A SteelSeries employee suffering a memory loss, a rodent culprit, missing cheese, stolen candy, and a long lost SteelSeries SP mousepad surfaces. Turmoil at the SteelSeries office. What happened, and how you can win yourself the recovered mousepad signed by SK.Miou - inside of this news. Thanks to fragyou.net, the revived SteelSeries blog for providing this unique prize!What we know so far:
When the culprit, who stole 250g of Denmark's finest cheese and four inconceivably delicious candy bars from the SteelSeries refrigerator was identified as "Ronny the Rodent", our brave friend and SteelSeries Employee of the Month Casper Mejlholm was sent to the basement of the office. Primary objectives of his mission were set to capture Ronny the Rodent alive, and to recover all of the stolen goods. Pretty easy job for a guy like him you might think - but what actually happened down in the holy vault should be beyond anyones imagination.
Casper is known as a fearless and brave soldier when it comes to missions like this, that's why Kim chose him for the job. Getting his cheese back, and capture Ronny the Rodent, his long time archenemy, he would have paid millions of dollars to make it happen. Too many open tabs, too many times Ronny had escaped before. Kim was sure, this was his very last raid, the final appearance of the tiny crawler. He had his best man down there, dozens of traps set up, no way for Ronny the Rodent to escape. The more surprised he was when Casper returned after 50 minutes, pale as a sheet and obviously in utter shock. No mouse, no candy, no cheese. All Casper brought back from the dark and creepy basement was a SteelSeries SP, the long lost mousepad SK.Miou had signed a while ago.
What had happened? Up to now, Casper is suffering a memory loss of the things that happened down there. He needs your help! If you got any idea what happened down in the basement of the SteelSeries office befor Casper returned, leave a comment in this news, including your version of events. Help Casper fight his amnesia!
Casper promised to ship the mousepad to the person who helps him recovering his memory, so be creative and come up with a cool story!
Here's a short description of the prize:
"This mousepad, along with a bunch of other autographed products, were signed a couple of months ago by our sponsored teams for a charity auction and we ended up having a few leftovers. Miou signed two gaming surfaces whereof one of them was sold on Ebay for the acution – which means that this is the very last sample.
Here are some images of the product, while your at it, also check out SteelSeries revived blog at www.fragyou.net.

Ronny the Mouse was just watching a Spawn movie and read bout his replacement. Mad bout spawn retire the mouse was searching a place where to put its anger. Casper was the enemy. Ronny the Mouse (the mouse was a wc3 player who beated Miou for that mousepad wich you will send to me because of that story) challenge Casper in wc3 match- the winner tooks home the Miou mousepad! Then with a lot of luck Casper won !!!! Ronny the Mouse was SO MAD that he get a big wooden stick like WoW ones and hitted Casper on the head. Then you know what happened :}
As he walks on going to the vault he heard a strange noise, he pass along the traps Kim and him set up,he opened the door and went in and the door just shut! very loud, Casper face was so scary and he jumped hit his head off the ceiling(ceiling was very low).He continued walking and searching for the thing he gotta find, opened the boxes and chest that he'd seen,but its not there.....
He came with this very old chest and pick the lock,he couldn't open it,it was completely sealed,he smiled! and thought the cheese is there,after 20min. finally he opened the chest,and his smiled was just completely gone just like a wind passed over,because the cheese wasn't there.He walk along... along... along.... and seen a wee tiny hole,he crawl and put his left eye on the hole to see whats in there,He slowly move his head to the hole and he seen Ronny the mouse and his plan, Ronny got a shotgun filled with cheese and fired it over to Casper's eyes!!! Casper moan because of pain, he ran and can only see with his one eye,by not looking underneath the floor hes running,he got trapped! It was some pebbles on the floor Casper slide all around and seen Ronny laughing and shaking his butt to Casper. Casper was stunt nearly fell when he stand, he continued to ran and seen a black thing and thought it was a cloth , he opened the door with out noticing the traps, he ran up the stairs and fell head him to hit the trap stucks to his nose, and screams as hes think hes dying,he took it off and walk to Kim's table as if nothing happens,Kim asked, what happened to you,seems very pale and very scared
Casper: nothing,very long story ill tell you later
Kim: no tell me now! i want to know, whats that in your hand.
