The room is located on the 2nd floor of CPH building, which is at the south east corner of the campus. The easiest way to get there is using the South entrance at University street. If you dont know where is UW, google map it . Also equip urself smthing to keep you a weak during games like coffee and drinks .
Yeah, I'm interested as well. How was the last starleague party? (osl ircc) Should be tons of space on and off campus, but did you guys watch it off a big screen or tv?
When is it? I live in Toronto but would consider making the trip out ;o I need to have a meeting with someone there about possibly attending next fall anyways.
Yeah, I'm definitely down. Just post the room number and time we'll be starting. I tried to come to the last one (I think it was OSL)...but came from a kegger and couldn't remember what room it was in :S
maneatingshoe, is your username reffering to a shoe that eats men, or an instance of a man eating a shoe. either way i love it
also on topic, I believe monkxly is hosting an msl party for the uwsc crew in mississagua. Might be more accessible for some. more details on this to come i believe.
I might be able to get a key to POETS and we can watch it on the big screen there. Let me look into it. If I recall correctly, it's not this saturday but the next at 4am.
The last OSL party was pretty sweet, If I had to get there was probably 15 people or so there.

The Username maneatingshoe started from a drawing that I made in grade 5 of a shoe eating a man with a suit and tophat, haha.
And I'm almost certain that you (ShinyGerbil) used my laptop at a LAN a while back in RCH to play starcraft against someone else who was there (who you proceeded to roll like 3 times)

Don't forget pizza.
Or a beer drinking contest.
Everytime that Flash loses a marine, somebody take a drink.
Everybody will be dead before morning, because Jaedong is gonna RAPE that chump.

I can't go though. Pity.
You'll definitely need like 5 beers opened ahead of time.

The date and time are pretty set, it's going to be this Saturday (the 29th) at 4am. As for a place, we'll probably try to grab a random room on campus in CPH or something. We can probably just use this thread to communicate closer to the date. I don't think I'll be able to use POETs after all

Good enough for me.
I'll be at CPH 2386 Friday night/Saturday morning with equipment ahead of time. Hope you guys like Kpop.
so i spent my time today scouting from DC follow the "indoor" path through the museum => bio and end up at slc :O.... lots of place free open, no cannons FE including RCH and MC .
Notice all the art building are locked from the entrance, dun know why but pretty sure those room are quite big and new.
i think i can dig up my shits and find a VGA cab for my MacBook but if i use mac, i dun think we will hv access to the high quality streaming and hv to watch it through sm user's stream instead.
also about time, i suggest we meet up 1 or 2 hours earlier the actual time, 1st to set it up, 2nd is to hv some lan party :D... (notice BNet 2.0 will be closed at that date ... )

See you there, GG GL HF!
Hope there will be no 1h30 dalys like the OSL =.=
p/s: quote this post at the front page, first post xD
Also, if you're not coming but I've put you on that list, let me know so I can update it. Same goes for people that haven't posted in this thread yet.
Edit: I'll also keep this thread up to date. If you're coming but not sure where you're going, PM me your cell # and I'll reply with mine so you have someone to call/text if you get lost or whatever.

That's the pointfore open right? You weren't going to win that anyway, so come to this instead I'll pick you up. Or you can sleep through your first game on sunday and just play the consolations
Hmm I'll see if I can make it. Thing is, I'll probably get most of my sleep before the event so I'll need a ride there between 3:00 - 4:00 am, depending on when I sleep and wake up. I live close to Westmount and Glasgow, near the border of Kitchener and Waterloo. Checking with Jesung now to see if he can grab me...

yo, i live right at the border close to the timhorton basic food =.=... my plan is to stay in school that day and sleep over in MC T__T
I usually park in the plaza, but people say they get tickets all the time. I've also used the phillip street townhouse parking lot as well, since they don't use parking passes or anything like that.
Doesn't everyone know the secret? You park at the plaza, then grab a bubble tea/coffee/yogurt/etc, then go change your courses. They won't ticket you, and you get a bubble tea instead of having to pay for parking. It might be less likely to succeed late at night, but there are some places that are still open (Farah's is open 24 hours a day, Pita Factory and Just'n Pita close at 4).
Korynne and I will quite likely show up for this. Looking forward to meeting many of you. ^_^
Should be able to show up. Anyone can give an idea of when people will actually be there? I'd show up a bit early if there was going to be any activity, probably.

