Same. O.o
Too bad I'm I have class on December 9th and 10th and in Montgomery no less (WVUTech w00t). If I can get some plans made maybe I'll be there though at least on Friday/Saturday.
|
Shouldn't this be under Starcraft2 tournament section?
|
Yes it should lazyfeet. But I guess since incontrol will be there the place in which this thread resides is irrelevant. Advertising at it's most malicious level.
|
I seriously considered going to school there when I lived in WV. It's an awesome school and this should be a blast
|
Woah, surprised to see Machines name in a West Virginia LAN lol, pretty sweet. Thats a hell of a travel from Arizona to WV
|
I've been hoping for a LAN near WV for Marshall's Winter break! This is only like 3 hours away, which is awesome. Are the fees cover charges because it is in an internet cafe? Like if I just want to spectate the 3rd day can I still come in without the $20? Just curious... I'd probly still pay it all just to hang out!

Hey Jarf1337 =)
Spectating is free for the whole event your welcome to stop by anytime meet Machine and watch the games =D the prices are just to cover the prizes for the events we would love for you to come in and just enjoy the event, we created this for everyone to come in and enjoy StarCraft not to make tons of money =) we hope to see you there!
Also a side note you can just play per hour you don't have to participate in the events as long as a computer is free your welcome to it.

We would love to have you, there is a lot of interest in StarCraft around the area I hope this event draws the StarCraft players out and shows everyone how big the local StarCraft community really is. If you need directions or have any questions let me know. See you there!

Machine will not be playing in the advanced tourney. However I bet he would be game to destroy the winner in a show match =P

Oh sorry, didn't know there was 2 threads about this. I should be good to make it. Sounds like fun!

What's the prizes for the Advanced Tournament?
edit: Oh didn't see the other thread. All the prizes are still TBD though? T_T
