You will not want to miss this amazing event in the DC area sc2 scene sponsored by cyberground lan center and generous TL community members.

Stats and information as well as links to previous lan posts is always recorded and saved on TL here.
The purpose of these lan tournaments is for quality sc2 competition as well as building and maintaining a solid sc2 community in the area. Interviews, pictures and videos WILL be taken and posted on TL and I will provide all content to anyone for their own sites or teams site. As well as any interested sponsors. Now on to the details:

EDIT: By the way if you're wondering why this is so far out, there is a major collegiate SC2 event happening in Maryland on Feb 12th and a Hypercrew LAN at Cyberground on Feb 26th. Plus TL opens and other events are running straight through Feb so many weekends in Feb are booked for me and lan locations.

I would like to try my hand at a lan. Also I have a friend who works for City Paper who has made noises about wanting to attend a lan event to write a story about it. So I would like to tentatively sign up!

HOOKTITS BIRTHDAY LAN!!!!
Sign me up, mr Rob.
not like I have much choice anyways...

torenhire I confirm you for these before I confirm myself... lolz. 
I confirmed Ryan too, he's not allowed to miss this for anything.

CONFIRM ME YO. I gotta get a better camera for interviews n shits! And there weren't enough cool spots to make a highlight video at the last LAN. So you kids better make amazing games this time!

I admit I'm a little disappointed you didn't call it the Hooktits Birthday LAN. Make sure you put up a donor list somewhere so people can thank all the awesome doods who are putting in cash to make the prize pool epic.
Also everyone in the DC Metro area needs to get on the ball here and invite everyone you know. CaucasianAsian style. Smashing noobs on ladder? Tell them to come to our LAN. Even if you're playing on your Korean / EU account.
"COME TO OUR LAN IN WASHINGTON DC" "Dude I live in Germany" "So what get on a plane see you there gg"
|
I'll be there... of course
|
An admin should change the title to (+1000) in prizes now :D
|
SICK LAN!!! Damn yo! Gonna be so epic ahaha. Sweet prize pool!

I really wish there was a good way to cast from the lan center. That way you could cast our games and stream on ragequit.tv... how epic would that be T____T
If we bring noise canceling headphones or do SOMETHING...there has to be a way.

I'll get back to u on this!

sick.
if anyone needs a ride from an area PM me and I can hook up rides I know people who are probably coming from areas like va beach/NJ who have told me they would be willing to drive people.
this is still so far away this thread is more for notifying people to keep the date in mind.
official registration will open in 2 weeks or so.
|
LOL @Avilo picture. I laugh everytime I see it. In fact I might just print it out and show my support to Avilo next tournament. I'll be there and I guess I'll help out with brackets and etc. again
|
.599 I shall attend and rob shall feel my wrath ^^
Iv already put aside 20$ ! So no last minute poor problems from me
As to the catser you should have the caster be someone who is not actually at the lan, and just stream from the lan and they can cast from home. You could prolly get catspajamas to do it or someone.
|
yay slimpower 
don't worry about having to knock me out of the tournament. some allin toss (or avilo temple) will take care of that.

Why not have a cast at the LAN too? Without any speakers and a small crowd it shouldn't be too much of an issue and is better than having 100 people shoulder surf during games. Additionally doing it live can create between game live interviews for entertainment and the closing awards ceremony will be streamed.
Oh lets not forget to mention embarrassing acts will be recorded/shown live; so we don't have to wait a month for someone to encode/upload a video from webcam Last but not least depending how it goes; the next LAN could easily have player camera's too, the production value is just much better when you are at the event.
That all being said there will probably be an external stream too.

As always, would love to cast it if you guys will let me.
|
Alex, I told you that you weren't the oldest, Ryan wins!
And definately, Cats. I'll make the executive decision and Luckyfool can't change my mind!
|
we would gladly welcome CatsPajamas to do casting for us again.
|
I'll be there to just chill, update the bracket, and watch some games and hang out. Won't be playign as usual, and this time i won't be passed out asleep like two LAN's ago.
Tell the owner of that lan center to hook up SSF4 ;o I wanna play that.
|
No, we need that TV area to whispercast on once Ipp gets elimi--
I mean once he wins the tournament.

