I find it a bit strange that the Koreans had problems sleeping in rooms with 5 others, isn't that what they all do in their practice houses in Korea? Whenever I watch videos from progaming houses I think about their living conditions, I would have a hard time sharing rooms like they do because I'm used to having alot of privacy.

Sharing rooms with 5 others is obviously not ideal but I don't see how any of that blame can go to Dreamhack, everyone has to take care of their own hotel bookings etc for DH.

If I go to Korea I don't assume that everything will magically work out with housing etc when I get there, I look up things beforehand.


You treat guests from foreign countries like that? If someone from a different country came to visit, you'd think, "Oh, he's used to living in a shack of a house, I'll just let him sleep in my bathroom!"

They're guests and should be provided as such, IMHO. Because the Korean managers are the ones who signed the Dreamhack agreement without reading it too in-depth, they could've emphasized it in bold, because it is such an important part of the event.

The difference between you going to Korea and them coming to Dreamhack is that a) you're not a progamer or anything that demands accommodation, 2) you don't have a manager or equivalent who's entire job is to make sure you don't have to do anything but play Starcraft 2.


Are you serious? The Koreans applied to participate at Dreamhack and got accepted. They were sent information about having to take care of accomodations etc, just like everyone else, but didn't(except MC) for some reason. It's unfortunate what happened but you can hardly blame it on DH. They did the best they could in that situation and it's a miracle that they managed to find accomodations at all for the Koreans 1 day before the event.

If the Koreans needed help to book Hotels or whatever then I'm sure the DH staff could have helped out, but it seems like they expected everything to be done for them.

Don't give me some B.S. about how I treat guests, surely if you've seen videos from progaming houses in Korea you know that many of them share rooms. I'm not saying the Koreans should be treated badly, I just thought they wouldn't have any big problems sharing a room since they do it at home. It was their managers or their own fault that they had to share room afterall.

wow. The Koreans were not mistreated at all. It's their own fault that they didn't read the memos sent out to their teams, and it's their fault thinking they were going to be treated like gods showing up thousands of miles from home. Kind of misleading in that topic title.

Given the information provided, I can't see how anyone could possibly blame Dreamhack for #6.

When Jinro came to stockholm after dreamhack he played the entire night at (I think it was) inferno online. Ok, partly it was waiting for the subway to start running again but still.

Great write-up!

But to be fair - the write-up regarding the crowd and especially Day9 tent is kind of misleading.

[image loading]
“Dreamhack was very nice although I was disappointed how small the tent was. It was always filled and ppl standing up” – Morrow


This picture is from the first day before all of the people had arrived. There was also problems during these first hours because of lighting which is true. And also Morrows quote to that picture seems a bit weird.

The entire rest of the tournament “took place” inside the Day9 tent, a too-small tent where fans were unable to see the players – even on the screens!


This was fixed late the first day and after that the crowd was more or less like this all of the time:

And yes, I do agree that the viewer experience could be improved a lot.

If you can't beat them, join them; and that's what Huk did. Who's winning now?
