From the promotional pdf, quoted above as well:
Weekly 26 minute programme, starting 6th May 2011 This weekly gaming magazine show will feature all the best action, news and gaming content from Major League Gaming. The MLG show will highlight the very latest from the world of competitive gaming, profiling the world’s leading gamers and gaming teams from every territory. Rumours from inside the gaming world will also be featured in the show alongside developments from leading games publishers and hardware companies. All the best plays and competitions from the past week from GameBattles will feature alongside tips and tricks from the world’s best gamers.
I'm extremely excited about this. They don't need to show games on TV, but the fact that a weekly 26 minute program is being featured will draw a lot of people into the scene who wouldn't have otherwise been exposed to it. This is great news. No mention of network yet though.

I'm sorry to all the other venues but Anahiem is going to EXPLODE! I really hope so - Anaheim was on the circuit a couple years ago and it was horribly attended (relative to the other stops, especially Columbus which apparently had gajillions of people). Hopefully SC2 will help turn things around there. MLG has said a number of times that they'd love to have more west coast stops if their attendance justified it.
As for Providence, it's possibly there to fill the void left by Meadowlands, which used to be a regular stop for MLG that they've long since outgrown. On a semi-related note, at a panel discussion last year, Sundance said that some cities were bidding to be pro circuit stops and I wonder if Providence might be one such city. No evidence to back that up other than it's a new stop for MLG (no prior event attendance history to go by) and they managed to snag the championships.
Anyway, it's going to be an awesome season :D

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Coming back to Raleigh. Where Sc2 first started in MLG!! Cant wait to see the differnce from the first one to this one.
|
I'll see you all in Anaheim
|
nice, Anaheim, however, I'm in northern california
|
ORLANDOOOOOOO
I WILL BE THERE!
|
ANNYHEIM!!
I may or may not go, but it would be awesome if I could.
|
If I get into my first-choice college, I'll be in Providence for the finals!!!
|
Nothing in DC? D: Guess I'll have to make a trip elsewhere some time.
|
aww i was really hoping for an MLG UK
|
Anaheimmmmmmmm but it sucks though because I think that's during the same time frame as EVO
|
So glad they are coming back to Raleigh :D ps: Im not sure why people pronounce it like "Rally" its more like "Rawlee" (or sort of like Molly with an R)
|
def going to at least Raleigh and championship.
(and already going to dallas)
|
No DC?  I am deeply sad.
|
Anaheim is gonna be sick.
|
Hmm, Sundance said last year that they wouldn't have any West Coast events this year. I bet the NASL being hosted in LA was a factor in this decision, they might figure all the SC2 people will be around there.
