Qualifier for the qualifier...
This weekend we attended the national event lanarena in hope to get a qualifier slot fot the national german qualifier in munich. For this lan the eswc intended 2slots for munich, so there was a good chance to get one of this! A-Losers also attended so we thought this weekend would be big fun and a lot of practise but it was the reverse. The 5on5 tournament was played by a-L, five teams which were really I mean really bad and us therefore the tournamend "could" be played in a few hours. The admins wanted to expand this in 3 days for entertainment reasons T_T? The tournament was very boring and not really competitive. Generally speaken: It was more than ridiculous to drive more than 1500km for this event. Cheeryo to the environment!

Hello to all bikers and motorsport-freaks out there,
my dad droved in his young years semi rally championship, so I grew up with motorsports. My first experience with motorsports was in the early 90s when my dad took me to several stockcar, speedway and rally races. At this time the impressions changed from astonishment to passion. My brother, my dad and me went to nearly 20-30 events a year and looked how my father droved those cars. We also helped setting up this cars/bikes so we all gained a lot of experience in that and I never forget the smell of the boiled hot oil, the heated engines and the exhaust gases. When I was old enough, I think it was 5 or 6, my dad bought me a little motocrossbike to learn how to drive, this was greater for me than all what I have been there before. I learned very quick so with my eight birthday I droved my first race not very competitive but with much dedication :). My mother was never on the tracks she always gots angry when my dad took us to those events and when she saw that my dad bought me a bike she freaks out and we leaved for about two weeks our home and we lived with my grandparents. When we leaved I knew the marriage of my parents is fucked up so the divorce is the logical conclusion. My addiction to motorsports never stopped and I counted the days to get my driving license, when I was 15 my first legal vehicle was a speedfight. I droved with this scooter in one year about 12.000km and at my next birthday I got a another license to drive 125ccm 40hp(ps) bikes so the decision was a Cagiva Mito 125 EVOVII. This was a really nice bike, it is built from several parts from Ducati and it looks like a small 998 it has hardly the same chassis. I`ve worked and tuned this bike for months by myself this was a great satisfaction because my two best friends also got one :). We worked saturday for saturday to keep up our bikes at the highest level. My friend pushed his mito so hard that he gots 50hp in a bike which weights only about 110kg, I even can remember the cagiva slogan "Cagiva Mito, the road burnes!", with our bikes this slogan was true. But everything got a negative side, we all had accidents and injuries because we always raced at the limit. We all grew old but the passion never approved. Nowadays me and my friends all got very strong bikes but we all drive more responsible then we did in the past. When we meet together we often talk and laugh about old stories and injuries but this ain`t funny if you had to feel the pain on your own. I`m glad and I thank my father doing this to me because if I wouldn`t driven long time before I started with big bikes - I would be dead. I guarantee if anyone got a bike with 180hp from the beginning without any experience, within two months he either wakes up in hospital or he`s six feet under and his friends can meet him on the gravejard.
This shouldn`t frighten people in case of motorsports but this is the reality. Please collect as much as experience you can and please didn`t make the mistake which I described.

slaughterhouse #13, the fiasco?
First of all I wanna introduce this event to all non-germans outside, www.mytsh.de]slaughterhouse[/url] is one of the biggest lan events in germany so everyone couldn`t wait starting in this tournament. The tsh volume 13 begins friday 30th of september till sunday 2nd of october.
impressions
This implied friday I had to work from 7am up till 16pm and I live approx. 700km away from this venue additionally I had to pick up tiXo in Frankfurt (a.M.) so at this day I spend about 10h in my car, god bless that Volkswagen is very comfortable, I drove from one traffic jam to the other. Me was very happy that tiXo was on board so we talked whole time about worthless stuff and had to laugh a lot. It was late night when we came up in the location I think it was right after midnight, I had an information that the tournaments would start at 22:30 so we expect the lowerbracket but when we came up the staff had suspended the tournaments to 2 am we started to set up our PC`s and have some drinks with the team. Couple of cocktails later I think it was saturday morning 5am the head administration cancelled the tournaments for this night and determined the start date to 9:30am. We decided that it`s not worth to sleep 2h, we planned to play our matches as early as possible and sleep saturday afternoon. It came like we all expected the tournaments started at 11am and so we played the whole saturday and far into the night. We had a lot of problems with the servers and the network, either we had temporarily 2min lag every second round or one of our mates crashed cause of the server. We tried to talk with the responsible admins but we assert that no one there has an idea how to set up a server, after long discussions and decisions we agreed to play on a private 1ghz duron server which only lags 1min every 3rd or 4th round instead of 2mins every 2nd, which is a powerful progress in my opinion ;). I hope you could imagine how dizzy I was after this long time without one minute of sleep, pan would say "..LOOK AT HIM he got the rocky mountains under his eyes, LOL.." I definitely love him! :). We played our last match vs. [url=www.qpool.biz sunday morning without sleep, our enemys wasn`t shure if they wanna play so I rush to the gas station and check out some Red Bull to woke up tiXo because he refuses playing with all avialable means. At this point the match flews like a movie right past me I hardly can´t remember if it was a win or a loss :))). After this match tiXo and I searched a suitable position to sleep we found a not noisy corner so I fall down like dead and slept about 10 hours. I even can remember that a guy named deLaY spents me a mattress and a blanket, THANKS MY FRIEND! We woked up sunday afternoon and directly dismantled our pc`s. sTeVe, tiXo and me hurried to MCD eating some waste after that we droved towards home. I had a lot of fun with my mates especially sTeVe, pan and tiXo and this was a great experiance for me, little expensiv but great ;o). I hope the slaughterhouse staff will work on their concept so that the next event will succeed!
p.s. I droved about 12h and when I fall into my bed monday morning I was very tired which hopefully everybody can understand :D.
