Hey,
I was wondering, if there are any other SC2 -or eSports in general- fans in the City of Sudbury (Ontario Canada).
Now, personally, I have been working at Fnatic for the past 2 years, and have held positions at other professional organizations previously. I always make it a point to seek out fellow eSports enthusiasts.
For instance, apparently a guy in my program (BUAD at Cambrian College) is very into WoW, and even knows the eSports side of it.
I have also seen quite a few casual SC2 people playing in the cafeteria and made the point of going over to them and asking them a few questions (sadly, they knew nothing about eSports, but I did inform them!)
I also believe Masq lives in the Sudbury area, or at least I get that impression as he was looking for a ride to the GSL Finals get-together in Toronto for S2.
Anyway, I think it would be pretty kool to grow a local community here in Sudbury, pickings are pretty slim but...it would be sweet to have a community here to get some friendly LAN's going or even to setup a northern ontario GSL Finals watching group like they have in Toronto.
If so, make a post or you can PM me!
tl;dr version: If you live in Sudbury or close to Sudbury, would you be interested in making some sort of local community group to do some friendly LAN's or tournament viewings, etc. If so, make a post or give me a PM!

I'm from Sault Ste. Marie originally.. Currently in Guelph for school, definitely up north there with ya .
|
That's still 3 hours away, so I don't count that sorry TT.
Same with North Bay or Timmins.
I am talking, anyone from the actual city of Sudbury or from a community that has public transit to Sudbury (no matter how bad).

Hey! I'm from Timmins and in Guelph now. =) Nice!
|
Apparently, we don't count... =( Not nice.
|
SORRY! It's just so far you know? It would suck for you guys to have to come that far. If you would be up for it sure thing, that would be sick! I just wouldn't want to be like "hey lets get together for a LAN party or something" and then you drive like 3-6 hours and you don't have fun...thats all TT

haha, we're from the NORTH, man. I used to drive to Sudbury just to go to the mall and check out different stuff.

Yeah ahaha I guess that is true, Sudbury does happen to be the largest city in Northern Ontario : )
Well, anyone is welcome, I am curious what our community is like and if anyone is interested in doing some events or anything!

Hey hey,
Yes I'm in Sudbury. If you get anything going or have any questions feel free to shoot me a PM. One of my ex-roommates played Broodwar (only around C level) but besides him, I don't know anyone who games in Sudbury.

I know some REALLY bad casuals, but anyone involved in E-Sports, plays FPS sadly..

Sudbury ontario here, born and raised.
Currently going to LU, 3rd year. What little free time I have is pretty much all SC2. I was a active BW player but was never very good, too young to work on things seriously.
You can blindly me count me in, schedule permitting, for any tournies/lans/ meet-ups about developing a community. The thought of it has actually been on my mind for awhile since I'd very much like to turn my SC2 playing into a serious hobby. LU has no CSI team and I very much doubt they'd have much interest in forming one.
You can PM me on here, or hell Jmack.206. Usually online there.
.....NA server.....get it, location thread.....specifying which server. O I'm hysterical.

More people coming out of the woodworks which is neat. To my knowledge we don't even have a lan center in Sudbury though, do we ?
|
No we don't. We used to, but it closed down.
Just add me to skype or msn would be best and we could get a group going from that : )
