Oh the finals is LAN? ~.~ sorry didn't catch that part, I'll have to pull out of this one then.
We had TAFourby (Who lives in Victoria) play from home when he made finals in Season 2. We are currently looking into the feasibility of hosting LAN finals. It would obviously be a great way for people to catch up/meet each other but equally if we are allowing people from interstate to play - and should they make finals and be able to play from home - we appreciate we should allow all finalists to play from home.
Long story short, we will manage the situation when/if it arises but you will not be compromised for being interstate.
Given at this stage we are still a smallish community and our tournaments are still developing and growing, we aren't fussed in having interstate participants.
We would rather have SEA connect than be SA nazi's and have it only local.
Perhaps in the not too distant future we will have them be SASL Opens which can involve anybody local or interstate and then look into hosting local SASL tournaments which would obviously be SA only.
