Day 3 @ i33 - Let battle commence!
Posted 23-03-2008 at 11:26 AM by Baker011
So after the chaotic start we had with the stand opening to the public, today was mostly spent showing off some titles and tournaments. The FIFA 08 tournament kicked off with some of the qualifiers being held on our stand. it was good to be able to see the Pros in action! The finals will be held on Sunday so hopefully we will get some good footage of that.
The C&C3 tournament finished yesterday too with Apollo from Team Dignitas taking home the top prize. This guy really is the best C&C player in the world, bagging gold medals at both European and World level.
We also kicked off our spot tournaments on the stand. We had a very fun Crysis game, giving away a signed copy of Crysis special edition to each member of the winning team.
Our "Play EA" spot tournament went very well too. We had loads of people show up to play us at EURO 2008 to try and bag themselves a PS3 by scoring the most goals past Omni and myself. Unfortunately we didnt get much time to practice before and ended up getting beat 7-1 in our first game
So the bar has been raised pretty high, so far no one beating that.
The stand continues to draw a lot of people in and everyone seems to be having a great time here. Cant wait to show off the pictures of it!
I also ended up getting interviewed by XLeague! So I will be on TV again soon, woo!
We ended the night in traditional fashion....a bar! Although I confess to missing the Pub Quiz I was really looking forward to it too, but unfortunately it was too packed to really get into it. So instead we headed back to the hotel and had a few quiet drinks and a state of reflection 
Sunday next and some serious tournament action coming. Pretty much the last day really as Mondays are usually just packing up and handing out of prizes.
