I've managed to turn my diurnal rhythm up an down, waking up at 17:00 and going to bed at 05:00. Even if I like it, being up at night doing work at GosuGamers it's still not that healthy for me. I need the daylight. I can feel it already. But now the time is 03:11, and I have finished what must be my fourth of fifth cup of hot chocolate at our new office, and I have written four newsposts today and fiddled around with GosuBets and the two player databases (StarCraft and WarCraft 3). I took the bus, as I live quite far away from the center. I do the daily routine of checking through the community sites, clan sites, yellowchrome.org links (thanks Entropy) and the profiles of the top WarCraft 3 teams at WC3L and NGL-ONE. Hopefully you find something very tasty and interesting to write about. Once you find something, and you have the concept ready, it's time to do the background search. Check for possible playeres or managers online for statements, run through various history logs and old articles about the certain subject. Luckily (or unluckily, depends on your mood), I found that Christopher 'Ego1st' Suhr at MeetYourMakers had beat me to it and found that Soccer had joined wNv. wNv is with no doubt the most talented team in the WC3L qualifier, and actions concerning them is always interesting. The second newspost was three new additions to the team Kings of WarCraft 3. They picked up SouthSea (former Clan ONE), Winners (former ASUS) and Fivestar (former PG.IT). Sadly for them they could not play in the WC3L qualifier match against Cubesports earlier tonight. That's part of the rules at WC3L, players are barred for a week or so before they can be used. And it turned out to be a real nailbiter, as Cubesports were in the lead for a while, but in the end Kow3 took home the win. I wonder, would SouthSea, Winners and Fivestar still stayed put in the team if Kow3 lost? Sadly, this happens very often during WC3L. Call it silly season, as the other sports magazines call it. I then turned my head towards StarCraft, where BWCL announced their 12 teams. And of course the big question was - where is Templars of Twilight? The team who for a very long time has been the undisputed top team in the non-Korean scene is not included. However, there are other very interesting teams, as well. There's BossClub who won the recent WGTCL Season, and the FragBet League. Strelok, White-Ra, Shaman and Satanik is an awesome lineup, and they have quite a number of other players to back them up. Last time I checked their roster count they had over 40 members. Bartar does a great job taking care of his squad as they are active in basically every clanleague there is. Although I'm very much against that the organization BossClub sponsors the league and still have their team playing in it. There's also oGaming.rA who we haven't seen in the top leagues for quite a while. I'm good friends with two of their managers, Freezer and Tobi (zoxxer). I wish them and the team best of luck. Then there's the classic teams such as Czech Demolition Squad, MicroGamerZ, Shock Squadron and All Aggression ProTeam. And of course not to forget MeetYourMakers. If MYM uses their top lineup in this league they they can definitely take this home. Even against BossClub. Draco, Pj, Lx, Advokate and F91 is a lineup few teams can take down. Though I would like to see SarenS in action. I met him at WCG 2006, and he was a friendly guy. Last but not least I wrote that Satiini will not be attending the Battle.Net Season 4 Ladder Europe Regionals. Apparently his reason for not showing up at several events in the past was because of some sort of claustrophobic sickness. I think it was strong of him to 'out' himself like that in the very immature community that exists in the WarCraft 3 scene. Props to him. Now, I think I'm going to play some more Footmen Frenzy together with brankan and Lancia. Toodlz. | |||||||||||||||||||

Today I woke up at 15:00 with Mazor entering my room and yells on me that we need to buy some food. Staggering up and eating the last pieces of bread, then off to Gottsunda Centrum. Felt weird to go shopping first thing in the "morning", while people living normally went home from work. After buying some food and stuff we went to the office, and I've been sitting here ever since. We had both good and bad feedback on the Database ranking. Most importantly is that it is out now and that people discuss about it. It can only get better from here. Tomorrow I'm thinking of going down to visit my girl, and then going home to the city of Bara to meet the folks. Though I haven't bought a ticket or anything as of yet, but I really want to go. I miss her! Hmm, the last bus has passed by, and I have no car. Guess I'll have to walk, or maybe call Mazor up to come and get me. :D Nice to see that many bloggers already! Keep 'em coming! | |||||||||||||||||||

Why is it so that the bed I have feel much softer in the morning than in the night? I woke up at half past eleven and walked to the fridge to find we barely had anything to eat. After being in Borås in four days for organizing the WonderBase tournaments did not really allow to have that much stuff in the fridge. But I managed to find some eggs, so I made myself an omelet. I was ready for school and went with the GG car to pick up Mazor at his girlfriend's place. The car pounding with Linkin Park on the way there, as well as to our way to school. Just a lecture about telling technique. Two hours long, and I was so tired. I tried to pay attention and really focus, but closing my eye-lids and rest was so tempting. After school we went to the office and I started working almost immediately. Posted some newsposts, set the winners on a couple of matches that were still pending. Found out that hoorai actually lost to both Clan Go and SK-Germany. Also, as my GosuBet section tells me, Clan Go lost against SK-Germany. Down to 0 again. Dang. After some more newsposting I spent most of the day/night adding results from the WC3L season (individual games). I then felt that it was time to present the GosuGamers Rankings for the WarCraft section. We have had it for StarCraft for a bit more than a year now, but we did not have enough bets and results for the WarCraft 3 Ranking to be released monthly. However now I feel it makes quite a nice overview on how the Top 30 looks like, give or take. I mean, it is impossible to add all the matches. We add matches from the biggest leagues and tournaments, such as WCG, ESWC, WEG, WC3L, inCup and such. Next month's ranking will be even better, as I intend to add all the matches so far from the NGL-One season. I'm not sure for how long we will stay here today. greykarn is doing an all-nighter, though I don't think we will do the same. Well well, that is all for now in the first blog from Raistlin. I've been wanting GG to have blogs for soooo long now, so I guess I will have to live up to my promise to write interesting and lengthy blogs. I don't really count this one as one, though. | |||||||||||||||||||

Du måste skriva CET på dina nyhets posts. Du kan inte bara skriva 04:00 och tro att folk ska förstå att det är CET.
tycker du också om DragonLance böcker? :)
