You understand the concept of Barcraft right? Hate to sound short, but set up a television in the park and bring an esky if you want an underage venue.

Any idea when this may finish? Will be at a concert that night, may head over after if its still on.

**rezyn8** · Tue, 24th-Apr-2012, 12:37 PM

@nRvPickleWeasel Last one wrapped up at about 10pm - entirely dependent on the finalists and how long the series goes for. TvT could be three days...

**inFeZa** · Tue, 24th-Apr-2012, 1:45 PM

yeah get there early if you want a seat and some beer! D:

**inFeZa** · Tue, 24th-Apr-2012, 1:46 PM

Also - any details on the internet connection? a 4g stick might actually work better than the venue's internet. i also have a HQ pass if you'd wish to use that.

**rezyn8** · Tue, 24th-Apr-2012, 1:51 PM

Internet should be running off a wired connection this time - I have a 4G stick for backup. Also have a HQ pass as well for the stream

But needless to say the stream itself has problems totally unrelated to your internet connection.

good stuff! was hugely impressed with the improvements made since the last finals.

Also i was hugely impressed when i was sitting there afterwards and you guys came up to me & my mates and asked
"what can we do better, what do you want improved?" i couldnt really think of anything at the time, it was soo good!

But in hindsight, maybe hold the prize drawings off until after the winners interview post-game, i wanted to see that

Awesome night! Much better setup this time, great work by rezyn. Being able to sit and enjoy the games in space so good, plenty of screens around too. And most of all, great games of SC2 and an epic series!

Probably 400 there i'd guess (Sounded like 1000 when that vortex went off!)

I think we should give things away in-between games. We had probably 45% of people leave before the prizes were given.

Thanks everyone for making BarCraft Melbourne what it was - an awesome and most epic night for eSports!

I am sure those of you who went to the first BarCraft noticed the massive improvement this time round. We will definitely be taking on feedback from all of you to improve on what we have done and make the next event even better.

The highlight for me was the way you all reacted (me included!) to Game 5 and Squirtle pulling out all stops to stay in the series. The venue erupted and rumbled with your cheers and screams of sheer delight! The Exchange had never heard any crowd do that before!

eSports baby!
