UPDATE #5:
On September 24 2010 02:17 MLG Deimos wrote:
Seeding for Washington DC will be done in the following manner:

Players will be seeded using SC2 Pro Circuit Rank Points. Ties will be broken randomly. Players with no SC2 Rank Points will be seeded randomly. No Players will have SC2 Rank Points until the Washington D.C. Competition.

The top 32 players from the Raleigh event will have Pro Rank Points based on their final placing in Raleigh. So, the top 32 will be seeded according to the amount of Pro Rank Points they have. The other 32 players will be seeded randomly.

Rank Points: http://pro-circuit.mlgpro.com/pro-circuit/2010/washington-dc/starcraft-2-1v1/rank-points


UPDATE(S) #4: Players must bring their own mouse, keyboard, headsets, and mouse pad.  Players must use the PC and Monitor provided by MLG.

We were able to talk to the hotel to get you more time and they have extended the deadline by a week.

The deadline for booking a room at MLG's discounted rate is September 29: only a week away. Space is limited and we will not be able to extend the deadline. Be sure to book yourself a room now, before they are gone, and we'll see you in DC!

Hotel Info
Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center
201 Waterfront Street
National Harbor, MD 20745

Rate: $189 + $15 Resort Fee per night.
(One night's deposit will be charged by the hotel at the time of reservation.)

Deadline: September 29th 2010
Reservation phone: 301-965-4000 and say you are with Major League Gaming

Your headset has to meet the following criteria:

Headsets must utilize a standard 3.5mm stereo headset jack with a separate 3.5mm microphone jack. Players may not use USB headsets.

UPDATE #3:

TO EVERYBODY, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING RULES REGARDING EQUIPMENT:

  • Players must bring their own mouse, keyboard, headsets, and mouse pad. Players must use the PC and Monitor provided by MLG.
  • Headsets must utilize a standard 3.5mm stereo headset jack with a separate 3.5mm microphone jack. Players may not use USB headsets.
  • Mice and keyboards must utilize standard USB interfaces. Players may not use PS2 interface equipment.
  • All Players must submit their mouse, keyboard, and headset driver requirements by 11:59 PM ET on Monday, October 11th. No drivers, that have not been previously submitted, will be installed at the Washington D.C. Competition.
  • All Player equipment is subject to approval.
  • Players may not use 3rd party Add-ons.


Keyboards and mice must have USB inputs. PS2s are NOT allowed. PS2>USB adapters are NOT permitted. NO EXCEPTIONS


UPDATE #2: We have single digit spots we are unable to fill by invites so we are opening them up to PM submission here on TeamLiquid. If you are interested in attending MLG DC, please PM me the following:

Subject: MLG DC Invite

Name:
Handle:
Bnet ID and Character Code:
E-mail:
MLGPro Username:
Race:
ELO:
Accomplishments:

If your PM does not match the prior criteria (both format, subject, and information) I WILL NOT OPEN IT. Thanks!

UPDATE: Earlier tonight an error on the MLGPro website occurred that was unable to be known about beforehand. The passes went on sale and they sold out so fast that by the time the problem was found, the passes were already "sold out," but we were supposed to have sold 15 more.

To be fair to everyone that was attempting to buy a pass, the last 15 passes were not added afterwards. The rest of these 15 passes are going to be sold tomorrow at 23:00 GMT (+00:00) (Wednesday) for $60. Nothing is changing with the tournament structure.

Just a reminder to the TeamLiquid.net community: MLG D.C. Passes will be going on sale September 14, 2010, (this upcoming Tuesday) at 23:00 GMT (+00:00).

Thirty-two (32) passes will be available for purchase ($60 per pass for one player) so if you're wanting to show your stuff at MLG in Washington DC on October 15-17th and battle it out for part of that $7000 prize pool, make sure to buy your pass ASAP because these will go very fast. It should be noted that the Top 16 teams from MLG Raleigh will receive reserved passes for this Competition.

If you have any questions regarding anything about the event feel free to post in this thread and I'll do my best to answer it. Please do not turn this thread into a 'invite-only vs. open registration' thread. If it gets that way I will ask TL.net to close it.

The link to purchase the pass can be found HERE.

The venue for the event will be the: Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center . Rates begin at $189 + $15 Resort Fee per night and the deadline is September 22nd 2010. The reservation phone number is 301-965-4000. If the Gaylord fills up a secondary hotel should be opened.

The three Airports closest to the venue:
  • BWI (Baltimore),
  • IAD (Dulles),
  • Reagan (DCA)
The hotel is a 15-minute drive from Reagan National Airport and within a 45-minute drive from both Dulles and Baltimore Washington International Airports.

Transportation from Airport:
  • Super Shuttle services all three airports. Rates and more are available here.
Parking
  • $5.00 for first hour
  • $12.00 for 0-3 hours self parking
  • $19.00 per day self parking/overnight
  • $17.00 for 0-3 hours valet parking
  • $28.00 per day valet parking/overnight
If you simply wish to come and see the event for yourself, spectator passes are FREE. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks everyone!

So since my thread was closed, just wanted to post this here since this was a popular question for those needing to make travel arrangements to DC.

StarCraft 2 will be played on Friday and Saturday in DC. There will not be play on Sunday.

Why not host this event at the many LAN centers all around DC area? And is there going to be a spectator area and how much will that cost?

Any reason passes were downgraded to 32 again? If anything, I thought it would increase from last time.

Really hope I get a job soon so I can afford to go see this--only live an hour away

I assume they won't be on sale in the same time-frame since I see no mention of it on the site you linked--any idea when they will be on sale?

Edit: nevermind, found it! https://secure.mlgpro.com/store/category.php?action=view&cid=19 but it's blank right now

I wonder if I should buy a ticket even though I'm half bad?!

Would be cool to play either way.

Pretty much the same time-frame. The passes never sell out though so don't have to worry about that too much. You can buy at the door as well.

Looks like there might be invites again. And also could you possibly announce the list of players sooner compare this time compare to Raleigh.

Is this correct?

are there any cheaper hotels within a reasonable distance? 189 per night is insane.

There are a TON of hotels in DC, I'm sure there are cheaper options. Make sure to get a hotel within close walking distance, normally don't want to be walking around DC for too long at night, and cabs are not cheap.
