So csl = collegiate starcraft league.
this is where universities play starcraft matches against each other.
see cstarleague.com for more info.
since orientation is already starting here at carnegie mellon university, i guess ill start the recruitment for this year here.
if you attend cmu and are interested in playing some scbw, sc2, or participating in the collegiate starcraft league, email cmustarcraft (at) (the email service google owns lol) (dot) com with some relevant stuff such as your andrew email, game, race, rank, etc.
if you attend another university, i guess look around for relevant contacts =p
the csl this fall semester will be in sc2.
update, so i'll explain a bit of how csl works here at cmu
so usually we basically register up basically everyone for the csl.
however, each week we can use at most like 5 people so we will rotate between the decent players.
we also casually game with each other for fun, sometimes have events where we steal a room on campus and watch korean pro games on projectors, etc.
we're not actually an official club yet, but we do officially represent cmu for the csl.
most likely we'll have an ice breaker event so all us sc nerds can get to know each other in the beginning of the year.
more updates
We will have a meet up in Wean 5328 this Saturday, September 4th, from 2 pm to whenever we get bored. Also, we will be playing(hopefully) both BW and SC2(My laptop probably can't handle SC2....)! --snipinpanda

Exactly what I was looking for  Was wondering when I could start getting information on this stuff. CMU fighting!!
|
ah I'm going to Duquesne so I'll be hoping they have a starcraft group there. Guess you guys aren't too far away tho.
|
|
|
SUNY Geneseo will pwn your schools.
Maybe. It HAS to be good at something and maybe that thing is Starcraft.
|
which CMU is this?
Central Michigan University
or
Carnegie Mellon University
|
Topic is misleading. Was hoping for Central Michigan University. atomguy do you go to central?
|
Yeah, if your interested in teaming send me a PM.
|
man, who actually thinks of central michigan when they hear cmu =p
|
Are there any Canadian (Lower Mainland specifically) Universities participating?
|
if you check the cstarleague.com site, you can see there are lots of canadian schools in it.
|
I remember going there once and seeing a bunch of schools but now I only see one registered team (Princeton). I know there used to be a team for UCI and I've seen some people here with UCI in their sig so wondering if anyone wants to have a team for there.
|
|
|
Wow I fail. I clicked on league on top cause that was where they were listed. I guess it's because only Princeton has a confirmed team?
|
Anyone at Oberlin college, we have a CSL team. PM me. (Chances are, you're already on the team if you are on this forum... but if not... join!)
|
I met a fellow USC student (I'm an incoming freshman) at Day9's launch party and found out they had an eSports team, which is on the CSL list. I'll definitely check it out :D
How good are most of the players in the league, ICCup-wise (A-D)?
|
May be looking to start up a team at (ECU) East Carolina University. Didn't see anything on the site about how to get something started up within the site.. mind pm'ing me about it?
|
No UofT CSL team?

Based on my experiences I'd say average last season was around D+, although I'm sure it differs by division.

Princeton's only there for testing purposes. All things related to registration will open August 25 . See that newspost for schools, or this thread for TL threads. UCI (blabber) is there ^^

Anyone in the Michigan area. For example. Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin. I got all excited when I read this too. I don't go to Central Michigan but I'd love to see a team there.

Play even if you're terrible. Everyone in the CSL shares only one thing, and it's not skill level - we all love Starcraft (whether we love Broodwar/SC2 is debatable)
|
YEAH CMU!
Hopefully I can still have time for SC2...
|
Fire up chips!
Errr...
wrong thread?
|
lol we need to make a central thread.

Hell no. It's Princeton's new ploy for becoming #1 in the CSL. By being the only team registered.

Yeah I first read it as Central Michigan University. hahah I went there for a year before changing majors and moving back home to save money. Id love to see something like this in the area though. Seems like alot of the community events are far far away from our barren state

so i came in here hoping to see a bunch of new faces going to CMU.
1/3 of the posts are randoms rooting for different schools
1/3 are posts asking where they can find information about _____ school's CSL team

CMU is going to have a baller CSL team this year. 4 diamond players in my block housing group and my roommate (iccup c- zerg) is gonna be switching to sc2 and will be diamond as well. See you in a week.

Yeah this is me. I just got C- for the first time this summer (go ahead and laugh at my shitty record http://www.iccup.com/starcraft/gamingprofile/[GG]haxorz.html). And I've only been playing BW for a little over a year now, so I didn't think I was good enough to play CSL last year. I will be starting to play SC2 once school starts up next week. CMU fighting!~
|
If you want to play me, I usually idle in either channel cmu or op irc (occasionally bubblehead) on iccup. Message me if you want to game(I might be afk though, so getting back will be late)
snipin_panda@iccup
Even if you didn't think you were good enough for CSL you should have at least came to our events!
|
|
|
well i ( and maybe the rest of us ) will probably get in touch when we get to cmu this weekend.
are you guys having a meeting soon? i'd love to know some cmu people who are good so we can start practicing together and stuff
|
yea if some other cmu kids want to practice some sc2, add me (palanq.467)

Gonna take more than Diamond players to win CSL. Need Top 200 Aces.
But anything can happen, afterall Jaeyun took down Nony in the CSL Finals Ace match last season.
|
will you take Pitt students? there isn't a chapter here. if you don't, i'll create one and give you a rival.
...actually I should...get back to you later. it would probably be good for the area. i was C- but haven't played sc1 since sc2 beta phased me out
|
na, im sure the rules are no mercenaries so only students from their respective schools may represent their schools.
so yea, you should create upitt's csl team and we can spare =D

Yeah you guys should make a team, then we can be placed in the same division and have a match and we can meet up and stuff. Of course, we all know who has more nerds =P

Better to just have a joint team. I don't think we'll get many members on Pitt's side.

Doesn't have to be an official club. CSL would never pass bureaucracy at my school (and I'm even a part of it).
|
yea we're not an official club here at cmu either. we just steal rooms and projectors and hope campus popo dont bother us.

There's a video game club, it probably wouldn't be too hard if you throw in some nonsense about celebrating contemporary south korean culture.

I sent an e-mail. Hope it's not too late!
(I'm a freshie in CIT xd)

go cmuu! i'm going through records of season 1 and i have to say, cmu has consistently been one of the largest and most active teams (if not the largest and most active xD)

We have like 4 people trying to figure that out earlier, but I think we've got it figured it?
Unless we change our minds sometime soon (Like we tend to do)

Yeah we've been pretty active, but we still don't have any really really good players >>;;
But new game so we'll see!
Also, to anybody from CMU reading this thread:
We will have a meet up in Wean 5328 this Saturday, September 4th, from 2 pm to whenever we get bored. Also, we will be playing(hopefully) both BW and SC2(My laptop probably can't handle SC2....)!
We'll send out an email as soon as we get our stupid mailing lists figured out -_-"
|
|
|
|
|
CMU? I thought it was Central Methodist University
|
So we got a mailing list. If you're not on it(as in, you didn't receive a notification or this really long obnoxious email) Please subscribe to it, or email the cmustarcraft email account to be added to it.
Thanks!
