MatiNO · Wed, 9th-Feb-2011, 11:21 AM

I didnt come last time coz something came up gogogogogoogo im down.

SiF · Wed, 9th-Feb-2011, 12:01 PM

Benji I'm in dude. Just was at City Hunter (chatswood) today at lunch - I'm guessing you're talking about the one in ChinaTown though yeah?

Anyway if you're happy to throw me in I'd love to be there on Saturday 12th.

Genesis · Fri, 11th-Feb-2011, 9:25 AM

Hey Benji!! Thanks for posting this up...i was about to post this up as well so cheers mate!! They changed the format a little bit but I think that was for saving time so can't argue with City Hunter there.

One thing that City Hunter did not post in their flyer was that every player is allowed to vote down ONE map of their choice.

Every participant will also get a certificate of participation from City Hunter as well for the effort put in for the fundraiser so hope to see you guys on the 13th!!

Any other questions regarding the fundraiser please don't hesitate to PM me on Bnet @ Genesis.119 or PM here on the forums.

GLHF!!

Benji · Fri, 11th-Feb-2011, 9:52 AM

Updated Main post. Thanks Genesis for the info, now I can thumbs down Steppes so Rossi doesnt get a freewin

SiF · Fri, 11th-Feb-2011, 1:37 PM

Ok so this is on Sunday not Saturday. Benji did you put me in your list? I'll contact them directly if not.

Starcraftmazter · Sat, 12th-Feb-2011, 9:44 AM

Should have done it like GSL where 2/4 people from each group progress.

That was my original format but City Hunter is changing it to their way to save time. I can see where they're going with it but iono...gives it a more awesome feeling if they went with our original Code S format.

also I was informed by City Hunter today that 30 People has already been reserved and registrations hasn't even officially opened (opens on VDay). There is potential to boost to 64 player if demand continues to increase.

Thanks for your support and keep'em coming guys!!

SayfT · Sun, 13th-Feb-2011, 6:52 AM

I missed out on the last one because I was too drunk the night before, KEK. Not going to be drinking on the night before this tourney so I can show up and get my ass kicked, eh eh eh

TAriiChard · Sun, 13th-Feb-2011, 2:13 PM

I'll be going =p and I've got a few new builds to show (no I don't really .. just more scvs being sent along with my army)

Starcraftmazter · Fri, 18th-Feb-2011, 8:40 AM

Does anyone know if this has been extended to 64 players yet?

**SkyBreaker** · Mon, 21st-Feb-2011, 12:02 PM

Man that's awesome! I seriously hope Melbourne picks up the ball & starts hosting some regular SC2 tournaments

**PiG** · Mon, 21st-Feb-2011, 3:03 PM

I just went down to my local CH at burwood and payed my $10 and got a reciept... so i certainly hope they have spaces for me as the girls that took my info were a little lost!

"Write your details down here"

"ok, here you go"

"what's this?"

"thats my ID and character code"

"oh?"

"...theres also my phone number and actual name"

"um"

"is this ok?"

"um yes"

TAriiChard · Mon, 21st-Feb-2011, 3:27 PM

LOL PiG . yeah tahts what happened to me last tournament . i gave them all my details and they ended up giving me a ring back and getting the same details again ... did u get a receipt? and did u leave your phone number?

No offense, but top 8 were all masters players, don't think you would have taken top 3.

That's exactly what <Masters wants to hear

**PiG** · Mon, 21st-Feb-2011, 4:40 PM

Haha well atleast their service is normally the best out of most net cafes ive been to, shame they're so lost about tourneys!

Genesis · Tue, 22nd-Feb-2011, 8:34 AM

I spoke to City Hunter yesterday and currently there are 25 people paid for the tourney. I'm not too sure if they'll increase the numbers to 64. We can bump the format to 64 players if we can really push it hardcore. So guys tell your friends, doesn't matter what league they're in, get them involved

Didn't somneone say it was 29 like a week ago? I'm confused, and too lazy to walk 3 blocks to find out.

ROOT`iaguz · Tue, 22nd-Feb-2011, 9:33 PM

No, call the store tho and see if they can hook you up. Noticed that 30/32 spots were filled when i went in today (I saw the signup sheet, something like 7 TA members going, lol zerg clan!)

From what I saw the venue was spatious enough to accommodate some spectators. I can't deny my fans a good show.
