At the moment it looks like 11, but maybe a few more depending on those still tentative or some who may not know about the thread yet. Also I wouldnt mind if a few ppl came in off the street (ones who'd usually be going to the lan center anyway) but ofc they have to pay too.

What needs to be brought: Money, Authenticator - If you have one, money, yourself, spare change of clothes or two if you wish. Thats all I can really think of.

Thats fine, you'd need to get the metro from the airport to central station and if you want someone could meet you at central station.

As far as accom goes, I've just left it up to people to decide on their own, or they can try and see if they can book at the Hostel we've listed. I may give them a call to see how many rooms they have free.

Don't know if I can make it on Friday anymore since that's when I get my car back (neighbour crashed into it), fingers crossed they deliver it in the morning/finish it at all. Saturday and Sunday is definite, even if I have to take the bus in, I hate Newcastle traffic on the weekends.

Well as far as friday goes, Im going to go check the place out and talk to the owners to get stuff sorted for the weekend, but feel free to stop by the place. Will only be there for maybe an hour or two tho.

I cant go

I m so sorry but my boss wont let me go early on friday so i d have to catch a plane on saturday morning with return on sunday round noon. That s 120euros roundtrip (flights plus ariport connections) for just one day of LAN. As much as i d like to come this i s too much for one day (of which i ll miss the morning)

sorry again

I hope there ll be another one soon when i m done with work

Am in England and it seems SC2 has had no impact to anyone whatsoever and I don't think there is a decent known SC2 player from the GB which is sad

Pm me to add on SC2 as it would be great to play matches with other english folk

Have a good time lads

Very true. Im sure MPUK i40 should be good but be nice to see more of a UK SC2 scene.

Good to see another UK event. Hope it goes well.

I am thinking of organizing a starcraft event (possibly regular) in the south of UK, I wondered what intrest there would be. Pm me if you are intrested please as I dont mean to hijack the thread.

Thanks

There are a couple; DeMusliM and Apollo both have invites to HDH2 and if memory serves me rightly Apollo is busy in Korea learning to be a gosu.

The top 5 or so for UK, (in no order after DeMu) as far as I know are DeMusliM, rANDY, Meepy, Ourk and Scyk (gone inactive apparantly, but this is based on what rANDY said). I know there are plenty other good players too.

No disrespect to Apollo, but he's not performed well in SC2 so far and isn't as good as these 5.

Yeah, I'm interested to see how Apollo does in HDH2 considering that when he left for Korea he was just a little better than me; and I was no spring chicken. But dignitas evidently have faith in him and knowing him from my CnC3 days I know he'll certainly be working hard at it.
