EDIT (March 12, 11:50 PM Local):
- After tournament food has been decided and it looks like we're going to eat at the Korean restaurant.
- There is a pizza place beside The Node so you can get your food from there (but drinks must be from The Node).
- Botwin, Phayze, HobbitGotGame and DuGi3 did not meet up with me at the University of Calgary (I was there all day till 5:30 PM) so you 3 will have to pay the $20 at door fee.
- Please remember to bring $20 extra if you are planning to go eat dinner.
- Also remember that the tournament starts at 2:30 PM and the center will be open at 2:00 PM for the players.
Welcome to the StarCraftMecca LAN Tournament informational post. Aside from the usual tournament events that take place, the StarCraftMecca LAN Tournament will also be allowing entrants to get a taste of the StarCraft II Beta while waiting for their next match.* Also StarCraftMecca is proud to present that the tournament is officially sponsored by the Korean Pro Gaming team, CJ Entus. CJ Entus will be offering their merchandise as a prize for this years tournament.
StarCraft II Beta Notice: Please take note
* Please note that I could only book 16 computers and once computers free up, only then, will people be able to play StarCraft II Beta. During the Round of 32 and beginning of the Round of 16 people will NOT be able to play because all the computers will be occupied. Nearing the end of the Round of 16 and on, players will take turns playing StarCraft II Beta due to the fact that only a few keys will be available. This means that after 2 or so games you will be asked to let someone else play the StarCraft II Beta.
EDIT: FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!
For food, there are 2 options. First, we can either watch the CJ Entus vs Air Force Ace game at The Node and then go out to eat chicken wings at Bubble Mania after (since they are open till 2:00 AM). Or, we can not watch the games and go out to eat at a Korean restaurant around 10:00 PM (few places will already be closed by then). We will most likely decide this when we are at the tournament but I will be booking a reservation for 16 at every location I can think of. ^^
