Genuinely pretty sick to see this event continue to grow.

are there vods for cheesadelphia 4 anywhere ?

Im in PA... haven't played much SC2 in a couple years really, but I just started re-downloading today.
I guess I'm just in a mood lately, cuz BW has most of my attention at the moment, and I probably told a bunch of people I was never going back to SC2, but hey,a few games wouldn't hurt here and there to switch it up. I still think BW > SC2 though ^^;
Also downloaded CS:GO a day or two ago as well....
I go to Philly a few times a year, definitely have always wanted to go to Cheesadelphia! Contemplating it in my brainz as we speak...glad I got a few months notice

Cool. I'm often in Philly. Any point going if I'm a) not good enough to play and b) too old to have nerd friends.. ? :S
and I'm curious: what's a general "minimum" MMR to sign up for something like this?

Hey friend! There's no minimum at all. We typically have a decent amount of plat and gold and below players sign up. Granted you probably won't win any games but it can still be a lot of fun to compete. We're using double elimination groups so you're guaranteed at least two series.

Cool! Yeah by minimum I just meant good enough so I wouldn't just get crushed by GMs in 5 min in all games Good enough to put up a decent fight I guess. I'm around plat at the moment so bit low. Might go as spectator though! Just sucks I have no friends into SC2 anymore.

edit: checked cheeseadelphia 4 results. There were GM/master players going 0-2 in many groups. Lol, wouldn't think about it unless I was high masters at least.
Masa, gametime, jonsnow and others there though. Lots of great players.

Sadly no  I didn't realize that Twitch had a time limit on VODs and didn't chop and upload them to Youtube in a timely manner. This is completely my fault and I won't let it happen again.

T_T oh well... i'm so glad that i have a definitive answer at least. I'd asked around in a bunch of different places to no avail.
good luck with the tourney, it's looking swell

That's an expensive signup.

Is there a "$1 contribution keyword" for this one?

It's so cloooooose! Get hype!
|
A lot of people are probably staying at hotels near the venue but is anyone looking to carpool from Philly to the Sun Center Studios location? We can split costs! I would either ride in your car or if you don't have one we could get a cheap car rental, it'd be cheaper than ubering back and forth from the event.

You should hit up Raze on Twitter, I think he's driving from Philly.
Also bracket release hype! Still a day left to register if you want to play. Just let me know and I'll reserve a spot for you, you can pay up to the door Saturday.

Ez'st tournament of my life

28 minutes and True doesn't even attempt to get to Hive, much less drop an infestation pit.

He didn't have the economy to even think about it.
