Guess you can't underestimate the feeling of sleeping in a real bed and not straight on the concrete floor with a cheap sleeping bag! I was rather stupid and forgot to bring anything to sleep on at all.

Me and Raistlin drove into town yesterday and ate at "Max" before I left him on the bus station and turned north to my home town Örebro. That road is the worst one in Sweden I guess since every little inch of it is covered by Speed Cameras so you gotta be really careful!


I seriously wanted to get out of the car, bring out an axe from the trunk and cut down every single one of those once I passed one.

Delicious hamburger at Max....or?

Top Moments at Dreamhack


  • Meeting all GosuCrew you talked and worked with for a long time but not been able to put a face on.
  • The WarCraft tournament where KnofF is the most worthy winner you can ever find.
  • Rotterdams shoutcast during the finals on bigscreen.
  • TrackMania!!!! Funniest free game there is?!?!
  • The last night on O'Learys where Raistlin, Zivvi, vilda and me showed how people are supposed to be dancing.

    Worst Moments at Dreamhack


  • First night when I by mistake climbed up on some crew-girls mattress when I was sleeping. When I woke up by the fact that she and her friend was putting a flashlight in my face to see who I was I felt more ashamed than ever, rolled down from the mattress and pretended to be asleep.
  • The fact that I forgot to bring any sort of mattress at all to sleep on.
  • Losers Bracket final when an editorial girl from Dreamhack pulled all electrical cables in our crew room when we were hosting the game. Her excuse was "Why so angry? I putted it back again right away".

  • I've been trying SC2!
    Created 28th November 2008 11:27 (Updated: 28th November 2008 12:08)

    Today the fat crowd entered the building. And with them finally some heat! It has been awfully cold here.
    The tournaments also started out both in DotA and WC3 and they went very smoothly in my opinion, even though some people probably should reconsider before signing up if they not even know how to open the game...

    I just came back from the SC2 area were I got raped badly by a lame-ass terran with tanks all over the frikking map. StarCraft kind of gathers all bad sides of Warcraft and makes them valid, towers, camping, annoying your opponents to death is just part of the game. The graphic and gameplay otherwise is flawless and I'm sure people gonna love it when it finally launches!

    Me, Raistlin and Zivvi installed the great game named "Trackmania" and played against each other. It was kind of embarrassing to see Patrik and Rasmus lack of skill but it gave me at least a good laugh! ;)
    The game is free and is played on events such as WCG, download and try it!

    The opening ceremony today was kind of cool but a bit of an anticlimax once the hyped fireworks started! If you want see it for yourself there is a news about it on this very site.


    Opening Ceremony!


    Tournament!


    TrackMania!


    Good Night!

    Dreamhack Prep-day!

    Preparation Day!



    The Ride
    I'm the only one among the crew that are still awake and since I've got nothing better to do I can tell you all something about my day.
    Last night at 23:00 the guy I was supposed to co-ride with decided he had other things to do which forced me to take my own car without side-window (some shitkids broke it) and with crappy tires for snow. I did however make it here in one piece and was able to hook up with many of the cuties that work with GosuGamers.

    Work work...
    We haven't made very much use of ourself today, but we was able to conjure rules for the upcoming tournaments and familiarize ourself with this place. One thing I noticed was that this event has grown HUGE compared to the last time I was here, roughly 6 years ago.


    Raistlin starts the crew meeting - Vilda looks suspicious.


    Me to the left and Zivvi to the right.


    Vilda, Nesseman and Alak


    We'll have an internal StarCraft II tourney among GosuCrew on Saturday, looking forward to it!


    Someone forgot to disable the fire alarm when starting the smoke machines (it's a firetruck in the background) :)))))


    Our Crew Corner!


    Sorry for the bad quality of picture. They are taken with my cellphone, but both Raist and Zivvi brought real cameras so there will hopefully be better ones to look forward to!

    Ladder Season 4 Finals
    Created 27th November 2006 12:18 (Updated: 27th November 2006 19:28)

    Just arrived home from a stressful weekend were the the peak was watching the Ladder Season 4 Finals in Stockholm. However now when I am back here at Örebro my feelings are kind of mixed up with both joy and dissatisfaction concerning this event and maybe most, the outcome of it!

    First of all we could take a look at the top 6 that will arrive to Germany from this qualification:

    -Mouz|SaSe
    -SK.Insomnia
    -4K^Grubby
    -4K^ToD
    -SK.Fire
    -verGe.GLaiVe


    After a quick view you can establish that every single one of those 6 are real-pro gamers that have been into the scene for a long time, and really should deserve their spots. Thus I do not agree.
    If we take a look upon SK.Fire, a big icon in the German community, and how he choose to perform his matches you can quickly find a pattern. At least in 90% of the games he does a strategy that for some races at the moment are almost unbeatable. The word for this strategy is spelled towers.
    Every single game I watched this guy all I could see was: "tier2-bring-3-towers-on-AM-and-shitloads-of-peasants-strategy" - And it worked!
    Unfortunately I must say he is really good at this strategy but what I am worried about is that no one seemed to find a counter.

    Another guy who didn't make it to the top 6 but still messed up the standings good were 4K^Zeus. If you watch the third game between him and fnatic.Elakeduck on Echo Islands you will see how an elf that can't afford to lose can make himself unkillable, at least on certain maps. Zeus choose to stay within his base with the army for the whole game and only went out with his DH to make some harassment. The DH was not very successful and died once, TP'ed once, and even had to use a invulnerability potion once, but did this hurt Zeus? No. Echo Islands is a so small map that map control means nothing, even though Elakeduck could get almost every single creep his hero advantage did not favor him very much. There are just to few of the creep camps to make this kind of difference. When Elakeduck realized that Zeus would stay in the base he had the only option to expand, the problem was that the elf had built a lot of Ancients of Wars and simply just moved down and killed him with them and some talons. It didn't matter that he had lost his DH some times, or that he had less food, or not even that Elakeduck had got all the creeps. Zeus talons combined with the Ancients made him unstoppable and won him the game.

    Maybe some whine but you have to read this knowing that I am Orc player myself. This did however disturb me greatly.

    My meal with Elakeduck and Ciara at an overcrowded Burger King discussing the matches made me feel just sorry for my old team mate that all his practice was for no good against absolute cheese in my eyes.

    I gonna stop this entry with a quick thought Duck gave me. The first prize in this tournament is 10 000$. Blizzard payed every single players travel to Stockholm which is fair, but what they also did was to give all players three nights at one of the most expensive hotels in Stockholm, Hilton. Each night the prize were 1700 Swedish crones, around 200$. For twenty players this should be 600$*20 = 12 000$, just in Europe, for only the living!

    Most players said they could live in a lower-class hotel and take the subway to the café instead of taxi and add the extra money into the prize poll. Doesn't that sound logical? It should almost double it with only the money saved in Europe.

    But last of all, thanks Blizzard for putting effort into arrange an event like this. As many of the players said "This was probably the best arranged event ever".
