You'll be guaranteed at least a few matches in Pool Play, and we've gotten a few Golds, Plats etc... out before, so please don't be intimidated if you're not a tip top player, it can still be fun and very good for practice and learning to play in things like this.

a little bird told me that you selected this weekend because you knew for certain that Hendralisk could not attend.
|
That's not why it was selected, I actually didn't know that until just now if its the case.
Henry is just scared of MaSa anyway clearly
|
Oooh Im in Toronto that weekend too hmmm >:D
|
Looking forward to watching some sweet sweet Canadian Starcraft! Awww yeahhhh
|
Sweet! No red city. I'm in :D Edit: can we bring our own laptops? The last LAN I was at had small monitors on the computers provided.

I've heard there's actually a Montreal LAN the very next day.
As for bringing your own laptop...there's like maybe 1 or 2 spots to plug in your own, however the PCs provided are pretty good, there won't be a problem with screen size or anything like that, they're full reasonably powerful PCs meant for gaming. So don't rely on being able to use a laptop, there won't be space for everyone if multiple people bring one, plus its not as fair.
|
shit Toronto "Standard" Looks like im not qualified..
Anyways I think I gotta head to a cottage on saturday.. So sad. really wanted to play
|
Registered!
Although not very high skill I'm looking forward to this. First Time I've ever lanned and tourney'd. Looking forward to meeting some people who can maybe show me what I'm doing wrong.
|
A lot of people ask every time if it's ok they're not high skilled, and yes its perfectly fine.
We're doing group play so you're assured a few games at least, and it's good practice and good to get used to a LAN setting. It's also very much just a social event too, meet fellow players and so on, so please don't be hesitant to join just because you're not a high league.
|
I would love to see two brackets, one for plat and up and one for gold and below.

It's been tried before, there's just so much less interest in the lower bracket, and there's potential to smurf it when money is involved.
Unfortunately a Silver still just loses to a #1 Gold, and it really doesn't attract the numbers we'd like. If there is a demand for it, I'd like to do it, but it hasn't been a very successful thing generally.
|
Is anyone going to this coming from K-W? Just shooting out and idea; I'd prefer to catch a ride with someone or travel on public transit not-alone
|
eSports will be with you the whole time
|
Can we pay on site or do we have to pre-register?
|
Yes, you can pay on Site, but there's always the risk of it filling up.
So if you can pre-register, please do
|
Heading up there soon, if you can't make it out today, look for it to be streamed starting at Noon Eastern time, Cast by eSC Songers and eSC Jovian....with likely guest casting from me when one of them gets hungry
