Our first SML was a success!

+ Show Spoiler +



We have set a date to our very first SC2 event for July 24th @ 1pm EST/sign ups start at 11am EST to test the waters. There are about 40 computers total which can be used and owner has given the go ahead to have the venue until the tournament ends. The tournament will be a Best-Of-Three Double Elimination using MLG maps as well as Rules. Revenue will be split 70/30 and here is a brief example of what prize pool distribution will look like:



Entrance Fee = $20



32 Player Revenue



+ Show Spoiler + Total NET = 640



Venue = 200



Prize Pool = 440



1st - 250

2nd - 100

3rd - 50

4th - 20 (money back)

5th - 20 (money back)



64 Player Revenue



+ Show Spoiler + Total NET = 1280

Venue = 400



Prize Pool = 880



1st - 400

2nd - 200

3rd - 100

4th - 70

5th - 50

6th - 20 (money back)

7th - 20 (money back)

8th - 20 (money back)



As you can see, winnings are extremely well distributed making sure that not only 1st and 2nd gets money but also 3rd 4th and 5th place(32 players example) as well. As for 64 players top 8 will get paid.



Also, owner will most likely have RedBull, Monster, or BAWLS to sponsor the tournament giving players free drinks and t-shirts to winners. As i'm working on getting different kind of sponsors.



What do you guys think, instead of Church Sunday, lets have a SC2 tournament! start running the word around ... we just want to test the waters for this first event and run it smoothly but I want to make it the best I can! I will be advertising this tournament for the next 3 weeks to make sure 64 people DO show up. I know from friends and locals I can get 20 people to go and i'm sure owner will have tons of people show up since we will be advertising at the store and I will be hitting up all GameStops and video game joints.



This tournament will also be broadcasted by Robin who is the caster to many MLG Forum Related Content.

I will try to make it and spread the word, but I can't make any promises.

Anyway, I hope that either the price can be brought down or that this one is successful as for the price for future events to be brought down. Damn! Nice mate! The only thing is that $20 is too expensive in my eyes :/I will try to make it and spread the word, but I can't make any promises.Anyway, I hope that either the price can be brought down or that this one is successful as for the price for future events to be brought down. http://www.twitch.tv/carloselcoco/b/296431601 <------Suscribe!

For $20, assuming the venue is letting us stay until the tournament is over, will we be allowed to just sit at one of the computers and do whatever we want if we get knocked out of the tournament? Because $20 sounds great for a tourney/LAN. But if we are spending 20 dollars, getting knocked out in round 1 and then going home or being forced to get off the computer, that sounds less appealing.



Any way you can find out? Looks like the weekend day pass for a computer is usually $30.For $20, assuming the venue is letting us stay until the tournament is over, will we be allowed to just sit at one of the computers and do whatever we want if we get knocked out of the tournament?

We are trying to run a successful tournament. Therefore, making sure players feel like queens and kings its our main priority Tournament is double elimination bo3 so you're getting 2 chances to get yourself back together if you loser on your Winner bracket match ... i'm sure owner won't opposed to letting people use xbox or unused PCs but that's something i'll have to talk to him about. More on this soon.We are trying to run a successful tournament. Therefore, making sure players feel like queens and kings its our main priority

Game Profile Blog Joined February 2009 3191 Posts #7 Being from South Broward and not a SC2 player, this is too far for me to attend just for observational purposes. However, if you were willing to hear of a BW tournament, I'd be interested in helping organize it. SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

but this doesn't happen every day! what could be better than having a Mini MLG-Cbus here in South Florida i'm a BW player too but Cbus opened my eyes and here I am ... what would your drive be? 40mins to an hour? takes me 30 mins to get there from Homestead and this is located in Miami on SW 40th? or something close to that.

try to see if other people are willing to do the drive and come together! i've been to many events in Orlando and that's the easiest way to travel work on something out I promise the day will be worth it! and like I said doors open at 11 and tournament will be at 1 so i'll make sure tournament ends before sunset so those who have to travel don't have to leave late. try to see if other people are willing to do the drive and come together! i've been to many events in Orlando and that's the easiest way to travelwork on something out I promise the day will be worth it! and like I said doors open at 11 and tournament will be at 1 so i'll make sure tournament ends before sunset so those who have to travel don't have to leave late.

SW 40th? Forty five minutes on the turnpike. Btw to all commuters, the last time I hosted a BW event, people came from Tampa + Orlando + Port St.Lucie, so no excuses bros. SW 40th?

Btw Cochoz, I have a list of 75 players that live within 2 hours of Broward County, and 40 of them are in Miami. (for BW) SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

Owner just confirmed that while the tournament is running everyone is able to use unused pcs or xbox or consoles. But, once tournament finishes you guys have to understand that he has a venue to run but he'd be willing to work something out with you guys to give you all discounts to stay the whole day if desired. once we're down to 32 players, there will be 8+ computers unused so you guys will be able to chill and whatnot ... tournament will run til 6pm(having 64 player) depending on how many people come.