We should have a birthday BO5: Luckyfool vs Hooktits, all random v random matches for birthday money or something.

^_^ This tournament is getting hyped. Someone should edit this picture to keep it up-to-date
|
YES that picture is back!! HAHA
Who even made that damn thing?

Woo I recognize your name, you've finished in the top 4 one of the previous tournaments.
As a reminder to everyone this thread is just an unofficial signup spot for me to start adding names to the list. Official registration will open on Saturday and I will provide an email link in the OP.

^ He finished fourth at Cyberground #2. Lost 1-2 to CheeseGrater in third place match.
Edit: I meant fourth. I'm tired, leave me alone.
|
Yea that was it, he was the dude that came out of nowhere that day. Non terrans who place in the top 4 are basically rockstars around here.
|
I want to join this tourny, i live in VA. But i'm not good at all, still in bronze league.
|
How many play Terran here? I want to race switch to Terran too, get on the bandwagon of the OP race.
If you can't beat them, join them.
|
Almost all the best players in the area play Terran. There are maybe 3-4 strong protoss/zergs but like 7-8 Terrans on that level or higher.
|
wow that a lot of terran player in the area.

To be honest, as a Bronze leaguer I feel I'm too good to participate in this tournament.

Ryan if you change your ID, our friendship is officially over.
Yeah, I just went there.
|
I will see if i should go, because i look stupid bc i'm just in silver league. I watch a lot of replay n know the game well but i just suck. no point to compete

In fighting games, the term is called "pot monsters"
Every tournament needs them, you play for the experience and for the fun and to meet people and make new practice partners etc.
Just a suggestion if you're wishy washy iruehl

Rob and the rest of us have been LAN-ing it up for quite a while now...
and I can't think of one instance where anyone who was gold/silver/plat (or more accurately D,D+,C-) got made fun of for being whatever rank. Just come along, have fun, watch some pros tear shit up live, nothing to be worried about. We're a (mostly!) nice bunch.
Actually I got made fun of a lot for being D- but it was in good fun
|
So who will be my practice partner so i can be prepare for the tourney? lol. I will go and check it out.
|
Ah crap; I want to come to this but I will be in Sebring, FL that weekend. /booooooooo

to clarify the map pool here, a couple GSL maps will be included as well as the most balanced known ladder maps (xel naga, metal) I will post up official rules packet TOMORROW and also send out huge batches of reminders considering we have just THREE weeks to go now.

Janitor and I are definitely coming! can't wait.. huge prize
|

Will be attending with friends, (one of which is good, fitz, some may know him) got into ro8 last time but idk if i will do well this time. I havnt played much (read: at all) since marvel vs capcom 3 came out and a few weeks before that. Ive attended each one so far, gl every1.
|
just an update,
ipp will be casting live from location with his desktop+video of the lan so not only is it going to be totally epic and awesome to watch but it's gonna be even more epic to be there, so everyone better come! 
we will have livestreamed video interviews of players and games yo doesn't get more epic than that.

I may come. I may play (if there's space).

I'll let you know as it gets closer. Work may not agree with me.

Dude you're like over 9000 feet tall, just sit down, play in tournament, and be like
brb phone is ringing

Looking forward to this tourney :-) Hoping to get make a good rep for Hyper Crew Good luck to all the players! <3
|
I can see pictures from the first Cyberground were added. This one is looking really great ^_^.
|
May or may not be able to go now, might have to work and can't get out of it since its spring break, I'll let you know though
|
you should have requested the day off like 2 months ago when I posted this noob! 
We've had over 40 people express interest in playing now. If you don't see your name on the list or you have just a name there and no character code please send a registration email in!
|
I didn't suspect that this would be on the week of spring break 2 months ago. I don't normally work Saturdays but since some people go home we change the schedule for spring break, and since I'm already missing Friday-Monday because of PAX I can't really talk my way out of Saturday assuming that my boss schedules me there. I'll do what I can though.

