I remember that.. Some Finns up near the border of Sweden actually crossed it just to get into a fight, lmao.
On topic again.. I would totally be there if I wasn't a poor student who can't afford the train ticket, let alone a hotel for the night. =(

Same here. Maybe we should have one in Rovaniemi? :D
Yeah, be very afraid of the 10 people that appear! :D

One friend of mine who lived around the Tornio area said there were people packed up into cars with baseball bats and such crossing the border. Serious shit dat ice hockey!!111

Well, at least I know there are someone playing sc2 in Rovaniemi. That's a starters xD

Actually train costs a bit more than driving a car. : / And, if you take a train from pori to helsinki it will go to tampere first so it will take a few hours more too.

I can't come but I hope this is a success. It's probably a good idea to promote these events at schools since students are a big audience. I'm sure a lot of them are interested in coming with a bunch of their mates (not sure if the semester has started yet though).
Also, people, don't be shy about attending. Pre-drink that bottle of vodka if that's what you need, but GO

Too bad i don't live near Helsinki

Daumn, I live in oulu, and even the timing appears to be a little unfortunate. Really glad to see barcrafting kick off in finland though! And I will surely attend to one as soon as I can.
Also, I was thinking of putting up a barcraft this summer here up north, but that is not relevant yet.

Promoting in schools is a good idea. Heck, in my class of 25 people, 5 play starcraft, and 2 follow it otherwise. GOGOGO, find all yer friends in UNI/Lukio/amis
And a bottle of vodka may be too little to overcome the social awkwardness.

Moving to Helsinki on 2nd of january, so this comes at perfect timing for me. I will definately try to make it there.
|
I'm definitely thinking of attending and I might try to drag some friends along as well
|
Nice to see we get some starcraft activity around here. Can't attend myself because im under 18, but hope it goes well

I had to do this as soon as I read that :D

But more on topic, barcraft in Helsinki sounds like fun. I don't think I can drag any of my friends there (cuz they don't like sc2, bastards), dunno if I'll come solo, we'll see .
|
A shame, I live in Rovaniemi but im at Lapinjärvi now and it would be only like 1½h travel and I have to work those days. I'll try to keep up the spirit out here! Btw I hope we could see some pics/vids from the event after homestory ends GL guys!

I would love to see more barcrafts in Finland so I'm going to attend this one I'm going to tell about this to a couple of my friends that are a bit interested in sc. Hopefully they will attend too.
|
I'm definitely going to be attending this one. What's better than talking Starcraft with complete strangers over a beer or twelve?
Hope to see as many people there as possible! :D

nice to see this happening in finland too! gotta drag couple friends with me.
|
Would definitely attend if I were of age, but I'll be with you in spirit any way!
|
I'll come if I can. Still gotta see if its gonna fit the budget, although I suppose train tickets from Tampere aren't that expensive. If anyone is driving through I'd be happy to fork some moneys over for gas and a one way trip to Helsinki.
|
+1 Attending at least for the finals.
|
I was waiting for someone to take the initiative for Finnish barcraft scene, will be there. Should be some good memories for me before enlisting to the army on 9th.
