Loving the feedback and attitude from the members posting in this thread. Its amazing to see such a positive and supportive community, which unfortunately is less rare in console (my domain). Lots of you may not know who I am (besides the gamers that came to the Aus Gaming House) but I have worked closely with Vanz trying to help ACL grow since 2010. I just wanted to make a post and say how amazing it is to see such appreciation for something you put a lot of hard work and passion into, means the world to us guys here at ACL. Its unfortunate that a lot of the time the people who work the hardest to make events happen don't get the praise they deserve because they are too busy to even stop for a few minutes and chat to players, however one man I have to speak up about that deserves praise in this thread is JB. JB (http://www.twitter.com/jbhewitt) has been giving ACL support and direction from the start and is responsible for the foundation of SC2 on the ACL Pro circuit which of course Vanz and Dox have helped build upon. Its great to see Vanz and Dox get the recognition they deserve but without JB we wouldn't be able to do half the things we do at events. Same goes for his production team that a few of you may be more familiar with (Doble, Blair, Simon etc). A few of the Brisbane SC2 players may be more familiar with these guys, they get shit done like no others, and it is a pleasure working with them.
PS. This times x1000

I am unsure about how PC gamers feel about attending events with console players (not that it is at all relevant) but SO many console gamers love and respect SC2 and its players. A bunch of them event stayed till 2am (when they finished at 7pm) just to watch SC2 till the end.
Once again, thanks for the support guys and we will do our best to make things better in Melbourne!
