The OP used "some of the best" when they are none of the best, so I can understand that reaction.

omg nerd house is really turning into a pseudo-reality tv show

I applied. Sounds like fun.

Looks pretty sick. If you want to really get better, you'll play against anyone better than yourself.

I'm kinda interested. But I don't think I'd benefit as much as others because I have no plans on becoming a competitive sc2 player.

I think it's way a bit too early for this, no one is truly good at the game yet. The idea is awesome though and I hope I see more of it in the future!

Is there a reason for not naming price? Is it so people don't flame you for having it be expensive? Should call mtv for this. Might actually watch.

This is exactly what I was wondering. Although more along the lines of people flaming the people for paying that price, not so much them for asking it.

I totally agree.
I think it's a great idea, from a business standpoint, but also because of the fact that you know it would be a blast hanging around with everyone all in the same house, having tourneys and practice sessions.
The lectures and structured lessons could either be totally awesome at best, or, at worst, a bit on the boring side. But you can guarantee that it will be a pretty fun experience regardless.
Also, who knows, the experience might encourage a new team, or more, to form, based on players' experiences in the training camp. And this would definitely benefit eSports.

I have zero interest in doing something like this, but the idea is awesome. I support the concept completely. I'm as curious as the others, though. Why not state the price? You'd have to wade through a lot less applications of people who wouldn't be willing to pay the amount required. It'd save a lot of your time.

I wonder how the conversation will go: lil' Jonny: Hey mom, can I have $2k? Mom: What for? lil`Jonny: I need to go train for my video game, with a bunch of adults i met on the internet. Don't worry they're pro. Mom: ...
I don't see how one would learn more at this camp than from watching replays, practicing, and reading TL. Perhaps these guys should shut down the strategy section to increase the value of their boot camp  I'm sure the progamer experience and the ability to see your starcraft idols are worth the price of admission.
edit: Is that Naniwa mtwNani? 3-0'd Jinro last zotac. Learn from his zerg FE block lol.

This is pretty ridiculous and awesome at the same time.

Will, so korean Pr0Players, could become as good as they are playing at their homes without any coach guide . . .<sarcasm off>
