On November 6, 1869, athletes wrestled for the first time on the fields of New Brunswick, New Jersey, bringing to us what would become the national phenomenon of college football.
Over a century has passed,
but on October 10, 2009…
The Princeton SmashCraft Heroes cordially invites TeamLiquid.net to:
[pu]Magneus - Asgard - [RUTGERS]Clazz [pu]zchen - Destination - [RUTGERS]Astro [pu]Daisy - Ride of Valkyries - [RUTGERS]DIMS [pu]raiame - Heartbreak Ridge - [RUTGERS]Fana- ACE: Outsider
We're starting CSL Season 2 with an unprecedented live, face-to-face, in-your-face match between Rutgers and Princeton. Live commentary, live games, free admission, refreshments, and history in the making.
Directions:
Where: 101 Alexander St, Princeton, NJ 08544 (Forbes Multipurpose Room)
Take NJ Transit directly to Princeton (through Princeton Junction). Venue is a 5 minute walk in the southerly direction.
RSVP: I actually have no idea how many TL.nettians would want to come to this type of event, so please RSVP via this thread. We've had these types of events in the past and had a great response from the Princeton community, so I thought it would be cool to extend an invitation to TL this time around. You haven't watched StarCraft until you've seen it live, waving signs and collectively screaming GG.
That being said, let us know if you're planning to come, because we'll have to figure out how many chairs and food we actually need.
Hope to see you there!
A few words from the Princeton team...
Q: Use three words to describe the team. A: Bodacious, voracious, and pancake.
Q: What have you done as a team to get prepared for this match? A: Practice. (Here, Daisy pumps an iron fist.) We also snuck into the Rutgers dorms and adjusted their mouse sensitivities.
Q: What is the most highly anticipated match of the evening tomorrow? A: "I would say...zchen on Destination against Astro. I hear Astro's a good zerg, but Michael Chen is a fucking badass." -[Agony]x90
(Editor's note: Michael Chen is a 105apm Protoss player and 8dan Go player.)
Q: What is the Princeton team's greatest strength? A: Home-field advantage.
Q: What are your greatest fears about your opponent? A: "I'm afraid that he's going to be bad." -Daisy. As an afterthought, he adds: "I'm afraid that I'm going to be embarrassed for him."
Q: Would you like to give Rutgers a message for tomorrow? A: 2v2 LT PROS ONLY !!1!one ԩԩԩԩԩԩ

That's actually my fall break... maybe I'll come. Don't have a ride though...
|
ahh sorry! I will get a head count this week on who from rutgers is going.
|
Who is playing and what is the map pool? Just curious! Good luck to both teams. Live Starcraft is always awesome to watch.
|
the lineups arent made yet for rutgers side, I didnt decide yet
map list 1: Asgard 2: Destination 3: Ride of Valkyries 4: Heartbreak Ridge 5: Outsider
|
This would practically be a college visit...

Can we has live streaming too?
I'll be glad to commentate for those who cannot make it, if there is a stream.
|
The problem with live streaming is that we'd have to have our crazy set-up again with two observers (one with windowed mode for streaming and one with full screen for the projector). We can't seem to stream full screen SC.
We're dedicating our time to finally videotaping the whole proceedings and splicing it together with Camtasia (just like real PL lololol) which should be lots of fun, albeit time-delayed.

Argh, this is right down the road from me, but I am going to be out of town this weekend!!!
I'm glad to see Rutgers competing, though (where I went to grad school)!
P.S. Hi Hazel. :D

Hey man, as a half of a white person in the line-up, I resent this remark. I'm half-Australian, half-Korean, okay? The total is exactly 1.5 white people.
We'll see on Saturday whether I got the gosu genes or not. Heh.
Go Tigers.

Lurker de-closeting post, go!
A freind and I may drop by to cheer for RU, seeing as we live within a 10-15 minute drive. Hehe.
RU ftww!
Question though, is there (free) parking nearby? Despite living so close for five years I know jack about Pton, lol.

Question though, is there (free) parking nearby? Despite living so close for five years I know jack about Pton, lol. From my experience, parking costs money like EVERYWHERE in Princeton. They recently made it more of a pain, adding parking meters to pretty much every street. There has been a lot of backlash about this, but I doubt the town has done anything about it.
EDIT: Also, R U READDYYYY?!? WAAAAAA!!! RU PRIDE GOGO. It would be awesome if you could come, cheer for us as the away team!
|
I believe the meters stop at 7PM on Saturdays. Not 100% on this, though. There's also some streets that remain unmetered...
EDIT: Take a look at the Princeton Borough's parking website.

