a waffle 0 Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 I appreciate it, does anyone know where we can get these printed for cheap or free? When could we get them printed by? I want to get these posted ASAP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phonetically Phamous (dice 0 Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Get with an exec. We get 200 to 250 full color flyers free through the print shop on campus via reslife funding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fascist Flakes (Jagr) 0 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Flyers look good, any possible way to get one specifically for games such as Halo: Reach and SC2 with rules/format/etc? If we get sponsors and have some good prizes I can post this on teamliquid's SC2 tournament section and possibly get quite a few people to show up, depending on if they're able to/etc. >> Quote Link to post Share on other sites
a waffle 0 Posted October 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Definitely but I will need the rules posted first :/. Sooooo, if those people could go ahead and get those rules figured out that would be great! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MasterP 0 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Definitely but I will need the rules posted first :/. Sooooo, if those people could go ahead and get those rules figured out that would be great! The PC VP hasn't been on the forums in a month. You're probably better off just not putting rules on the fliers at this point. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MasterP 0 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Wow i quit so glad i was informed about this. So the treasurer just compiled a *edited* near epic list of sponsorship opportunities and this new guy created fliers that rival the best we've ever put out and all you can do is troll Dice? And you guys think I'm an *edited*... I mean the thread is called "advertisement" and you're the "marketing admin", the least you can do is contribute something meaningful beyond a trite one-liner.

Fascist Flakes (Jagr) 0 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 With games like this you can't just say "HEY LOOK, LAN!" People want to see what kind of tournament it is without the hassle of going to find it. SC2 Rules: 1v1 Blizz Maps No Race Changing Depending on entrants everything up until Quarters is Bo1 Bo3 in Quarters, Semis Bo7 in Finals If enough interest there will be a losers and a winners bracket, though due to time constraints, doubt it. Prizes: ??? Sponsors (add the logos, etc) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Prizes: ??? Sponsors (add the logos, etc) For the tournaments, I can create different flyers that would go up at the places in Asheville. Also, if I were to post the tournament rules on the flyers I wouldn't include WCU LAN but rather the specific tournament that flyer was for. If everyone is okay with that I don't mind doing it but do see a benefit in posting that more so at LAN centers and Gamestops in asheville. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shannannonnan 0 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Ok so as Thor as mentioned... He hasn't quit. He is still the marketing guy for the club. BUT we need to let Thor do his job. These flyers are amazing, and i think we should use them. But it isn't up to just me. Also, because we have to have posters for all the games, we may not be able to do 50 of each. ANDD there are rules about when posters and flyers can be hung up. I think its within a week or 2 before the event that they can go up. So posting them around campus now will get teh gaming club a fine. BUT you can hang them around asheville wherever, and basically anywhere other than on campus. As far as the costs go, ill see what we can do as soon as possible and let you know a waffle. Also, when i said a waffle should be the marketing guy, i meant for next semester. I doubt Thor is stepping down this semester. That wasn't me saying anything about him quitting. sorry if there was confusion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MasterP 0 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Keep in mind that your goal is to attract people that AREN'T playing this all the time online as well. The first SC tournament we had was primarily made of people that didn't play online often. When you start putting jargon on there like "blizz maps" the average player will have the same reaction I just had: "what the hell does that mean?" I mean yeah I inferred that it's official Blizzard maps but when a potential player sees that and doesn't understand you automatically turn them off to the tournament because they assume, weeks before the event, that it's for pros only. No matter what you put out after that they'll automatically ignore it because in their mind it's a pros-only event. I'd recommend putting "1v1" and "Official maps" but anything beyond that will be too daunting. The pros will see it and know that it'll be a "best of" system and that you likely won't be able to change races mid-match while the non-pros will also get the basic info they need to decide whether or not to play. Too much info risks cluttering the flier and they're only going to see it for an average of 5 seconds unless they stop everything they're doing to read it. The most important thing is that in those 5 seconds they get the game, date, and location. If they have to stop to get any of that they likely won't. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So please check with Felix first before putting this on the flyers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Keep in mind that it usually takes the print shop an incredibly long time to "get to" our fliers. They used to average 3 weeks to print them. We need to have them finalized and sent to be printed by this time next week to ensure that we get them in time. We may get them really quick, which would be great, but I'd rather them sit around and collect a little dust than not be ready in time. Also worth noting is that I don't think we've ever posted fliers on campus more than a week ahead of time. Anything longer and they would typically be torn down by RA's or other clubs.
