Digifest 2011 Ruduo – StarCraft II ir Counter-Strike 1.6 LAN Taline

  Read English version of this article at: Digifest 2011 Fall – StarCraft II and Counter-Strike 1.6 LAN in Tallinn

Digifest rengia LAN turnyrą, vyksiantį spalio pabaigoje Taline. Pagrindinis dėmesys bus skiriamas Counter-Strike 1.6 ir StarCraft II eSporto žaidimams. Taip rengėjai stengiasi užpildyti spragą, neįvykus WCG Baltic 2011 atrankiniam turnyrui. Turnyro metu StarCraft II žaidėjai išsidalins net 2500 eurų prizinį fondą (1-5 vietos), 6-16 vietos gaus įvairius paskatinamuosius prizus. Turnyrą bus galima stebėti vietoje, o taip pat gyvai internetu (nuorodas pateiksime turnyro metu).

Į turnyrą atvyks CS 1.6 komandos net iš Malaizijos ir Izraelio, StarCraft II arenoje kol kas matyti tik dalyviai iš Baltijos šalių, kas reiškia, kad tikrai yra geri šansai laimėti vertingų prizų!

Svarbus papildymas: norintiems dalyvauti, kaip žiūrovams, nereikia mokėti už renginį.

DĖMESIO: kai kurios nuorodos į Digifest turnyro rengėjų svetainę gali neveikti – šiuo metu svetainė yra tvarkoma.

Turnyro laikas: 2011 m. spalio 28-30 dienomis.

Turnyro vieta: Talino Technologijos Universitetas [Google Maps]. (Norintiems susirasti kompaniją keliaujant į Taliną)

Dalyvavimas turnyre: Registracija į turnyrą (tiek CS 1.6, tiek SC2) žaidėjams kainuos 20 eurų (pirmoms 32-oms CS 1.6 komandoms, pirmiems 64-iems SC2 žaidėjams) arba 25 eurus (likusiems dalyviams). Registracija vyksta ir įmokos turi būti padarytos iki spalio 25 dienos (imtinai). Įmokos mokamos banko pavedimu arba PayPal. [Daugiau informacijos].

Rengėjai suteiks iki 200 kompiuterių ir monitorių, bet tai kainuos papildomai (kaina kol kas nenurodyta).

My name is Tõnu “Acidrain” Proosa and I officially represent Estonian StarCraft community. Our community can be found at www.starcraft.ee and was launched prior to the official release of StarCraft 2. Since then we have organized mostly weekend online tournaments, with and without the prizes. Starting from Digifest Summer 2011, we are co-operating with Digifest Tournament series, to represent our community and tournaments at LAN events, here, in Estonia. Our first StarCraft 2 LAN tournament was held under Digifest Summer 2011 with very modest prizepool. It was our big test running larger tournament in LAN environment. Everything went smoothly and success was immediate, following our successful LAN event, we ran an online tournament with a 100 EUR prize pool, which was very popular amongst the Estonian StarCraft 2 gamers.

Our ambitions are growing, in this context, we are planning in co-operation with Digifest, a bigger, international LAN tournament.
