EPTPersonally, this tournament has inspired me to practice more, join this tournament (haven't registered yet though haha), and sign up for the DC LAN that's happening on the same day. If that's not proof that these tournaments encourage females to participate in more competitive gaming events, I don't know what is.

This is not a discussion topic on whether you think women should run separate tournaments. This is a thread for the NESL Iron Lady events. If you would like to sign up or wish them well or offer aid and support, this is the place. If you want to complain about the work they've put in or their message, don't. This is your warning. - Jibba 16:18PM EST / 05:18 KST | ||

I think that would be like asking " why have bronze/silver/ lower league tournaments?". so what you are saying is... all the best girl gamers are less than gold league, and they cant compete in normal high tier competitions? did i understand right? | ||

I don't understand why so many people want to hate on these kinds of tournaments. There are plenty out there with similar restrictions based on age, gender, geographic location, etc. All for this, good job organizers. I agree, i do not understand why so many hous have to come into every thread about female tournaments and shit all over it. They might take thier shit with nice language, well thought out arguments and a nice tone, but it is still a shit. All in all reminds me of this: Back on topic, good luck with the event! Hope to see some VOD's popping up in the future. | ||

I think after a few women only tournies to encourage the female competition we'll see some of them want to try their hand at the existing larger tournies which would be awesome. Get a known caster like Day9, Artosis, etc to cast the finals and maybe even semis and I think you'll get a damn nice turn out. I know I'll watch! Yeah day9 should cast it, I could watch anything day9 cast .... even paint drying :p | ||
