Long time member of the community here. Ex war3 player named Psycho and currently Strongmike in Starcraft 2. I briefly played with Moonglade, Wobbly_au, Filthy and some other notable Warcraft 3 players in the Aussie scene. I was a Masters player On NA a few years ago and GM on SEA in Starcraft 2. I am currently working towards becoming GM across all servers but this probably won't happen because I am 29 and slow. Hey my APM is still 225!!! I am also a musician and teach guitar for a living. I am actually a bassist though. Here is a shameless plug of the last song I recorded
It currently has a limit of 10 computers with copies of sc2 and various other games such as hearthstone (which is awesome) and LOL (which I am not running tournaments for because it is the devil).
I will have to book the computers but because I know the owner it will be at a discounted rate.
So here goes,
This is quite simply an expression of interest from me and I would like to see if anyone would be interested in attending on say a Sunday - Morning/ night depending on numbers and computer limitations.
There would be something like a 5-10 dollar entry fee which would simply cover computer/room hire/ possible prize money. I have confirmation that we can get prizes such as headphones from a supplier (unable to say at this time) and obviously prize money if we find it's legal.
Another great idea would be league points for SEA tournaments/qualifiers etc.
I would also like to start a competitive team in Sydney. This tournament/league would be a way of weeding out new and upcoming players. I would also like to compete in this team, maybe not in the league if i'm running it!!!
Anyway,
This is serious, I am not just another hopeful and I do have access to venue, suppliers, my own free time due to my chosen career and a HUGE passion for games and the community.
Sorry for the rant, pm me/reply here if you're interested and you know anyone who might be!!
I am moving back to Sydney and will be relatively close to central so pencil me in to attend a couple. I haven't played SC2 for a while but it'd be fun to get involved now and then.

I'll wait for a few more posts and see how we go! What day/time etc would you guys prefer - also what do you think would work for the majority. I'm rolling with sunday/saturday/friday nights
Well, to start with i'd say there will be prizes. We can have money based off entry of course! Entry would cover computers + my lunch + prizes. Word on the street is there is some headphones up for grabs already haha!
Alright I'm gonna start this. I'll cap the first tournament at 10 players. I'll start another thread when i sort out the details! If all goes well we'll do some more!
Any of you guys got any ideas how we could make a sydney based league out of it? shoot me a pm or reply here.