And I will be harassing Ipp to ensure that said stream is the worst possible! (provided he's the one streaming and not just whisper-casting for those present~). I'm sure if CA makes it he'll be more than willing to aid me in my endeavor ^^

I think ill check this out
edit: Heading in from the Glen burnie, MD area, if anyone wants to car pool

So I have a client that needs some stuff done...location? Well...not Northern Virginia. Don't know my dates of travel yet but I'm praying to every god that has ever existed (mostly to Thor though) that it does not interfere with this weekend.
Also, what size is the TV that Kim brings for the Whispercast? I've got a TV that is pretty easily portable. My Laptop can run SC2 and Ipp can cast off that instead of plastic bag keyboard.
PLASTICBAGKEYBOARD FIGHTING!!!!~~~

ipp's bringing his desktop and will be setting up a full casting dealieo in the back.
and man that would SUCKKKK if you have work related shit too toren... be like yo client we're hooking u up a day early!

Hey, Mr. Fool is there a cut-off date for sign-ups or just a Max player count?

I sent an email to the address but my name hasn't shown up on the list, so I just want to make sure I'm signed up! MotleyJu.861. Looking forward to it!

Not gonna have a cutoff really, on Sunday I'm going to set up initial groups but I'll keep taking signups till the day before.
|
I wanna make the groups this time.
Let me do it!
8 groups of x people on signup?
|
I think we can learn from the HyperCrew guys and have all the group matches and maybe maps set so the players get there, add their opponents and play. Goes much faster ^_^.
|
Yeah, the only problem with that though is that it gets a little difficult to accommodate walk-ins (we usually have tons) and no-shows.
Faster is good, but I'm more of the mindset "don't fix what ain't broke"
|
If it ain't broke you didn't morph enough banelings.
Maybe a walk-in / tentative group to help alleviate some randomness? Like you said though if things have worked out thus far it should be fine
|
Yes, I will be there and streaming... Hopefully I'm there early but as fate would have it, I think GSL Finals are the morning of the LAN again T.T
Also my snowball is on a boomstand. Pardon the mess, very old picture I had on my phone for some reason.
|
Ipp you need to take to some home renovators (I heard hooktits can help you out) about getting your house to be back on even keel, must be annoying having to bolt down everything so taht it doesn't slide off at 45 degrees.
|
looks like ur passing me in posts today zlasher, or tomorrow...
I'm glad so I can finally stop hearing about it...next up start bugging chris when u'll pass him rofl.
|
If I don't pass you today I won't pass you til mid next week since I'm not sure if I'll have internet while at PAX East lol. 
I'll bug Chris and Storr next <3
|
If you count the pm/post count of Chris's trolling-sprees you will never pass him!
Edit: oh and if you ever get close I will just point him in the direction of a "bw is dead" thread and his post count will skyrocket!

DUDE YES SPRING BREAK
might be coming. ke ke.

I'll be able to go to dinner since I'm off work at 6, Chris said he can pick me up. :o

Ipp is officially a better man than all of us, for living in a sideways house. Congrats.
And good news everyone, I don't have to leave until the 20th. And maybe for Dubai afterwards for some more fancy work.
Woot.
|
Lets get to 56 players!!! lol that would probably be too many tbh, would be two chalk full group stage waves LOL the lan center will be PACKED.
I know DC area can do it!!!
|
Even if you think you're going to suck, join anyway! I'm pretty bad and I got stomped the first time I played but it's still tons of fun :D
|
yeah! it's tons of fun to come play in an event like this in a lan setting at a great lan center with great people.
By playing in this you are supporting the local sc2 community and esports as a whole which is so awesome. plus you get to come out for a hella fun day and chill with a BUNCH of sc2/TL nerds and maybe even make friends/practice partners who will support you through whatever you are trying to achieve through sc2 be it moving out of silver league or getting top 200 in north america!
how's that for a motivational post!
|
I went to the first lan when I had played beta for like a month and was in silver league, then ended up playing BW which i had never played competitively and got roflstomped
shits fun guys, join up
|
you didn't get roflstomped you fucking qualified for wcg usa finals son!!!
going to my lans got zlasher from silver league sc2 newbie to bw gosu in under 2 months. thats whatsup. you can be like zlasher too if you just signed up for this lan!!!!
|
LOL, I was just talking with chris about that the other day, cuz he said he met someone who qualified back in 03 and i was like damn chris he's even more old school than you.
I'll be able to see whoever comes to dinner after the lan anyways, sorta like the lsat hypercrew lan, yay for chris's truck!
|
zlasher should just be an annual auto wcg qualifier

