EPTI know its quite epic to be there and you naturally want the best production value for your event, but please realise that to me, drinks and actual tangible effects on the day of are more important than paying for overhead cameras and such.

 Nonetheless, I hope you guys make it even more successful this year! It felt amazing to see the Video of everyone going crazy, and it makes me proud to be from Montreal. Marko keep up the great work! You're making a huge difference for StarCraft & eSPORTS! Also for the English/French stuff, its really not that bad guys, especially downtown Montreal. If you're not from around here people will still be glad to help you out.. English or French! So get your butts to Montreal and enjoy what will surely be the best BarCraft to date! | ||

Agreed, anyone saying that it's "illegal to speak in English" or some other crap seriously lacks comprehension of the law. The only time the law intervenes is in the fact that an establishment has to offer service in French if the customer requires it. That's it. You go to a store to buy something? You don't have to speak French at all as far as anyone's concerned because the owner wants your money so if for some absolutely freak reason the clerk doesn't speak English in Montreal (not sure how could this happen but this is an hypothetical scenario) then they'll find someone who can speak English. | ||

As far as barcraft goes- not sure if I can abide by a $30 ticket for an added melon platter... Maybe if you could get a proper T-shirt out there I would think about it. Crossing fingers for stronger drinks this time :p | ||

It is illegal to have signs for a shop/restaurant/bar only in English, and usually employees working with the public are required to be bilingual. But there is many people that live in Montreal that don’t ever speak a single word in French. I still recommend learning bonjour and merci. Hey I just want to correct both of you. No its not illegal to ask to be spoken in english LoL. And no its not illegal to put signs in english, you just have to put it in french aswell next to it. But honestly the laws arent applied, its like the laws against spitting on the sidewalk that most cities have and no one ever gets a fine for that lol. But to answer your question, dont be scared 99,99% of ppl below 40YO are either bilingual or native english, rly nothing to worry about! | ||

I know its quite epic to be there and you naturally want the best production value for your event, but please realise that to me, drinks and actual tangible effects on the day of are more important than paying for overhead cameras and such. I agree with what this guy is saying. I know this event is costing money to produce and what not, but 15$/20$ (door) to get in with a single drink is almost what we pay when we go see a "famous" dj at a club. And just like this event, it includes all the show details: lights, smoke, music, special effects, etc. I think that the same price for 1 drink only is not good value and people will be thrown off by this. Last time, i paid: 20$ ticket, 2x 5.50$ + tax for 2 extra beers, 4$ of food outside...this is around 36$. Now, it will only be more expensive if I want the same... I'd set the price to 15$ + 2 drinks again as it makes it much more appealing for people. I am telling you this, because I talked to many people who are a bit more casual fans, but wanted to come. And when I told them the price...they were not sure they were interested anymore. Especially for the people that don't know if they are available at the time and need to buy a ticket at the door. Don't get me wrong, I'll still go, but to fill the place with 1000 people+, its our job to talk to friends and invite other players that are not aware of this event...simply, the price makes it more difficult to convince these more casual fans :/ just my 2 cents. | ||
