I met him. He's a nice guy. I'll see if I can convince him.
|
i and a friend live in NC about 2 hrs above atl. We've went to a sc2 in roswell before. its not too far from there im sure we could come.
how do we sign up?
you might try and see if you can get mrbitter to come
|
Any idea of when this'll be?
Also, I think masterasia is in china atm.
|
Sign me up.
I stay pretty busy with stream stuff, but I'll help out in any way I can.
|
Sounds pretty interesting. It's about 40 mins away but I may be on a road trip depending on when this takes place. Will stay tuned for more details!
|
I'll be there. Whats the date?
|
I'll most likely show up
|
Jan 22 12 to 12 or later is the time/date I got approved so far =)
|
shit... I'll be rather busy that day. Any way to make it the 23? :D
|
ill ask the guy about sunday
|
sorry guys about no last update last night felt really sick and went to bed around 7:00 so i am about to get back to work on it. Shouldnt take me too much longer and i am moving date to 29 thanks to poll =)
|
I am totally down for this, and the 29th is a perfect day. Thanks for putting the effort into setting this up.
|
So I live about 10 minutes from this place apparently according to map-quest. Would be pretty easy to just come home from UGA and go to this on the weekend 
Might not have access to a car though. I'll try and see if I can go, but might need a ride. (Could do something like pay $10 in exchange for a ride if I can't get car, for a ride there and back).
How many people are currently signed up? I might be able to attend!
|
Alou ill let you know if more people are coming from UGA. I am sure there will be so you could car pool with them ill pm you about it if i find out.
|
I know this is a silly question it being a lan and all,but would there be any chance of there being an extra computer to use? I will be around Gwinnett at the time of the event,but i won't have my computer with me. I have a spare mouse and keyboard i could bring,but the computer kinda has to stay where it's at at the moment. I'm a pretty low level player but would love to come and play and meet the community. Also you say 32 people max. Is that players or people in general. I would most likely have my girlfriend with me and i would hate to have to leave her in the car
|
I have concerns similar to the post above. Would love to attend but have quelms about moving my full setup for a half-day event. Wouldnt mind schooling some peeps at MTG in between rounds though.
|
If you a computer you can bring please do, and if you have an extra PC that can run Starcraft please let me know. Some people can come, but can not bring there PC, and if starcraft 2 Runs on your laptop please bring that also. So when you email me to sign up tell me how many computers or screens or keyboards or mice you can bring so I can start making the list and so I can see what we still need.
This one is only a $5 fee because it is the first. After this the next one will go up to $15 and 64 people hopefuly. I am not making money. All extra money not in prize pool will be used to buy: Screens, Computers, Mice, Keyboards, and Laptops. Any thing that can run the game on 1 v 1 low with out lag.
Also if you can donate any of those things please do. By then end of this year my goal is to have 32 systems. But for now I really need you help to make this all happen.
Also I build Computers So if you just have parts around that you could donate please do anything ddr2 or ddr3 motherboards or ram. Pata or Sata hard drives any size. 250w power supplies and up. Any DVD drives. and any dual core cpus, and any Gpus. I just need to build to run low settings.
I will not sell anything donated, I will only make computers for lan parties, and I will also use them to help other local Esports events. Any thing donated that I can not use will be given to charity.
Also 32 people can enter please dont bring more than one person who is not signed up. as room will be an issue. Someone asked about if they could bring there girl friend I have no problem with that=)

Hey wolf are you gonna drive there? A local event sounds pretty fun.
|
Ah the beauty of playing on a laptop lol.

|
I am bringing 3 maybe 4 system that can run 1v1s X) so I will be lugging soo much around X)
|
I'm in Atlanta, but I'll see if I can fit this into my schedule.
|
I think I can make it to this. I'd really like to go. Thanks for organizing this!
|
This is coming alone nicely =) This should be great !!
|
I'm really excited man. Not going to lie this is my first real lan,well you know outside of someones basement. What exactly are you looking for in the facebook/myspace or whatever? I would like to help in anyway,make this go as smoothly as possible for you so maybe it becomes a regular thing.
|
Hey David Just use the information on this thread to make this event a myspace page, I have a facebook one made but it is very empty and needs to be added to it. Email me again if you still want to do it, and ill give you more details there.
|
I cant find record of anything like this... So this looks like the largest Starcraft or Starcraft2 event ever anywhere close to Atlanta .... I hope I am wrong and Starcraft is more alive here than that!!
|
Starcraft is big at GATech, but SC2 wise LANs aren't really... existant lol
|
We are at a stand still of people of 10 please ask around and get your friends, We need to hit the local colleges also. I need help spreading the word so this happends =)
|
Any updates on this? Broke the 10 people mark yet? I hope you decide to go ahead even if its not a full 32.
|
I might be attending with a few other people, so I'd love to know how many spaces are still open as well!
|
There are open slots lots People keep saying on here they want to come but i am not getting the emails v.v
So please if you want to come email me. once this thing gets filled up I will post that on the first post. If you post you want to come on here you are not signed up you have to fill out the sign up list and email me.
But right now there are about 20 open slots. So I could really use some help filling them =)
|
Hey, I just saw this page today. I should be able to attend. I'll send you my info tommorrow when im on my main pc. My brother will probably come too, so thats two more people for this.
|
If this is really just a comic book store, how do we know that the internet connection will be able to support 16 people, let alone 32?
I'm thinking about showing up as well since some others I know irl are going, but I'm kinda hesitant about how well this tournament is gonna go in a comic book store that seems to not have ever run a pc lan tournament before. They have no website but took a look at their facebook page and online reviews.
|
Sign me up. I will bring what I can to help out and I will enter in the competition! There are not enough Starcraft tournaments in Georgia. Anyways I will see you guys there!
|
I have class on that Saturday (snow day make up for UGA is retarded) i was planning on trying to sign up for a spot, but won't be able to make it. Enjoy the fun guys

Starcraft2 takes very little mb/s any dsl can do 32 people and much more. I am running it not the store. The only problem was power and people signing up. I got the power part under control now. I also have 16 people signed up.
Also because I had to do the 16 any one who wants to come and hang out feel free =)
|
im not able to make it to this one but do another one and ill be there. im sick right now theres a gaming lan place in roswell also if you need a bigger place im sure they'll want monies tho.
|
I sent OP an email a couple days ago, pretty sure i can make it. Didn't hear back from you though, did I make it in the 16?
|
Yes Ben you are in I am running over everything and looks like there are 2 slots left. There might be 3 so I really need 3 more people fast so we have the full 16
every one is going to be connected to a 24-port/100 Mbps Switch then to battle net.
So if you have any friends who want to sign up please let me know soon.
I will also be calling every one tomorrow, and making sure they can come still.
There will me a huge update around 6:00 tomorrow night.
|
I will be coming, emailed you my info. Vicious.770
Thanks.
|
The 16 players slot are filled but there is room and places for 23 players. So you can still come and play customs and have a good time with us as long as you sign up before friday!
