No, I was attempting to be funny. I edited the post because I was going to go for a joke which wouldn't make any sense. I don't actually want to bet on who's going to win, although that bet sounds reasonable to me, I'm not one of those extravagant poker plays who flings money around :D

Have they announced a map pool yet?
|
sorry to be that guy rob, but multiplays current situation regarding prize payout timeframe is rediculous, so anyone going expecting to win to make £, dont expect to get that £ for about a year
pz
should be a good tourney tho ;]
|
There's being 'that guy' and plain lying though 
|
It's good for the scene no doubt but I'm willing to bet that the money doesn't get paid for at least a year, the CS:S winners at i36 only got their money before i40, and plus i can't afford their enterance fees at all, and i don't think a multiplay lan has run smoothly since i33.

Basically you can only enter the tournament by having a BYOC ticket at a cost of £72. 512 x 72 = £36,864. £5000 prize pool could be a lot more considering that.
"IF" you qualify then you get the ticket for free but i'm guessing you can only try to register after buying the ticket so basically if you where only going for SC2 and don't qualify you just paid a lot out of your pocket unless you where going there anyways.
Unless i'm missing where you signup for qualifiers without paying for a full ticket.
nice maths.

I'm surprised if demuslim is the only progamer in there. I wish I could go there  .

Man, I'm really interested... but having to pay for a ticket to go, just to enter the qualifiers... especially for someone like me who is an amateur....
I also failed to see if it said anywhere if/who would be casting it, I hope you're casting dApollo, you made me a fan after seeing you and Day9 live at Cologne

Not sure what the confusion is here - the payment is simply to go to the event The tournament is nothing additional and the online cups before hand are simply opportunities to win free entry to i41!
|
if the tournmanet is only ran over 1 or 2 days, would it be possible to get a pass for these days, would it be possible to borrow/rent a computer to use for those days? i'm just wondering if their would be any cheaper alternatives to paying for the full 4 day ticket and to still be able to enter the tournament. anyone considering driving down from north west?
|
I got a reply from the organisers and its awesome news that:
"Our online qualifier signups aren't open yet, but will be opening either today or Monday.
There is no purchase necessary to take part in these qualifiers "
So all round these guys are awesome its like doubly good of them.
|
i'll defo be trying to qualify, i know i don't have any chance, but I can't afford £72 with xmas on the horizon.... i don't think i saying to my son "Sorry little man, but santa bought Daddy a ticket to a LAN instead of your Ben10 stuff" would go down too well lol.

Do you have time to move to Russia and outrun cars in the thigh high snow? Maybe...
Cool opportunity, I'm calling it now that DeMuslim will win!

Might go, even if it is to just get stomped by rANDY and DeMusliM.
Does anyone know if you can enter two tournaments (CS:S and Starcraft), as I remember a couple of LANs back you were able to enter both CS:S and HoN.
|
So £72 is to BYOC to the best LAN in the UK and have a great time. It is not to enter a SC2 tournament and the cost to actually run an event of this size is staggering. I'm surprised people don't understand that better. SC2 is not the only thing that happens there, not by a long shot and it's going to have to go some way to beat the sheer noise and popularity of the TF2 tournament. That said, we had a good showing at i40 and a good crowd so things are looking promising.

bah 90£ per ticket lololol even if i did live 30 mins away

id love to go, from plymouth uni, but not too fond on the camping, it was bad enough in the rain at i40.
