They did call for write-ups of the starcraft matches when Harvard plays; hopefully this is the start of more attention to esports. | ||

I hope Hazel can fill in the details. Some friends of mine have played in it, and it seems pretty organized...matches are at a regular time each week, reps are saved...not sure whether there's a playoff structure in the works, but the regular season is definitely extremely well-done in my experience. Certainly more than schools playing "randomly for fun". | ||

I know it's hard because I'm on west coast thus east coast was 3 hours later, but still, I'm out at 10:00 PM on a sat night as well... sundays are so much better imo. | ||

Sunday's are UCPL, so we could have done that. Sunday night is when everyone does homework as far as I can tell -_-;; CSL has playoffs btw, they're next week I think. | ||

Most teams do in fact paly on Sundays. And there have been various West Coast vs. East Coast matches that have not been horribly affected. We (Georgia Tech) just played Cal Tech over the weekend and there were no problems in the 3 hour difference in timezone.

And I'm guessing since you post on this forum you wouldn't go out Saturday nights as well? | ||
