EDIT (March 12, 11:50 PM Local):- After tournament food has been decided and it looks like we're going to eat at the Korean restaurant.
- There is a pizza place beside The Node so you can get your food from there (but drinks must be from The Node).
- Botwin, Phayze, HobbitGotGame and DuGi3 did not meet up with me at the University of Calgary (I was there all day till 5:30 PM) so you 3 will have to pay the $20 at door fee.
- Please remember to bring $20 extra if you are planning to go eat dinner.
- Also remember that the tournament starts at 2:30 PM and the center will be open at 2:00 PM for the players.
GG GL HF! See you all tomorrow!
Welcome to the StarCraftMecca LAN Tournament informational post. Aside from the usual tournament events that take place, the StarCraftMecca LAN Tournament will also be allowing entrants to get a taste of the StarCraft II Beta while waiting for their next match.* Also StarCraftMecca is proud to present that the tournament is officially sponsored by the Korean Pro Gaming team, CJ Entus. CJ Entus will be offering their merchandise as a prize for this years tournament.
StarCraft II Beta Notice: Please take note * Please note that I could only book 16 computers and once computers free up, only then, will people be able to play StarCraft II Beta. During the Round of 32 and beginning of the Round of 16 people will NOT be able to play because all the computers will be occupied. Nearing the end of the Round of 16 and on, players will take turns playing StarCraft II Beta due to the fact that only a few keys will be available. This means that after 2 or so games you will be asked to let someone else play the StarCraft II Beta.
EDIT: FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD! For food, there are 2 options. First, we can either watch the CJ Entus vs Air Force Ace game at The Node and then go out to eat chicken wings at Bubble Mania after (since they are open till 2:00 AM). Or, we can not watch the games and go out to eat at a Korean restaurant around 10:00 PM (few places will already be closed by then). We will most likely decide this when we are at the tournament but I will be booking a reservation for 16 at every location I can think of. ^^

Frequently Asked QuestionsPlease check here before you ask a question as it may have already been answered.+ Show Spoiler +1. What do I do for advance payment?There are currently 2 options available. You can either make the payment through PayPal which happens instantly OR you can meet up with me at the University of Calgary. Both of these methods require you to contact me through PM on TL.net to set it up. 2. My friends want to come watch, do they have to pay the entry fee?No, the entry fee is only required to be paid by players who are entering the tournament. 3. If we don't want a signature on our prize, do we get the prize right away?Yes, I will be bringing the prizes with me to the tournament so that the winner can take it if he/she wins. 4. Are we allowed to drink at The Node?No, because the entire building is not being rented out (only half the place) no alcohol will be permitted inside the building. 5. Can we bring our laptops and play?No, because the network is a closed system, outside computers will not be able to be hooked up to the network. 6. Can we bring our own keyboards and mice to hook up to the computers?Yes, you may bring your own equipment if you wish. However, The Node does provide excellent equipment in case you do not have your own. HOWEVER, you need to bring your own headphones!!! DO NOT FORGET!!! 7. What does the CJ Entus Winter Jacket look like?+ Show Spoiler +
Regards, Edwin 'kOre' Jung

Sign me up please! What do I do about advanced payment?

Pretty much anyone who wants to do the advance payment can meet me at the UofC any day (minus Thursday) from 11 AM to 3 PM. Just give me a call on my cell (ask me for it through PM) beforehand.

I have a question as well, if a friend of mine comes to spectate and doesnt play in the tournament does he have to pay the entry fee?

However, that being said he most likely won't get a chance to play the Beta since the people who entered the tournament get priority over those that didn't.

