Well we had an awesome time today at UofT BA building, tons of people showed up. The premise of our event was pretty simple: Play StarCraft in the middle of campus.
And thats what we did, as lots of people walked by, they all ooh'd and ahh'd at the intense gaming of our members and players. Everyone seemed to really enjoy meeting other starcraft players on campus, and watching, obsing games was really fun. Everyone had like 5 people behind them, watching in awe as players hacked away with there APM skills.
I Hope everyone had a fun time! I sure did, next time we'll make it even better! maybe advertise first lol.
Anyways I'll post the replays of our event in a bit like i promised. Feel free to post here if you came, and we can further meet up for my starcraft, as well as update you for future events.
Everyone close by to UofT is invited to join in, I'm sure everyone wants to meet SCers in real life! (I am personally at UTM too so if you're in sauga feel free to join in)
Sorry if you missed it, it was pretty much a random event I came up with, to find casual SCers in the middle of school!

oh, so you folks are still around? *haven't played since getting banned from NSci labs years back* So how did you people set up this time?
This is coming from someone who has finished school.
|
We got a permit to play in the middle of the hallway. So we got some tables from another room (later was scolded to return), and then we found more tables and added more laptops. I brought a router, we played on LAN UDP
Posted some replays
|
I was there today, it was really fun
|
Cool dude. Everyone should stay in contact
|
fOr)Darko aka cutesmallHydra showed up to this? how interesting, did he play well?
|
oh crap i mistyped the url, fixing replay, theres more replays later
|
I was not informed of this event. -_-
I've been hunting down events like this but never came across any. I have my physics tutorial in that building too. I'm so disappointed =[. Maybe next time I guess. Will there be posters?
|
york's on strike...i have plenty of time to own uoft students now
|
I was there too. Was nice to meet everyone. 
|
I'll try. It was a really a great event to socialize with sc players. You still can.
Anyways, we plan on hosting a iccup event soon with great prizes.
honest i want to host another one of these.
|

Haha, that's pretty cool. If this would've happened at Duke we'd probably get chased off the quad with beer cans thrown at us
|
some old fart was pissing me and my friend off. I was trying to explain sc is like chess, he keeps going, "but you're killing"
some other people were ignorant, one guy was banging his hands on the table imitating my apm.
and that lady who made us put away the desks while we were playing. Some people saying "sc sucks", but honestly the majority were "OMGGGG SC!!" and the girls were "wow hes fast" lol
|
Beautifully organized event guys; it was great fun. I hope you can manage to cook up another LAN like this sometime soon again.
It's unfortunate we had to deal with the "old people" like the old guy that couldn't comprehend that we weren't "shooting each other" or the lady that had us replacing the desks mid-games. =x
Looking forward to more reps, keep 'em coming! Some nice games were played.

I went 3-1 overall. I had the privilege of playing the last game of the LAN, unfortunately that was the one that I lost. :p
It was pretty cool how everyone had their eye on the game; the ZvT went back and forth for almost half an hour.

Easily done, but it'll have to wait sadly. I leave for vacation in the Caribbean in the morning and I won't be back 'till the 23rd. ;(
In a way, the LAN was a nice send-off party. lol =o
|

|

this was closer to the end, I forgot to take pictures when the most number of people were there, other people were on the benches and such waiting for their turn. Oh well next time.
|
cool stuff, next time get more pics
|
Why didn't you guys post an invite on here so that more people could know about it?
|
Man if you could get something like this going @ UTM, damn that'd be awesome!
|
|
|

sorry for off topic
|
UTM's fun, i mean its cozy. You get to know all your profs, and get close to them. Bekele, come play with me sometime, I'm usually in spigel.

That's pretty cool that you have so many people interested.

Wow, that's awesome. I've been thinking seriously of trying to make something like this happen with Simon Fraser University. We have a games club already, so this shouldn't be a huge stretch.
Given the way you organized it, it would probably be easy for us. We have campus-wide wireless, and if it was desperately laggy(>35ms), routers and Cat5 cables can probably be rented from the library. Not to mention that playing games on laptops or on consoles in the main public areas is not at all unusual. Every big event like clubs day has a setup for SSBB. Getting SC randomly in the public area would be easy. Thanks for the inspiration.
NB for anyone who is actually in the Vancouver area or goes to SFU and seriously would like to participate or watch, I am referring to the Surrey Campus.

|
|
|
^ btw that's going to be at UTM
not utsg. but anyone can come
|
i wish i knew about this i would have loved to come. maybe make a post on tl before you host the next one?
|
lol at the people in awe of the speed. I got the same reaction when the people atmy flat saw me playing sc for the first time :p
great event and pleased it went well
|
I can come to the utm, but it depends which day and time. I'm guessing you are holding it at spigel hall?
|
Wow, now I'm jealous. That sounds really nice. I'd gladly come if I weren't thousands of kilometers away.

yes, most likely.
FOR THOSE WHO ARE INTERESTED:
send us your schedule, and we will find a date which would be convenient for all.
either email me at soc_k@live.com, or add slained on your msn, and tell him. or do both. lol
remember, the more people we get a reply from, the more chances this isn't going to flop.