Casper: A cloth to wife my face
Kim: Its not! let me see it (Casper hand it in), Its a SteelSeries SP !!! omg! look isnt that Miou signature?
Casper: holy! oh yes indeed!... i though it was a cloth dumped in there.
The victim: Delicious cheese and sweet candy everyone would love
The suspect: Ronny the Mouse
The executioner: Casper, the fearless solider
Now, what botheres me with this scenario is: Why would a mouse want a candy? Mice normally eat cheese, cheese, and more cheese. A mouse who likes candys is harder to find than Bill Gates in an Apple store! And Casper, in all of his perfection stood up as noble young man that he is, to capture the evil mouse.
Clearly what happend here is that Ronny the Mouse planned this complicated action for quite some time now... but he knew that he couldnt do this alone... he needed somebody... someone who is "trusty insider"... someone like... Casper!
Now persuading Casper to help Ronny the Mouse wasn't actually as hard as one would think. You would be surprised what are people ready to do for a piece of a nice candy! So, from this point on the practicly resolves itself. Ronny the Mouse stole cheese and candy and as of that point he had a ticket out. He knew that Kim was going to pick Casper to go after him, and as he also knew that he had no chance agains Casper, as previously mentioned, he involved him early in the planes.
Casper then "went to capture the goods and Ronny the Mouse" in the darky basemant, but what actually hapend there is that Ronny the Mouse simply gave Casper his candy, chilled little with him down there as they both enjoyed tasty food. Afterwards, Casper faked a "memory loss" to make Kim think he had nothing to do with it. "Surprisingly" nobody can explain where Ronny the Mouse is or what happend to the tasty food.
If you dont belive me ask Casper how did that candy-paper get into his pocket?
Clearly much easier than many people thought :)
Anyways, when Casper got down the stairs holding only a flashlight as protection the 'little' (He is more like Arnold Swarchenegger in his good ol' days) mouse a.k.a. Ronny tried roundhouse kick Casper from behind as his master, Chuck Norris, would've done. But Casper, being the elite soldier he is, quickly dodged that roundhouse kick and took position of a 'Three-point stance clothesline'. Ronny had no other choice but to quickly pull the Memory-eraser, which he had stolen from the awesome 'Men In Black', and flash Caspers memory back to hell. Casper fell down and fell asleep.
When Casper woke up, he found himself lying in a pool of drool together with a mousepad signed by SK.Miou.
He also found a post-it note ontop of his head that said "lolwtfpwnt by RoNnY thE mouSe,,-)"
And there it is, the amazing story of Ronny, Casper, Candy and Arnold Swarchenegger!
Enjoy! ; )
- Well thats it, sorry about the bad english but i`m Bulgarian :)

Across the vault sat a white figure, almost indistinguishable in the dust that had polluted the air over the years. Although small, Ronnie the Rodent had a reputation for being deadly and was feared by the majority of civilization, but not Casper.
The tensions mounted as the two sworn enemies stood meters from each other, single minded. "How can I defeat this guy?"
With the taste of sweat on his tongue, Casper's grip tightened around the huge blade in his hands, all the time his stare did not falter. Ronnie bore a sword no bigger than a sewing needle yet stood defiant, gazing right back into the jet black pupils of his assailant.
Simultaneously the two began their epic fight which would decide the fate of more than just the two individuals, it would decide the fate of an entire generation!
Casper's sword sped through the dusty air straight towards the little mouses head with enough force to cut through a solid granite boulder, yet somehow it came to a halt just inches from it's target. A translucent bubble of golden, almost unbearable, light had surrounded Ronnie and absorbed the blow. Casper was left speechless as the little mouse stood, expressionless. Had he even realized what just happened?
In an instant, the expressionless face screwed up in anger. Razor sharp teeth met their counterparts below as the mouse slammed them tight. The tiny sword rose above his head. A blue glow at its tip soon became a fully fledged light source, brighter still than the divine shield, before exploding into a dome shaped are of energy.