Ok updated the list of players that have confirmed their entry to the tournament. I would say right now we have 10 players listed + another 10 people that don't frequently visit the site (I know them through Facebook and church and stuff) so SO FAR we have around 25 people. This should be good ...

whoa whoa whoa are we still going for korean food after? i've come to the conclusion there is literally no good korean food in calgary.
don day's gamjangtang is good but everything else sucks. bow bulgogi house is good but expensive and has only the stuff that appeals to white people (chapchae, bulgogi, bad la galbi, etc.) seoul is good for bbq but sucks for other stuff and is expensive there's some place on 37th st and 26th ave that has good noodles but its mostly chinese. apparently the place on 10th ave near 14th street (beside arirang) is okay but ive only had one dish there (one of my first korean dinners) and i really didnt like it but i should give it another chance i guess.
edit: i want a spot i can just bust in, chugiyo, and have some jjigae or something and kimbap in front of me in 5 minutes. does this place exist?
|
Isn't there Korean Village in downtown? (I heard it closed though, haven't checked)

Calgary25942 Posts

theres some new place on 7th and 9th. i cant remember the name but it's 4 syllables but ive heard its bad.

uh it seems i may have been confusing something, do we have to pay 15$ ahead of time AND 20$ at the door? If so, what is the 15 for? I was of the opinion that it was either/or O.o

I also got a massive house is anyone needs a place to crash I wish to participate I play random, if I can't play random, I will match up play (PvT, ZvP, TvZ), and if that's not allowed i will play the least played race at the tournament (T it looks like from now).
I plan on paying at the door, as I don't have paypal..

(*I'm more worried about Dragon than Chill )
Edit: I get banned from this site all the time, so make sure to count me in if i don't make it to post again.

Do we tell you if we'll be paying at the door?

Yes if you will be paying the 20 at the door it would still be advised to let me know ahead of time.

I will be paying at the door.

Hey, I added the replies to the questions about alcohol and brining your own computer.
You are NOT allowed to bring your own computer to connect to the network because it is a closed network. And as far as the alcohol goes, we cannot drink at Node Gaming because we only have half the place rented out.

why am i listed as paying at the uofc?

Sorry, friendo. I will be paying 20 at the door. It says None so I figured I would update you.

All players who are in the "Processing" category please PM me with your information (some of you are only missing pieces of information) if you haven't yet.
ALSO, please read up on the new section with regards to the dinner plans after the tournament.

Regarding food:
Last time by the time the lan was over there were only like 6 people left. I don't think we should watch the game before getting food.
ps 'bubble mania' sounds like the most asian name for a restaurant i can imagine. the only restaurant ive been to that tops that is 'double happy greeting'.
|

What does Chill - Email / Phone mean? Do you want my #?
|
I can guarantee bubble will be packed as shit on a Saturday night. I hope you don't mind waiting 30 mins+ for a table of 10 or more
|
you can put me up.. i am kind of 50/50 if i can get hte directions right.. i play pvz zvp pvt. ill pay at door if thats ok
|
That's funny, NrG.DragOn's nickname is bubble mania!
|
That's funny... On March 13th I'm actually flying to Calgary on a trip to ski in Banff for a week... Had I been alone I would have signed up but my friends are lame.
Edit: Can't believe I'm flying in exactly on that day... x_x lewl

i am probally going as sLeak as protoss :D
|
So far I think (even though only 24 people are listed) we have around 32 players that have entered (+ or - 1 or 2 people), so it looks like this tournament will be a hit!
GG GL HF ALL!
|
Winner of the LAN should donate their prize to me. =D
|
Hey guys. I kind of new to Calgary and just enrolled at U of C. Do you guys go to U of C? Maybe we could exchange usernames and get some games in.

|
I'll definitely try to make it to the lan, but I have an exam the following week so I don't know if I will need to study more. The nickname was from a long time ago. I needed a quick nickname to test out a MUD, and came up with that. It's stuck ever since.
|
I'd like to go, but I'm still not sure yet. Do I still need to send in any information? or if I do decide to go for the 14 hour drive, can I just show up @ the lan?