56 people? All I can say is I'm glad I will be nice, uncramped, and cozy in my casting area. Now if only we could setup like a 45 degree incline, it would be just like home
|
If Chris does end up driving me, I may or may not be bringing my macbook to play on ^_^.
(Shut up, haters.)
|
gonna be sending out reminders soon to the 60+ people who've either posted here contacted me or emailed.
1 WEEK AWAY!!!
|
Hahaha, who the hell is Firebatgyro? I laughed for like, 20 minutes when I got to your name on the list. Hahahaha, that name is epic, I hope you win this tournament.
Also, Rob, BM not bolding all the top 200 for me. I can't believe I have to work now. UGH.
Also I am so manly that my name is bolded in the rules packet. Aww yeah.
|
ipp may live on a 45 degree angle but strelok lives completely sideways :+ Show Spoiler +
also on a serious note cheesegrater recommended it and I think its a smart idea to just use MLG maps, they include the most balanced ladder maps (xel naga/metal + a couple other pretty nice even maps like crossfire and iccup testbug which is a really fun 3 player map. (sc2 needs more 3 player maps)
|
I'm Firebatgyro, I was laddering drunk one night and it just randomly came to me so I name changed immediately.
Pretty sure I'm not going to win since I'm only like 3k masters and my TvT is beyond terrible.

(sc2 needs more 3 player maps) I have been thinking about this as well and thought it perhaps would be a good idea. In a way we would not be changing much except for removing close spawn and building blockers, plus adding more maps. The only thing that has been bothering me to be honest are that these maps are big and most of the players going will most likely be Terran, so we could be in for some long Avilo style games. Either way, MLG maps sound great.
|
might want to make a decision? Tournament rules still have old map pool
|
whens the latest to register by?

On March 14 2011 17:00 KoDo wrote: whens the latest to register by?
Never, still open now. We allow walk-ins as well. Registering is preferred though!
Plus if you register you get a guaranteed spot and know what matchups to practice. 
Will be doing groups today at work (shh don't tell) and have them posted this afternoon.
Rob make a choice on maps. Also at Firebatgyro, practice TvT. We are like baby Russia over here. (BW Joke, like...every good player out of Russia was Terran. ) We always have like...RO16 with 2 zerg, a protoss or two, and the rest terran.
|
MLG maps it is. I'll update the rules.
I'm sending out mass reminders today too.
|
Does this mean I should only practice on mlg meta because no one will pick anything else for group stages?

I'll bring my laptop and play BW with u
|
Oh when I get knocked out in my first 3 games I'll play bw with you too, Chris!
You like stomping all over D- scrubs, right?
|
I'll be bringing my laptop and probably playing LoL.
Any other LoL nerds should troll ladder with me when they get knocked out of the tourney! Captain teemo, ON DUTY
|
as long as people are discussing laptop's i feel i should mention i'll be bringin mine too so save me a spot at the table! though i guess really i dont even technically need it as i generally dont get passed the group stage, ha!..maybe if i go in-base hatch : O *insert intimidating music here*
|
If I had time to sit down and play LoL I would! 
My first game ever, it would be fun. Some guys from my clan were playing and they convinced our leader/manager guy to play, he was playing as someone (no idea his name) but he was really drunk and the rest of the night he kept talking like the guy did.
Was some guy who insulted you every time you told him to do something. So he'd be like "UPDATE THE WEBSITE YOU SLACKER MOTHERFUCKER." Was hilarious. Good times.

