yo whaddup sc2 peeps! i'm thinking of starting a starcraft 2 team league between unis and colleges, much like the gstl, but in a much more simpler format of course. right now i'm looking for contacts of gaming clubs of unis and colleges.

this thread is just to discuss the possible prospective of this plan and maybe get more advice/ideas from the public. wat do u guys think?

i think u better find out if there is any sc2 players now in the uni and colly. Even if there is, most are too casual players to compete.

GL HF keep hwaiting yo!

it can be done! but only if u can convince all those peeps at local IPTA's (not just IPTS) to join in as well...

graduated de la.. why you dowan to start earlier..

umm.. i know taylor's got la. that's wat i'm trying to find out also, whether other colleges or unis got anot. i think it's a good start ma, bring out those "casual" players let them try tournament. i think they'll be more willing to compete as a TEAM with friends, don't u guys agree? no?

wat's IPTA and IPTS? lol

ahahahahah!!! study 1 more sem lar! purposely flunk ur test xD

No can do, finding a proper job.. But if you are serious about doing this in such a big scale, you are going to need a rather substantial amount of dedicated people, money (this means sponsors), planning and time.. Publicity is another major necessity, as well as willing participants as you must remember that SC2 in Malaysia isn't as big as it is elsewhere around the world..

But if you're serious about this and have an aim/idea on what you wanna do, PM me.. I'll be glad to help..

IPTA is government uni ler.. but imo a lot of SC2 players i know are IPTS (non-government, MMU, UTAR and stuff).. dont know anyone from IPTA

i iz from IPTA!

btw,most govt uni students did not join is due to port blocking by the network admin themselves...
only open certain ports (i.e. port 80,25,21,443) for internut access only...the rest? all block (including Steam as well)

me and greenwood can try to arrange something on the Monash's side =)

got a lot of people playing ar from IPTA?? got masters there??

right now i'm looking for contacts of gaming clubs in other unis so that we can sit down and discuss (like a boss lol). u ada?

GREAT! GREAT! contact plzzzz

I wanna see this in SUNWAY!!! Have not been back for any events a long long time lu.

anyone else has any contacts from other unis?

I might have some friends in a few public universities around Malaysia, but I haven't kept in touch with them for quite some time already.. Can try UUM, UPM, UM, USM, UTM, UKM and since you're from Taylor's, maybe you can try contacting those from HELP?

i already contacted HELP. they don't have an e-sports club yet but they told me they're setting one up. so now i'm still waiting for their response.

i wanna try doing a small scale one first, maybe maximum of 8 universities? because i'm not a pro at doing these events so i'm afraid i might mess up if i do a big one. what do u guys think?

Try finding a community, so once you have the populace, the number of players and such won't be that hard to find anymore.. Through personal experience, I can tell you that public university students mostly are still stuck in the stone age of gaming and are still playing DotA.. So trying to convince them about StarCraft II will be a bit tough..

i from ILP/IPTA so far my insitute only me play sc2 the rest dota~@@

if so i'll start with private ones first? i'm still looking for contacts so if anyone got any info pls pm me thank youuuu!!!

currently HELP is having the HGC so they told me they are busy. once their hgc over it's time to get things started xD

evofantasy, u can find at least 5 ppl for a sc2 team in monash?

hmm nt sure bout this but will try =)

please consider monash and sunway to be in the same category, PLEASE!

yoda: "do or do not, there is no try." hahah~
got u and alex 2 ppl ad ma, just nid find 3 more lo. AT LEAST la. u can find "coach" or the player can be "coach" also haha

why why

can i alone represent my institute since i the only 1 play sc2 in the institute~~

lol. i also wish can, but it doesn't work like that..

i'm thinking of having 4-6 schools participating first. we'll go one "season" and make necessary changes to improve this "league". 1. Taylor's!

so now monash will probably take part too, according to mr Ian i'm looking at HELP next

make it happen

how many ppl u need and roughly when ar?
cause the exam period and sem break is coming soon adi >.<

Can I join? I'm from ATC college..

Speaking of which, do you have a dedicated line of sponsors who's willing to sponsor your events?

i dont think itll work (if it work, itll be hard to handle too, and will be stopped in the end). Because for it to work we need to deal 1st with malaysia's MENTALITY. Sc2 is not an easy game and new people have to prepare to lose even in the long run.

With the current mindset, no msians are willing to go so far for a game, all just want to go in easy then pawn then lanci lanyong and scold ppl, and thats why dota was chosen

that is why so many msian pro players(sc2) that play so hard could nvr go so far, cuz of this mentality (i meant the casual gamers not pros). We dont have enough players to build up a competitive scene therefore we cannot raise our lvl better then other nations in the world. That is why we r falling

does ATC college have an e-sports/gaming club?

i think so. instead of saying "dedicated line of sponsors" i would say i know some people who will listen to my proposal and they also know OTHER people

you may be right but that's what this is all about right? promoting starcraft 2 and e-sports? if everyone set out with the same thinking as u mentioned (which is not wrong, no offence) then we could've never gotten anything done.

radical ftw

if this is still on, organizer can PM me, representative from HELP college, willing to support, even if we can only send in BSG players.

tho, i know there are plenty korean studetns in our school....sometimes can see them play BW in college

quest_5692 sir, UGPM

I'm from HELP too

FUUUUUUUUUUUU tooo OPEEEEEEE

hahahaah!! we don't let geney play cuz he graduating !