If you are not sure then there really isn't a point in sending the information, you can just show up and we'll sign you up without any trouble. But it would be fun if you came, Chill and DragOn and Alexander would have some competition for the prize
|
EDIT: OP was edited with information regarding to the StarCraft II Beta availability.
|
I am so down for coming for food afterwards. I have never had korean. And I like wings. Do it!
|
Calgary25942 Posts
korean food so fucking good omfg omfg
|
i'll probably show up at the node at like 8pm and go for food.
|
EDIT: So I updated the OP with more entrants and currently we have 25 players registered (+1 person who has not sent me any information, but sent me money).
ALSO we can go to eat at Don-Day after the games because Crazyturtle is going to ask if we can bring in 20+ people (he knows them personally). Do we want to go there if the manager allows it?
|
Calgary25942 Posts
Yes because it's walking distance to my house lol!
|
Man! I have been practicing the map pool so I last a bit longer in this thing... Matchpoint is killing me! Dibs out playing any toss there. Ever.
|
But Match Point is imba ZvP ... 60% favour for Zerg.
|
Only if the Z is good. I bet Helen Keller could beat me at this. Off-colour?
|
NrG.DragOn and NrG.Alexander are officially representing team energy. They are not allowed to lose to this "Chill" and will take 1st and 2nd spot respectively.

Well i know the campus really well so I don't mind @ all. It also isn't very hard to get there from my plce. However, i am already driving Gao Xi home. So i can give u a ride there if you'd like, and I don't mind driving u back either but you guys would have to fight about who goes home first/last.

EDIT (March 8, 11:30 Local): Updated the OP again and we now have 29 players registered. Depending on the number of people, we MAY book another 4 computers (brining us to a total of 20).
ALSO, Crazyturtle will be getting the final word on whether we will be able to go to Don-Day with 20+ people that night. I will post that information either tomorrow night or Wednesday morning.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST, anyone who is NOT paying at the door, if you can get the advance to me before Wednesday that would be really appreciated. Please contact me for more details.
Oh and I re-uploaded the picture of me in the jacket. Nice edit Chill ... you alcoholic lol

Hey, I probably won't be able to make it for the tournament, but I would still like to meet you guys. I was wondering if I could come for watching the proleague and then dinner? Do you know when/where you guys will start watching the proleague?

Not sure if we're going to be watching WL yet. It depends where we are going to go for dinner.

EDIT (March 10, 5:50 PM Local): Okay guys so here's what I've done so far:
Don-Day - Reserved seating for ~20 at 11:00 PM Bubble Mania - Reserved seating for ~20 at 11:30 PM (We have until 11:45 PM latest to get there)
Also updated the list of confirmed players and we have 31 registered right now and 1 more entrant would be a perfect 32 so that we start the tournament as planned. As for food, we will decide around 5:00 PM that day on where we want to go (so that I can give the places an advance notice on how many exactly and when) and I think that's everything.
Let me know by PM if you have any questions, or you can also post a reply on here and I'll answer it as soon as I can.

Actually theres roughly 2 people that still have yet to sign up + your friends = ~ 36 entrants. Guess we'll have to start with Ro36 instead of Ro32. Shouldn't be too much of a difference though.
|
if we had enough ppl would there be any way we could have the whole node booked out?
|
Not anymore, I had to book a week in advance and because I didn't know how many people were ACTUALLY going to show up I could only book half the place.

oh ok , the dudes at node are pretty cool anyways :D theyd probably let us have couple extra comps hehe
|
I already asked for 4 more "just in case" and they said they would work on it.
|
ya a couple of my friends might want to play too. Most likely just observe tho
|
|
May i ask why there is hype over Combat-Ex and Chill? Anyways i had one experience with Chill and it was a bad one. sounds sexual lol. but i'm sure everyone will be nice to each other face to face
|
They had a show match a long time ago where Chill > Combat-EX.
|
Oh nice. Combat aint bad either

The tournament seating has been filled at 32 entrants! However, I will allow for 4 more entrants if required. Instead of the Round Robin (8 groups of 4 with 2 advancing from each) if we get 36 players then I will have to figure out another way to sort out the groups.
Let me know by PM if you have any questions, or you can also post a reply on here and I'll answer it as soon as I can.
|
well we could have 4 groups of 9, in which the top 4 in each group move on, but that might take a long time O.o any other ideas?
|
so how would double elimination work?

