   Player Chronicle -- Posted on Apr 17 2012

   I've recapped TIPGC 2012 extensively over on www.TIPGC.com, so that's why you haven't seen much of a write up around here, but in short, TIPGC 2012 went BIG.
   
   As the third annual TIPGC, We had over 550,000 online viewers, tuning in to Twitch.TV to watch over 500 players from over 15 different states, compete for over $10,000. The MW3, Gear of War 3, and Halo Reach action was awesome...which makes this Chronicle that much more exciting...
   
   UGC Niagara is our company's first international video game event!
   
   We're heading to Canada for the event, which is May 5-6. We're basically bringing the TIPGC concept on the road for the first time. Obviously, this makes for quite the challenge, but I think our team has developed a concept we're able to implement anywhere, so it's been fun promoting to a whole new community of Toronto, Ontario, and other Canadian gamers.
   
   With 4v4 MW3, 4v4 Gears of War 3, and o so Canadian...2v2 NHL 12...I can't wait to give away up to $30K and see this venue that right on Niagara Falls. This event is also for a school district who's developing the concept as a long-term fund-raiser, so the event being for education is a good cause that's also neat to be affiliated with.
   
   If you live in the east coast, have a passport, and want to join us in a few weeks, check out www.UGCNiagara.com or jump into the @UGCNiagara chatter on Twitter. Online registration ends April 29th, 2012. If you can't make it, tune all weekend for a live stream presentation I almost guarantee you'll enjoy.
   
   See you in Canada, EH?!
