My SEA account is Batman 540. I have about 5 SC2 buddies that go to UQ who might also be interested in this.
I'll keep the thread updated with the names of players who have shown interest and the uni they attend so we have an idea of the progress of the society. Please ask your friends to post their interest here in this thread or similar thread in gosugamers.com or add me on Facebook (you can find me on the USYD & UNSW StarSoc facebook group as a member - my name is Pedro Alves)
Oh yeah Suc I decided to stay in MATH1050 cause today my workload tripled haha so I don't think I can catch up and work on this StarSoc at the same time.

I'll look for Joe at UQ (does he have facebook or TL.net account so its easier to find him?). You don't have to play SC2 or even have a copy of the game, as long as you are interested in watching matches and expanding the SC2 scene.
Haha yeah it sounds like math1050 is the right choice for you. To add to what you said about not even needing a copy of sc2, if we could get access to some room to watch gsl semi-finals or grand finals that could be pretty awesome (+ TSL depending on broadcast times, because that would be so sick).
I think its possible to hire lecture theater after hours, there is the theater in Hawken Engineering Building which can accommodate 600 students and the Entertainment Center can be hired also. As soon the StarSoc is approved by UQ I'll get some information on the hiring of theaters as we might need to book it a few weeks in advance

I am not going to play SCII yet, (or else I might fail Uni from practicing too much).
But yea, awesome stuff bro, I'm at UQ doing Med in my second year. Hope to see you guys lan it up at UQ, gotta break the firewall though

Hiring theatres is probably going to be a bit too much I think, probably better off just hiring a small teaching room with a projector imo

Haha I share your worry but Im timetabling my week so to not let this negatively affect my studies. Would you still like to be put down as players who have shown interest? Its not required to attend all meetings and we will try to be as flexible as possible as we are all studying as well

Maybe societies might get a special discount or for free if they are feeling generous? Im initially just gonna concentrate on starting StarSoc but its good to start throwing some ideas around.

I might check if its possible to get some exceptions for our computers during certain times when we have LAN. We will work it out haha hopefully

You can still join the UQ StarSoc as we only need 70% of our members to be from UQ, if you think there are enough players in Griffith you can start your own StarSoc and we will support you. Officially it will be called UQ StarSoc but it might end up hosting any Queensland unis who wouldn't have enough members to host their own societies

Yeh haha I already talked with the StarSocs located in Sydney (UTS, UNSW and USYD) and we might organize some inter uni tourneys. Tournaments with the local universities sounds good too!

(: Thanks! Hopefully we get 30 people by the end of next week. Please pass the word so this can become possible! I know of at least 10+ friends who go to UQ and play sc2 for fun. I'll see if I can get them to sign up to tl.net for yah. (:
We should set up a mini-stall next to the fruit-selling lady in the courtyard. :3

If all of them join we would only need 5 more players and this can go ahead :D. I was thinking of setting up a stall and sell something so we can raise money so we can go to Sydney sometime during holidays or when we decide its best to participate in a tournament/get together with the other StarSocs.

I'm too busy to actually attend anything or participate (except perhaps meetups to watch starleague finals live or something), but if you need my name on the expression of interest form I'll sign it. I'm Shuffle's brother btw, so he'll keep me updated.

Thanks for showing interest! Ill add you to the list. Its not required to attend everything as we understand how uni life becomes hectic quickly. Could you ask him if I could add his name to the list also? Thanks

Also, if you need any help to set this up, send me a PM here.
Willing to help in anyway to get this off the ground
