?

no really though there is no way we're gonna remember to not spoil results after a hours of playing sc and later few bottles of soju. why not watch live? can this be arranged?

maybe if we lived on the west coast, but thats only 4 hours of sleep

and you guys only have to worry about me + soju. and since im not watching all is safe.

why not threaten to ban people who spoil the results, i like this idea ^_^

what about a before-party at a more reasonable time, like if we met up at haemonculus's house with the vods at like 9:30am or something and watched then?

Hrm maybe the vods wouldn't be released yet tho I dunno how quick they usually get released nowadays :\

OSL must punish us for living on the east coast. How about the MSL? Is that also at an equally unreasonable time? I don't think the VOD's will be up for OSL THAT early, in fact it'll be disgustingly hard to keep the LAN spoiler free.

it'll be impossible to stay spoiler free all day.

flash is gonna rape face but I'd still rather watch before getting spoiled.

If everyone could go to sleep at 6-7 PM and then weak up at 4-5 AM that'd be great. :p

But obviously that ain't happening

We will just have to remind every single person when they come in to not spoil it under pain of death. I think its very possible to make it i have faith in tl members i swear.

I think its still best to keep the osl viewing after the lan. Everyone just talk about sc2 in the mean time ^_^

yes warn them. Not everyone is going to go to the after party but a decent number probably will and guys like eshlow are only planning to go to that.

yes sorry if I didn't respond I'm not responding to every message, getting alot lately.

Prize is good, you'll be our only sponsor probably for the bw tournament ryan, some sort of backing to give the tournament some sort of stakes is good. there's always a line to skirt with these lan's of how competitive or how casual to make them. I know the majority of people attending are of a more casual variety (at least in terms of actual skill) so I typically try to keep the tournament fairly casual to appeal to everyone, (hence no buy in etc promoting everyone to play purely for the fun of it) I want everyone coming to play and have fun because ultimately that's the goal at these lan's. but I also want to reward the better players who are coming, or who are driving from a distance to play in an event. Some higher level players travel to play in an event and you get a higher quality of games and a more intense feel when there's at least SOMETHING on the line so that's the great thing having at least some sort of a prize adds.

by the way this is all for the bw tournament, it's interesting how the majority of the voting is for starcraft 2 yet I'm only receiving support help and prize pool donations for the bw tournament. so far I've only been contacted by ONE person who can bring an sc2 installer on a flash drive and NOBODY wants to help orchestrate the tournament (posted for some help last page).

lulz if you guys expect me to run two tournaments alone it'll end up being two bw tournaments rofl.

I didn't tell you on any PM, but I said I could try to bring the installer since its only like 2.5 gb on a flash drive, but thats just the installer and it'll take longer to download all the patches. As for running the tournament, Throw up a bracket, bring a piece of paper and a pen and people can write results of matches down and we'll know who advances that way. Simple as that :o

no other lan center as big and as cheap in the area sadly stuck using the dark smokey ghetto lan center that is SeoulPC.

their non smoking section is fail, it's not even well separated from the rest of the place.

so caucasianasain can be sc2 bracketmaster I'll be sc1 bracketmaster. yay.

surprisingly (or maybe not surprisingly) half the ppl who go to these lan's are chain smokers themselves, buncha cancer stick users srsly.

as of right now we have 33? that's quite impressive by far the largest group we've ever had. this lan has been annoyingly difficult to organize and plan primarily because of this crazy sc2beta stuff and increased number of interested users and osl finals same day...
