haha all i said first was i don't think ppl would that go to these tournament enjoy maps most of us don't know about(not saying iccup is unknown, talking about the certain map) and i think gsl maps would be a better choice and then you got angry and said "you just want GSL maps and mlg because they're popular!" you sound like a 12 year old. Maybe you should think before you post.

Excellent BigJimmeh! That's the kind of support we need in this community to make these events a blast.

An update on the tournament:
Promo poster should be finished soon and the main post will be updated with it. As well I'll be
travelling around Edmonton finding alternate venues willing to let me advertise.

Big bonus today, the very nice people at Oodle Noodle downtown (who are also running Noodlecraft!) donated several gift cards to be added to our prize pool. Hell yeah!

And as a final note I'm starting up SC2 Edmonton on Twitter and Facebook to help organize this tournament and the many to come. Look us up and give us some love, and watch our scene grow!

I'll be there (as always), bringing both MintyStone and Boreas along for the ride as well.... Great idea to help get the lower leagues a chance, and inspire a sort of bond between "high" and "low" level play

Hmm, this is pretty cool looking. I might need to come out for this one, for the first time.

I haven't been playing for a while due to an injury, and then the sickness of stream-watching instead of playing, but I've been meaning to get back into practice as the school year is starting again, and this might just be my motivation. :p

This is super tempting. I might have to drop be, even though I'm only a plat toss.

The whole point of this is that you will get the chance to place farther into a tournament regardless of what level you are, meaning more games and a lot more time to socialize with players that are better than you and ask them for their help. Since the top tier players need the lower tier players to win their games the top players are influenced to help out the lower tier players. It's a really good concept, and hope I can make it. Pretty sure Zack got me sick. 8(

Hey guys we're just a week away from our tournament! Get hyped!

I'm going to be writing down names of everyone who confirms on their attendance to reserve you all spots in the tournament. Just post here or on the face book group and I'll add you to the master list!

Im interested in this a lot. I just started playing SC2 about 2 months ago and would like to see what the community is like. I tried making an account with OverKlocked on their site but it bugged like crazy with the email confirming and now my username is taken and not working

Anyways, hopefully I'll be able to make it out to this.

P.S. Where is this place lol, I couldn't find it on google maps with the address on their site.

Any people going from Calgary that can give me a ride? I was going to go with my roommate who has a car but he's busy...

Hey guys tomorrow's the big day, and I'm pumped! I'll be at OK early tomorrow setting up so feel free to stop by early. Plus, if we get most of the players signed up before 12:45 then we should have a smooth start at 1 pm!

See you all there!
