"Sponsor and venue complications"? That post sounds overly cryptic to me.



Doesn't sound cryptic to me. They couldn't find enough money to fund this and rent out the venue.


Where are you getting that information? There are a lot of other things involved in hosting an event like this. There are a hundred little places that wrenches could have been thrown in to put hiccups in the planning.

This thread almost already has as many replies as the original Ultimate Barcraft announcement thread.... fail promoting IMO for such a huge event where 10k + people was touted to be expected.

I was really looking forward to it almost as much as BlizzCon itself. Such sad news.

What do you mean? I'm getting my info from the OP. $$$$$ is the main issue. I don't know how much clearer kennigt's post could be without just stating that. Who cares about sponsors unless you need them for money? It's really not that hard to understand this is a funding issue. How much clearer do you want them to spell it out for you? You want them to give you the exact amount of money they fell short on? Of course they won't reveal that info.

Now there's an event that headlining Live On Three.

This year's was better organized, and last year was a success. With the amount of interest, I'm feeling like something is fishy here.

Somehow, I can't shake the feeling that it's not a coincidence that EG is benefiting so much from this cancellation.





EG is apparently getting really powerful and actually evil. Whenever something bad happens in the community the EG conspiracy theories pop up. Before long EG will be responsible for the European debt crisis.

EG, the NPO of E-sports.

(you are a nerd if you get the reference)

Sad to see this happened, I hope next time the venue can be worked out because it's far too awesome an idea to abandon completely.
