If enough people are interested I'm up for organizing an impromptu money pool for the top finishers. The head organizers decided against making this an officially money tournament because the lack of ability to install drivers for equipment could inhibit top performance.
|
Sounds like fun! sign me up

(i sent a reply also)
|
Hey email was sent ^^ Talked to you earlier about 4 of us showing up :D
|
I approve of more socal tournaments.
|
Email sent. Happy to see more SoCal LANs.
So no drivers. Do the comps have logitech setpoint or something similar? I use the side mouse buttons as Shift and Ctrl (Hooray no carpal tunnel).
I've never played the non-ladder maps. That should pose an interesting challenge.
|
Sorry, they don't have anything like the logitech or razer mouse software.
|
Haha, this will be like a Fullerton redux
|
day9 will be at MLG. If only the scheduling won't be so tight ..
|
zzz. Should reschedule this to next weekend. MLG is lololol conflicting
|
next weekend would be blizzcon -.-;;
|
so next next weekend. What's the rush?
|
Well after that CSL starts...
|
i pitched that idea to the other organizers but they weren't so hot on having it pushed back that far

|
We know who the real USC is, the one who isnt on probation. :O
|

Supreme Court says no. You guys have great marketing possibilities anyway going by COCKS, don't understand why you keep fighting this losing battle.
|
by the way for seeding in the groups, im going to look at your ladder points on friday. O_o so ladder as hard as you can before then :D
|
Aww I don't get to see Day[9] there T_T
|
|
I'm down for this. Lets defend house!
|
too bad this is in the engineering building and not somewhere else like.. english dept, then we might have a chance of bumping into some cute chicks which SC has plenty ...
UCLA fighting!
|
Hopefully there's still some spots left
|
updated op.. only 2 spots left!
|
Even if you don't make the first 32 you might as well show up (not guaranteed though obviously) because there's always people who flake out

Lul, it's the communication and journalism school that's stacked with hot sorority girls, but the tournament's on a saturday anyway so there aren't that many people around.
Also, like Kraznaya said, even if you don't get into the tournament, you should still come and hang out. All of the comps also have PS3s,X360s, and Wiis hooked up so if you bring games and controllers, we'll be converting the computers to freeplay once were in single elims.
Not to mention we're right by K-town which has some of the best food on Earth...
|
I e-mailed, but I'm going to be unable to make it, I don't want to take a spot from someone else who can.
|
aww i have church stuff during then :[

|
WHY THE FUCK IS THIS ON SATURDAY. The USC vs Cal game is at 12:30. No self-respecting Trojan would miss it. And I don't know how people are even going to get here... It will be absolute total madness for the football game, campus packed to the gills with tailgaters, etc. This should be on Sunday.
I would be on this like white on rice except for such a stupid scheduling conflict. :'(
|
omg that weekend is the CAL game?!?! shit gonna be crowded as fuk.....
btw xkrazyx is my friend from UCI and where is there -____- nxt to my name =O
|
there now all of you have a silly face next to your name 
also considering have a rule that all UCLA players have to play with one hand and a blindfold :3
|
where is a good place to park O_o
|
Hm. I had a choice to go to either UCLA, USC, HMC, or Duke. Chose Duke. One of the biggest regrets of my life.
|
How does parking and the stuff work?
Thanks!
|
updated OP with important stuff
|
anyone driving down from orange county? wanna car pool, let me know. PM Me
|

Is Starcraft II an engineering requirement at USC? University of StarCraft?
Why did you guys have to put weird smiley faces on UCLA players

|

The stream is up for the winners bracket finals...aretemadison vs hyungbean. Look them up - I'm suprised that we managed to get 8 top 200 NA players at usc into the top 16 =_= (I got knocked out in groups, although to be fair i was in the hardest one by results)
|
event is still going, despite what the TL calendar says
|
hyungbean fighting!
edit: nvm its darren lol. DARRENC FIGHTING
edit 2: oh nvm its both lol! UCI FIGHTING
|
thanks to everyone who came out! i'll post up photos and a replay pack tomorrow but im wiped right now >_<
|
Blabber. Darren will destroy all in 2010. In SoCal.
|
Big thank you to the people who made this tournament happen. The location was pretty sweet, with every competitor having their own computer.
The level of competition was surprisingly high, the tourney was smooth, and everyone was pretty cool. Got some good critique of my game from better players, which I wouldn't get outside of that setting. (i.e. "Stop watching the battles")
Won a sweet ThermalTake CPU fan, and gave away enough Red Bull to keep a rave going. More SoCal LANs like this one!

I did just as well as you! Yesterday was the day that I could falsely claim that I rank just as high as Robbie.
|
Haha good times. Maragin thanks for the Redbull. I normally don't drink energy drinks, but now I kinda want one everytime I play. Everyone should definitely come to the next one.
|
Congrats to the winners. I'll try to make it out nexttime! Was swamped with midterms that weekend. t-t
I'll be throwing a tourney sometime in november. Rauk, maybe we can work something out together and plan for an event . I'll hit you up brotha!