Also, your whiteness will be judged by me. If you still look yellow, you do not qualify, sorry ):

no race requirements in CSL?
|
So excited :D there will also be free ice cream at the event.
You can actually probably park right on campus. The venue's at our residential college, which is on the outskirts of the campus and has its own little parking lot. Usually you need a permit, but I don't think they check on weekends.
And gretorp, it would be awesome if you could come and commentate, or just drop by for kicks.
YAYY CSL. GO PRINCETON. Also, people should seriously bring like...posters, cheerfuls, markers, and stuff.
|
yeah the meters shut off at 7 and there's a forbes college lot right in front of the place and across the street is a wawa you can park at

I believe that it was deemed too punishing to smaller teams to enforce the race requirement, so it was removed (e.g. if you have a 5-player team, you're already disadvantaged by having a smaller player pool--if you're missing one race, forcing someone to off-race further disadvantages you).
Also, I think it's awesome that this basically coincides with PL opening day.

Consider this a date! I can help you guys out with the livestreaming as well if you need the help. I'm super excited so come!!! but, must we have white people there? it kind of ruins the atmosphere for me :-/ !! :-D jk!

well if you can't get it to work then you can't! but just so you know a livestream would be greatly appreciated by many!

Will replays be released? I'd be interested in watching the replay pack! :D
|
can i get anyones number so i don't get lost :O I went to TCNJ so I know how to get there but I don't know exactly where I'm going @ princeton. we were practically 5 minutes away and we could've practiced! I'm so sad that we didn't get organized sooner. I would've came to visit princeton for starcraft! :-D
|
I will be driving and can help you out a bit. I will PM you my number. Anyone else that may need a ride around Princeton or from Rutgers (I have room for 1 more) should PM me. Anyone against drugs is not invited, sorry. L riding is the shit.

You only want to watch it because you're scouting out Rutgers
The live-streaming bit confuses me because the set-up we've been using involves a windowed SC for streaming, a full screen for projecting, two observers shadowing, and someone always messing up Camtasia. I'll test everything tonight and hopefully get things to work without too much trouble.
|
By the way should I/can I bring my own keyboard and mouse? Is there anything else I should bring (headphones, SC CD, alcohol, condoms)?
|
yeah will there be anything after the event in terms of gaming/hanging out/food?
|
You should bring your own keyboard/mouse and headphones - no visible alcohol at the event, please, and don't get too drunk before you even start playing~
We can all go to Prospect eating clubs, I think, but I don't go there often so I'm not sure how the guest thing works >_> will figure that out as well tonight.
|
T_T I would come but it's on the day of SAT. I might try to make it...
sry didn't see the big 8:00pm, was using ctrl+F edit: sigh, sry, too lazy, can't find any nerds to go with me.

One of our previous events coincided with ClubDay MSL Finals, and we just waited and watched after it finished up (interestingly, our next live event after that coincided with GOMTV Classic S2 finals, another Bisu v Jangbi match).

Will the matches be live-streamed?

u princeton nerds are gonna get stomped tomarrow! need to sleep~
|
our challenge has been issued. feel free to PM me with a response so I can put it up too :D
|
|
I am without a doubt 100% going to Rutgers now.
|
Oh man , I am so pumped about this. I am 90% going to go. I haven't gotten to go to a SC event yet and this should be sick. Fanatacist I messaged you with my information, princeton is around 1:45 away and Rutgers is only an hour so I figured I'd stop there first.

Go Rutgers! Hyung and Artem fighting! Will definitely watch the stream if provided.
Luckily my school gets a BYE this week, as this gives more time to get more players.
Slightly off topic: Anyone interested in a NYC LAN #3 sometime in December/January during winter break?

BTW our spot in my car filled up (probably).
Also, hazely, I am a bit confused - I thought we were eating dinner first, then playing? Where do we meet for dinner? Same place? You're paying right lol? Treating guests right?

If you come earlier we'll treat you to dinner, but if you come at 7:20 we won't have enough time >_>;;
|
I was kidding lol but yea we'll be there around 6:40-7 at the latest (we as in the people in my car). Can you PM me your phone number so I can call you when I arrive at Princeton if I can't find you? I will try not to harass you too much but no guarantees.

STREAM STARTING SOON, CHECK OP
gretorp commentating
|
just watched a great end of the first game. By the number of people on stream at first I thought that it wasn't live.
|
stream is terrible unfortunately, one frame per second.
|
NAUW WATCHING!!!
:3 I hear Monaaaa!!!
|
I loved fanatacist's build on HBR, especially that pimp move.
Overall, good games!
|
Magneus' build on outsider was better!
Proxy hatch on outsider was beautiful...
|
^^ It was really fun, hope Princeton can host another this season! gg, thx for Grethrop, he has very nice beard~
|
GG was really fun, thanks for setting it up princeton! Spec, who were you? You should of hung out at the rutgers table, unless you did and i didnt notice....
|
|
haha I had a Camera but got really lazy. Someone was shooting video, maybe he will youtube some of it. Either that or hes taking it for his own personal collection. Odd. It was a fun time, some interesting games.
Gretorp I still want my 1on1 some time in the future -_-!

Magneus got me good. I saw the yellow dot on my minimap n assumed it was an overlord, cuz i thought the spawn point was at 3. I was smiling and thought i know where u r. I guess the joke was on me. Later i was like this is outsider there is no main base at 3 and i totally forgot about that yellow spot i saw earlier. Well played and good game Magneus.
