The already infamous worldwide federation of gaming will feature on DJWheat's LO3 show on Sunday evening.DJWheat, Slasher and the whole crew will be taking to the airwaves at 22:00 tomorrow tonight to discuss the world of esports once again in their LO3 show. One of the hottest topics this week was the formation of the WWFOG (Worldwide Federation of Gaming) and this article discussing its potential or lack thereof. WWFOG will get the full LO3 treatment as one of the main men behind the organisation, Isaiah "TriForce" Johnson will be live on-air.
John 'eSports' Doe will be under scrutiny himself as the LO3 team gets to grips with the idea of anonymous articles. From the press release:
Elsewhere in the show, DJWheat and co will be discussing the upcoming Gamegune event in Spain and giving us their predictions. ESL's recently announced QuakeLive tournament will also get a mention thanks to familiar faces like Alessandro 'stermy' Avallone and Maciej 'av3k' Krzykowski. Rounding the show off will be today's victory for Grubby in the GOMTV Invitational.
The whole thing starts at 22:00 CET tomorrow night and you'll find it on the DJWheat website.

"An anonymous article was written on SK-Gaming regarding the federation. Anonymous posting is lame. We'll talk about the aspects of posting articles, columns and news anonymously, and whether editorial sites should allow such behavior."

I agree that the writer went a little to far by basically saying that the US fails everything it does, but its points concerning the WWFOG was pretty spot on.
"Anonymous posting is lame." - he couldn't be more right, cuz c'mon SK anonymous articles here ?! yeah sure, u know who it is. And why should anyone take it seriously when the person who wrote it wasnt serious enough to put his nickname
it's a question of understanding and looking at both sides of the story :p the rest is opinions deducted from those understandements.
Again Americans have no problem mister No-Nobody said WWFOG was going to be fail because most of us see this as another way for an organization to take our money. But what upsetting was the comparison between US vs. the World and saying we fail at everything when we have stable pc leagues and also when retard doesn't know that console and arcade fighting gamies what is what our scene is all about.
this is what we call professionalism. Imagine why this couldn't happen on some other serious media (besides esport), unless there are some discoveries and the person needs to be protected. w/e
