The only downside was hearing people stole keyboards, and spectators leaving trash all over the place and not bringing back chairs. I even saw someone had tagged on the back of one of the chairs. Greenforest did an amazing job with the tournament and spent a lot of time and money setting up the show. The least you can do is show a little respect and clean up after yourselves, or am I expecting too much from gamers?
I am going go try to get an estimate for damages and create a donation drive to help greenforest out.
I've hosted semi huge LANs several times. People will not clean up after themself, some stuff will be broken, and keyboards \ mouses will be stolen. What we did ? Basically had a disclaimer for signing up that we where not responsible for computer equipment. And cleaning up we just had to do after the LAN. Vandalism sadly happens, and we had to pay the venue from the money we earned.
Electronic Sports United is PROUD to announce our first batch of pro-gamer interviews. With the Green Forest E-Cafe: Socal Lan 5 event taking place over the weekend, I was able to get in touch multiple pro-gamers and take their opinions on the progression of the tournament as well as their training methods, life as pro gamers, state of the game (Battle.net and imbalances) and more!
*NOTE* These interviews have spoilers from Socal Lan 5 so don't watch if you don't want to know!

Highlights are now available! It wasn't ideal internet connection so many games were lost due to disconnects/random acts of God. I saved what I could. Enjoy!
It's finally time for Electronic Sports United to have a contest for the Pro Gamer Autographed Posters. We're giving away 6 autographed posters from names like Evil Genius', EG.iNkA, Zelniq, Root-Gaming's qxc, FnaticMSI's KawaiiRice, PainUser, etc. etc. These posters were gathered from the Green Forest: Socal Lan 5 and had the Pro Gamers autograph them on-site.
