QUOTE(CityLife @ Mar 25 2008, 02:00 AM)
Agree with u that our community is good.
But really, u must educate me on this.
I was informed that WCG:SG 2007 offered a wide variety of both PC and consoles games option,
compared to WCG:MY 2007 which offered 6 PC games.

Grandness of an event is inseparable. Visitors or viewers would take them as one.
Whether WCG and GXL, people would receive it coming from organizer from SG.
Thinking out of the box or combining 2 similar events might be an good idea after all.

I think WCG:MY can benefit or improve from the following perspective:-

Website design and TIMELY update
      In this aspect multiplay.lowyat.net gave a more timely update than my.worldcybergames.com

Commentator or shout caster for the gaming onstage
      It is a little awkard that 2 players playing onstage without a commentator.
      Just imagine u watch F1, and just see the cars roam for 51 laps without any commentator.


Console gaming

Apparel
      Let the public, visitors or gamers have the opportunities to own a WCG related T-shirt or jacket (not via high price biding)
      Turning a WCG apparel into exclusive item is not a good marketing. The sponsors of WCG eg Samsung should also be notified of this.

MC with a some reasonable knowledge of computer games that is being played.
      MC combining with expert gamers in doing emcee?? Might sparks few local talents in this aspect.

WCG Game Hobby club
    Example
    Perhaps, Si_Jali might run a one day or half day crash course in FIFA?
    DOTA reunion day?
    RTS Gamers club ??
    Clan recruiting day for other games??

Good aspect or points that WCG:MY need to continue
Choosing Midlands as venue
Sponsor all winners to Grand finals
*

for the last 10 years, I have went to watch F1 in sepang 5 times. No commentators, no infos. Just my eyes and if ur lucky the big screens. Don't compare them. Just being there is worth many commentaries alone.
Another thing is like Chapree pointed out, In2 SPONSORED the ticket to the grand finals, thus they have to limit what games that they can have. Believe me, I don't see much malaysian forking out their money to go to the grand final anytime soon.
And WCG apparel IMO deserves to be exclusive. Only the limited few have the right to wear it for free to show their status as an elite gamer. the "if you want it, buy it" is not wrong, as ppl either you earn your shirt, or fork out money. Either way it fuels motivation for ppl to get better.

I do agree with you. My boss wants to make a fest but it kept being delayed because sponsorship placement. And also. I think the Singapore got more money maa. that's what AWCG will be held there
