Also provide a suggestion for the prize you’d like from them.

Assuming we don’t want strictly console prizes, such as mp3 players and the like..

 

could add;

 

Creative Labs: http://www.creative.com

 

but other console prize sponsors could include

 

Nyko http://www.nyko.com (Various accessories)

Mad Catz http://www.madcatz.com (Various accessories)

How about Logitech? They don’t provide sound devices only so it wouldn’t interfere with our SteelSeries sponsorship, would it?

[Oh Malley]

Yeah. Logitech makes some quailty wireless accessories for various systems. So I don’t see why not.

Could also check with Hewlett Packard and IBM.

[Fascist Flakes (Jagr)]

HP and IBM are not necessarily gaming companies and probably will not sponsor a LAN event, not to mention for consoles. Because consoles are primarily dependent on the company that produces them (Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo) they are ridiculous to find sponsors for. Luckily more companies are able to develop devices and games for the consoles.

 

One can just go to http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList….mp;N=2062760000 and gather a list of consoles as well as accessories and the companies developing the accessories.

[Oh Malley]

The only other thing I could suggest is see if some developer would be willing to give us a copy a game for free. you know.. play it at the tourney or whatever get exposure. and winner gets a copy.

 

Or have RedOctane sponsor us and winner gets a copy of Guitar Hero. x.x It’s all I really want. Other than H3.

[Adam Faulkner]

Can we assume someone is offering finding and communicating with these sponsors?

[Oh Malley]

Kuros asked me before to make a list.. so I’m simply opening that up to more suggestions.

 

If need be, I’ll try and get in touch.

[Adam Faulkner]

we can always use the help. Ask kuros for the rundown to help.

[Kuros]

I’m going to combine consoles into one council leader that’s club active. This will help me out A LOT come LAN time. I can’t keep doing it ALL by myself. It’s getting too big to moderate 12 tournaments with one person.

[Oh Malley]

So yeah.. this thread kinda faded fast. But it is necessary. Also looking for input from any new active console players.

[Falcon]

whoever it is that makes those ‘gaming chairs’ – the ones that sit on the floor? maybe get them?

[Phonetically Phamous (dice]

yeah those rocker chairs kick *edited*,, and they may send them to demo…

 

but big on shipping so prob needs to be local… but never hurts to try

[Fascist Flakes (Jagr)]

REDOCTANE!!!!

[ChaosWolf]

Accessorize. Those companies are probably the best bet for hope for sponsering. The game companies probably wont find it worth their time. Being out in the middle of bfe is going to make for no easier of a task.

[Fascist Flakes (Jagr)]

RedOctane sponsor’s app’s lans so we should easily be able to get them as well.
