Episode 22 of 'The Schet List' roundtable discussion show airs tonight at 11pm EST. JaX, Rambo, Smeagol, NickFitz and Chris Schetter will discuss the 'State of the Gaming Union'

The 22nd edition of the weekly roundtable discussion show 'The Schet list' will air tonight on TBGF.tv at 11pm EST or tomorrow morning at 4am GMT/5 am CET if you're European.

With the WCG USA qualifier fast approaching the show will attempt to address the current climate of the scene in the segment of a series entitled 'State of the Gaming Union'.

As the website states:

"We intend to leave no stone unturned in this show: is CS due for a real revival or is it dead in the water? What might take it's place in team gaming? Will we always look back towards the middle part of this decade as the heyday of gaming or are brighter days ahead? Are any of the current tournament circuits in a place to take things to the next level, or are we in for a paradigm shift before we see real sustainable growth in the scene? Is it really just the economy, stupid?"

The roundtable discussion is comprised of a number of well known figures within the North American gaming scene. Alex "JaX" Conroy made his name as the driving force behind the JaX Money Crew organization, whose CS team achieved a surprising 3rd at CPL Winter 2003, and is now CDO of compLexity. Ronald "Rambo" Kim is a two time CPL winner, two time WCG gold medallist and played in the legendary NiP-X3 game at CPL Winter in 2001. Jeff "Smeagol" Dickinson has long been known as a play-by-play shoutcaster for TSN and iTG, covering events like CPL Winter 2004 and WEG. I'm not sure who Chris Schetter is but the show's name derives from his so I'll let that slide. NickFitz is the man behind x3o-gaming, whose CS team was considered #1 in the US prior to departing for coL.

The show begins at 11pm EST at their homepage and you will be able to call in from approximately 11:30pm EST onwards. The telephone number is 505.227.TGBF (8423) or you can skype: calltgbf.
