I would have come from Bordeaux (700km away of Paris) if it has been set a week end, and some of my friends too, but a wednesday, no way... I think the chosen day hurts more than the attentats, since it exclude all non-paris inhabitants (french and european) | ||

previous events (in smaller venues) weren't really sold out even though they were cheaper and on weekends also, the ogaming csgo community just barely started growing, the matches aren't attracting many, very few tickets were sold for the csgo event On December 23 2015 03:40 oGoZenob wrote: yeah but it costs way less to book a venue like the olympia during the week. On the week-end, the price is twice as much these big venues are cheaper on weekdays for a reason, it's very hard to attract people not the kind of things possible in esport in france for an indie studio right now | ||

Maybe the 2 games together wasn't such a great idea, maybe those 2 communities don't want to waste their time watching a game they don't care about. Exactly why I didn't book. | ||

I mean the event can still be offline and great, Ogaming has a big studio and can easily host the players and even do an HSC esque event that would be quite sick, budget wise don't tell me it isn't doable. Also Millenium is in Paris, webedia has studio and money, don't tell me you can't have a partnership and broadcast it from there. There's also the Meltdown which could be extremely sick, and tons of other small venues in Paris. That is for SC2, because i KNOW people will come, the cs go community at ogaming is probably not that hardcore in the following. As i understand it it will be lan in the studio , which is good and can be extremely good. If its really full online ( no players in studio ) then it's a huge disappointment and non sense. | ||

It's gonna be full online with Koreans playing cross-server at 5 AM and random people lagging out. | ||

I think you fail to understand how hard it is to organize it as planned in the first place and even harder to make a change of plan on such short notice. Also you have to realize why there are not enough people in the first place. Mixing games, weekday etc. sure did not help but one of the bigger reasons is just that France has been in a state of emergency for more than a month. People obviously go out less. The government is almost plainly discouraging any kind of gathering/event. The mood and the context are just not there right now. | ||

In what way is it hard to make the players come at the date that was intended and make them play in the studio ? | ||

I understand your frustration but wishful thinking. If you think you know better than them how a deal with Webedia could work (Millennium is owned by Webedia btw), how big the studios or the places are (I somewhat laughed a bit when you mentioned the Meltdown, I think cameras do not do a good job at showing how cramped the place actually is), and what the state of emergency entails regarding travel, security and whatnot, go buy a plane ticket to France and help them organize the mess. I sure don't have that arrogance and fully understand their call. | ||

For several reasons: 1) It takes an incredible amount of time to organize something like this - you can't just shift locations with 2 weeks notice. 2) All their connections + contacts, etc. were in Paris from previous events, not to mention language barriers. 3) Plus, in general for events, every time you move, you lose people/sign-ups, and they already had too few to host an event in Paris. | ||
