Yeah its so true about the social stigma.

Add me if you want to: Gigabeef.244, I do play 1v1 mostly but loads of my friends have recently got into SC because of SC2 and my preaching, so I've been playing some more team and custom games too for fun :D

somalipirate, I'm west midlands in shropshire, thats close enough!

We could get a list of people in the 1st post with UK players + char codes maybe?

There were some good people at the i40 LAN but I didn't actually go and meet anyone unfortunately.

Yeah, I've got quite a few friends that are into gaming here in London, but most of them are reluctant to switch over to PC gaming. And then you've got the challenge of getting them interested in SC2 (or RTS as a genre), and then the challenge of getting them interested in playing a little bit more competitively.

Those that are already PC gamers mostly play FPS or games like HoN/DotA/LoL.

It seems that's a bit of a common thing here, but just looking at some of the responses in this thread, it seems there's already quite a few of us here that at least care enough about it to discuss it here. I'll try to keep my eyes open for other UK players and add them so we can start to overcome the barriers created by BNet2.0 and get some sort of a community spirit going.

For those that are interested in stomping all over a low Diamond Random player, you can add me.

Pretty much everyone I know here plays consoles or WoW. A friend of mine has a friend who plays StarCraft and another friend of mine has played some C&C, the others seem to have no idea what a RTS is.

Oh, and I saw a dude with a StarCraft 2 t-shirt and a girl several weeks ago but I wasn't in the mood for chatting up a complete stranger. I guess I was startled by the combination of a nerdy t-shirt and a girl as well.

Haven't read through the entire thread as i am way too tired right now, but has anyone discussed like a TS or Vent server for Uk users? good way to get people together for some games, friendly tournys and all that jazz.

Better than just simply laddering

Let me know what you think of that idea!

Hey. I host lan partys for the University of Portsmouth Gaming Society, I am thinking of starting up a regular LAN for SC/SC2 (UPGS lans also have SC2 gamers) but first want to see how our internet handles with it. We have a LAN this weekend (start of term) so will see how it goes. We will be doing LAN's (weekend long) in Portsmouth about once a month. Pm me for more info.

Ive been going to the i-series on and off since i10, ive staffed a few etc, Used to play a lot of Quake 3 mainly at i-series. I hope SC2 will become big at the i-series. I will prob be going to i41

:o

Would love a USL (University Star League) to try to get some sort of a more established UK community. The Newcastle lan with Adrenal, Kovu, Houck and the rest was awesome, shame about the attendance figures.

Yea same, gonna insta sign up for that I would probably get further in tournaments if I actually played a decent amount of practice games though lol rather than the 1-3 per day I am currently putting in.

Ya, the problem is the consoles, I think we are more casual gamers and play a lot of non competitive fifa -_-, however I play my friends often on sc2, unfortunately they suck balls, I would probably be very very good by now but I have done badly in my AS's and am preparing for my A2's, so i can only play in the weekend and even then I am often busy, is it just me or does it feel like other countries have more time on their hands, anyhoosel, I was gonna do a lan for reach, but i cant be bothered because the people i would invite are flakes, and it would mean me spending more money. I didnt think sc2 had lan so how would that work?

Had me if your in the uk btw: Vega 483
