Yup I'm at UWaterloo for the summer  .
Hey guys, would you be interested in a StarCraft LAN tourney? UWGamers tried organizing a sort of laptop-LAN last term (early december) for PC game tournaments, but only 8 people signed up for SC and WC3, then more than half cancelled on the last day so the LAN never went ahead. Instead we played a bunch of video games in the SLC (Super Smash Bros, Gamecube Mario Tennis, Zelda 4 Swords Adventure, Warioware, and others) so it was all good .
I understand the UWKSA (Korean Students Association) held a StarCraft tournament last term as well, but I only found out about it after the fact (I think Jin PM'd me about it?).
Anyway if you're interested, you can post about it on the UWGamers forum to show there's interest in one.
You know, it would be cool to do something around campus, or have a tournament online . We could in theory have a tournament on the LAN'd computers in the SLC arcade (campus cove), but I suspect the mice and keyboards will leave much to be desired  . Maybe we can ask the staff if we can bring our own mice and keyboards.

Yeah, the Cove has really crummy keyboards and mice--I can't play at all there. I also don't have a laptop so I can't really play SC from anywhere except home. But yeah, I'd be up for having some kind of powow just to meet the SC community from around UW.

yes the cove mouse sucks -.-! Half of their comp don't even have SC on it. Tourney would be awesome =) This is actually working out xD!!!
btw by noob i meant ppl that just "know" starcraft but last time played is money map 2 years ago and think he's best in the world
We can't let StarCraft be in the shadow in UW while other crappier game gets all the spot light =O!!!!

There are a lot of SC players @ Waterloo, although no one particularily good (above B+). UWKSA, surprisingly, doesn't have too much players. I go to Waterloo. I'm in 2B Systems Design Eng, but currently on a workterm at Research in Motion (just across the street so I still live here ). And I have achieved above B+ on PGT, I'm Bandit[LighT]
Ah lol
I'm getting too old, didn't realize there were so many 1st/2nd yr sc players

The prob is we need to get the information to all ppl who are interested -.-. the cov tourney last semi was so hidden i only found out the day before from korean friend.

Yeh I usually get off work around 5:00 so I could head right over to wherever afterwards.
EDIT: Just saw Bill's edit... 3:00 doesn't work for me, that's too early my boss might get mad

Weekdays actually work best for me.