I'd do a modified MSL style. 4 groups of 8, double elim. Top 2 advance to Ro8 where single elim starts.
Still, that's a shitload of games. I'm not sure how we'll finish if we do any sort of group play.

I have faith, only the Koreans know how to host such a glorious tournament!
|
what if people show up at the door on the day~? I had this dream today that I was at the lan. It was amaaaaazing.
|
If a crap load of people show up on the day of the LAN (to join the tournament) we might have some issues with available computers, BUT I can always work something out.
|
how does the map pool get used during the tournament? Like ex. fighting spirit first and then loser picks? or they get played in order or something?
|
The map order is complicated so I will be explaining it at the tournament, but there is a set order to how the maps go regardless of who wins the previous match or who loses the previous match.
|
so we'll be forced to play outsider?
|
Well there are only 4 maps EVENTUALLY you'll end up playing Outsider.
|
|
I know eh? Outsider is a nightmare for us Protoss ... lol
|
outsider is a nightmare for any race
|
Zerg like it don't they? Almost 40 ZvZ's.
|
let me rephrase that then, i dont like it with any race.

hmm sounds kinda funny but im not quite sure how to respond to this question. I don't know what name i used when i did play/talk to you, but other than that im on team NrG and i live in calgary but i think that is pretty evident. =S
|
And once again, it was only for 1 game and a 1 time incident so i'm pretty sure you wouldn't remember unless you only BM'd on one occasion ever. either way its in the past and im looking forward to meeting you all. If your just super curious, i can just tell you at the LAN.
|

Ok then I'm but not sure how to address it nor why you brought it up.
|
i brought it up because it was just conversation in the context at the moment with you and combat-ex. nothing to address really.

Does this mean that you are coming stalife? Or are you still on the fence?
|
EDIT (March 12, 12:30 AM Local): Looks like we will be having 36 players in the event (maybe more?), so for now I will create a rough idea of how the Ro36 goes and depending on how many random people show up I'll edit the Group Stages on the spot.
If you have any questions feel free to post a reply on this thread or by PM, I'll get to it as soon as possible. See you all on Saturday!

lwstudio - [Friday] l3Wkor [Friday] Botwin [Friday] dougouk [Friday] Phayze [Friday] DuGi3 - [Friday] HobbitGotGame [Friday]
I've been in the library for the past couple hours now, if you are supposed to meet me in the library (2nd floor right above the escalator) better do it before I have to leave at 5:00 or you will unfortunately have to pay $20.00 at the door.

Hey, so what is the final word on food?

speaking of food, i just realized this thing is 7 hours long without a meal. Are we gonna take a collective break in the tournament to eat, or is it ok to leave when hungry without interrupting the flow of things too much?

There's a pizza place next door!
|
also, the pizza place is really good
|
EDIT (March 12, 11:50 PM Local):- After tournament food has been decided and it looks like we're going to eat at the Korean restaurant.
- There is a pizza place beside The Node so you can get your food from there (but drinks must be from The Node).
- Botwin, Phayze, HobbitGotGame and DuGi3 did not meet up with me at the University of Calgary (I was there all day till 5:30 PM) so you 3 will have to pay the $20 at door fee.
- Please remember to bring $20 extra if you are planning to go eat dinner.
- Also remember that the tournament starts at 2:30 PM and the center will be open at 2:00 PM for the players.
GG GL HF! See you all tomorrow!

11 Hours 41 Minutes UNTIL THE GREATEST TOURNAMENT NORTH AMERICA HAS SEEN!
|
It's 5:30 AM Local Time, the tournament starts in 8 hours and I haven't slept yet because of all the work that's still left to do. Looks like I'm getting knocked out in the early rounds ... doesn't help that I messed up my hand breakdancing
|
I woulds have 100% flown out from van for this tourny if i had not chopped off my finger tip <--(NSFW IMAGE LINK: Its my finger, its not that bad but if u dont like gore or are eating dont click) about a week ago
Its my hotkey handddddd =[
|
WTF I'm guessing you were cooking? ... That looks brutal :S
|
yep, lack of sleep = GG finger lol T_T
|
Oh god ... so would that like ... eventually grow back or something? ... That's so weird.
|
epic hhype hype hypeeeeee this is gonnna HUGEEEEEEE, btw when the tourneys done , kore should post who got 1st,2nd,3rd,4th, and all the way down.... so epic
|
Yeah, it will grow back, it wont look 100% proper but it will be good enough lol.
Hope u guys post up some brackets and possably a replay pack there after. im interested in the results
|
Brackets will go up, replays will go up, the games will even be commentated by someone you guys all know

