Due to the minimal amount of PCs, this LAN event will be a maximum of 32 players participating. If you are interested, please sign up via the following link.

The Link is NOT the official sign up (you can sign up on the day) it just gives us an idea on amount of competitors + the players that sign up via the link get first preference if we go over the 32 player quota.

This sounds like a threat. If you two aren't going to get along, just ignore each other at the LAN.

Edit: You better keep that promise. No one will be a happy chappy if you guys ruin it for everyone.

Chiddiru:

it's a promise

Kreamy uve met me, Im there to meet Zenabi, Pokemon and Satu, im just making the point if soul wants to continue his childish behaviour towards me at this lan or do anything that effects me negatively at the lan im not ignoring it, its the same comment i made before sydney.

So, basically, you're going to risk ruining the LAN for everybody just because one person might start on you? That's nice.

I doubt Asa Akira will do anything stupid unless you bait him into it. He's not going to ruin the LAN for everyone just because of you. You're not special.

[syfRize]

wtfwtf

I'm not threatening anyone or whatever haha, who even got that impression
I'm just keen to meet new people, if fede calls me a child, i'll remind him that he owes me an apology for other things

No harm going on here, and anyone that takes it as me threatening him needs to really rethink what i'm saying

[FaDePressureTest]

yes but any sort of physical threat to anyone should be taken seriously. This isn't the right way to handle it.
I think there should be every right to ban anyone from any offline event that threatens someone there beforehand with violence

[syfIce]

Is it really worth getting in a fight over Chid i dont think so just ignore the people who u dislike at the lan no need for violence

[ThatGuyDoMo]

Time to join in on the drama train because I love it.

@Chiddles, just ignore soul, he may be annoying to you but meh, no need for the veiled threats.

@SouL, yikes dude I know Feddles has sorta lashed out at you here but all I see is you being passive aggressive towards him. Chill out man.

Adelaide has so few LANs as it is, this should be a happy occasion

Hope it all runs smoothly.

Been so long I can't remember what the gear is like anymore. Having said that, any keyboard has to be better than mine these days. At least I've worked out why my keys don't work sometimes.

Anyone know what sort of mice they have at Arena at the moment?

Quick Comments

	TtSYF.zeNo:	They have logitech G9's and some Sensei too
	ETL.snexwang:	The keyboards are those generic Microsoft ones IIRC. And yeah, G9X mice.

The front 12 and back 8 or so are G9Xs, the back 10 in the two back rooms are Steelseries Senseis.

The back 10 in the two rooms have some Corsair mechanical keyboards too, I forget which make.

[NairX.Totodile]

oh yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy another event that i can make to.... yayyy

[Satu]

I have to side with everyone else here chid, physical threats aren't welcomed for LAN environments. I highly recommend you take back your threat if you want the event to go smoothly for yourself. I don't care who it was or what was said, your actions are inappropriate.

On a different note, Im seriously looking forward to this lan. Not going to hype myself up, will look to show my skill at the event itself.

anyone willing to threat or start a drama will not be allowed over the doors , so i would keep it clean from now on guys as its not your reputation on the line from hiring the event location , but it is indeed eCKo eSports reputation on the line and therefor we want a nice smooth event!

Awww. No fights?

But yeah I'm in full agreement with that Buffalo.

I would also like to remind people that while they are at this LAN they are representing not just themselves... they are representing their teams and the SC2SEA community as a whole.

Also if we want more LANs in Adelaide everyone attending needs to at least for one day leave their Drama Llamas at the door.

Thanks to everyone who came out and helped in any way possible! Was an amazing turnout for the first LAN in about a year! Hopefully everything ran rather smoothly!

Unfortunately the stream was filled with lag, which he believe was a twitch issue. Congrats to Satu who won in the end, SouL who came 2nd with a very impressive showing, and Stormz who finished 3rd!

Hey dude, unfortunately it seems the issues where on the Twitch end. To add to that, the VODs that are on twitch (from what I have seen) seem to also be laggy/jumpy. Makes me very sad, as we did not record locally. This is something we will have to keep in mind in future.
