Should be in TL Community section (General). Not in Alabama, soz
|
I'm in Birmingham now. Grew up in Montgomery and went to college in Auburn. My gaming comp is currently out of commision but would be all for getting some kind of local tourney together in the future. Been playing Blizzard RTSs since Warcraft: Orcs and Humans.
And you are certainly not the only gamer in Alabama playing SC2. I work with about 7 people who play it and my Uncle and cousins play too, and they're all in AL. Almost all of the aformentioned players, except for my cousin, suck balls though. Mid Diamond Terran here with only about 60 games played. Gotta order a new hard drive for my laptop and I'll be online again.

I know a few people from college that play, but they're pretty terrible. None of them interested in the progaming scene at all either. They tend to lean more toward the UMS or single player aspects of SC2.
I hope you're able to get your laptop up and running so we can play some time. I'm mid Diamond Terran as well with about 90 games played.

I'm also in birmingham, al. grew up here, went to college at auburn university. I have several friends who also play sc2 although i'm the only one who frequents tl.
|
I'm in Birmingham as well. Do you guys know if there are any LAN centers around here? I know there used to be one at Lee Branch, but it's not there anymore.
|
There's a lan center located in bham called Gamebox, they're actually hosting a tourney in December. I'm going to it, and yes I live in AL.
|
i used to work at a gamebox about 3 years ago that was off valleydale next to publix (lol). But last i heard it had shut down, i just ofund out about the Lee Branch one, its already OOB? when i worked there: it did almost no business and the majority of people there were wow or halo/mw2. Usually 10 - 12 year olds as well so i never considered actually going to one for an event. There are several esports events around town but everyone i've seen/been to is for some form of halo. I've been out of the local scene for quite a while though so i'm only speaking on limited knowledge.

Lee Branch one afaik opened right when XBox 360 came out, and lasted about a year. The guy that owned the store was going around the night of the release offering to buy XBox's from the people who were camping out to get them.

Hey, I'm from Mobile and goto the University of South Alabama. I try to play when I can but I've been just watching(MLG, GSL, ...) much more lately due to mid-terms and a paper. (Watching doesn't require much energy or thought really.)
I hope he doesn't mind me mentioning his username, but MrMotionPicture is another TL'er residing in Mobile, AL.
I've only really noticed Halo and SSB local tournaments around here. But the competitive/starcraft scene is growing, we may just need a little more organization. I'm considering starting a SC club at school.
|
I'm all for any local sc event, whether it be competing or observing tournaments.

Do it! I would refer you to www.cstarleague.com
It would be great to see a team from Alabama competing.

That'd be fun to compete in, but do the teams have to be all from one school?

Yea, everyone on the team has to be enrolled in the school.

Confirmed! Tournament at Vulcan Game Box(www.vulcangamebox.com) December 11th. It's in the Lee Branch shopping center. I just talked to one of the employees, who said they haven't hammered out all the details yet, but they are expecting a good crowd.
I will be swinging by there tomorrow night after work to check things out.
