The World Cyber Games were always an important event in the foreign Broodwar scene, until it eventually changed to SC2 as well in 2011. But last year WCG happened for the last time. However, I saw today that there is now a new organization that looks like it wants to continue its legacy. It is called WECG.

It looks like they want to create something very much like WCG always was. There is also a poll right now where you can vote for games to be played. Personally I voted for BW as an RTS because I think there are already enough other tournaments for SC2. I still think it is highly unlikely that we can make them actually pick BW but why not at least give it a try.

wonder if this will actually take off.. voted anyway though. :O

Even if it bombs spectacularly, you all need to log onto twitter and post this everywhere #bw4lyfe, go on battle.net and iccup and put it in your profile and just tell random people to vote. You need to post it on your facebook and tell your whole family to start voting. You need create multiple IP addresses to vote over and over and over until you pass out from exhaustion.

Voted! let's spread this! I'm sure we can get BW to be played professionally again. Do the Koreans seem aware of it? Maybe post the link to afreeca streamers or something to pass around.

Whoait would be awesome if somehow BW was chosen and we get to see afreeca Koreans duke it out with foreigners like Sziky in a big LAN event.

Voted. It'd be awesome to see BW picked up, even if I have my doubts as to whether or not it will succeed!

I'm moving this to General and renaming it. It'll probably get more attention there.

Having people organize country qualifiers and a sponsor to fly the players is actually much more important and difficult in terms of organization than having a main event. WCG qualifiers were already a mess during BW's prime.

No CS 1.6 for FPS, pff. There is not even DotA in it.
|
I voted for Brood War and King Of Fighters
|
|
Voted BW, because it's actually a joy to watch and trumps sc2 in everything
