I'm sorry but this is so damn hilarious. Beyond derailing the thread, I think this is meant more for the players entering the scene who would really like to get better, but even watching streams can't seem to help... Then again, I'm sure these guys could teach a Korean gamer the true meaning of America (pizza, beer, etc.)

Bullshit, you guys are EG, and may I remind you what EG stands for? I believe the word Evil stands for the E. Your claim is definite not a fact!

the whole Korean scene will change to attack Assimilators and Cybernetics Cores instead of probes

Haha this is so good.
EDIT: I can't actually tell if your trolling or not.

Wow this sounds awesome, gj in arranging this kind of event!
|
This sounds sweet, I wish I could attend.
However, what if the Beta closes before the date? I heard somewhere that the EU beta closes on May 27th, so I'd anticipate the US one will follow shortly afterwards.

Anyone English speaking in Western Europe, if you pay my transport, give me a bed, beer and pizza I will come to you bearing a beta key and teach you to be plat sc2. This includes people who have never played sc2 and just want to try it out. I get to see random places and people with free beer and you get better at sc2.
lolol how serious are you? :p might be interested when my exams are done :p
Getting to skip the entire "wtf am I doing?" phase might be nice.

I'm sure Ganfei have posted in this thread.

First off, I am interested to see how this works out for you guys. I think it's a reasonably neat idea, and perhaps foreshadowing of more and longer versions of the same thing. One thing that does slightly concern me, though we're talking about 18 year olds (whether or not that means adults, I don't know), is the influence that you guys can have over trainees. Essentially, I'll be interested in seeing how exactly you go about coaching various people. There are very subtle cues that you guys can give off that could impact someone in a very negative way (given the context of them respecting you enough to come to your camp). That said, if performed effectively, I can see this as a powerful utility for some players.
Another thing that does surprise me is that 8:30-11:30 is not scheduled time too, going for the full scale progamer house experience. I really think you might have some potential in a 3 day span if you tried to cram *more* of the time with playing than the standard house schedule (which I think is 9 hours) until the last day where people play less. 1. people would develop stamina and have experience playing a LOT of games. 2. When people leave that tournament, they're going to want to go home and keep practicing.
idk, I've got about 8 other ideas, but, this is your thing
Good luck

very cool idea - what's the price on this looking like though?
|
thats so cool  i wish i could go but sadly i have a bunch of crap i gota do, school, work, etc :\
|
As someone who runs his own business I wanted to salute your entrepreneurship and wish you the best of luck. I suspect they will have no trouble filling their eight slots. People spend thousands of dollars on golf trips or vegas trips etc doing things they love so it is not that unfeasible that people who love SC would spend money on a trip/experience like this.
Good luck!

I would but I'm boycotting Arizona because its a fascist state.

We are looking into this, we had no idea it would be closing so early.

100% serious. I wanna do random shit this summer but I'm skint. Apparently being good at sc2 is a marketable skill so I thought I'd put it out there.

Woah, if I could go I would be just like HyungJung! :D

i applied for this, even though i live in australia. i feel i'd be a good candidate for this sort of thing. i know my geography will probably ensure that i don't get a look in but you won't see a falling star if you're not looking into the skies, right?
