In China the entire BW scene is run by people doing shit just because it's something they like, financial situations and personal employment be damned.
The whole BW scene was started by those who thought Video Games could become sports, not by those who sought profit.

Im sure if the organization was great we wouldn't really need financials for gaming/casting. Even a few years back there were iccup tournament casts which would reach quite a few viewers.

A lot of people are kinda pissed that you failed them. I understand that it was a lot of work and if you pull this of it's a pay off, but you REALLY need to hold a qualifier to a wide range of people just about any B- To A+ that want's to participate should be given a chance.

What do you mean, you didn't organize the tour yet? I thought you would have done it while we were going for Canadian National walks.

To the organizers of this tournament:
I have been following the threads about the Euro LAN for quite some time, and I must say, I am dismayed at the turn of events. I have taken it upon myself to help you out with funding by selling lemonade at a very successful lemonade stand. I got my parents to front the money to purchase the wooden stand, the lemons, the sugar, the water, and the pitcher to hold the delicious lemonade, as well as cups. Through this enterprise, I have raised a substantial sum of money, and I would like to negotiate a business proposition with the organizers of this tournament. Send me a PM if interested, let's make BroodWar happen!
