I just spent the last hour looking at the different clubs and groups here at Concordia University, it's my first semester and I honestly expected a video-gaming club or something [I mean... there's a freakin' dodgeball club in this university!]. My sister was the president or something for ECA a year or so back and they had a few video-gaming parties and I think one LAN night within the school that consisted of Brood War and Quake.
This was awhile back, so I'm a bit fuzzy on the details since I wasn't attending university at the time and honestly just tagged along.
Now that I am in university, I look around and I see nothing remotely close to video-gaming or specifically: Starcraft here at Concordia, is there any reason?
I was told that McGill was the place for Starcraft players/university students, I hope not however since they didn't accept me (Manchester in England did however...)
Anyways... uh... the point of this topic is: 1. to see if I'm not alone here in Montreal and 2. to hope that there is a group of students who host LAN Parties at Concordia or something.
Not sure. It's late, etc. etc.
Cheers,
Torte de Lini

Hey I go to Concordia University. Sucks we don't have a club for gaming or anything, this university lacks a ton of stuff but that's a whole another story xD. You can add me on bnet, my username is Legendan and char code is 896.

Was?

I'm at UQAM, haven't seen anyone play yet

We have all these universities here and yet it feels like Montreal is so closed-out of all Starcraft related things.

I was surprised at the lack of gaming culture at concordia as well. I wear my Hwaseung Oz jacket on occasion but haven't gotten the starcraft reaction of "PLAGGGUUUUAAA" yet. We should organize some kind of meeting and meet up.

Definitely. I live right by the Bell Centre and shit, but my condo is too small for any sort of SC2 meet-up. There's a Battle.net24 at Maisonneuve though, really close to Concordia.
I even considered of joining the Concordia Chess Club just to see if there are any sc2 fanatics.
P.S: Political Science is dull ):

Go to the Chess Club next weekend. I'll be there, and we can talk about Starcraft (2). I haven't seen either of you guys with the jackets, though. Who knows. I must be blind.
Does anyone know if the Con*cept mini-convention is going to have any LAN events? They advertised LAN as being part of their sci-fi thingamabob between October 1st and 3rd, but I checked out their website and didn't see anything LAN-related on their schedule. -_-
If there's enough interest, I can try to organize a Starcraft (2) LAN, or at least some sort of get-together. All Montrealers would be invited - even the McGill kids who think that they're oh-so-superior to anyone who goes to Concordia. ;P If you think it'd be pretty cool, just bump this thread. I'll update with details.

Hey guys! New here to posting on the TL forums, but I saw this thread and it caught my attention. I live in Ottawa, about 2 hours away from Montreal, and there's a LAN here in November 6th/7th called Battle Royale that is hosting a SC2 tournament. I help with the organization of the event. Also you should look at ETS (Ecole du Technologie Superieure), it's in Montreal right by the Bell Centre as well. They host huge LANs and I'm sure people there are big fans of SC2 and gaming in general.
You also you should look into starting up a CSL team. I know Carleton University and uOttawa both have teams.

Ah that's crazy I go to ETS and i'm in the student residences, also extremely close to the bell center. We just made a CSL sc2 team, I know McGill has one too.

Battle Royale is open to anyone who wants to pay the entry fee. I help out with the gaming/tournament aspects at it, SC2 is probably going to be played a lot there. It's only $25 dollars for entry into both the venue and the tournaments (it's mostly a for-fun tournament style). Here's the link to the website if you want to check it out further.
