that sucks. sounds like there was nothing they could do though since people weren't buying tickets. probably not rational but I guess that's just normal human behavior

Dont forget that this thing can only work if both sc2 and csgo sold enough. Maybe it's the csgo community that is too small to support this kind of ambitious show. Because every ogaming sc2 offline show was sold out pretty easily
I like starcraft

2nd and 3rd of January are when the passport qualifiers for Dreamhack are happening. Hopefully as the year continues the Blizzard Calendar will ensure overlaps like this one won't happen as often as it's been in the past.

I was hoping the consolidation of tournaments would create a better organized, global calendar.

Who knows, maybe it still will.

Best of luck.

Nope because it was posted under SC2 General.

It has been settled thanks to based gods Adebisi and Aeromi.

I actually told them and posted it 1000 times on the forum, selling the tickets for +50€ minimum is a suicide for an event like that.

I don't think it has anything to do with any of the games' community (and I do think CS has many more people behind it than SC2 in France, dunno though about how well OG can appeal to these, compared to SC2 where they have a dominant position in France).

When you look at the high price, the fact it's in the middle of the week (and not even in the evening), not during holidays, that alone explains reasonably why it didn't sell that well, regardless of the emergency state.

Sad
I think there is several factor that put this event down, but i really think that the terrorism is the minor one.
1 - Price of the places
2 - Not in the best position in the week (not even during french holiday)
3 - Coupled with CS was a gamble in my opinion. I cant really know if it encourage people to come, or to not come.
4 - maaaaybe terrorism.
... but you still know all of this.

Anyway, it was a big gamble, you bet it, and pros know it's always better to say "fold" before to be allin (particulary when your hand sucks^^).
O'Gaming you're the only ones to dare thoose gambles, and we all respect you for that. Dont let this little fail shut you down.
Keep calm and cary on.

What? How so? These weren't on the same day, and with different tickets...

Also, a gamble but you don't know if it actually impacts? So it might not have been one in fact.

EDIT: Actually I would see why it could be, that is, if those two audience do not overlap at all, they have to reach twice the amount of people to sell their tickets. And if they do overlap, then the price is really high and that might be an issue.

I think a number of basic errors were made with ticket sales. We do not know who will play in the semi's and final. There is perhaps a chance that more people would buy tickets if France would qualify for the event? The same applies to other nations. Perhaps quarterfinals should have been played earlier? Obviously people were waiting for quarterfinals to finish before buying tickets. Ticket prices are rather high and deter the possibility of buying them "just in case" Im not sure if presence of Korea actually improves ticket sales either. Organizing this at 2 pm on a Wednesday doesn't make things easier. Another matter is the "Donations toward prize pool" - then only 40% cut goes toward this goal and the rest goes towards what? Taxes?. This is a good way to reduce donations.. If you want more donations the goals have to be very clear. Like 30% goes for Casters, 30% for technical staff, 40% for players - that sounds much better.
