Can I told you so? We almost need our own recording studio for it

Some way to encourage every to do co-op/archon/1v1 practice would be awesome
If I can attend the next one you run I can bring my mic, at2020 desktop mic which would be pretty good. I watched a few of the games, looked like a good event, well done Probe.

If there was a larger prize pool, and similar attendance rates, it'd be cool to see maybe a consolation prize of 10-20$ for places 4-8 to help cover their PC costs. Bulk of prize going to top 3 or so seems fine to me.
Overall I loved the format and had a grand old time getting r3kt by Rize and Pezz.
The venue is fantastic, customer service excellent, and their milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard. The oreo cookies and cream milkshake was bloody awesome.

Hi guys,
Hope everyone who attended and watched online enjoyed the event.
Just looking for some feedback and suggestions for the next one.
My own observations.
-Contact blizzard before hand so we don't get ip banned.
-Make sure they haven't accidently double booked the venue so we can spread out a bit more and deal with computers/starcraft not working properly.
- Get a better mic for casting
- Get some form of lighting for the stream
- Find a better place to cast from.
- Get a better webcam
- Bring a laptop with hdmi connection so that we can watch and enjoy the stream upstairs.
Questions:
Format all good?
How we seeded: fine or could be changed?
For those who had the computer crashing while you were ingame, was that because you were out of money? Or just it crashing.
If the prize pool was to increase, thoughts on how you would like to see it split up( eg, 1st - 8th, or top 3, etc)
If there is anything, please respond with feedback.
Thanks for everything
Possibly having everyone play 3 matches no matter what would be nice. So the losers of the round 1 losers bracket play each other for a small prize which just keeps people around longer.
Viewing area for the stream is a must I felt like I was wandering around doing nothing after my games had I been able to go chill and watch that'd be awesome.

This was a big thing for me considering I lost twice I felt out of place and like I had nothing to really do. The stream would have been nice to watch on the 3rd floor like Probe mentioned.

I have one too that I can bring if needed and or if you don't come.
One masive problem was the way i played haha but the event was really good makes me want to come back every time even with the hiccups it was still a great day and i reckon it will only get bigger and bigger\
i loved the event, was great fun i liked that it was a day event and didn't need moving around at night. thank you for hosting this and please please do it again. i didn't have any problems with the event, and liked that we were so packed as meant could have some fun well playing for those less serious players in tournament. +meant was easier to find people
I agree with Stephen. I liked the times I really wouldn't want it at night as I wouldn't feel comfortable travelling home on the train at 2-3am or even 11pm-Midnight alone. It was a 9 hour day anyway so I feel like 11am-8pm is a lot easier than 3pm-12pm or 7pm-4am. I believe you'll get a better turn out during the day anyway.
After being eliminated, have a bunch of fun prizes that people can challenge each other for.. if you have 30 random fun things that means everyone basically walks home with some sort of prize...? - You'd have a fair idea of everyone's skill once the 1st round losers bracket players were eliminated and could match people up pretty easily for some good fun matches.
Get the PC cafe to kick in stuff for this cause it will mean more people paying for longer play time?
Enjoyed watching on the stream, but could have easily have had 2 streams running or kept the off venue stream running a few of the other lower bracket matches (this would have kept the tournament moving not having to hold up matches.
A bit more notice to the event, please?! I know a month seems like a really long time, but for people with full time jobs travelling interstate its tricky to get off work with 1 months notice.
Looked like a really good event and I hope to be able to make it out to the next one!! Good stuff Probe and Co.
Yeah unlikely that we would change the event time. It will either be on a Saturday or Sunday. I like Saturday better so that people can fly back home in time if they are coming down.
For next time I also will keep more giveaways until the latter stages of the tournament.

I had a fun time casting at the start of the event We would happily have kept casting more matches, but cause we were using Probe's stream key we sort of had to give it back. Maybe next time we can do it from one of our streams and do some of the other matches?

Your cast was bloody amazing!!! Thanks so much for making my gameplay look entertaining! Having 2 casts would have made the down time less.
