Cool idea

I think making it a e-sports bar would be safer since it would interest more people. If you would show for example, Sc2, CS, HoN or something this would get attention from all three communities.

Well, since GSL is usually in the mornings, early afternoon that's an option. In the evening you havethe EU coverage of the NASL, and whenever there are IPL qualifiers they are around midnight, so you've just got to fill the gap between GSL and NASL with VODs and you'll be set

Its a good idea. But we have to star somewhere. and since StarCraft is the esport im most interested in myself it felt natural to go with it.
And SC is one of the biggest esports in the world so if any game, it should be SC i think.

Just make sure you have your legal things in order. For most high-end tournaments, I doubt you can just go on and put on public viewings just like that. They probably won't make it difficult for you, but better safe than sorry.

It infuriates me that an awesome idea like this could fail because money grubbing fat asses might decide it hurts the profitability of the tournament or whatever.

It should be made illegal to prevent this kind of ideas.

Which O´Learys in Stockholm is it? (Assuming that there are a couple). I think i'll go to O´Learys here in Göteborg and talk with them about it aswell, and it'd probably be easier if i had a reference to an O´Learys that i knew already done it.

As far as i know the common interest from people at my uni and so on, that place would be crowded pretty much instantly for something like GSL or MLG.. Epic.

I asked which O´learys earlier in the thread aswell, might aswell bump the question.

There are several O´learys in Stockholm i think around 17, 7 in the central of Stockholm

Id take the Östermalm, Gamla stan, Central station one due to location and the facilities are very nice. I think the one on Östermalm is the newest (?). My favorite is the one on Gamla Stan tho.

I definitely agree here, even the CS, HoN and LoL spectator communities together doesn't even come close to the following SC2 have here in Sweden. Always start with the safest option in risky ventures such as this, I'd hate to see this fail.

I do believe this can work out, seeing as Dreamhack Invitational was a huge success. It proves that the interest does exist, it's just a question of reaching out to your audience. Try to get the word of mouth going, get the boys on Rakaka writing some article about it(I assume you have connections there), try to advertise here on TL, create a Facebook group, tweet about it, all that good jazz.
It's the least I can do.

Uh, why do I have to live in France :-( Sweden is awesome while france is a shitty country with the worst governement, but mostly there is like 0 initiative to grow up e-sport. I'm so jealous:-/

Hope it's a start for more and more in sweden !

European events would be my advice considering the time of the day they're shown, primetime. MLG Could be a contender if it was on the eastcoast but it'd go on past closing time for most bars.
The Korean leagues are generally midday to late afternoon. The time's okay but no in any way optimal.

So that leaves
Dreamhack - Which probably is too soon
Homestory III
NASL - Which is rebroadcasted at primetime for Europe, which is pretty sweet and in 1080p.


This post makes valid points:

Choose an event which is broadcasted on a reasonable time. Afaik rebroadcasts of these can occur on weekdays aswell as weekends, it would be logical to have it on a weekday aswell, since I guessit would be harder to rent the place for weekends.

Anyways if this goes through, please repost when and excactly where this will occur and I will no doubt go there with as many friends as possible!

Two my fellow Swedish friends; In my years I have come to know you for your knives, cheese, and friendly nature.

Now can add a new item to that list - Starcraft.

Well, looks like NASL would be the best choice if Dreamhack is not available. Just ask them if it is OK

Sign me up, along with at least 5-6 other people I know! If they're sceptical with regards to the amount of interest there would be we would gladly come there and prove them wrong ) And I'll buy shitloads of beer aswell!
