You have to bring your own money? LOL.
Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose.

50$ prepay + 125$ for cash prizepot..?

why not just charge 35$ per person (175 per team) and make everything easier, shouldnt matter what a team pays with as long as they pay

seems a little odd

its because so many teams have said they were going in the past and flake out, delaying the tourney..this way they pay and actually showup.

For those of you asking about the 125$ and the 50$ prize pot it DOES come to 35$ CDN per person in a team. We are asking for a bulk payment mainly because of what #8 said and also we would like to run the tournament as smooth as possible.

#2 I doubt Grt will show to this one ... he lives 40 hours of car away from that LAN ... he's probably gonna go to the other qualifier in Toronto or the online one!

Just as KHarrower says, VS has experienced teams dropping out of tournament competition at the last minute after multiple claims of attending 100%. Pre-Registration will hopefully help in the facilitation of a smoother tournament.

I do not believe it to be an inconvenience to any players as the announcement has now been made more than a month in advance, plenty of time to get their stuff together. Pre-Registration is now open and can be found at

The amount of cash each team must bring for the prize pot has been reduced to 100$ Please correct this.

Also the title of the post would probably attract more local players if it read 'Vancouver BC, Versus Gaming' or 'Vancouver BC LAN'... just so that Vancouver was displayed on the main page.

If any GotFrag? admins see this post, please correct these points.

and #17 ... there will be a WCG Canada. Not as big as the last 3 years, but in a way it will keep the competition at a higher pace as well as reducing the costs of operations. We're looking for 4 CS teams (Nopression as returning champions + winner of VS Lan + Winner of Lanapalooza in Toronto + winner of online qualifier) and 8 participants in other games (Virtua Fighter 5 and Guitar Hero : World Tout [guitar])

that sux cause last year CEVO-p team devastation got knocked out by a less knowen team. Meaning that even if you arent on top online you can still upset some good teams on lan. This decision of only having 4 teams will probably kill the Canadian scene even more cause teams at the bottom wont even give it a try. And iam sure that if the old EG members would decide to make a come back they would either by default get a spot or they would add an extra team to make it 5 teams.