Man I am tired ... been working all night on SC stuff. Didn't get much sleep the night before, did a full 4 hours of breakdancing last night, haven't slept yet, gotta go to the LAN center in 4 hours, still a ton of SC work to do and the tournament is all day long ... where do I get to nap? lol
|
YOU donT!!! this is way more fun the sleeepingg ;D
|
... I will play with the skill of a Computer Ranked player ... I'm so tired right now, but I still have to create the brackets and figure out exactly what is going down.
|
Screw that, we're going to end up drinking tonight so I should sleep a little bit. I'm taking a power nap for 2.5 hours so if I for some reason don't show up to the LAN my power nap went longer than expected.
When I'm really tired and I'm woken up I tend to respond without knowing that I'm responding and when I actually wake up I don't even remember being woken up in the middle.
... I should wake up by 10:30 though ... lol
|
Surprisingly I woke up ... and it's 10:55 AM. Time to P90X and eat breakfast and wash up and head out. TOURNAMENT TIMEEEEE!!!
|
So it begins! Got mah froot loops, got some music, got a load of Kolll replays... Getting all pumped up!

So results are: 1) nrg dragon 2) chill 3) nrg alexander 4) me (but who cares about 4th lol)
oh also, the CJ entus jacket was too small for dragon and T Shirt too small for alexander lol!
|
That was my 1st lan, that was pretty intense. Too bad I got knocked out in the Ro16. =X
|
A big result thingy will go up tomorrow. I'm running on 2 hours of sleep for the past 3 days and I'm about to pass out.

|
yo i won :D so happy lol. big thnx to kore for hosting this amazing event, it was the first lan i went to and wont be the last i hope, i met alot of awesome people and had a great time. (and can say that i won a 300$ jacket from bw now to people who dont understand how awesome sc is)

|
Nice job guys, you represented us well! :D
NrG guys can't fit into their prizes? maybe you should stop playing so many video games >.<!
|
yeah, there aren't enough thanks to go around to the ppl who made this happen. edwin/crazyturtule ran things smoothly and didn't freak out when it looked like they were getting swamped. Node guys were awesome as usual too except they looked a little flustered when everyone had to switch computers and mess around with settings/equipment ggs everyone!
|
although i got knocked out pretty early, it was a great experience my first match up was nrg dragon xD thx all~

hero33, HobbitGotGame, Phayze, and tZuJaN are banned from future Calgary events for wasting my time.

Thanks for everyone who showed up (especially from Vancouver) and to the organizers.

Yeah it was fun, a lot more than I expected too. I'll be sure to host another one soon and it'll be more 'organzied' than this one.
|
Congrats to GrN and the Bubble Mania!!! by the way, post some pics!!!
|
Pictures, replays, results, and everything will go up later tonight. I have a friend who came down from the States so I'm not getting any sleep tonight either
|
I got called into work and missed the whole thing :'(
my life is meaningless
please post pics!
|
Thanks for putting this on, KOre. Great organization, great prizes and great food. I thoroughly enjoyed everything but my loss to Chill in the ro16. xD
Got to play SC2 for the first time. I was impressed by how crisp and fluid the micro seemed and totally thrown by how strange it was (for me, anyway) to adjust to the new macro mechanics. Still not used to MBS in the slightest; trying to use it actually makes my macro worse.
|
Yea, and the graphic setting were set at the highest, so it just looked soo epic, and it didn't lag at all. O_O
|
Yes, The Node's computers are pretty impressive. Having Vern's Pizza next door just sweetens the deal.

