This will be the main thread for the 'Melbourne LAN'.
Thank you guys for discussing and showing interest in our organization of the Melbourne LAN Comp.
I, along with a few of my mates 'ToRDarkNoob' and 'FadeRedemption' have been busily organising a Starcraft 2 LAN tournament in the city of Melbourne. It has been clear that the Melbourne Starcraft 2 LAN scene has been lacking which has come to our attention. It has been decided that we as a team will be hosting our own Starcraft 2 LAN competition in the beautiful city of Melbourne in order to not only bring together the Starcraft 2 community but to promote E-sports.
This Event has already had its first large contribution by Xmoon for her generous donation towards the prize pool
With more possibilities to come in the near future.

Go CautioN! Go Melbourne!! Everyone should come along, whether you are there to support friends or team mates, spectating and of course if you are playing. It will be a great day, can't wait to see you all there.
Fuxor you all, I leave Melbourne once: ACL Melbourne. I leave Melbourne another time: Independently setup LAN with great attendance. Conclusion: NEVER LEAVE MELBOURNE AGAIN
