[AeroZeppelin]

Wii points and cash prizes.

 

[pockyD]

is it $15 venue fee, with an additional cost per event? is it $15 per event? or is it $15 for all events, such that each event's entry is basically $2, and the payouts reflect it?

 

[GodFed]

Can we clarify what the prices mean?
Like what constitutes a pre register ($15) and a rental($5)?

 

[Miharu]

rofl only 5 hours for a dota tournament?

is dota running both days, or just first day only?

also which map is being used

old stable (hope not) or .59d?

$15 is the LAN fee for all events for both days, so you can enter any of the tournaments listed.

Pre-Register is when you sign up on the forms. Rentals mean that you rent a computer to play at the LAN (if you're just in it for the consoles you just skip it).

 

[Miharu]

thanks

 

[The___cheese]

This tournament looks funny.

Sorry for the late response (I'm not in charge of the Dota tourny). It will go for one day, but if needed, we will make it two days. I highly doubt it will go to two days though.

 

[AeroZeppelin]

This tournament looks funny.

It's just a fun little tournament we made for the Spring Break for whoever is in the area who just wants to drop by and have a fun time. May not have the best prizes, but we have a lot of games and tournaments available

alright thanks for the response, much appreciated

we'll make it fast (aka 1 day)

 

[Shroomed]

By funny he means laugh at funny. Not fun.

 

[rayecho]

15 is a lot for melee singles lol

 

[pockyD]

prize payouts are going to be maaad low too

if you go, you're paying for the experience of playing all the games, not for the experience of a competitive tournament (not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just not what a lot of people are looking for in a tournament)

whoops, sorry typo. The actual address is 41800 Blacow Road. apologies for the mistake. if you're having trouble finding the actual lan inside the school, go to the large parking lot on the right side of the school's marquee board and follow the road inside the school, and you'll find us.
