hadnt had much time to reply this page ever since it was,

since i am free now ill let my opinion out on this

Majority of malaysians dont even want to spend THAT amount of money for a copy of SC2, within my peers? im the only one that owns an original copy, my best friend didnt even bother buying it, after playing a few mths using my acc, he just stopped playing altogether, students especially wont spend that kinda money on SC2 when they have free LAN games and Online games around.

Now 2nd, SC2 aint exactly POPULAR in Malaysia, compared to other games you can find around here, and lets be honest, SC2 isint exactly a leisure gamer's game, so that said, player pool isint huge in malaysia for a decent tourney that would meet your expectations.

3rd, parents dont give a fark what u said about this tourney, they aint lettin u get there, u can win a big muthafarkin GSL and come back to malaysia and they are still gonna slap ur arse for running to Korea and not studying. Geddit? this isint just talking bout SC2 in general, im talking bout Gaming Tourney in general. Nobody is gonna support you doing this if you have the passion for this, except well maybe ur gaming guild/team or whateva. You are on your own.

4th, that barcraft or ANY gathering related events? please do not do that if you dont have a full list of CONFIRMED attendee's, dont even plan it if you dont have the a list of attendees, its just going to be a waste of your resources, no offense to the other dedicated players we have here atm, coz ppl are gonna FFK (fong fei kei)[said they are coming but nvr appear or cancel last min]. And another simple reason is, our player pool consist of muslims too, its pretty straight fwd that they cant enter a bar openly regardless if they are gonna drink or not.

So as you can see, what you are doing now, is just the start of bringing the gaming community in malaysia up to the NEXT level. If you were to compare gaming communities of Malaysia with other countries, we are WAY back. So what you are facing now is what the pioneers of e-sports in other places faced during the early periods.

All i can say is, you will need a whole lot of perseverance, research and fresh ideas if you want to keep it alive AND growing, and its nvr gonna be easy and you are sure to rant more. but, its a start. good luck!
