Please arrive at the venue between 10:30 - 11:00. The earlier the better. The tournament is set to start at !!!!!!11:00!!!!!!



This is so that we can complete the brackets promptly and you can get your computers set up quickly as possible so that the start of the tournament is smooth.



They have everything you need at the venue. Computers, Moniters, keyboards, mouses, headphones, mousepads etc. HOWEVER, if you want to bring your own keyboard, mouse, headphone, mousepad you are welcome to.



The allocated computers for our tournament are all on the bottom level. Just walk into the building and you are right there.



To get to the venue via public transport you can get there a few ways. From Flinders Street walk across the river and down to crown. Find city road one main road in. From Southern Cross Station take the #12 down to the the stop near the macca's. Otherwise you can just walk from the station. Roughly 20 minute walk.



Please see Sean or Eugene when you first arrive to check in for the tournament.



If you are going to be late, don't worry, just let us know and you will still be added to the bracket. This could be on facebook, sc2sea, teamliquid, twitter (@SC2Probe, @eastuto), skype,discord. BUT PLEASE LET US KNOW.



We are really looking forward to running this event, hope to see you all there tomorrow!
