This is still insane. Every site RELATED to e-Sports is down.



CSNation is the only site that is working - Amped is working only 1/2 the time, every other site is down.



Update: gotFrag just loaded.

Not true. :P

OH COMEON, UNDISCLOSED. Wow, that doesn't shock anyone if there isn't any freaking decimal places, IT'S AMERICA IDIOTS, SHOW ME THE MONEYZ. Now if people saw like 100,000 a year or some crazy amount then they'd actually be shocked. Undisclosed just goes to show Bullseye probably gets paid as much as the moron at burgerking.

Oh another funny thing I needed to add was, coL is still currently

CAL-im. If they are moved up within a few days then honestly, CAL is the most idiotic league every assembled. At least put them in premier for christ sakes, not this cal-im rape when its obvious warden, knoxville, and bullseye are all very UPPER CPL/CAL-i level...

and this is a shocker... to who?



this is as over hyped as it gets. honestly, no one really even CARES about this, even if they say they do. I know this because I know everything.

This is so funny.



"TsN will present EXCLUSIVE news that is absolutely guaranteed to ROCK the counterstrike community and perhaps all of gaming to its foundations. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS EASILY THE BIGGEST OF IT'S KIND IN THE HISTORY OF COMPETITIVE COUNTERSTRIKE AND WILL FORGE THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME."



I really can't stop laughing way to look stupid, TsN... How the hell could that announcement rock of all gaming to its foundations? Ever heard about "StarCraft" and "South Korea"? And this ain't even rocking the CS community, this move will not change _anything_. Besides, we don't even have exact figures. If we're supposed to be impressed, tell us more than "it is said to be in excess of $1000/month more than the current superstar teams. There are also talks of including Health and Dental Care plan for Mr. Morgan as well as a 401k" (taken from gotFrag). This is so damn ridiculous.



Now the move itself. If Bullseye can make a living out of that salary then I guess it was a pretty good move for him, he retired because he couldn't make a living out of the salary Team3D gave him. I still hope he'll have another job than that.

good luck in calim...

I could laugh...another Michael Jordan case...seems like no one can actually stay away from CS or its community. :)



EDIT: By the way, I don't sense any real 'rocking'. Less-than-three overhype.

[The Hitman]

I was gonna say didnt he retire ??

lol looks like hes back !

[Pharlap]

someone predicted that "bullseye" would come back just like "frank nuccio" of the CPL after he "retired". guess the money is more important after all.

[Shadow]

Yeah, he sure pulled a Michael Jordan on us! Wow, he left like last week.

amen.



Seriously, this isn't anything shocking imo, its just the kind of thing that makes you go heh, o well. CS isn't a professional sport, it dosen't require any effort to play, so baisically, anyone can "retire" and start over when they dont have anything to do some sunday afternoon.



And as said in the quote above, the amount of money he gets is baisically minimum wage, so way to make 'records' out of nothing.



As a sidenote, this morning i just broke a personnal record for being alive a day longer then yesterday, which is longer then ever in my history.



rofl, btw did you read the tsn site, they changed that agressive red paragraph from the 'shock of the world hitlerian invasion' thing to :

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS EASILY THE BIGGEST OF IT'S KIND IN THE HISTORY OF COMPETITIVE COUNTERSTRIKE AND WILL FORGE THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME.

I honestly think this little "super-clan" idea is good and all, but this coL|1 character isn't really the first person to be doing all of this. Nor is he the first to organize players together and pay them to play. coL|1 tries to feed us these stories that he is single handedly revolutionizing eSports and coL is breaking new ground in the field.. Truth is, Schroet Kommando is a well established organization and does the same thing coL does, except SK doesn't throw away as much money on single players. There are several organizations like SK that gather players and pay them reasonable amounts and bind them via contracts. coL does the same thing, but it seems to me that coL|1 gets easily excited and it was to generous with his wallet. Anyway, the point of all this is, coL needs to stop preaching that they are a revolutionary face for eSports, coL is just "1" man with lots of money.



I bashed coL a lot, but I do have to give some respect to 1. He's one of the few older men who dedicate so much money to gaming. I just disagree with some of his dramatic advertisements
