Hello TL
I am planning to make a barcraft in Spain. It is planned to be really cool sc2 designed and there will always be atleast like 4 computers to play free and I may also start to host some offline tournaments there. There will be sc2 broadcasts when there is GSL/MLG.. you know.. every big tournament will be broadcasted there but I want to ask how big is the SC2 scene there because I am not living there atm and are there enough people interested in that kind of thing.
If you have any questions regarding the topic feel free to ask. |

| Well, not sure about what I'm going to say actually, will try to go deeper into this subject tomorrow, but I think the spanish scene is big enough to support a permanent barcraft at, for example, Madrid or Barcelona (will not try any other place). There have been other barcrafts in those cities, and I think they were succesful, but as far as I'm concerned, all of them were temporary. I will ask people on the battle.net forum and I'll let you know. |
| | I want you to tell me if I'm wrong so I can learn. Sorry for bad English. New to BW, prefer it to SC2, although I'm too young to have personally lived its best moments. |

Side note - should be in TL community subtopic.
All I know about barcraft is that it requires way more time and initiative than you might first think. Finding a decent pub or bar that will actually dedicate airtime to Starcraft is more luck than anything, and mobilizing your friends/public to come and make the bar a profit is even harder. I'd say try to contact established barcrafts and get as much info from them as possible. |

OK
So I'm planning to do it with my cousin that will help because she is trying to buy a bar right now and we will work together for that so that's not really the problem. Actually there is no problem :D I'm just asking how's the community there. She lives in Madrid so that's good.
@SwizzY I have experience with making business work and I know that but I'm planning to buy a bar and making it permanent barcraft and my cousin from Spain will help with that.

Hi from Spain,
I think a BarCraft is not enough to be a good bussines because the little size of the spanish community. But, u don't have to do ONLY a BarCraft, u can do some kind of "freak" bar, u can offer some kind of entertaiment to anime fans, LoL fans, WoW fans, sports fans.... |

| There has not been any responses to the post I created asking about other's people opinion, and I think PhReNeTik has come up with a very good solution, so I recommend you to follow it. |

| Why not invite the Karont3 guys over and tell them that if they play show matches, you can have people buy a "subscription" and have them do a liquidbet kind of thing, you have to buy 3 beers or alcoholic beverages, if you call the 3 games correctly, its on the house, if you call 1 correctly and mess up the others, 1 is on the house, etc. Then at the end of the year you could basically take the guy with the best record and give him a tall one on the house (like a ridiculously tall beer). That would attract spanish gamers everywhere + you could open up the area that you would normally have for their gaming and turn it into a Spanish style PC Bang, get cheap Dt-35 keyboards and some regular computers with a lot of space on them and put like SC2, DotA, LoL, CS:GO on them and have people drink while they play. I know the Video Game scene in Spain isn't huge but I think a niche like that could work if you advertised heavily and you gave amazing service. |
