Hey, I have some questions

What's the prize pool?
Can I bring my own laptop and peripheral devices?

Sodman

Just signed up for the starcraft! I'm part of UCC netsoc, but I forgot about the 20% off discount for signing up, I don't suppose it's not too late to get the discount? :P

Really pumped for this, can't wait!

Can we?

Also, if we are just doing the SC2 tournament, I assume I can just drop in at 11:30?

Sodman

Cheers, e-mail sent!

Yeah, huge interest to know if we can bring our own laptops and just play a few casual games (SC2 or otherwise) on the day?

Yes you can, any SC2 player who brings their own equipment will have to sign a waiver taking responsibility for their own equipment.

G4X will provide 4 gaming PC's on the day but we would suggest gamers to bring their own Keyboard, Mouse, mouse pad.

Yes as SC2 is pre-reg you do not need to be at the event until 11:30 unless you wish to get some practice match's in.

Signed up for sc2! I also added a general attendance and game card to the purchase under a different name for my brother who will be tagging along. Is this ok? or should I have bought this under a separate account for him??

How much is admission for my adoring fans?

Also, I've been trying to sign up since yesterday but the website's being broken. Is the tournament full or is the site just being a dick?

Hey, sorry yea the site is being a dick,

To put it in the words of the developer "Super Gay".

Please click the below link to access the store to book your place for SC2.

This is a temporary work around, we are upgrading our servers but have encountered a problem with the domain route.

We should have this fixed asap.

It will be €10 for a normal spectator, allowing them access to Casual play on all consoles, fun corner(Wii, Kenect, Retro gaming), Live stream of Blizzcon.

Regards,
Mark

The defending champion has just registered, David French who won the first EGL SC2 event will be traveling from Waterford to Cork to defend his title.

Its going to be a good day. Anyone that is able to go but is on the fence about actually going, definitely go. Being able to chat and have some craic with starcraft guys and other gamers alike is brilliant.

Now time to start practicing so i don't lose the title

IRL_Sinister

You guys are gonna stream Blizzcon...

C*nts

String

I've been playing a lot recently.... but can't go as Cork is too far away from Belfast.

Unless someone knows a way to travel for fairly cheap... and doesn't take 8-10hours.

Grats to Strout! :pac:

String

Congrats Strout! Glad the lag didn't end it early!

Congrats Strout

Thanks guys. It was a really nice event. It's always cool to talk to people about starcraft and there were some really tough games too (terran imba).
