need are

A. A directioned passion to help the foreign scene grow.
B. And end to the moping, and a positive outlook to growth. Yes, the foreign scene is small right now, but that just means it's easy to double it!
C. SPONSORS. ISL has big sponsors like Twitch and Altitude. Make a point to let them know you're happy they're doing it, because it makes them more likely to do it again. But even small sponsors are helpful, because it helps stabalize the scene. I think someone trusted should start fundraising for small weekly or bi-weekly tournaments. We can't support people playing BW full-time right now, but $100 in prize money is about $10hr for 10 hours of practice/playing. You could be playing BW part time in the not-to-distant future as a source of income.

Agreed. And I really don't have a problem with Game. I just like to argue with him.

Couldn't agree more with this sort of format. Its realistic and something we could get going within even 1-2 months from now. Any chances we can get more sponsorship is just more icing on the cake.

Just reading this got me all excited and wanting to practice to A rank. I really hope to see the top 100 or so being able to make a little income off their hard work in the near future.

I figure this is as good place as any to post this. I started up BW today to play some games after not playing any BW for over a year. So I log on to iccup to play some games, Find a good game pretty quick but something is quite off. The game feels really sluggish to play like there is some huge delay on everything. In my memory the best part about BW was that everything responded so quick. Is it the Iccup server going to shit or are my memory failing me?

lag can always occur, try a game in single player or LAN against a computer and see if it's still laggy. Other things to note, skype and youtube cause my game to lag my game quite a bit. Maybe closing those will fix it?

Ok, it seams like every game on iccup must lag like shit... played some single player and it was just as smooth and amazing as I remember. I have really good internet and pretty much only have mumble going in the background stealing my internet so the lag is probably not coming from my end but is there anything I can do to improve the situation?

Well, I can talk to few Korean clans since I am member of 3.33 clan in west.
3.33 do not care anything about KeSPA transitioning into SC2 because majority population of South Korea still play BW.
Because they play for fun rofl.
But I dont know about other clan, and I will try to see how they are planning to do so.
I do believe that when KeSPA completely changes to SC2, clans from BW will also transition to SC2 because those famous clans love to take care of some amateur players who want to become progamers.

Also, I would love to cast in both language, Korean and English.
If there are tournaments with some prize, it could be easier to bring players from Afreeca, like Anytime, Sky, mong[name], etc. Casting in live could be very difficult unless caster or streamer live in Korea where it does not cause any lag. So tournaments in summer and winter should be great because a lot of people go back to Korea at those times for their vacation, like me. SUMMER KOREA GOGOGOGOOGOG
i hope these pathetic opinions can somewhat contribute to save BW.

If the game lags you should change the Network settings (F10) to high or extremely high. That's usually enough to make the game smooth. I only have to do this like every 10th game though, so I'm not sure why you're having these issues.