Woot woot! this weekend! Looking forward to it!

i told my self i was gunna find some time to practice so i would at least make it outta group stages but the event is one week away and i still have probably only played like 3 games in the last 3 weeks and they were all in one day (-_-)
|
i decided to switch to toss today so ill be playing toss at lan ^^
|
Yay one more Toss at the LAN \o/
Rob was like F your groups you're taking too long.
So direct hate to him!
|
groups up, we need more signups! I know we can do better than this I want 6 man groups all around! 
We should advance 3 from each group regardless imo.
and mlg is the map pool but we'll make an avilo exception...avilo is only allowed to play on steppes of war... Even avilo tvt's on steppes take over an hour. lol jk
|
Personally I think we should remove testbug because its a relatively unknown map, BUT i will not complain because for once you included scrap station without having to have people yell at you. Hell, you even took out steppes! I'm so proud of you rob.
<3
Edit: Also I know that MLG Shakuras only has 2 spawn locations but what is the difference between like.. MLG Metal and regular Metal?

Ramp building blockers, and no close positions, I think. Not 100% sure on that.

Correct.
And testbug is being used in tournaments and it seems quite balanced and fun/normal so far, sc2 really needs more 3 player maps imo all the 3 player maps were my favorites in broodwar (tau cross medusa etc)

I see storrzerg is with avilo, and there's no masters protoss in my group. You have made my day, good sir.

TL events still go by KST I believe. noon on Saturday the 19th in Eastern Time is 1am Sunday the 20th in Korea.
wasn't TL changing this in the near future possibly? I thought I read something that it was changed but I guess it was just talking about changing it.

on the right hand side:
Sat 17:00 CET Sat 12:00 EDT Sat 09:00 PDT Sat 12:00 EDT
I set it for noon so ipp or whoever is casting can have time to set up the streaming.
|
I'm all caught up now sorry 'bout that, TL going by KST seems to elude my feeble brain every time i look at the calender. one of these day's ill learn. I will be there ready to have some fun at 11am (I'm in group A) can't wait! Big up to luckyfool and everyone else involved in making these events happen they are a lot of fun... and tippy's being right next door is just flat out imba

outsider had way too many weird abuseable quirks and weird funky things for me to ever really like playing on that map. It was pretty balanced in proleague I think though.

Heh, given my group and my lowered games played, I get the feeling that I won't go as far this time as the previous tournament. Give me another week to practice!

Where is the Korean BBQ place? near the korean PC bang in annandale?

Yea the dc/VA dinner thread should have the exact address but the place is Il mee on little river turnpike. I'm sure Google can figure it out from there

GSL Finals are also 2AM [edit] before the tournament. Don't know if I'd be going to any after-dinner GSL viewing since Chris is my ride and he hates anything that's not SC1 but I figured I'd mention it in case anyone thinks to host anything up.
Edit: Oh right, Geno. For whatever reason I thought it was after the tournament, not before. Oops. But, still, the idea lingers. I imagine I won't be coming until the Tournament though.
|
GSL viewing does sound pretty awesome. Pretty unfortunate that it takes place before the LAN again. But I'm not doing what I did last time. I was almost half dead after staying up so late and then having to go to the LAN that early.

yeah TL time is a day ahead... I don't care 2 days of birthday wishes is fine I won't complain! thx mike :D
and there will DEEEEEEFINITELY be dinner @ korean bbq after this lan.
|
Yay Thanks NetLogicDC!!
A badly needed sponsor. :D :D
|
so now we have a company a lan center and tl community members sponsoring this lan! woot!
BY THE WAY DON'T SHOW UP B4 10:30am the place wont be open!
|
Try to show up around 10:30 though. The closer to 11am we start the better!
|
yea especially with 60 ppl. gonna be a pretty full day of a packed lan center lolol.
|
We jumped to 60 people now?
|
probably not 60 players but we'll easily have 60+ ppl in the place during the usual peak hours (12-3pm)
there are quite a few spectators coming and hypercrew guys + others who aren't even on the player list but will be there.
52 players signed up so far.
|
Do I still have to bring my prize money now that we're all epic and sponsored up?

also I'm going to be tired as hell, I've got a long day tomorrow.
|
I was just kidding guys, god.
No need to stop posting in the thread! More hype for tomorrow! Do it now!
|
No time for hype everyone's practicing... NOT lol.
|
Practicing...should probably do that...or i could 6 pool every game
|
Group H only has 4 players Lucky group
|
Walkins will probably be placed in there though, so not the luckiest since you don't know whats coming
|
yeah some ppl dropped out and we'll just fill/shuffle people around tomorrow. we should have like 10+ alternates at this point lol.
|
i just noticed that the TL site is a day ahead but where are we eating BBQ at???
|
the usual place, il mee buffet in annandale. Talk to me tomorrow if your interested in going after the lan. the place is 10 minute drive from the lan center.

