Prepare for there to be a lot of people watching.. its pretty intimidating at first. Also practice with different clothing etc.. MLG Raleigh was freezing.. so if you usually play in a white tee and boxers.. maybe try preping with a hoodie?
Also you might be wearing shoes... so think about that.
Besides from what you're wearing.. think about you're hardware.. test it make sure it is flawless and will perform fine. You need to also remember you're in game settings. I know select started a game with the wrong hotkeys.. luckily he still wound up winning.
I would suggest making a separate thread though.

Not sure if I can make this... ahhh.
Is there going to be a korean BBQ dinner though?

I've played in a lot of LANs in the last 4-5 years, and I think the biggest thing is just to keep your cool and play your game. I have seen so many people attempt all ins, etc, when they really have not practiced all ins before the tourney. I would try to play games with a lot of observers to practice. The added pressure of having people watch them play can get to some people.

Definitely not at IL mee, it's kinda far from gaylord, we'll probably just eat locally, cuz we'll be tired after the event.

I might go if I can catch a ride from Burlington, Vermont. Road trip, anyone?

Will do sir.

looking forward to it JP! owe you big time... perhaps even buy you a drink!

So I heard that Idra is going, since its between the GSL prelims and gsl RO64, that is definitely viable, then we have people like Ret also coming, and then a lot of the invites from last time, thats pretty crazy.
Will be exciting to go.
|
Yeah Idra is going. TL confirmed Ret and I heard iNcontroL say that White-Ra would be there in the latest StoG podcast, but I'm not sure about that one.
|
We have to bring our own mouse pad!? The only one I have is from 8 years ago when my family got our picture onto a mouse pad ><
|
If you don't use a mousepad you don't have to have one?
|
Keyboards and mice must have USB inputs. PS2s are NOT allowed. PS2>USB adapters are NOT permitted. NO EXCEPTIONS What the fuck? Why wouldn't they be allowed?
|
what date or dates will this event take place?
|
all of team fnatic is going?
|
From what I've heard about MLG Raleigh, if you use a PS2 keyboard it can fry the computer, I don't know why, I don't know if thats true, but its MLG's rules to go by so just deal with it.
And the event is from October 15-17, SC2 will be played just the first two days (15/16)
|
Are they planning on getting less shitty computers in the future, or does everyone who uses PS2 keyboards have to relearn new ones starting now?
