Sundance made this a directive. To quote him: "We're doing booths. Figure out how to make it happen. And make sure they're actually sound proof."

We're working on it. Should have more word soon.

Buy them from wherever the other tourneys are getting them, and then pack sound proofing over all the gaps. And blast music in there. And put the Halo tournament farther away.

I've built a soundproof studio in my basement. It doesn't have any finish, but it gets the job done. Anyway, it should cost under a grand to build a proper studio/booth. It's not hard to find plans and tweak them to meet your needs.

I wish it were that easy. it's not nearly that easy in our world...

Keep in mind that the booth has to travel across the country 5-6 times a year. It needs AC to keep the players cool and have a window which we can get a shot of the player into. Not saying it's hard or unusual, but the reality is, most of the sound proof booths people are using aren't actually sound proof. The new GSL booths are. And the MLG booths will be as well.

The unit you built in your basement would probably fall apart on the road. We need something that we can load onto a truck, assemble quickly and then break down again for storage. All while maintaining the integrity.

There's several vendors that we're working with on this. it'll be done right. Sundance has decreed it so... :D

Who knows what'll be next - perhaps a working stream?

That's what we want to see. I am sure this is because Dreamhack had it, so MLG doesn't want to be worse.
This is what needs to happen in SC2 scene... one tournament taking a small leap, then the rest following along, and before we know it, it will be standard.

great stuff, looking forward to the next event even more now. For all the problems that plagued the last event when it was working it was really nice. This only furthers that. Good job MLG!

you don't need fully sound proof booths just use it in combination with

1. noise isolation ear buds
2. heavy duty ear muffs
3. facing the speakers away from these booths
4. playing music in the booths
5. keeping a booth babe in the booths (seemed to work for the msl)

I dont think you need ac maybe just ventilation since mlg venues seem to be freezing and sc players need to keep their hands warm

edit- also you guys need to fill up the dead air between games leaving people alone like that kinda makes them lose interest fast. Dream hack used a lot of user created content and the NASL got the when cheese fails guys to create content for them.

at least booths will offer more ad space so hopefully that will cut some of the costs
