Why is there a $20 registration fee and only a $75 prize. Not to mention travel time and such.

Anyway.

Sign me up for now. Although if the prize doesn't go up significantly I won't be able to justify going out there.

to be quite honest, i have to agree with qxc. lol, maybe the custom dog-tags can disappear and pour more $$$ into the prize pool.

@Stranix, yes there is plenty of space for BYOC feel free if you prefer. I'll keep a look out for the messages from your friends.

@qxc & yourwhiteshadow, I have decided to change up the prize pool and how it will work. The first place prize will be $100 + $10 for every person over 10, so pot can get up to $320. 2nd place prize will be $50. and 3rd will remain the same. Trophy and dog tags will still be provided for winners. I will be editing the OP to show the changes. If tournament grows past the 32 player limit we will consider and see if we can increase the size. This of course would increase the prize pool.

let me know what you guys this of the changes

@Psyonic_Reaver- Yes you can feel free to bring your own computer if your more comfortable playing on it, were just offering the convenience of the rented comps for those who didn't want to have to bring theirs.

Is the registration still $20 if you bring your own computer?

Also, is this a Blizzard licensed event? (http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/374722123)

I'm sure the 20$ is standard, if you bring your own setup or not.

1. The rental fee
2. The prizes and prize money.

Having worked at a lan center before, just being on the computers is nothing. its the time and space you take up.

annnnnd if qxc is coming i may have to not have a life for the next week and a half and just play massive amounts of starcarft.

@Girlscoutcookie: all the information has been submitted for licensing. Yes, Foren.sick pretty much nailed it on the head for the price of BYOC, there is still the $20 fee, but if you feel more comfortable with your set up feel free to bring it. I will post specs of computers here over the weekend.

@TheComeback: I went a head and removed incineration zone from the map list. This should make some people happy

What are the specs of Cyber Zones House PCs? It's sort of a long drive for me so i am still debating brining my own setup. And on top of the PCs what are the brands of the mice keyboard etc.

Ok for everyone that wanted to know the house PC specs at Cyberzone me and Plair E stopped by today and grabbed them, this is what you guys will be working with:

Processor: Intel Core 2 CPU 6420 @ 2.13 GHz
Ram: 2 G of Ram
Video Card: All are equipped with at least a GeForce 8800 and up
Keyboard: Standard Microsoft Brand
Mouse: Standard Microsoft laser mouse

Plenty of space for BYOC if these specs dont meet your standards, however I have personally played as well as Plair E on these comps several times and they run just fine.

Shout out to every one
were getting close to the tournament date and its getting more exciting as it gets closer!

So far we have 13 people registered to participate in the tournament (we have more attending, but do not want to participate). If you want to participate please be sure to get your spot reserved by filling out the registration info.

As it stands with the 13 people we have playing the 1st place prize consists of $130 cash prize, the TriStar Open 1st Place Trophy, and the custom engraved dog tag.

Remember the prize grows as attendance grows, so tell you friends about it, so we can all have a good time nerding out with SC!
