RevAzndude.523 Masters: 1788~
|
how much is it to enter and to use a computer there?
nvm, guessing 15$ listed on the prize pool?
|
haha people will definately do it, but because of issues of cables and wiring, the lan is charging a 2 dollar set up fee, sorry! woo some familiar people coming =], 15 dollar, 5 dollar for venue, 10 dollar for prize pool.
|
Sweet wall -- gogogo xSixMystik fighting!
|
|

|
LOL yourself? HAHAHAH jk. Haha, hope to see LaGTT there again =]
|
Can I just register at the event or do I have to post here first?
|
any chance this is postponed a week due to the verizon lan?
|
u mean 1 week ahead since if u postpone it 1 week will be MLG week x.X
|
I'll talk to Game-lan to see if we can change this to a week ahead, i've talked to the verizon tourney and unfortunately it was unintentional and their sponsors are not willing to change, so i'll see what i can do guys =].
And yes you can register at the place, but it'll be nice to see postings here so we can get a estimate of how many chairs we should bring for the outside seatting for the bbq and the Live DJ.
|
nice... dude really try to change the date to 1 week early asap since we need to move our schedules and calendar around to for this.. since must of us are in vacations would be nice to have different lans
|
1 week before verizon or one week after?
|
1 week before .
|
after MLG please. i wont be around the week before :[. also, you can use MLG to tell people about whittier for those who want more LAN action :D
|
trying ot see if we can do this 1 week before, the current date, or 1 week after MLG
|
It's about time the socal lans start to form a permanent circuit to avoid these time conflicts.
|
I'm down 
P.S. Anyone near the Pomona area add me! ZergGirl.645
|
ALRIGHT GUYS IT IS NOT A WEEK AFTER MLG! AUGUST 6TH MARK YOUR CALANDERS EVERYONE!

|
SashaGrey Code: 169 Race: Terran League: Masters
Thanks !
|
well if a 100 people shows up, we can't really help it. Headcounts on this page still kind of iffy because a lot of people just showing up at the door and others bringing friends.
ONE MORE THING if you're bringing your set up, please post here.
|
Verizon Open had 45 competitors and about 2-3 dozen spectators, so I expect about similar numbers for this one.
|
scratch my signup, i wont be able to make it due to ride issues
|
sorry to hear Jiyan, =[. I hope we get just as many if not, more. but then again Verizon had a lot of goodies and sponsors =]. Hopefully this will be a good turnout.
We'll see how this goes tomorrow at the tournament~!
|
Update, the doors will open at 11 AM, sign ups at 12, and tournament will start at 1PM.
|
How will warm-ups work? Will there be enough computers for everyone? aka should i actually show up at 11am to be able to get a computer for practice?
|
i shall.................arrive
|
sadly most of my team wont be able to make it for multiple reasons.... sorry about that, only me and 1 of my players would be able to be there
|
|
warm ups if you arrive early yes.
|
can i get a computer jsut to chill if i dont wanna play
|
instead of $15, can I submit a physical item to contribute to the prize pool? :D
I got a Starcraft II Limited Edition Marauder Mousepad (by Steelseries)
|
|
mystik to pro 
edit: pretty good lan though, vince was really cool and the computers were good.
|
Thanks for the event, it was a good time.
Also, friendly staff who ran an efficient tournament.
Hope you do more of them in the near future.
|
ill try to make it to the next one. in the meantime. i'm really interested to know who from whittier would be interested in a GSL party or w/e. I'd probably offer up my house for a nice esports party if people are interested.
|
I heard that a few guys will be working on getting a BarCraft setup in North LA area. If that didn't happen, I'll probably make a few calls for one in the Inland Empire.
Here's a few pictures from the event:
