    It's June 1st :)

     

    Seems like it's a private event, not public ... strange

     

    All good. Just screenshot and send over all the important information please. ;)

    [UNOFFICIAL] World Series at Computex

    Yes, a board is available for each seat. Whether you join the qualifier or not is up to you to decide.

     

    Monitors ... working on it. Worst case scenario: we have ~12 in office at the moment, all we can bring to Computex. For those who will join the event, get your ticket ASAP so we can budget and plan for getting all the monitors :)

     

    Sweet. Going by my packlist of shit, can you also please provide: SSDs (multiple please), Keyboard, Mouse, Beer fridge stocked with beer (and other drinks), MAP Gas and blowtorch head, LN2 Pots, tweaks, oh and any high end GPUs that are also spare. THANKS MASSMAN!

    Also, I've got myself a ticket as an International visitor, that gets me into Computex for June 2nd – June 5th, 2015 9:30 AM – 6:00 PM.

    Is it possible to arrange access for the two earlier event days?

     

    I got the info from here:

    http://www.computextaipei.com.tw/en_US/show/info.html?id=8507045EE3547428D0636733C6861689&sFuncID=8507045EE3547428D0636733C6861689

     

    Still says 2015, so presume it's wrong.

     

    But in the past, international visitors had access for the full time of the event?

    Thanks Pieter.

     

     

    All I heard here is, "Hey Matt, I'm paying and you dont have to pay a cent!"

    If you'll be getting in-calls, make sure you tie a sock to the door.

     

    "airbnb or 5 star hotel" - Noice!

     

    Yeah ok, maybe a 4 star hotel. Gotta keep the spending down.

    I always seem to end up hostelling in the red-light districts of town, where is this so I can avoid it?

    That's because you cheap out on accom.... Just crash with me. I'll airbnb or a place or get a nice 5star hotel for the week.

    I dont speak any chinese, so I'll have to do train I guess.

    I can teach you to swear? That's what I still remember from Chinese classes in school.

    // not confirmed //

     

    We may have found a good venue in Singapore in early Q4.

    ...

    I know it's not exactly the same like going to Australia, but apart from Adelaide and Brisbane I guess the travel is bearable? Any feedback would be much appreciated :)

     

    With Q4, just note the formula one weekend in Singapore, that weekend is bad for flights and hotel prices. 16/17/18 Sep. (EDIT)

     

    I'm not totally aposed to it, because honestly I've paid not much more for my trips to Adelaide and Cairns for team meet ups before, and I can crash with friends in Singapore for cheap/free accommodation. Only issue would be increased costs for checked in luggage, but if hwbot can supply the main problems of monitors/psus etc., it's a better option.

     

    So yeah, if it happens, I'll consider it, but costs + time from work would be up in the air for me. But if I can't make it to Computex, I'd highly consider Singapore.
