WCGWCGWCG

teeheehee the world cyber game's are here. Stupid singapore, wcg is a bloody international event but the coverage is still so low. Like if i wasnt in the gaming scene i wouldnt know that singapore was hosting the WCG finals this year. Anyways ill be going down to suntec tomorrow with weisheng, chang and some other war3 addicts to breathe the same air as Grubby, and in doing so probably making our apm increase by about 50. I feel so sorry for the poor korean guy playing him at 2pm tomorrow... from pre match polling at the world cyber games website almost the whole world voted for grubby to win, hahah.

Heres some stupid info about this years WCG that i read up while surfing the WCG websites.
1. The games village is actually Costa Sands resort
2. The players, staff and referees of WCG actually took up 360 rooms in costa sands
3. CNN is providing coverage of wcg but mediacorp is the "host broadcaster".
4. Italy is the host nation for the next WCG
5. The world cyber games actually have a theme song called "beyond the game". wtf
6. WCG attracted 1million participants and audience in San Francisco last year

But the funniest part is this excerpt i took from the wcg website. "Said Mr Hank Jeong, CEO of ICM: We are very excited that MediaCorp TV, one of the major media outlets in Singapore, is the official host broadcaster of WCG 2005 Grand Final"

....like hello??!? mediacorp is one of the major media outlets in singapore? Theres only one and its not major, we watch so much more cable channels than crappy local shows.

anyways, i havent slept for the past 60+ hours. So im like tired X3. Zhihuan was telling me that if you dont sleep for 72hours you start to go mental. Like hallucinate and stuff, but i guess i shouldnt try that, in case i see su behind me at 3am or something, then my mother will be wondering why i am slashing the air behind me with a knife.

Speaking of su, su and i found out that no one types english in Kalimdor, Battle Net's Asia server. The people there communicate in a series of question and exclamation marks. Seriously. The in-game chat of one of our games there was like that:

Player 1: !!?! !!!?!!!
Player 2: ?!?
Player 1: !?!!!
(Su's player name i forgot) : Lol these fags cant talk
(Su's player name i forgot) has left the game.

And thats how we got booted too. Like can you only insult them after the game starts? Then they do anything. But really, i find it damn funny that Kalimdor people converse this way.