Btw how was the dinnner after the lan party? sorry i missed out T.T
|
It was...ok, the place was sorta small, the food was ok, (too spicy, but thats just me). I didn't eat too much =/ trying to be as euphemistic as i can.
|
Calgary25942 Posts
the setup wasnt ideal but the food was good
|
I actually liked that place a lot. Much more than the chinese hot pot, which I found quite flavorless.
Oh and you were right about Soju tasting like permanent marker, Chill. Cube seems to like it, but then he also enjoys discrete math and eating entire bowls of kimchi.

i can understand you want to try it for the experience, but youd be way better off just not trying it lol nevermind the $16

We found a new place. Korean BBQ and for around $15 it's pretty much infinite amount of meat (I went there the day after the tournament with my friend who came up from the states). It'll be the dinner place for the next tournament
|
good cuz i thought it was pretty bad lol. maybe it was just the dish at my end of the table, but i could barely finish what i took.

What did you guys have down there? Boodae jjigae (like.. random things, rice cake, ham in a red sauce) or gamjatang (potato and pork bone soup)?
Actually it doesn't matter because both are good

WHO ARE YOU.
Sorry if you came to the tournament, it's just the day was so hectic I don't remember half the people I met.

well we had the gamjatang but it tasted more like fish bone soup tbh. The other dish was a mixture of what seemed like spam, chopped vegetables, instant noodles, and some unidentifiable ground meat O.o

|
I would pay another 20 to go again some time real soon, friendo!
|
yeah man id be up for another LAN now that school is eased up and i can actually practice. maybe firezerg would make the flight out again rofl
|

well we went over the time booked for us with the bw only last time, both would take alot of time/organization but if its possible then sure
|
I don't think there will be enough people with beta keys to host a SC2 tournament, (assuming the game doesn't get released before/during summer)
|
It's blizzard lol, chances are it wont be released in summer

Size 115 has been ordered with sAviOr's signature, same goes for the long sleeve for Alexander.
A feedback thread was created http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=120268 about the March tournament so if you have something you would like to say to influence the June one please do so there.
|
Just a suggestion, for the next LAN can we go somewhere else to eat?
|
Imma cry if I miss it... But if its in a month and a half then I will. If I do, GOOD LUCK HAVE FUN.
|
There was this Japanese/Korean Buffet thing, it was pretty awesome, but i don't know when they close, or where it is.
|
If we're gonna stick with the asian theme, my vote goes to sushi. I've been craving it for ages but no one else ever seems to want to go. :/

True, but since it's Japanese/Korean and it's a buffet it shouldn't be too bad. I'll find the name of the resteraunt later.

Sushi BBQ Inn on 16th ave, across from SAIT?

Well those who dislike the choice of restaurant are free to opt out (although there wouldn't be a problem if we went to some really vanilla place like Moxie's or something). Even when I don't care for the food (chinese hot pot in Edmonton), I still have a reasonably good time.

anyone know what kind of stuff they have?Can't guarantee I'll stay for dinner (more likely than last time), but I don't like fish. Of course if all they had was seafood I could just eat some more pizza....

Thinking more of the BBQ near Chinook. I know some of the people there and we could get crazy extra meat

So are these going to become a seasonal kinda thing?? March = Spring. June = Summer. Maybe one in the early winter so I don't feel so bad for missing this one?

Korean Village reopened somewhere in downtown. My aunt knows the owner, and so they're at like this really really korean place, where there's a bunch of other Korean shops nearby. Its like SW Downtown. Right now its called like Dae Jang Guem. #22 1324 10 Ave SW. They're open until 11PM everyday, I think.

Yea that's the place by Arirang and there's a bunch of other Korean shops. It's pretty good. I also know the owner's son.

Calgary25942 Posts
Oh there's another Korean place opening up on 11th ave. Maru I think? It's got a wall of soju bottles and it's by the Rhino, I'll have to go when it's open.

Is there going to be a SC2 LAN in Calgary post July 27? I would love to have a local tournament of some kind. It's great to know that there are so many members of the community from Calgary
