hmm, idd just pick up the RA and the mega and keep control over the cheques. Or just grap the cheques and strafe jump out the event?

cooller smart, he got a cushionll!

That quite annoyed me actually. At the start of the tournament we were told we couldnt use any kind of pillow or cushion despite the chairs being too low for the table. Also we weren't allowed to move the tablecloths even though they were covered in seams and badly ironed so there were folds and creases everywhere. People with soft pads had major problems. I had to smuggle in a huge book I found nearby and put it under my mousepad, otherwise the mouse would just get stuck every few centimeters.

I guess that further into the tournament they gave way and allowed people cushions and to not play on the uneven tablecloths, but like I say a lot of people were very annoyed.

wow... the rules sound harsh, silly and for what reason too?

I brought up the video of you all sitting in front of your computers gaming, and my girlfriends first response was "Those seats look horrible, that's not good at all."

She said you guys need her, she's a massage therapist. I imagine we'll both be at the next event so we'll see you there.

True about needing the right chair ... I kept getting bad back/shoulder pains until I spent some cash and got a decent chair that was adjustable.

Now what was that about your gf being a massage therapist ;)

well bony russian asses probably can't handle the chairs well :D

wow.. that fat guy got boobs on his back!

LMAO!

isnt it FATality?

Welcome to the CPL., the greatest gamer's show on earth bringing you two guys sitting on the same chairs as the spectators, performing their arts on a stage kept together with duct tape (was there a terrorism allert?) being cheered by a fat guy and people with bad hair cuts. Don't you miss the grandeur of WCG or ESWC when you see these pictures? Come on Mr Munoz, you can do better than this.

I can honestly say I wasn't disappointed at the display myself being more engrossed in the actual game, although you obviously have a good point and it's a poor show for an outsider. In their defence I would say that this was a 'small' event that only became large because of the charismatic Quake 4 competition, it was not meant to be in the same league as their World Tour and other major-league tournaments where they do have impressive stage setups.

You're being too nice again! ;P

i have been to cpl summer and believe me, it wasnt that much bigger at all. okay they had a stage then, but it was nothing compared to wcg or eswc.

I've seen nice stage setups from CPL, or was that mainly World Tour stops?

maybe. i havent been to any of the stops, so i cant say much about that

The black sign in the bottom right of the first picture says CPL Summer Qualifier...that might be the reason.

Agreed. In fact, I go so far as to say the entire presentation should be done in-game. Spectators should not be there to see a couple of people sitting at computer desks. They should be there to watch the game itself. That's where the show is. That's what people spend years refining... people don't spend years refining the way they look sitting at computer desks.

Is that a purple icemat that toxic is using?

What's with the keyb @ lap? How can cooller play that way??? :D

Try it. I find it more comfortable.

i do it coz my big ass monitor takes all the room on my desk :)

Cooller looks very relaxed when he plays, which i guess is vital. Toxic is all stiff and robotic.

ye he got so much 1on1 tourney experiance and so used to winning that he dosnt seem nervouse at all compared to toxic who i guess is used to mostly tdm tourneys when you arnt alone on the big stage =P

its the russian style, kinda relaxing once learned!!

nice pillow ^_^
