LAN ETS - CrossFire LAN Tournament - Discussion Thread.
We were able to talk to LAN ETS about it, and they are willing to make it a partnered tournament if we pay one of the partnership fees.
I've been talking with other organizations that would contribute to make this happen and they are interested, but they need to know how many people WOULD attend.
Only thing you as an individual player or/and as a team would have to cover the following:
CrossFire LAN itself would be 1-2 days.
There are over $15,000 in prizes to be won, so therefore the CrossFire part of the LAN would be on the high side of prizes with cash and equipment, especially with the contribution of other organizations that we are talking to.
If you can discuss this with your team and get feedback, we will give LAN ETS the results as we will be marking down attending teams on a sheet for them to show them in December.
and yet again, please, only say your team will go if you CAN go. The dates are March 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.. all on a weekend, located in Montreal Quebec.
Also note that everyone is allowed to attend, even people from the United States - not just Canada.
Cheers!

Plane Ticket: $400
Luggage Fees for BYOC: $120
ETS Ticket: $50
Hotel: $480/5
Taxi: $10/direction
Airport->hotel: ~$40/direction
+Food Costs
= ~$800 / player
Considering css was only ~$6k combined this is a pipe dream. GL to you though.
Wow.
That must cost more than PDF/HRG to go to China.

WCGChase,
we need to know if a Brazillian team (paiN Razer) can participate, our organization can cost our travel to Canada.
Thanks
Pretty sure ETS is open to everybody so if you could make it there then yeah that would probably be no problem. -

i actually did some research doop.
you dont need a hotel. the LAN is being held by a student body at their university and they are providing us shelter with their gym and they will let us use showers...
so all we really need is a plane/bus/train ticket which ever is cheaper/ byoc fees and money for food if im not mistaken. besides if you guys really wanna lan you have till march to save up money. -
the fact you dont need a hotel makes this pretty cheap, it only cost $250 per person to travel to the WCG Canada LAN. That was including gas, hotel, and food. Though we were coming from Toronto. But the the hotel was 110$ per person for 3 days. Really cheap. Taking that out of the cost it was only 140$ roughly.

We have been in contact with Samsung Canada recently and we are discussing a possible sponsorship of supplying us computers for the LAN - they offered to supply us the recent Series 7 Gaming Laptops as seen at WCG Nationals. If it goes through, we will let you know, if not it will most likely still be a BYOC.
Talked to LAN ETS a little more today, still discussing arrangements about discounts if we were to pay a certain fee for entry, or possibly just a walk in if we paid for all the teams.. if not, a discount would be the best.
Frost Gaming (Jon) has also stepped up with complete generosity to help make this happen with management and sponsoring the LAN - if it happens of course. I'll be talking with him over the weeks for preparations and when we figured everything out we will be posting everything so everyone is aware.
