Are the SC2 tournaments played on 1 day? Or during the entire weekend?

The tournaments are going to be spaced throughout the entire weekend however there will be alot of people attending to just play three days of SC2. The UofC StarCraft II club will also be on site putting together some fun SC2 action. We have a staff meeting in a couple weeks to finalize tournament schedule. Alot of depends on how many people want to enter into each tournament.
There is at least $500 worth of equipment being awarded in the SC2 tournament and our major sponsor Sapphire Tech is going to contribute some additional prizes as well. We are just waiting on prize confirmation from them at the moment.
|
On the site, if we register and pay, does that mean we're placed in tournament brackets automatically? or is there a different process to sign up to play in the tournament.
|
We will be registering people for the SC2 tournament day of the event and considering it was the most anticipated game last year we expect a fair amount of people signing up to compete. This event is sponsored by The Peregrine and also our global sponsor "Sapphire Tech" has taken an interest in sponsoring the SC2 tournament as well. Still waiting on prize confirmations from them but it is shaping up that the StarCraft II tournament will be the tournament with the most prizes being awarded.

Just a heads up that the UofC SC Club will have a huge presence in the tournament and I believe that in the top 8 at least half will be from the club 
|
At least half? Hmm. That sounds like a challenge.

Hahaha, there's only like 10 people in the SC club. Not much to say about that =P

Taking 3 days off work for the lan would be brutal for me, however is the SC2 tourney was just run on one day I would take the day off for that!

The main thing is that there is 4 tournaments taking place at the event and making sure that an entire day of SC2 wouldn't effect the other tournaments. We'll be sure to talk about this at our next staff gathering and keep the thread updated.

Does this mean that there will be no limitations on the amount of players that are able to participate in the tournament? (which would also mean a bigger prize pool?)

There is a max of 100 participants at the event and alot of those people are competing in other tournaments outside of SC2. We are discussing this weekend about having a participant cap for the SC2 tournament mainly cause we have 3 other tournaments taking place and we don't want to lose track of time. StarCraft II is an awesome game however we have to respect the other tournaments taking place at the event.
The prizes for the SC2 tournament are not effected by the amount of participants competing. Project X has hosted a series of SC2 only events in the past and it is something we will continue doing after this LAN party in May.
Don't worry cause the UofC SC2 club will be on site and while the other official tournaments are taking place there will be plenty of time for some fun tournaments. The vast majority of the people attending have StarCraft II and I am sure at 5:00 am you can easily find someone to 1v1 against.

Yes, if you create an account on our forums there are people looking to create a CS:S team or you can create a thread talking about how your looking for a team. At the event we will call all the team captains and misc. people to the front and those that dont have a team might be able to create a team at the LAN. It is risky but we have found enough solo people to create a team before.
