WCG: Draco and Yayba Going?

Posted by Lasse "Get.Enron" Engen 2 years ago

The Polish WCG is gathering money from sponsors and donators to send more people to the grand final in Chengdu, and they've already raised around $2300, in one day! Aiming for another $2000, with it's deadline on Tuseday the 5th of October, will they be able to send both Draco and Yayba along with GOsia to the Grand Finals this year?





Maciej Polak, or Raven as most of us know him as, informed us in our forums recently that they have started a fund raising for the Polish WCG, and have already gathered around $2300, and all of that was raised in just one day. As most of us know now already, ToT member GOsia, also known as ParanOid, won the National WCG in Poland and will be granted a ticket to Chengdu, but there's room for two more players in the grand final, the runner-ups; Draco and Yayba.

Our plan is to send all three of them, as we do believe that this might be our very last chance to see Starcraft: Brood War on WCG

- ESC.Raven

The only problem is the money, WCG Poland can't afford sending all three of them, even they're allowed to. And based on that, Raven and Co. started this fundraising. The players who are sent this way will be wearing t-shirts with the sponsors on them during the event.

Thumbs up, Draco?

Raven explains that the community helped him get to the grand final in Monza, Italy, three years ago, and he wants to give something back;

This is how one of my biggest dreams came true back then. Coordinating this project, I feel I can pay back this credit of trust somehow.

GosuGamers wish Raven and the Polish community the best of luck, and hopefully communities in other countries as well will follow his footsteps and this great initiative. Read the forum linked below for instructions and more information.

Very nice from Raven to make platform for opportunity that these gamers feel WCG's "Beyond the game" feeling

Best of luck to them

I'm always happy to see more european players on WCG. Perfect work by Raven as always! I'd like to give some money too, but I'll save it for CZ-SK WCG donations, cause it looks bad this year. Good luck!

Its great thing and as i read somewhere on netwars.pl in Raven's post EACH COUNTRY HAVE RIGHT TO SEND 3 PLAYERS FOR EACH GAME TO FINAL
I think that should be spread out since i wasnt aware of that like probably many more people around.
Every year i feel like some exelent players are missing and some of them could go with help of sponsors like we hope Yayba and Draco this year.

#25 Maybe you did, i dont really read forum, I dont remember that info posted on news or practice much :(

#25 yeah, it's like every year everyone posts about 3 spots available but not all sponsored and yet noone seems to read this. People are really blind.

BTW great initiative, hope some other countries would try such initiatives as well

Draco bears so much responsibility on his shoulders now, I hope he doesn't make us disappointed.

Good luck, such love doesn't appear much in other countries.

We will make it, there is no other scenario :)

Thank you all folks, who donated via PayPal so far- around 60 USD landed on our account from you / people from TL.net. Not a fortune, but as we mentioned already - each cent counts!

Hello guys,

Just so you know, we finished the raising funds and will be able to send both players it seems. Thank you all who donated, your input is very appreciated.

I will try to post some sort of summary and t-shirt design after I finish counting cash collected from you.

Kind regards,
Maciej / Raven
