As SK Insider keeps ticking along and consistently improving, it's time to reflect on what has gone on and changed recently with SK Insider in June 2009.TOURNAMENT
Another month has past for SK Insider and a lot of things have happened in that time, most notably SK Insiders' first tournament of the new era.
A 2on2 tournament was the format of choice and it was a pretty heated tournament with a lot of talented players, in the end the team of AIM41 which consisted of Neophyte and _NIKITA were victorious, bagging themselves a SteelSeries 5hv2 headset and 30 days of SK Insider for each of them.
Community Night
On Tuesday, June the 23rd SK Insider hosted it's second Community Game Night from 8 until 11 CET, many gathers were played and the SE CSDM Server was consistently full as all five SK Sweden players flooded the servers and allowed the Insiders a chance to play with them. Over 30 players were consistently playing on the servers, making them very active and enjoyable for the Community Game night.
APP Ranking
After another month of playing on the servers the Insiders were able to win prizes related to APP, coming in first this month was blaster with a very high 126,557 APP points who managed to grab an Icemat Siberia Headset and 30 days of free SK Insider. The top five all received 30 days of SK Insider also. For a full run down of all the prizes won for the month of June, refer to the winners page here.
Demos
SK Gaming competed in a few tournaments of note in the past month, most notably the KODE5 Grand Finals, ESWC Cheonan and the Dreamhack Summer 2009, following great finishes in each tournament, the SK Players also recorded demo's from these events allowing SK Insiders to enjoy watching the matches from a different perspective, and possibly gaining new insight into tactics and how to improve your game. Also of note is that our female Counter-Strike team is continuing participation in the ESEA league and the many in-eye demos you can view from that tournament as well as the HLTV demos from these events. You can find the demos checking out the Insider page. Read below to see a few picks of this month's demos.

Here is just a selection of a few of the more interesting questions asked to the SK players:

■ To Tentpole: Were you aware of GeT_RiGhT's attempt of a High 5?

July 2009
The month of July promises to have even more tournaments, prizes and new features. In July we will be hosting an Aim Map Tournament and also a KZ Tournament, which promises to offer a wide range prizes for the SK Insiders. Be sure to look for a news post stating details for both of these tournaments soon. Also of note for the month of July is that the community game night will be continuing thanks to its popularity among the insiders. These tournaments are hosted bi-weekly which we promise will get better and better with each night, with more players playing, and a broader selection of screenshots and demos, amongst other things to be seen after the event is finished.
As usual there will be new demos added regularly, including more requested demos, such as mixes and gathers, amongst other things. As always keep an eye out on the SK Insider page and news posts detailing further updates and surprises, not everything has been detailed in this news post and hopefully you will all be pleasantly surprised with some of the upcoming changes we have in store for you. We hope you are enjoying SK Insider and continue to enjoy it, as well as the new updates and content that we will bring you.
