In 2004, it was worse. They had every game (need for speed, counterstrike, starcraft, unreal tournament, etc...) at the same location, to share what? 20 PC's? They were maybe 50 people crammed into a small room with hardly any room to breathe. The organizers promised raffle prizes, i won a shuttle PC, never was it given. In 2005, it was at the same location, however this time, it was ONLY starcraft, phew. That event went quite well, even though they had horribly tellings of the time of the event. I went based on other people's posts on TeamLiquid T_T After I qualified for regionals for the next month, it was better, no organizer was there though, it was run through the LAN, but the players made the event. The organizers sucked, but the players were cool to hang out with. 2006 online = sucks = abuse = shitty finals/organization 2007 has been a joke the whole time. only 2 hour online ladder a day? WTF? How is that to show skill? I was still in school, so staying up till 3:00 am to play in a ladder when I had my final exams = shit. The organizers seem like they have no idea wtf they're doing anyhow. 2008 bring back LAN qualifications, and bring back GOOD organizers. 2003 WCG was by far my best experience. | ||

Which would be New York. It's not North, because I'm leaving for that in about an hour, and I'm sure not going to New York. And I'm pretty sure it's not Pacific or South. | ||

Or Laserflip, who won a spot in WCG North by finishing first, losing his spot after the 2nd place player in his qualifier learned he was no longer qualified and disputed the match... to which the admin forced a replay despite replay / screen shot evidence to the contrary. And of course, they give out no information at all. They just suck beyond belief this year. | ||

I would LOVE for BLIZZARD to hire me seeings how I know many of the people that play WCG and have an understanding of what they are looking for. I have the time and Devotion to put into it as well. I would help bring this game back to the eyes of the LAN owners as not a crappy game but rather a game that puts CS and HALO to shame. Not sure if many of you heard but the Regionals in Irvine were horrible the LAN owner was a prick! People wanted to warm up and practice and the LAN owner I don't know his name I'm sorry but basically told them they couldn't, But when CS guys wanted to use the computers it was np. One last thing about that lan. G5 whom we all know called them just the other day after accidently leaving his mouse behind at the lan. First thing the LAN said when they picked up the phone after being asked if his mouse was in LOST and FOUND was Nope no mouses here" I would think at least make an effort to look at the stations for a mouse. I'd be more then happy to run the WCG USA for Blizzard just need support from everyone. If you want help out send Blizzard an email or REPOST on here that You would like to see me get involved with OFFLINE events and ORGANIZE online events as well. TL.Net I'm sure would help on this one as well. Manifesto is a good guy just need alot of posts to get attention. Thanks guys! May WCG USA and Next year be a good one with or without me! | ||

Rekrul won the 1st ladder season, Artosis won the 3rd ladder season. After these three ladder events, we started the AmeriCup events, which Assem won the first season, and Mondragon won the second season. There was also the EuroCup XIII which I got for the Europeans, which Mondragon won. As for the pacific lan center, I had no problems. <hr> 3 ladders, 2 AmeriCups, 1 EuroCup = thousands of $dollars$ Obviously I'm the best coordinator when it comes to getting money for you scrubs and running tournaments. No need to thank me nor like me, just respect me. Stay tuned for the next big tournament ran by me, news will be posted within this coming week. | ||

I am proud as fuck to say that I am part of LighT and that we got where we are by working hard ourselves. It took a long time, but we have the same member core has 3-4 years ago, and now we're doing pretty damn well. I didn't try and bring in gosus or mercs to help us do well, we did it all ourselves, and that's a pretty damn nice accomplishment if you ask me. I'm part of a successfully run team LighT, and I brought USA B back from the shit-hole it used to be in to be considered as one of, if not the best B team. I am one of the most active admins at WGT and GG.net, and I've been nothing but fair, mannered, and reasonable with almost everyone I've dealt with in this game (except the one time I bm'd Nony because he really pissed me off). I've tried to run events and tournaments for the USA community, and in general for people. so seriously, talking about someone else's accomplishments, I, and my team have done more than you ever will, so why don't you stfu. | ||

I just commented like "wtf has he really done except get to WCG USA a few times and not make it very far" You may think I was unfair with you ... but you joined as a 2v2 player with Vanilla. If I have my whole team asking me why I let a know hacker/cheater, or whatever it is that he actually did, onto the team, the only responsible decision for me to make is to kick him. And, if I remove him, you should also have been removed... because you joined as his ally, so if one goes, both go. | ||

The qualifier will happen this Sunday at 12pm EST on ICCup in the #wcg.events channel. The players listed below will be competing in a double elimination bracket where the top 3 will advance to the WCG USA finals in Orlando: SloG4 (Andrew An) Nyoken (Dan Edison) Assem (Brian Fransioli) JianG (Justin Down) - I don't think he's attending. IdrA (Greg Fields) Failsafe (Jeff Haynes) Artosis (Dan Stemkoski) lastgosu was not listed as a qualifier for some strange reason. I am going to do my best to look into this. | ||

Starcraft and Warcraft 3 for the US are run by WCG Korea, not by WCG USA. Dont ask me why, but thats how HQ wants it. They control everything about the online qualifiers. So whenever they decide to send WCG USA the list of qualified players is when you guys get your emails with the regional information. Now I will admit that this year, some things were worse than they have been, but believe me, we are working on fixing these problems. I have met alot of you guys and we are not trying to screw anyone. We are doing our best to work with what we have. | ||
