I am a visitor to these forums, but I wanted to share details about an upcoming event my team is trying to promote. Even though it takes place at 4PM EST (which would be early for most people on the other side of the world) one of our casters is from Sydney, Australia. Please tune in if it sounds interesting:
Thousands of years ago the Mayans plotted a calendar that spanned countless generations to come. A calendar which predicted that one day the world would end. Scholars of today claim that day is to be the 21st of December, 2012.
Recent studies and research have brought to light a startling new understanding of the Mayan calendar. It is not the end of the world that is upon us within months, but the end of Wings of Liberty.
Brought to you by the team behind the Rumble in the Bronze events of the past two years, and hosted by Gameheart, "The End of Liberty" is a charity fundraiser event raising money for the Child’s Play charity through a collection of exciting show matches, custom games, and general Starcraft 2 shenanigans. The aim of this event is to provide the community with some entertainment during the holiday season, and to promote the wonderful work that the Child’s Play charity does, especially around this time of year. Last year our event raised over $18,000, and with your help, we can top that this year.
Casting the event will be Evil Genusis' Geoff ‘iNcontrol’ Robinson and Australian Shawn ‘Seguer’ Murphy. The duo will be accompanied by a cohort of other well known Starcraft 2 players, including, but not limited to:
mTw.Dimaga
iSAxslav
Liquid'TLO
And, as always, there will be a selection of more… ‘casual’ players joining the pros for some fun and games!
The End of Liberty takes place on the 16th of December between 4PM and 10PM EST with a short pre-show beforehand.
So with the end of the world looming, and the end of Wings of Liberty just a handful of months away, why not spend some of the precious few hours left with your fellow gamers, and help out some children who could use some fun in their lives during this time of the year?
You can find further information over the coming weeks up til the event at our website or twitter, and this thread will be updated as additional information is released.
