Alright well let's get this going then. Would everyone here be cool with a mid-December lan? Possibly at this Ignite place?

Does anyone have any "connections" in the discussed LAN centers? If not, I'm willing to place a couple phone calls to gauge interest on their part. Anyone else willing to help me out with this? I don't have much experience organizing this type of stuff.

Ask a reaper nicely to leave your base, you will be surprised how respectful they are

Yes, there are LOTS of high diamonds that are going to play for a prizepool. We lack someone organizing right now. What prizepool are you talking about?

That's why I was suggesting we start small, non-prizepool, BYOC and meet at a school to play some fun games including 4v4s, 3v3s. Even though there are lots of high diamonds that will compete for money, there are EVEN MORE low diamonds, platinums, etc. that want to have fun at a LAN party without a prizepool. I am very close to making my own thread with this idea in mind and leave this one alone.

What school? Can we organize this (paid or non-paid, most likely BYOC) at your school? Perhaps as part of a computer/videogames club or standalone? Since you have so many people playing SC2 at your school, you can talk to the administration to get permission, establish some rules (i.e. follow all school regulations, no alcohol etc) and reserve a room with enough internet connections where you could BYOC? It does not necessarily need to be a computer room; I wouldn't want to install SC2 on school computers.

I would definatly want to join if a prize pool was put together. I wouldnt really want to do a 3v3 or 4v4 lan party.... I need something more competive than that. Il be checking this thread out to see if any progress has happened. I also know a dozen other possibly people that would be interrsted in a 1v1 tournament in the chicago land area.

I contacted Ignite. I don't have time to organize this, unfortunately. They are definitely the place to go right now. Here is their response:

Hello George,

Thanks for your communities interest in ignite network! By the sounds of it, and perusing the forum link you sent me, you want to set up your own tournament that is simply hosted in our venue. That being said, this is something we might be interested in. Here is a rundown of our facility and how renting our space for a tournament would work:

Half of our facility has 32 PC’s that all run Starcraft 2, the other half has console gaming which leaves no room for a BYOC section. We have a free parking lot that can house up to 30 vehicles, as well as street parking that is also free. For a half facility rental Monday through Thursday for 20+ guests for a total of 10 hours you are looking at an estimated $600. Friday through Sunday would be an estimated $1000. This will give you access to all 32 PC’s including tech support from our staff. If you take a look at our facebook photo albums under “DotA Fire and Ice” You can get an idea of how a previous event looked and felt.

If this is not what you had in mind or I didn’t answer your questions sufficiently let me know! Look forward to hearing back from you!

You are awesome. Let's do this. Time to make a new thread and gauge attendance amount? I can help as much as you want me to ggofthejungle. If you want to PM me to discuss organizing this, let me know. I have no experience with setting stuff up, but I've got the time

I'm down to help with whatever you need also. I can do grunt work or whatnot, but I definitely would like to come.

Why don't you guys that are willing to do gruntwork / organized before / willing to throw down a prizepool, know many people that can participate/help - team up together and do this? I'm looking at
