Hello,
As you may or may not know, there are increasing number of 1.6 and Source players who are transitioning to CSGO in Lebanon, most of which have contacted me via Steam through previous posts on this forum.
Now I managed to contact a freshly opened gaming lounge in Beirut that is interested in hosting a CSGO Tournament, and plans are set in motion to make the tournament an actual thing. Now before any futher announcements or news, we need a headcount on anyone who is interested and able to participate in the tournament to see if it can be realized or not. Think of it as a statistical survey to see how much people would be interested and willing to participate in a CSGO LAN tournament (since CSGO unlike LoL doesnt need a connection to a server and can be hosted on a LAN environment with close to 0 ms latency).
-You need to own the game on Steam in order to be able to play or atleast know someone who is able to borrow you his account so you can log in and play it in the tournament (especially for 1.6 and Source veterans who dont own CSGO on Steam)
-Whoever is interested and is willing to join such an event just comment on this post saying so.
-It would be deeply appreciated if an admin of this forum would sticky this post for everyone to see.
As a final note, its always nice to see people helping out and see the eSports scene in Lebanon grow, the more people show interest in it the more it would be a suitable investment for sponsors and gaming lounges.
If you have any suggestions or question or any way to help, feel free to comment below, PM me or add me on Steam on the following URL:

Note that pirated version of the game wont work, you need to own it legitimately on Steam.