Casper was knocked back towards the stairwell he had descended just minutes earlier where he landed in a disgruntled heap. Upon regaining himself he realized that Ronnie was in fact a great mage of the era and had just attacked him with a good deal of his rage. Casper was lucky to be alive.
Although the ultimate treasures, cheese and candy, were not recovered from the dungeon raid, Casper had completed a secondary quest and was awarded a rare Steel Series SP (Signed by Miou) and would return to Kim Ron. Who, if anyone, would be able to return the cheese and candy to its rightful owner before Ronnie is able to use them for his own evil obsession.... playing CS all day and eating junk!
WORLD OF STEEL SERIES: RETURN OF THE MAGI IS HERE!
The few faces in the room turned and gave Kim a look. Kim returned them with a glare one by one. SpawN, Carmac, Zechs, TheSlaSH and bds turned to stare at each other, raising an eyebrow.
"What's wrong?" asked TheSlaSH, deciding to break the silence.
"A few hours ago I left a few candy bars made from SteelSeries and some pretty decent cheese in the fridge, and apparently either they happen to be reincarnations of Houdini or someone took it," Kim replied coldly. "Because it's gone."
"But nobody went anywhere near the fridge," said Zechs. "It couldn't be any of us"
"So you're saying that they just teleported out of here?" Kim shifted his glare to Zechs.
"Oh come on, who on earth could just walk past a group of people without anyone noticing?" bds exclaimed.
Silence. Then all of a sudden, everyone turned to stare at SpawN.
"This is not what it seems like," he started to say as he suddenly realised why. (*Don't understand? Go to the bottom of the story)
"Did anyone bother to read the note left on top of the fridge?" Carmac rolled his eyes.
Kim turned around and, sure enough, there was a piece of paper lying on top of the fridge. He picked it up and was surprised to find that it was old, almost tearing and turning yellow from age. The script was close to being unintelligible, almost like it was reading some foriegn language. Oh wait, it is.
"Anyone fluent in gibberish?" Kim asked, passing the note around.
As the note was passed between hands, no one was able to tell what the note said. Till SpawN got it in his hands.
"It's Swedish," he said with mild surprise.
"What does it say?" Everyone jumped out of their seats and circled around SpawN, all caught up in this strange mystery.
"Sorry SK. Couldn't resist the cheese. And dessert happened to be right beside it, so hey, why not? Ronny." He read out carefully, stammering over a few words that were hard to decipher.
"Who's Ronny?" they started asking each other, all confused by the unknown thief.
"I told you we should stop hiring so many players!" compained Carmac, "Now we can't even keep track of them!"
But no one noticed Kim staring at the note which he held in his hand. His fist tightened and teeth met with a low clap. Then, he walked slowly back to his seat, picking up his phone and dialling a few numbers rapidly.
"Casper? Ronny's back."
__________________________________________________
Casper choked as he tried to take a deep breath. He'd been climbing down for only minutes, but the atmosphere was completely different from the comfortable SK office. "Capture Ronny, find the cheese and candy bars, then get the hell out of there," he remembered Kim's orders.
Kim had explained the situation for him, "Ronny the rat was a problem that we hadn't been told about when we set up our Headquarters here. He stole our food, he stole our clothes, he even stole our gaming equipment."
"A rat stole gaming equipment?" Kim asked, gaping in shock.
"Hey, you don't stop anyone else from buying an Ikari to play CS or WoW, do you? I couldn't care less if he played Neopets, but that's different when he starts to take our equipment. So it took a long time for us to stop him, since he lived right below us and could dig small holes everywhere and make his way around unseen. But slowly we blocked up the holes, found his lair and set up traps everywhere. And I mean [i]everywhere[/i].
We thought we had scared him away, because he stopped appearing, and our belongings stopped disappearing. Unfortunately though, that cheese that I left there seemed to be enough for him to risk his life one more time." Kim paused for a moment, and stared Casper in the eye. "Now, I want you to make him pay."
"Don't I get any kind of help at all?" Casper asked. Capturing a mouse wouldn't be hard, but then again Ronny could've lived in the underground tunnels for years. Casper could get lost inside the labyrinth forever without even smelling Ronny.
