The best contribution I could make would be to donate money towards the running of existing tournaments, but there isn't any for me to support...

I suppose we could start by having an on-line competition instead of LAN, but then, why would one limit the participants to NZ only if its on-line

Just make an NZ only tournament online, it's not like it's going to kill eSports.

I have run plenty of Aus/NZ only events etc (sorry other SEA members!)

I would definitely be interested in participating, and I'm sure a thread about the tournament would attract interest!

Same here, lets get this thing going! :D

Well there is some interest at least it seems. Ive got my Clan commitments to see to in the upcoming weeks and also I have to send in my laptop to get the graphics card fixed. But after that I would consider giving up some of my time to dedicate to this cause. NZ eSports may have a chance of really kicking off, starting at Sc2sea.

**ToRSpartaz** · Sat, 26th-Nov-2011, 5:01 PM

Any other ideas aside from something such as a NZ Cup? Plus we need some ways of raising funds for the eSports cause.

Cheers

Hm I personally can't think of anything else. I mean I'm trying to think of things that NZ'ers miss out on but there isn't much. Also, I think if we create to much NZ stuff it will be working against the sea community. An NZ cup is a great idea seeing as time difference can prevent us from entering many tournaments but aside from that... I would say start off with just one thing. We can always add more later on.

NZ Cup on Sc2Sea? would be epic!

deL · Sun, 27th-Nov-2011, 7:21 AM

A Kiwi Kup would be Kool. Be sure to advertise it on gpforums.

I'd be happy to run this if you guys want to give me rough numbers on how many would play, when you'd want it and what kind of format you'd like to see (group stage, single elim, double elim, team matches, etc.)

	ROOTPetraeus:	Sounds great! I will leave it to Spartaz to give you the details. Thanks :)
	Thoth:	That would be great :D

I'll also be happy to help run and cast.

I finally finished my uni degree so going to become active again!

I'm currently working at a netcafe and have plans to set up a barcraft in welly ( for any welly players interested, keep an eye out) as well as develop a better nz starcraft website.

I know - alot of talk but not much action, but I do plan to get involved as soon as things settle down for work and will try keep people informed

Also, a seed for NZ for SCII next year for WCG would be nice. I see countries like Japan, Slovenia(????????) and Romania getting a spot.. why not NZ..T_T

deL · Mon, 28th-Nov-2011, 6:40 AM

Cool I might make a poll thread to find out people's format and time preference some time

If someone could point out who to talk to about getting this up and running then I could get it started.

I've tried to have a look around with no success (Xlan didn't want to do a wcg qualifier for reasons that didn't make any sense to me)

Spartaz do you want to get in contact with deL about this? Seems like a pretty good offer.

**ToRSpartaz** · Mon, 28th-Nov-2011, 2:07 PM

Ill create a thread about the interest and that later on. For a NZ Cup or something later on tonight and see if we can make a go of it. We do have a lot of show of big support so should be good ^^
