And we'll stay as long as people want to =)

Last time, there were 2 of us that stayed all the way into the afternoon on Saturday, to watch the first day of the TSL!!! =D





WTF IS A EUDEMONIA?!

It's a LAN store + Magic center + board game retail store. So if you want to LAN, you don't need to BYOC (in fact, we are not currently set up for BYOC). You may bring your own keyboard/mouse/mousepad/headset if you choose, but you don't have to.

That's a picture of Eudemonia! ;D



Any questions? Post here or PM me or call me whenever (srsly whenever, I don't sleep at night). Hi everyone! Please join us next Friday for ESPORTS!!!WHAT:Stay up late and watch the finals of the GSL World Championship Seoul with a whole bunch of local Starcraft fans!!

To be honest, wasn't hugely excited about the school cause I come from a tiny high school (~120 per grade) but we'll see. Class size was pretty overwhelming but the campus is pretty cool. If there are any current Cal students or prospective freshman shoot me a message!

RandomRice (Alvin) organized the Cal CSL Open several weeks ago. Here is the thread:



Send RandomRice a PM and ask him about Cal CSL!!



And here is unsolicited advice: henreiman, don't ever be afraid or ashamed to ask for help. Utilize the resources that Berkeley has. Go see academic counselors for advice/to get stuff, and if a counselor is a total asshole to you, go back and see another one. I made the mistake of letting shitty counselors discourage me from doing stuff and I gave up and kind of fell through the cracks. It's easy for that to happen at a huge place like Berkeley (bla bla bla competition bla bla). But use the resources (tutoring/study groups always help... go to office hours... be nice to your GSIs cuz they work hard, and they love students who work hard), and be aggressive about getting counselors to answer your questions and actually help you, and you will be fine! Also actually do your homework (I never did my homework; that doesn't cut it... really). LOL. Anyway........ good luck out there. Don't let the crazy people on Shattuck scare you (there's one really mean lady that shouts really bad words that used to scare me when I lived downtown, but I guess I'm inured to it by now).



@gloomysheep and PolarPopBear: welcome to Berkeley, too, guys! =) There should be an sc2 channel... ask Cal CSL I guess =)



Thus far, I've been popping into the Eudemonia chatroom (just "eudemonia"). We all hang out there during GSL-viewing parties. =)

otherwise i guess as long as im stranded somewhere for a night, a LAN center isnt the worst possibility...

Yeah, the last BART that'll get you across the bay leaves Berkeley at 12:29am. The first BART out on Saturday morning is at 6:08am. If you really want to get home via public transportation, there is always the 800 bus that runs once an hour all night.



Don't be afraid to stay... last time there were a handful of us that stayed all night AND watched the first day of the TSL hahah.



Also.... I should really ramp up these hype threads again and take attendance/carpool info for everyone. This time was a little last-minute cuz the "season" was shorter and stuff. Hopefully next time you'll be able to find a ride.







Also yes Brazil Cafe is the best. =D Yeah, the last BART that'll get you across the bay leaves Berkeley at 12:29am. The first BART out on Saturday morning is at 6:08am.
