Hi TL,
We are hosting a MLG Raleigh Barcraft in Charleston, SC. Anyone 18 or over are welcome. 
Where:
Mike's Home
4160 Perrine St., Charleston, SC Google Map
We have a HD projector, enough sofas and chairs for a small crowd.
When:
Friday, 8/26/11 5:00 PM - Games are done for the night.
Saturday, 8/27/11 11AM - Games are done for the night.
Sunday, 8/28/11 10AM - End of the event.
Why:
Just two guys try to spread SC2 as a sport. Mike was a bartender in college and has a small bar at his house and can mix some great drinks. So if you will be around the area for MLG Raleigh, drop by and watch a few games with us.
Cost:
Free.
What to bring:
- We encourage people to bring their favorite snacks and drinks, though it is not required. Bring some money if you are staying long, because we are probably going to pitch in to order pizza/food.
- Bring computers are fine, check with us first to see if we have space, because some other people are bringing computer to play a few games in between boardcast.
- If you have a ps3 arcade stick, bring it also. Mike got one and we could play some sf4 too.
Anyone has foldable table that are easy to bring let us know! We got an extra foldable table, no need to bring any now.

Cool, thanks man. Probably a good idea, I was going to remove Mike's address after the event. I just don't want his address to be on the internet forever, lol.

All i know about charlestown is that it robs banks and watches starcraft
|
Aww I'm up in G-vegas and can't really make that drive, nice to see some folks supporting ESPORTS in SC though, good luck!
|
I'm in Charleston this coming weekend, probably wont head up for MLG Raleigh, so as of now I was just planning on sitting at home...... put me down as probable.
|
What age do you have to be? 18 or 21 or doesn't matter? I might come if you can come if 18

We like to keep it 18 or over, because of possible legal issues... also, we won't give any one under 21 alcoholic drinks, there are non alcoholic drinks we can make.

I wish this was in Winnipeg.

50% friday. 80% saturday. sunday unlikely.
|
Just moved down to Charleston, starting at the college, I'm going to try and make it to this on Friday provided I don't leave on account of the hurricane. Put me down for 50% Friday. Might come out Sat.
|
Dash dont worry about the hurricane, it's not hitting us anyway. Also if you're new to town, hit me up at Mike's this weekend, i'm downtown for college as well.
|
hey man im sorta new to the competitive scene for SC2 but i live in west ashley soo i might stop by n see how its going.
|
Skream man it should be fun, i'm teaching a friend overseas about SC2 and the competitive scene and he even as a newbie about a lot of this is enjoying it.
Also Chess, two questions.
1. Will we be using teevox at all if they'res 2 games going on at once?
2. If no teevox, any player preferences? Being a big idra fan, I like to see as many of his matches as possible, but we all have our various favorite players.

We'll probably have teevox on secondary monitor to keep tab on things. We have a HD projector, it will run the Red or Blue stream depending the game. Because I don't believe teevox supports HD pass/MLG membership stream. But using which player to watch the stream won't be a problem, if there's a better way to watch the stream, by all means suggest, we can talk it out.
|
Makes sense, and yeah I dont think they corrected the 'double' HD stream with pass issue yet so teevox might not be the best way to go on the projector.
Everything sounds good though. You guys watch State of the Game at all? It's supposed to be on friday night right after the games live from MLG (so probably midnight or so) and there should be a pretty big announcement, so I wanted to watch that too.
|
I'll try to be there Friday for sure then back on Sunday depending on where I get with homework. I'll also bring a ps3 stick.

Yea probably, if I remembered correctly it will be 12:30AM-1:00AM. It's a really entertaining show, and they are doing it live this time. Last year they had a Pax Live SotG, but mostly Q&A. Not sure how the show will format this time.
|
Awesome, sounds good, hate to have to rush home just to get my weekly SotG fix.
Also i'll bring my laptop + mouse just incase there is some SC2 games going on, maybe some team games for funs or something. i'll try and hit the bank too, so we can order extra pizzas for some newbies who may want to join us.
(meaning if you guys are lurking in this thread, show up! it should be a good time)

|

Heya I will be there tonight to check it out for sure! I'm not sure if i will be able to come on sat and sunday as i have a bit of homework to do as well, but i would say a 50/50 chance.

Stream is up! Beer is cool! Weather is not that bad, come have fun.
|
Great showing so far, still got a few extra chairs!
|
Really glad to see some stuff going on in Charleston!

The casters will be giving shoutouts to people and bars live on the stream. Update: Please don't tweet this to djWheat- while I'm sure he appreciates the love, he's not attending this MLG so it's unlikely he'll be able to give you a shoutout.
Take pictures, tweet to @MLG!!!

Woah just found out about this happening, been without internet for a few days. My bad for the late notice but I'm gonna try and drop by right now, will bring food
|
If I can get my ass in gear and get my homework done I will be out there tonight.
Also it doesn't take much rain for my car to suck, it has a broken ignition coil and won't fire in rain.
|
Day 2! Stream is up, beer is cool, and chili is made for the eating! We had 7 show up last night, hoping everyone comes back for more. Any and all are welcome.

Free pasta for dinner! Beer is still cold! 
|
Well I did my homework, put SC2 on a laptop, and my car is still being a piece of shit. So I am gonna have a forever alone barcraft with the bottle of vodka I bought to bring yesterday. Anyone going out there from Mount P tomorrow? I am on 17 near publix next to the VW dealership and would love a ride, I can get a ride back home.
In the meantime if anyone would like to add me in SC my nick is: PWNYnewbs #132

Stream is up! Beer is cold. Good games so far.

man seeing the pics I wish I had made it, this is amazing please keep me informed of any upcoming events.
|
anything going on for dreamhack ?
|
Really cool setup...
any thoughts on what went well? what didn't? any hiccups in your tech set up? power outtages? did people stay overnight?
I am thinking of doing something similar to yours here in Dallas since I have yet to see if there will be a Barcraft here and I do have the house for a pretty large turnout.
feel free to pm as well
much obliged
|
Wow, great to see a 'Barcraft' event here in Charleston. Only recently heard about it. Sounds awesome. I'll try to look out for your posts on plans for the next one.
|
Yeah, it went pretty well. Chesshaha and I are going to try to get another barcraft up and running in the may/june timeframe (2012).
@rustymater People, i think enjoyed playing SC together, drinking, and watching the good games. The MLG had a bit of downtime between games, but MLG has since improved that lately with multiple streams. Couple guys did stay over and it was a pleasure to continue the party straight into the next day.
