Hi,

My name is FrOsTy and I was wondering if anyone out there in any region (specifically L.A. for me) is going to have a Starcraft 2 launch party/Lan on or around July 27th. I am willing to help organize if anyone out here in this area wants to get 1 together. I think it would be great to meet a lot of the faces you see here in the TL community and what better place/time than an SC 2 launch party. DM me or comment if you have any plans on getting one together and want/need some help. Lets get this thing going.
They are here to right our fall, they have heard someones troubled call???

LOL. I'll be in LA when the game comes out. I go to school here and have an internship planned for the summer.

I live kinda close to LA.. if the meetup is not too far away then i'll be down for it.
Did you already preorder sc2?
I have no intention of buying the game at launch. I know my friends are going to get it, and I'll just borrow it off them since none of them are by definition "hardcore."
I know - shame on me.

2. @cursor really? this isnt plentyoffish or something. We are nerds, not creepers... well, hopefully at least.

Anyway, I'd love to help admin something.

You guys should go to Fry's for the developer signing and take some pix. Don't they usually do one for each product release?

Hmm I think it is likely to be at several Fry's locations in Socal at the same time. According to my bro, I think two Fry's stores were holding developer signings for WoW.

I live in Orange County and I'd more than likely be down.

Iirc they were some developers at the Fry's closest to me in Orange County for the release of the two WoW expansions so it's very possible they'll do that again.

this might not be the most appropriate thread for this, but I didn't want to make a whole new one as it's about something in October..

I am in New Zealand, and this year my bf and I have decided to go to Blizzcon. The flights/accomodation have already been booked, so we're going regardless of whether I can get the event tickets or not.

It'd be great if anyone wants to meet and/or show us around. I am very much not into "tourist" things so prefer not to prebook any 'adventures' via my travel centre, but rather check out the actual ways of the people there, which is why meeting some locals would be handy. Also you can tell me places to avoid. I'm a bit scared of getting shot O_O

We'll be in LA (staying in Anaheim) 19-24 Oct, and in Las Vegas 24-26 Oct.

Only Fountain Valley and Anaheim Fry's get devs.

Blizzard's website always have these devs launch parties.

Seems like a cyber cafe would be a much better meeting place than just someone's home. Considering how populated the LA area is, we must have quite a few TL members here. A cyber cafe will be well equipped to handle such a crowd. Besides, IT IS LA, is anyone okay with two or three dozen random people arriving at your doorstep/office with gears and towers in tow?

HDStarcraft had uploaded a video recently of a bay area one at a cyber cafe, which seems to work out pretty well:
Thank God and gunrun.

we don't allow any PCs in store and + we have to set up internet manually with IP address. If you guys want to come over it's an hour away from LA. All nighter is $20 but i can give you some discount. check http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=128534 to see our pictures.

So is this a lan party after the midnight release?

Also speaking back to the Fry's devs. launch parties; has anyone heard anything about them? I know they had them for each WoW game and judging from the pictures it seems pretty awesome, and I can't see why they wouldn't have it for SC2. So anyone hear anything from Blizzard?

Starcraft II's release date is about only a month away.

I know that Gamestop and Best Buy are having some midnight launches, but that's quite different from one at Fry's with developers and 3k+ people (WoW).

Yeah, the OC is pretty chill compared to us LA folk.

Wish I had a car so I could go to some of these places. The EG Cafe looks awesome. :D
