Wow that looks very sexy! I wish I could go.
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

Your tone in your last few posts is very hostile and condenscending for no reason at all, I suggest you tone down a bit.

Here's a picture that actually shows all seats. I did a quick rough count of heads and I get to ~950. There could easily be 150 more somewhere on the edges or squeezed in. Take your own advice and count the seats yourself if you doubt my count.

Picture in spoiler:
+ Show Spoiler +

[image loading]


("right click -> show image" to see full image)

the seats in the back have just above 350avalible seats.

the lower part still has 500 so i cant understand what you get those numbers from.

And you have obviously not been there as then ofc you would know that the sides are reserved for TV cameras and VIP, not to say that 2rows that wasnt used at all, lower area row = 24seats, upper area = 34seats, wich wasnt used at all.

i'm not being hostile but it's frustrating when people provide this random numbers like 1500

lower area (middle)

have 24seats on the top, i'm not sure but i believe the arena closest to the set have like 1-2seats less but lets just make it simple

there are 18rows as far as i counted 24x18 = 432

The lower part of the theater on the sides has never been fully avalible and on either side because they are reserv for cameras and other press members. i believe there was about 60-90seats avalible, not sure if i counted correclty there because at some rows there are only 5avalible seats and some have 7 and one have only 3 so, around that amount.

so wich basicly gets you to the 500mark.

the back part left side have 7seats avalible 6rows = 42seats + 3extra in the back there you can see some crews so 45 in total if i saw correctly?

middle area upper part 34x8rows 272 and right side of wich is 8x7rows wich brings the number up to 56 on the right side.

wich makes it all (+-500)+ 272 +42+56 =870

Is't a lot of seats, well ye, is't 1100 as they state? far from, could probably reach that number of they didnt use up so much area for hosting, but ofc since you guys have obviously not been there, there is just no way you could know how many seats they have had avalible, wich is far less.

http://www.elmia.se/Global/Moten-och-Event/documents/Faktablad/ElmiafaktaHammarskjöldsalen.pdf

"Antal platser: 1.097 (främre parkett: 550)"

I was there by the way. Both for the Quake Live, BLC and Starcraft 2 finals.


This is actually correct. Add to that that some seats are taken by casters+production and you will have something around 1000 people there that watched StarCraft on DH Summer.

Some people seem to be a bit critical regarding how they will be able to fill it up and for me that seems kind of weird.

Last DH Summer there were 1000 people watching the SC2 final where people waited a long time to get in. At least 500 people couldn't get in and then you also had people that saw the enourmous line that thought to themselves "Oh, no chance I'm getting in to this - I better watch the stream on my computer".

DreamHack Summer had over 1000 people more than last DH Summer so DH is growing. I wouldn't be surprised if we will have 14-15K people attending DreamHack Winter.

Just by looking at these numbers there's a possibility that 3K+ people already attending DreamHack will show up to the final day at DreamArena just to watch eSport - maybe even more.

Add to that the marketing, hype, growth of eSports and you will probably find 1000 more people that want to come for this amazing event - or even stay more days for this event.

There were some that were sceptical for DH Invitational in April - it sold out in days! There were some that were sceptical about filling a bar with people watching StarCraft - it went total bonanza and 5 BarCrafts were held with about 1000 Swedes watching DH Valencia.

Do not underestimate Swedens love for eSports.

wow really nice!

one thing tho

I do not understand why at venues there are usually 3 screens instead of just 1 bigger one? Why? is it cus they just dont have a bigger one? I think most people would like 1 huge one instead as with 3 you don't really get any benefit.

Also, it seems unfortunate for people if they have to sit at the edge. They will barely be able to see anything?

If it's an arena, is there actually space behind the wall behind those projectors? Maybe they could get a bit more space, and then the 2 screens on the side can be tilted back just a bit so that people on the very edge of the seats can still see.

I'm quite sure this will be filled, considering the line Dreamhack Summer 2011 had and Dreamhack Summer only have half of the attendees of Dreamhack Winter, and the majority standing in it didn't even get in and I guess Dreamhack knew they had to make it bigger.



A video in Swedish showing the line, and this was before the final but the line just grew and grew.