Kim took out a rolled up piece of paper and threw it to Casper. He caught it deftly and unrolled it, almost choking after reading the title written in bold, ancient-looking script.
"Scroll of Town Portal"
"This is a joke, right?" Casper looked at Kim.
"It's a prototype. We worked with SteelSeries and AMD on this. The idea was that we'd give each SK player one whenever they travel overseas to play. Simply read press the last letter of the scroll, and you'll be back in your house. Instant travel savings, minus the credit card debts." Kim introduced the product proudly.
Then his voice turned a little more deflated. "There're a few glitches though. So far we could only configure it to the SK office, and also there's that thing about memory loss..."
"Memory loss, are you saying..." Casper started to protest.
"Don't worry. Years ago we set up traps to capture Ronny underground. We just activated them a few minutes ago, and one of them seem to have caught something. Last I heard Ronny's the only thing that moves down there. Just walk over to him, grab his finger and place it on the button, and we've got him. Plus, the user will go through some physical draining too, so we can handle him, no problem."
"Yeah, sure, no problem..." Casper groaned as he followed the map towards the blinking dot on his iPhone. It was supposed to lead him to the trap where Ronny was captured.
A few turns around the corners, and there the trap was. He saw a figure of a large rat there, and he gapsed as he saw the size of it. Beside lay the stolen cheese and candy bars. He gave himself a little smile, pleased at how easy his task was, when all of a sudden a rock hit him in the back of the head.
He gave a cry of agony, as it hurt alot. He turned around, only to meet face to face with a rat's face. He froze in fear of the horrible sight.
Ronny wasn't just a rat. He was a big rat. Towering at 6 feet 7 inches, he easily filled the tunnel with his broad shoulders. His teeth were grown sharp and long, protruding out of his mouth, and his eyes were bloodshot and bulging. Hanging from his belt were a few items that looked familiar to Casper. Then all of a sudden he realised.
Black King Bar. Cranium Basher. Heart of Tarrasque. Buriza-do Kyanon. Divine Rapier. Lothar's Edge.
Lothar's Edge. So that's how he got to the fridge unseen. As for the other items, does that mean they work as well?
Casper didn't wait to find out. He ran round the corner, hearing Ronny's bloody-curdling laughter. He stumbled over the uneven floor, and could hear Ronny's heavy but increasingly loud footsteps follow behind. His mind was racing thinking of only one thing, "Where can I hide, where can I hide?"
All of a sudden, he ran past a door in the side of the tunnel. He saw that there was a lock, but it was opened. He didn't hestitate and ran in immediately, shutting the door behind him. When he turned around, he gasped yet again.
Mountains of random items lay in front of him. Keyboards, CRTs, flyers, whole computers - he couldn't believe his eyes. Trudging over to a pile next to him, he picked up an item to have a look when all of a sudden Ronny burst through the door.
He dreaded his only choice as he considered it, running around a pile of the stash Ronny had built up, out of sight. Pulling the Scroll out of his pocket, he saw Ronny had spotted him out of the corner of his eye. He had no time to waste. He ran his finger over the button, and Ronny lunged with his Rapier, aiming right for the jugular...
White. Then, nothing.

Mountains of random items lay in front of him. Keyboards, CRTs, flyers, whole computers - he couldn't believe his eyes. Trudging over to a pile next to him, he picked up an item to have a look. A mousepad, but pretty dirty, he though as he brushed off the dirt. As he removed the layers of dirt, he slowly uncovered a part of the mousepad where there seemed to be writing on it...
He worked harder, faster, and soon saw that it was actually a signature. Reading it, he saw the word "Miou".
"Hm," he said to himself. "Signed by Miou eh. Wonder who that is."
Ronny burst through the door.
Staying cool, he dreaded his only choice as he considered it, running around a pile of the stash Ronny had built up, out of sight. Pulling the Scroll out of his pocket, he saw Ronny had spotted him out of the corner of his eye. He had no time to waste. He ran his finger over the button, and Ronny lunged with his Rapier, aiming right for the jugular...
White. Then, nothing.
