    Hmmm, I am from Australia & was keen to enter, but the conditions state:

    “Individual contestants must be legal residents of the United States or its territories”

    Maybe I can argue that Australia is a territory of the United States given the close personal friendship between our two leaders ? ;-)

    Wow, nice! Count me in!
    Nice to see Stride and Xfire support e-sports!
    I had not heard of Stride before.

    i have been to these events before and they are pretty darn fun. they also give away a ton of stuff, my friend won a sound card at one of the events recently, it is pretty sweet.

    Cool new gum. I would totally try.
    I have been on XFire for years now. Their events are a great opportunity to get pwned by the pros or get schooled in CS or BF2! LOL

    Looks cool. I played in previous events and they were a blast. Last time I even got to frag some of the 3D guys … method and moto are mine!

    Never heard of Stride before, hopefully I’ll win a year’s supply or i’ll have to go pick some up. See you there!

    I love these events even if I end up getting pwned all the time in CS! i wish more brands like stride would give us gamers the cahnce to play with the pros.

    Woooo I’m gonna love that one! I watch demos from these so called “pro gamers” from time to time and I think they’re overrated (understatement). I’m gonna show ‘em what’s a BOOM HEADSHOT!! so count me in!

    anyway really cool from Xfire. keep’em comin’ d00ds~

    XFire is great! I wish they had more events like that. I took part in the event for Intel a few weeks ago.
    Seems to be a good fit to see generalist brands talk to gamers that way.

    Yes, this r4wXx!

    A nice chance to play with really good players plus raffle plus the ladies… weeeeeeeeeeeeeee! :D