Ipp will be casting the entire event with Orb and Hypercrew folks as guest casters throughout the day so everyone who can't make it out make sure to tune into the cast after tsl3 broadcast is over!
|
Hey all, my transit plans got changed up so I'm going to catch a bus that'll get me there about 11:10-11:15. Sorry for the delay, hope that won't be a problem. Looking forward to it!

Can't wait!
|
to watch gsl and be tired tomorrow or to go sleep and be refreshed for the lan such a tuff decision
|
I just realized that the Metro is going to have maintenance tomorrow on the Orange line and at night Vienna, Dunn Loring nor West Fall Church will not do for me. :/ If East Fall Church is too far away for Rob, will have to see if someone can take to a further station.
|
Go LF!!
I also hope to see a letter from this one or something of some sort from this LAN~
p.s. + Show Spoiler +It's close to my birthday (21st) as well (march 30th) hint~

Happy Birthday to Luckyfool and congrats to him and avilo. Great games. Although, I don't think you should have changed race, Lucky.
Kudos to third and forth place winners - MaestrO and sLiMpoweR.
|
Once again, I had a great time at this lan, thanks for organizing all this, everyone that was involved!
|
went to check out the tourney, didn't see a lot of ppl there. The place smell like piss and smoke.
Well congrats to whoever win.
|
hey all, thanks for coming and playing! was great to meet some new peeps. maybe i'll come to another one in less than 6 months q_q
|
what a joke of a finals god I'm going to kill myself bye gg no re /wrists
but seriously thanks everyone for coming out, thanks torenhire for keeping things on track during the day, HUGE thanks to ipp for not only getting a sponsor for the event but also bringing everything to cast the casting setup was SOOO SICK ( I hope the stream was awesome, video of the lan center as well as casting tons of games was great, I saw the stream was near 700 viewers at some points, really good to see) <3 everyone.
next lan will happen when we can get a player who can beat avilo to come.

You do know we started at 11am and not 11pm, right?
Considering we had 30-40 people there almost the entire day...Hell, you sure you even went to the right place?
Thanks again everyone for coming, good times and grats to the winners.
Also dinner was epic. Mmmm bacon

Forgive me for my laziness this time around. Staying up for GSL did do a number on me and I wanted to try and do things HyperCrew style with the matches set up online, but that didn't work out too well with players not showing up and having to fill groups the last minute. Next time, we should just do it all on paper.
Once again, congratulations Avilo. You are just too good and deserve the crown of "King of DC LAN." However, enjoy it while you can, because everyone is coming for you the next LAN. Expect lots of proxies, all-ins and Protoss' . GG's and good luck at MLG.
Rob, again, thank you for the ride. I really appreciate it. Sorry about your loss to Avilo again. :/ I'm sorry it just did not work out for you. Hopefully things will go better next time. Good luck at MLG.
RageQuit.tv + HyperCrew, what can I really say. Awesome job with the casting.
sLiMpoweR, dude you are just fucking awesome and funny shit tonight at Il mee ^_^.
Overall great to see and hang out with you guys again and I look forward to the next LAN, whenever that may be.

Also a huge thanks to syz-adrenaline for helping sponsor the prize pool. Jeremy is such a baller always donating prize money to various community events in sc <3 you bliss huge thanks.
Jeremy and Ipp of Ragequit.tv really helped make this event quite amazing without those two we never would have had the kind of prize pool we ended up getting.

Thanks a lot to everyone that organized the event. Rob and Torenhire did a fantastic job, as always, making sure everything ran smoothly. So glad Ipp brought his equipment to cast the event, I had a blast helping out. I'm going to hunt down some of the vods of janitor and myself casting.
Nerd Dinner was amazing this time! It was awesome to get to know Ipp a little better and listen to Slimpower. Can't wait to do it again!
Grats to Avilo, again. The pain train is comin in the next lan.
