I was really expecting some really fun games to watch, or even perhaps audience participation, alas none of this occured. I hope you guys play some more exciting games, with some protoss representation , but in general just some fun games to watch rather than seeing you guys mess around.



You have to sign up for the bootcamp to participate, there have been several issues over the past few days with some kids forgetting their identifications and some who haven't signed up. If you're not registered to be there, eg. participant, presenter, volunteer, you can't actually be on premise.

Oh.. :\.. well i contacted Dox and i was actually hoping to replace pinder to actually make sure there was protoss present XD.. well ill see how it goes and hopefully i can do that.

can we sign up when we get there? is this worth the 30 min train journey? XD

Kicking off now! The crowd is absolutely crazy, never seen anything like it.

http://www.livestream.com/gamescamp

I have no idea how much of todays footage will be streamed live (if any), apparently some of it will be shown tomorrow and during their next show. They're plugging SC2SEA like crazy.

[Aseenus]

I would love to come past but why is it held during the week? Hold it on a week end

[Kablamo]

Was a lot of fun, especially since it was sort of last minute prepared.

Some of the staff were a bit annoying (the guy with the cable yelling to move and then pushing everyone including Fourbys' GF was a bit annoying.. but I understand the pressure they were under).

The games we played were pretty fun, my match against fourby was streamed (first match), though I lost it (FFFFFFUUUUUU at having to guess whether they will +2 blink stalker timing or turtle and gain a sick ecnomy is annoying sometimes) I guessed wrong and cut back my economy.. was still fun though

Congrats to Targa on winning the mother board (Grrr I actually need a new one lololol!)

Level3 seem really into SC2 and Esports in general atm.. so I think today might of been a success.

+1 to Level 3 for SC2SEA plugs

[Dox]

To summarise everything I said in chat after arriving home:

- The event was fantastic.
- Their media/infrastructure were fantastic.
- The people were on the ball too.
- They played so much awesome retro gaming music in the downtime. During my game they started playing Secret of Mana music and I seriously just melted. Freaking awesome.
- Unfortunately someone tripped a power cable somewhere and the SC2 had to be cut short. This wasn't their fault though, and shouldn't be heavily criticised for it.
- TargA won the showmatch and scored himself a very nice motherboard (eBay $$!).
- Hocus and I commentated half of a TvT before the power went out. Was fun!
- Timmay (Level 3) was an absolute champion. Very helpful, even when he was busy filming, he made time for us.
- Awesome girl in green dress (forgot to ask her name) who was running the SC2 side of things was really switched on. It was nice to attend an event and find someone who really knew what they were doing / talking about.
- They interviewed me about SC2SEA, eSports and our role in promoting/building the SEA competitive scene. I think the footage will be on the next episode of their show.
- They REALLY love eSports.
- They shamelessly plugged SC2SEA like crazy. They were wonderful.
- Return the favour by checking out their site/show at http://level3.org.au!
- The event itself was so sick. The cosplay competitions, the crowd, the general vibe of the venue was just so exciting! This was so much more than anything I've ever seen at a WCGau grand final. This was crowds screaming like you saw at NASL and MLG recently.
- We traded business cards.
- We're going to work together to host some local events in the future, they're very keen on partnering with me.

[Dox]

Oh yeah! Also forgot to say:
- Thanks a TON to Hocus for the ride home! Brutal campaign really helped prepare you for that trip!
- Nice to meet you Fourby. Have a safe drive home!
- Nice to meet the "lurker" who introduced himself to me, as he's currently visiting Melbourne on holidays from Tasmania. Post on SC2SEA and introduce yourself!

[Maynarde]

Sweet! The event sounds like it was alot better to attend than watch on stream Too bad I'm in Radelaide atm or would've rocked up for sure.

The stream definitely didn't do it justice, I had to turn it off after the guy that was marketing himself and his sound design business :P

The girl in the green dress was awesome! the other dude (minder of the PCs was kinda annoying though... seemed to be getting on everyones nerves)

[syfMiley]

The finals should not of been a ******* speed run of the first brutal campaign level.

Not much we could do without internet. Don't worry, there will be more opportunities in the future!
