Massman Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 Where are you from Nerd 4 l1f3? Maybe you can find some fellow overclockers in this thread: http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=149160 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 Which makes me wonder - has HWBot worked with any of the nearby hotels to get better room rates by chance? Or is there some sort of particular crash space available for those with a HWBot World Tour ticket? We didn't look for that part of the logistics this year, but if there's a large group who wants to go to one specific hotel in the area I have no problem to help organize a "group buy" and maybe try to get a lower price per room. @Trouffman, do you know of any affordable places around Montreal we could contact for this?

Crew Trouffman Posted January 6, 2016 Crew Share Posted January 6, 2016 In the dedicated thread there are some info, and I could go discuss with the Hostel nearby http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=150946 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bboyjezz Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Question! Sorry if repost... when will the competition rules come out? Will definitely join the computex and south east asia one(i hope it will be not in indonesia lol), and will try the other region if i can find cheap flight as well:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massman Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 2 in Asia but none in Australia is very disheartening // not confirmed // We may have found a good venue in Singapore in early Q4. Would that be something that suits the Australian overclockers who want to participate? The reason I'm asking is because the flight costs with Flyscoot seem quite alright from Australia: Adelaide: ~ AUD $750 return Brisbane: ~ AUD $800 return Melbourne: ~ AUD $430 return Perth: ~ AUD $370 return Sydney: ~ AUD $480 return 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FatBoyNotSoSlim Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) // 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.

Any feedback would be much appreciated Can you give us a rough idea on area, so we can look at Hotel prices as well? I'm certainly keen and I'm sure a couple of others are as well. Just need to figure out complete costs. How many days do these things normally go for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speed.fastest Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 For me singapore is just to expensive for south east asia. Indonesia is much cheaper for living cost. I dont think i can afford flight + living cost in singapore for days. If malaysia i think i can because living cost almost same as Indonesia.

stubass Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Have you considered Bangkok Thailand for the South East Asia part of the tour? Flights from Australia are affordable, Hotels are as well as living expenses. Ln2 you can get 180L pressure tanks filled with 7 day rental for 4,000THB or roughly 50 cents US / L. Venue I am not sure off but maybe Zolkorn can help with that. Just something to think about if Singapore is not confirmed yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'm not against Indonesia but I'd prefer Singapore because they speak English and i won't need a visa plus living costs and Australian dollar to Singapore is almost one to one which makes it more like a holiday in Australia which for someone like me who has never been overseas makes things a lot easier Either way i plan on coming if it happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussies dont need a visa to vist thailand for up to 30days, you just get a stamp for 30 days at immgration check point at the airport. Also the aussie dollar goes further here than it would in Singapore. As and Australian, who has lived in thailand for 12 years and traveled around South East Asia, expenses here would be noticably cheaper than Singapore from experience. But you do have point about English but numerous Thai's involded in industries such as computing and travel speak decent english, well enough to handle all the needs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
