This further convinces me that I should move back to Brisbane. Now to find reasons that will convince the wife...

Quick Comments

asdfSchnitzel:

The weather, the community, lots of job offers etc.

AsylumofSouls:

Probably not enough to convince her to move... It better not be anyway =P

If it's a Friday/Saturday event and it's on the right weekend I'll defs come down, even if it's only to get roflstomped

400km is a fair way to drive, so I'm not confirming anything!

Do you live in Bundy Aero?

And we asked the guys about running a tournament ehre and they are fine with it, but it is just expensive, if you want to take the prize pool directly from the entry fee and not get any money from a 3rd party source (i.e. a sponsor or your wallet).. It should cost around 18-20 just for a tournament with no prizes set-up >_> We inquired a few weeks ago in the LAN cafe themselves, and if you want my personal opinion (having attended WCG and B.E.S.T @ Elysium).. their computers lag when playing sc2, and I'm uncertain whether they'd be willing to install a certain LAN application so that we could actually have all of their machines running sc2 simultaneously.

Tl;dr, prize pool would be low + their machines lag when playing sc2

[Intoccabile19]

I would be very interested, have been to 1 before. However I cant confirm anything.

I would also be interested in donating some prize money to make the tourney as big as possible though.

[FvRphoneheha]

Would definitely go if it's on a weekend before the 5th of Feb .... so within the next 3 weeks xD

[Ruscour]

I would love to come...though I'd get owned ^^

[AussieDran]

Alright guys, with the obviously overwhelming interest, I've contacted Elysium and should be hearing from them later today. Once I've hashed out details with them, tournament is a go and a new thread shall appear to register. Depending on how many from which leagues, it may be split competitions, or one massive open.

Count me in.

What are their PC's like? And does it smell weird like the bunker?

[fray`Alpha]

sounds awesome cant wait to hear whats happening

Nope, I live in Chinchilla.

Strange that LAN cafes aren't interested in esports...

[FvRsolis]

Oh, it's not that they're not interested, I was just splurting some numbers to give you a feel for how much you'd have to make the entrance fee to give the top placers enough incentive to come. Personally, I'd show up to a casual tournament just to catch up with all my mates in the scene. They are very interested in hosting eSports, it's just sponsors we need to think about ^_^

Nerd sweat!!

[breadfan]

PCs arent anything special, but it's an OK venue. ACL Brisbane regional qualifer was there.

Good tournament booth areas if you don't want to associate with the er... non SC2 folk

[Scope_IV]

keen as =D

[TAminimat]

Any word on this? I would be keen and could probably drag 2 friends along with me, possible 3. Weird that there is all this interest for just some possible LAN/small tournament and there was only like what, 10 people or something at the ACL regional?

[Nicko]

i would love to come to an event like this, if school doesn't come in myway, that is :3

[asdfSchnitzel]

Perhaps TTesports would provide the prize money (cough mayo cough)
