So, in case anyone needs it in the future, here's how you get there (Shijingshan): 1. Take subway line 1 and get off on the Bajiao Amusement Park station. Exit B. 2. Take one of the following buses: 337, 941 or 663. 3. Get off on the next station. 4. Cross the road, go downstairs. Here you are.

delays in china? impossible. I remember they organized the best WCG ever with no delays and even some matches a few minutes before official schedule

I don't understand why people act like starting before schedule is a good thing. It sucks, people miss matches because of that and it is annoying for players too to suddenly start 30 minutes earlier.

it wasn't 30 minutes :p. Some matches started 5, maybe 10 minutes before schedule and probably none of them were delayed.
