Thanks to disciple for making me a banner and thanks to Carnac for putting this in TSL forums

So here we go, there seemed to be enough interest for a fully fledged post, so here it is!

On Sunday 28th of February, there will be the TSL finals, a guaranteed PvZ, with the best English commentary around and to pounce of this oppurtunity, I will be hosting a meetup at my house to watch the games on a 26" TV in a pretty spacious room.

I live in Ardingly, a village only a short distance from Haywards Heath rail station, which is about a 30 minute train journey from London Victoria. I can pick people up from Haywards Heath station from anytime after 3pm. Haywards Heath is a mainline station and there are about 9 trains from Victoria that stop there, some from Bedford and London Bridge for example. I will also drive you back to the station where necessary.

I live in a decent sized house with my parents and an older sister with two empty rooms and some sofa beds if people need to stay over. It's not a real problem if you do, but I really need to know in advance and if possible, I'd like to avoid it. I have a 26" TV I can connect to my PC to watch the games on, an 8 seater table for LANing on, a PS3 I can hook up if needed, you can try out Beta on my account (I got in for opt-in) and for afters, there are 2 pubs about 5 minutes walk away. We also have wireless internet.

So that's the following:

  • Starcraft LAN for those who bring their laptops
  • SC2 Beta for you to try out. (I run this on High visuals and high resolution)
  • A PS3 with a bunch of games. I got Street Fighter IV for example.
  • TSL Finals starting at 7pm
  • Two decent pubs nearby if we want to go out.


It will only cost you your train fare and whatever alcohol you drink. I will grab some frozen pizzas and a case of Cola or something and maybe a case of beer/cider if you guys can agree what you like. There is also a chinese takeaway up the road where I work that you could chip in for if you want. If you bring your latop, bring some Network cables and if someone has a LAN hub, PM me to tell me. If I haven't had a PM, I will buy one.

I know Sunday is an iffy day as people will have work or school following. So check the last trains out of Haywards Heath. I have a 4 seats in my car (it's just a Fiesta) so if you can arrange to come and go in clumps that'd be helpful. As I said, I can have a few sleep here if you really need to but you need to tell me beforehand. If needed, we do have an Inn up the road which I guess I could look into. If you want to drive to my place, PM me for directions/address. It's about 8 minutes from the station in a Village very near by.

Contact Number and meeting info 07882059100 is my mobile. If you have a skype phone and want to save money Flickyfij is my username.

Outside the train station there is a drop off and collection point. I'll pick you guys up from there in a... dark blue Fiesta. I dunno, it's kinda purple. It's R registration and should have a bunkie doll floating in the window.

~So, what say ye, lazy English SC fans?

Wow I live really close to Haywards Heath (i'm in Hassocks).

I'm at uni at the moment though (in Coventry), so put me down as a maybe. I'll definitely make it back if I can afford it. It's awesome that someone is doing this

I'll be in England until the 2nd of March, when I have to get back to Paris in order to fly back home.

Reckon you could make some room for a lowly Kiwi? Not sure what my plans are for around that time yet, but if i'm free i'd be keen.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

I'm not actually very north at all, but it's still a bit far.

Sure. I'd be up for it.
I live in London but I was going to be visiting my parents in Portsmouth from Friday-Sunday.
I'd arrive back at Victoria at 5pm so it'd be a tight squeeze in terms of time...but my timing irl is pretty good too.

I would of loved to be up for it. I'm from Essex and about a half hour train ride from London. But I don't think I'll be able to make it sadly. Very nice idea though!

Eughh I happen to be in Lyon for the weekend... Good to know that there are actually SC fans around though. The UK must be one of the worst countries in the world for gaming culture.

I think I will come if at least one of no_re, reno, xelin or tarqes do as well.
They are all lazy or poor though so it might be hard.
No I'm never serious.

A lot of the more known UK guys are in the north. Still, I'll spread the word out and see if anyone I know better wants to go. If so then I'll consider it.

We should coerce them. Would be good to have a proper UK lan.

I always wondered if there were many people from the UK on here.. what's the deal? We don't seem to have much representation (that I'm aware of) in the SC scene
As for the meet, cool idea but I don't think it's really viable for me, got work the next morning. Hope it happens though!

Just came out of about two years of lurking for this lol!

Me and Xelin both might come. For me it depends if i can get my coursework done, for Xelin if he can be bothered to get dressed in the morning i guess.

+ Show Spoiler +
The fact that its Nony vs Mondy is inclining me to want to go more i wont lie what a final.

I'd love to come but unfortunately I'm working on that day;; I live in Edinburgh though so it's a pretty damn long train journey.

Indeed, I know quite a few people who play/watch it.