edit: I think Phillip St. would be best. Park in the residence parking lot and walk over.
I live @ WCRI on Phillip St, you shouldn't have a problem parking here past 6 pm - 8 am, ircc they check between the morning and afternoon.
So what time roughly have these uw final parties been lasting to?
I'm trying to use a Grey Hound to get on campus but not sure which time to pick for the return trip, maybe a question for the people who have gone to one of these before but I'd just hate to leave early and miss out on some fun.
Also, anyone wanna chill before Mega gets the Kpop going? Looks like I'll be there about 1:30 if all goes smoothly.
the ticket is vaild for the whole day long so you can return anytime you want even though its not the time you booked it. you probably wana hv around 4~5 hours to watch this, may be 6~7 if power outage
from prior experience, the ceremonies start at 4, but a combination of pregame hype + yapping + a performance by IU (uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh) means the games will start at around 4:30. From there, it'll last as long as a PL match, which could be anywhere from 1 hour (triple 4/5 pool anybody) to 5-6 hours (5 epics)

Cool, you're pretty close by. I heard it's pretty hard sleeping in the MC Comfy Lounge, though... you could try asking Jesung if he's ok with picking you up from home, too.
Man all these people going I wish I could make it now
You probably want to take a greyhound to the Charles Street Terminal. Idk if it makes any stops in waterloo. I also don't know if any city buses run at 2 in the morning though.. If they do there's an express that stops at UW though
Just a reminder that since we're hosting this on campus without permission, there may be interruptions/last minute room changes. If anything happens, I'll update the thread and try and leave a message in the current room.

Naeb, which greyhound bus are you planning on taking and from what terminal/departure and arrival time?
I haven't bought any tickets yet as I'm finishing roofing a house for my unkle in Niagara Falls, should be done early enought to rush home, grab my OZ jacket and catch the 11:30 bus at Torontos main bus term.
I didn't really check the other Toronto stops for time but let me know which times you choose and I'll join you if I get back to Toronto in time. As I said earlier, I'll be there if all goes smoothly.

Hi, I wasnt planning on going because I have work tomorow but I think ill just call in sick. I live in Mississauga so depending where in Toronto you are I wouldnt mind getting you guys and if its somewhere downtown then if you guys could make it to kipling station that would make it a lot easier. PM me if you interested so I can give you my cell number.

I honestly don't think this will be an issue. Last time there was no problem, and I'm sure you've all hijacked a room late at night to do things before.
Yeah I can't wait, lots of travelling to make this one but when I missed the last on, I promised I'd make this one! Get to meet up with people that went to Infinity's last LAN and then meet new ones. No better way to watch SC.

Fuck..... I was thinking about going, but I can't..... I'm coaching football, and I would have to leave early because our game will start before the MSL even ends :/
There's no point going if I can't be there for the whole thing, for sure.....
Blame the City of Guelph for preventing us from having football fields...... Apparently, they view football as "brutish" and "violent", and gave the fields away to some adult Ultimate Frisbee players.....
However, I might be able to show up for a SC2 tourney. I'll keep watch of this thread, for if it happens.
On May 29 2010 11:57 Corinthos wrote: What exactly are you guys planning to do/or doing till 4?
I'm just chilling on my computer like i would at home... there's a starcraft set game going on. Basically like we're just doing what we would normally do when we get together on a Friday night for starcraft. Though some of them are leaving soon.
So there'll probably be just me, Elyot, NB, and maybe 1 other person around.
Me and Elyot will probably just watch a movie, I might take a nap (I can sleep anywhere in any condition practically... I napped sitting on a tarp on dirt ground of an outdoor rave right next to the speakers once. xP)
So like, there's nothing exciting so no need to come early unless you wanna start something exciting or just chill. xD
Edit: Also ignore NB, there's like 20 plugs in this room. xP They're just spaced out throughout the rows.

Wow, this happens frequently on Friday nights? (meetups) Will we be getting food or snacks?
Well me and my group of friends meet up for Starcraft like once a month-ish? We've been hanging out more now that it's summer (though I have to work...). But like we've also started playing more board games instead of just starcrafting. *shrug*
We bought some food before coming here. Pita factory closes at 3am I think? Campus pizza closes at 5. So if you want food go before then, you could probably gather a group to go (but we're settled right now I think).
Alright, I just arrived here, and NB, Elyot and Korynne (and David (nonTL)) are all here. I ran into a couple of issues seeing as some of the outside doors are locked, but if you just keep looking you'll find one that's open.
Super Duper Finals Party! We definitely can't afford to not do these for the upcoming events! (SPL finals and other starleagues) I hope they're not during exam time

that was just a bonus, everything was basically a blast

flash 3-0 sweep :D
Ofc when your on the Flash bandwagon, geez.
Even so you have to admit that it going 5 games would have been better then a 3-0.
you guys are lucky I wasn't there. I was doing mad fanboy dances for Flash during the OSL party vs MOVIE. A 3-0 vs JAEDONG night would have been obnoxious... Not to mention I would bring better beer, since the honey lager garbage chennig had last time made me feel sick

Don't worry, there was enough obnoxious Flashfans to pick up the slack for you

i dun know how this post make us lucky? shouldnt it be unlucky instead?
