Group Stage
All participants will be placed into groups based on seeding. Seeding will be done based on previous tournament results as well as a number of other factors, such as results in NYC BW LAN #1, claimed MMR in BW:RM, ICCup, Fish, personal impressions of players' skill level, so on and so forth.
There will be up to 4 players per group. The groups and consequent tournament will follow the MSL format, which can be referenced here:
MBCGame StarCraft League (MSL)
In summary:
2-0: First seed -> Seed 1 Gosu Tour
2-1: Second seed -> Seed 2 Gosu Tour
1-2: Third Seed -> Seed 1 Chobo Tour
0-2: Fourth Seed -> Seed 2 Chobo Tour
If there are less than 4 players in your group, the format will be Round Robin and any tie-breakers and seeding will be determined on-site following a similar logic to the proposed format of NYC LAN #1's "under-32" format. Reference link.
From that point on, the Gosu and Chobo tours will run separately, following a single-elimination format.
Group stages are Bo1, the tournament proper is Bo3, with the Grand Finals of each tour being Bo5. Thus, each player has two vetoes in the main bracket, and one veto in the Grand Finals.
Maps for the group stage are as follows:
Game 1: Fighting Spirit
Game 2. Sylphid
Game 3" Circuit Breaker

+ Show Spoiler [FAQ] +
1) Do the computers have Brood War?
Yes.
2) How many computers per room, how many rooms, how much each costs, etc.?
~60 total. 40 in the general area. 15 in the high-end area. 4 in each of two private rooms.
Memberships are the recommended option for players. The way this works is, you buy a $20 membership, which gives you $23 of credit for use at the venue (they throw in $3 extra). Being a member means that you pay less per hour for computers. The prices are:
General area: $4/hour, $2/hour with membership (11 hours credit)
Watercooled area: $6/hour, $4/hour with membership (5 hours credit)
Private area: $10/hour, $6/hour with membership (3 hours credit)
The added perk of membership is that if we return to this venue in the future, you will already have it and can just add money to your account as necessary. If you are not planning on entering the tournament, or don’t anticipate staying long, you can forego this option, but it is heavily recommended for tournament participants to get a membership.
We will be negotiating a package deal with the venue once we have a complete head count, in an attempt to make the price distribution more even for everyone regardless of which computers they use in which area.
3) How much space can we imaginably reserve?
As much as we need, with high-end and private areas being reserved first (most likely).
4) Will there be a stream?
Yes.
5) Can we bring a CRT + consoles?
Not enough room/outlets for this.
6) a. Are there any lounge/chilling areas?
Yes, relatively small though. The general and high end areas are relatively open-air, and there is room to stand behind players to obs FPV.
b. Extra chairs available or in close proximity?
Only a few - need to source more chairs.
7) Is there a big screen TV we can stream to?
Yes, in the entrance area, where there is some standing room.
8) Can people bring their own peripherals?
Yes.
10) Can people bring other games on USB sticks?
Yes.
Yes.

Please fill out the PM informing me that you wish to donate to this event and I will provide you with a link.
Matcherino takes a cut and their bracket services are not useful for an in-person event of this nature. PayPal business also takes a cut. This is the best solution. In "Additional Information" you will find examples of previous events like this that I have run and participated in.
Note: You can also donate in-person if you are attending the event!
All donations are greatly appreciated!!!
*** Additional Information ***
This event is being organized by SuGo, Tim, and myself, with preemptive on-site assistance provided by Overtime.
The NYC BW LAN community has a rich history, which you can easily find by searching for "NYC" in the search bar on TL. We have a FaceBook group. I have organized and helped run tournaments in this area in the past, such as this one. There were many other events in Manhattan and Flushing in the past as well. We are hoping to reignite the passion for LAN BW in the NYC area, so we hope that you will come and play!
Here is our most recent endeavor:
TL Thread
NYC LAN 2019 1Based on the feedback we have received via post-event questionnaires, the event was successful. We hope to improve upon our extant model and deliver an even better tournament experience this time around, and in the future.
If you have any additional questions, feel free to ask in the comments.

Early sign-ups are now closed. However, you are more than welcome to sign up at any time prior to the tournament in order to give yourself a higher priority in filling any potentially empty computer spots that we have reserved.

![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/3Fd225t.png)
We are again blessed and thankful to...
A secret organization named...
"Revival of Brood War"
Which has generously donated $500!
Out of this sum, 80%, or $400 will be added to the prize pool, bringing us to a total of...
$1816.01 + buy-ins for the prize pool!
Just as before with eSports.fund, the $100 will be going towards expense coverage - and any unspent funds will be distributed to the winners. We now have more funds set aside for expenses than for the previous tournament, but as this is our second time around, we expect to spend less - and thus put more into players' hands!
We are very thankful to Revival of Brood War and all of our generous donors and sponsors!
---
A more minor announcement is that I will unfortunately no longer be attending the event. I will be handing over all of the funds, contact information, and assets that I have collected over the past half-year over the course of the next few weeks as we migrate my responsibilities to Tim and SuGo, both of whom are prepared to continue organizing this event. I want to thank all of you that have made this experience enjoyable, everyone who supported us as an organization and me personally in your messages, and everyone who, regardless of minor drama or disagreements, behaved in a way that exemplifies what our community could be. Thank you all.
This is my last announcement! Stay tuned for a new thread for the tournament, coming soon!
Cheers ♡

This brings us to a total of $1416.01 + buy-ins!
We have now officially exceeded the base funding from NYC LAN #1! I can't be more thankful and proud of our community for coming together to make this tournament as hype as possible. What we anticipated six months ago to be a small get-together has blown all of our wildest expectations time and again. We have now closed pre-sign up and have informed the venue about how many computers we will be reserving. You are still more than welcome to sign up, but you may not be guaranteed a computer space on the tournament. However, the order in which you sign up will give you a higher priority for available computer space depending on who signs up first.

Thanks in large part to the hard work, dedication, and love for Brood War of Rus_Brain, we have come to an easy and pleasant agreement of terms with eSport.fund and have secured this sponsorship for our prize pool. We are proud to add their logo to our banner. $300 of their contribution will be going towards the prize pool, while the remainder ($82.10 after surcharges) will be going to expenses. However! If, by the day of the tournament, there is a remainder from the expenses allotment, it will be going directly into the tournament's prize pool
With eSport.fund's $382.10, we have a grand total of...
$766.01 + buy-ins in the prize pool!
Let's hear it for Rus_Brain and eSport.fund!

Also: I have extended the deadline for signing up for the tournament. After talking with the manager, we have determined that we don't need to determine a final head count quite so early - as such, we will be extending the sign-up deadline for guaranteed computer spots to September 19th. I'm looking forward to seeing more new faces sign up, and of course the return of last tour's players!
