MetroD, a Detroit metro StarCraft II community event planning group

[PyjamaHero]

Hey guys! This is the poster formerly known as Sins Wage. I'm Pyjama/Pajama Hero on every gaming network I frequent so I thought I might as well keep my identity consistent. I'm posting here to see if any fellow players from the area I live in would be interested in helping me start planning events like BarCrafts, or later on tournaments and LAN parties. Here's my original post from the SC2 official site.

I've just created a group called MetroD focused on helping players in South East Michigan to get together. I'd like to use it as a spring board to plan LAN (such as they are) events, BarCrafts and local tournaments. I think a huge part of what could make StarCraft II not just survive, but thrive in the competitive scene is grass roots organization at a local level. Hopefully some other folks in the Michigan are feel the same and would like to join me in polarizing our local players to get together and enjoy this game in person.

Please feel free to join the group, it's public, or email me at pyjamahero@gmail.com to let me know if you're interested in being a part of these kind of events. In particular if anyone knows owners of local businesses like bars, gaming centers, comic stores or the like where events like this could benefit both players and proprietor alike please pass this info on to me.

Also if you're a social person like me and you'd like to meet players in your are please take up this cause. Building a community from the ground up takes work but in the end it makes us closer. The internet has made the world a much smaller place but nothing will replace that feeling of meeting like minded individuals in person and partaking together in an activity mutually beloved.

I hope we can grow something great together.

I'm in Canada, so I'll just leave this:

StarCraft 2 doesn't have LAN, clearly you're a bot. Thanks, Obama! >_<
