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.

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. | ||

They probably won't make it difficult for you, but better safe than sorry. yes i have thought of that to. And as you say, better safe than sorry. | ||

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 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.

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 | ||

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. | ||

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! | ||
