Ok have iM or landoms heard anything?

We've basically been told numerous times that flgihts + accom are assured and going to be booked soon (lol a week away, anyways).

Is this the same line that you guys have been fed?

Also QLD guys what was the qual like + does it seem like it will go ahead (I think there were people there from the company running the event?)

also general discussion of nats.

i believe conz is getting his flights booked via the guys at wcg, not sure on the progress of this though. however, we have all been emailed release and indemnity forms, which state that we are to be provided with flights and accom etc. and then basically detailing if we die on the way to/from/at the event then nobody is accountable LOL.

The qld qual was just like any other elysium 1.6 comp as there was no presence of any tls/rcg official.

edit. can we get some sort of a list of teams intending on attending the event?

dinQ will be there

Well there are only 5 teams that have qualified -
gpx, landoms, iM, and the 2 qld teams (im assuming there were 2 spots at qld).

No1 has had their flights booked yet and theres no info or anything yet and with the nats 1 week away i cant see it going ahead (or if it does it'll be absolutely awful).

They also still havent given any updates on the huge amounts of missing prizes (cash and gear) since they started being investigated by the ACCC for being a scam several weeks ago, so really not sure whats going on. I would also encourage more people to be submitting scam reports instead of just sitting back and taking it on the chin.

no1 from WCG was at the QLD qual, just me, jim and the usual suspects.

i was told 6 team Nationals

Immunity
Landoms
Gameplex
DinQ (sponny jks peekay conz jimneso)
Athletico (peetyG, kynz, gonzo, sai, padz)
1Up (Takita, wckd, exe, dao, crate)

Was originally 5 team nats, but got bumped to 6, since the 6th team didnt have any expenses.

Even though we could of got 2 more QLD teams, it wasnt allowed due to low PC count, and tight schedule.

costa is supposed to be getting his flight booked, but it still hasn't been completed, afaik he still hasn't filled out the form. He has to buy his own ticket up on wed as well i think. From my email to rocky it seems as though teams are getting flow up sat morning

Yeah saturday morning is difficult i can imagine ... we are hoping to not do this however, be aware that i'm sending out mass emails tonight, because i've just found out that the team at tls haven't been in contact with anyone but the sydney winners, even though they have been provided all the winners details, so now i'm in a mad rush to get all the information and paperwork required completed so i can get all the participants onsite for the nf.

I hope you can all be paitent with me and assist in completing these request's

Cheers!

WCG finals scheduled in the 'twilight session' from 10-11pm and not mentioned anywhere else in the timetable? Now even I'm a little confused

#22 i think they'll have just enough time to fit the entire WCG nationals over all 6 games with only 12 pc's in that 1 hour timeslot so i wouldnt be too worried

Just ring up jupiters and try and book 2 extra rooms under the guise of being from the EB Expo and you'll soon find out if any accomodation has been booked. If it hasn't yous are fuckeddddd.

If you guys are still keen to play WCG then I have this Nigerian mate who's currently soliciting buy-ins for a fortune in gold doubloons he has back home. He just needs $5,000 in unmarked notes to help clear customs.
