Why would you detract from a cool opportunity; who honestly cares what they call it?

Personally i feel they should bootcamp in Sydney, Australia before Anaheim but ey what can you do :p

I thought that it was Chicago, but California makes more since that's where MLG is.

Because the entire point of bootcamping is supposed to be hardcore training for a major lan tournament coming up? What's the point if it becomes a social outing? Mr Chae said it best when he said GSL is a competition but MLG is a festival/competition.

Taking some time to interact with fans isn't going to screw up their training. Quite frankly the interaction between players and fans in the West is a big reason the game is taking off while in Korea it isn't. I would hate to see it disappear.

This could be really good for the EG guys when they really need to preform at the next events to keep up the sponsor money. I feel like they have been slacking lately in the performance department a little and this could be the boost they need.

Friend and I are driving down 7 hours to play in this tourney, looking forward to *maybe* playing a pro or two and of course, lots of autographs and pics!

This disappoints me, I was expecting a weightlifting video at the very least from Incontrol and Machine. Or getting Idra the size of Machine, this is pretty cool too though.

Well, I wouldn't call it "bootcamping" if they attend a lan, participate in a tournament and having massive fan interaction. When I heard the title, I thought they would shut themselves in somewhere and train non-stop.

Wishing them good luck anyways, their players are one of the few hopes, the foreign scene has. :-/

I highly doubt that you can win an MLG with 1 week worth of intense training. That being said, good luck and use the time wisely.

Hahaha, Bootcamp...
Can just imagine you rock up and Idra is dressed as a drill instructor ordering you to do pushups and abusing you as you make micro mistakes in Starcraft 2 etc. Please let it be...
