The teamliquid meetup in Freiburg, Germany is behind us and I guess its safe to say, that it was one great event. For 3 days, we got to LAN, watch the Proleague, eat some korean food, get drunk but above else - have fun. I hope that everyone enjoyed the weekend as much as I did.
So here are some notable moments, captured by beetlelisk's camera:
The Nerds (from left to right): beetlelisk, Bone_Idle, paltung, Aesop, disciple, flicky, grnp, Pholon, fishyjoes, Nyovne, lb
Setting up the LAN on the table tennis table. See that JangBi keyboard?
Gosu alert! paltung destroyed everyone
Flicky getting some first hand strategic help from Aesop himself...
...but it doesnt really matter cause Bone_Idle cheesed the shit out of him anyway. Malibuuu
Zatic with one of his 27 MBC shirts, playing against Aesop
Pholon showed some fine collection of starcraft shirts as well.
Even the heroes get tired
...speaking of which, beetlelisk spent half of the meetup in this pose
And finally, our epic table at the korean restaurant
Time for the Awards, cause ofc some of the TLers stood out more than the others:
The Dedication Award
Goes without a contest to beetlelisk. Even thou he slept for like 40 hours in total, missing most of the fun, he traveled 22 hours by bus from Poland, just to be with us. Mad respect
The Drunk Award
Goes to Nyovne for his epic Saturday night stunt, involving setting his hair on fire and skipping the whole Sunday, due to hangover.
The Cheesiest Player Award
Another easy one - Bone_Idle. Although he wasnt the best player at the event, his games were easily the most entertaining ones. Almost pulled out a successful proxy hatch against me and a sunken rush against zatic.
The MIA Award
Goes to iNfeRnaL, who decided not to come by, but made some great laddering on TSL2 instead. I really wanna see his games vs kolll.
The Best Player Award
Goes to paltung. Came out of nowhere and destroyed us all without a contest. A good player and a great guy!
So, thats about it. Thank you all for coming once again and I'm really looking forward to our next meeting!

I ams survived!
My flight was delayed 80 minutes or so. I kept my promise about my sig Aesop.
Edit: I noticed you didn't mention your map selection fail by picking the 4 player desolation instead of Destination ><
Double edit: Just looked at the other thread, where was Believe?
Triple edit fail: At the airport there was a white girl/boy thing that looked just like effort. My phone ran out of battery before I could ask him/her for a photo.

i'm proud of you. finally people are starting to get that effort is not human, but a thing. dam koreans and their alien-ness.
i mean, compare this dude:

Great Pics guys, and a very nice writeup by Disciple. I love the confiscated table tennis table and the shirts.
Mad props to Beetle, Flicky and all the others who traveled a ton to get there (and back again).

Yeah srsly kudos to Flicky, the Swedes and beetle to take so much time and effort to travel all the way there and join our little german organised fanfest! So awsome, even the car trip there which took quite a while was good fun with us 5 crammed into pholons car. (Shotgun seat >> u all leulz. Dutch priviledge thanks kek!)
So thanks most of all to Pholon for driving me all the way there and back again and taking quite some stops on the way back to allow me to puke my way through pretty much all of north-western Europe.

Bone_Idle was cheesing me, when that game happened so I missed it.
For me the game of the weekend was an hour long TvZ on Python between fishyjoes and Klauso, hopefully they will read this blog and upload the replay

YES ZATIC, TL MEET ON THE SLOPES SICK SHIT. TL SKIING VACATION ROARRR SICK LOL!
*calms down*
Dude that game between Klauso and Fishyjoes was good XD. Except I was 2v2ing most of the time it got played. Best game of the LAN without a doubt.
And we should organise something in DutchLand somewhere next year after we get a good location and test the interest for it  .
edit: scott wtf now I had noone to pop my collar for dude, u leavin me hangin.

You forgot to mention 5 floors / 13 meters long internet cable!
Damn too bad I was sleeping so much and I'm sorry if I wasn't talkative enough ;PP
I am totally for TL skiing, the only question is where and when - Italy is a very good and fairly cheap place to ski comparing it to for example France; shouldn't be much more expensive than Austria but has 1200km(!) of slopes.
I need to call people that I was going with there few times
|
Sounds like it was a lot of fun. Too bad my country is as big as your continent so it's more difficult to meet-up with TL guys. 
|
Netherlands19129 Posts
lol yeah the 5 floor 30meter + cable to set up our inet was fun XD. I was following it from the room and ended up in the stairwell and looked down and was like oohhhhh sick seeing it disappear into that german abyss.

the cable looked like that half-life creature with the long thing that was just sucking you up, and you were like aghhh... yeah, you know what I'm talking about

Flicky, your signature is awesome.
Not ONLY because I have a fan

lol Nyovne
we should do a swedish TL meeting imo. If you guys aren't < 20 and opposed to drinking alcohol.
|

be more decisive and just organize a meetup, apparently 1000 or so kilometers are not something ppl are getting stopped by, so I'm sure a lot of TLers will show up. I would for sure

seriously thou, Sweden is the worst place to make a meeting - its so expensive there. I love Flicky's comment about the ppl who were posting "oh lets make another one in my town some day".
Learn from b-lisk and his amazing trip
|
Thank you for the award btw :D coming back was funny because we were told not to use cell phones because their radio emission may cause malfunction of a deck computer o0 and asked to use bus phone for 1 euro / min
I think there should be few more photos here
The man who made it happen - disciple! happy gmp and his meal less blurry photo of entire table; closest people are aqui on the left and Zatic on the right
Either I have shaky hands or my camera is just too old, there is 66 pictures total but a lot are blurry :/

I just found this thread! :O
Great pictures but didnt we take more?
This whole event was really great and i was happy to finally meet some TL people!
Too bad I had to take the train back at saturday night because of my Mums birthsday the next day. I wanted to take it at 12:06 but when we were at the pub i was like "nah fuck that i stay and take the next train!"(6 hours later :O) next time choose a better date please T_T
so what did i miss on sunday? except for nyo being so fucked up from drinking. and whats that hair-burning story?! :O

Im afraid I dont have any replays of the games. I didnt bring my PC (obviously) and played on i think beetlelisks laptop. Maybe Klauso has the reps! But man, that games i played vs him got me so mad. I was like "okay okay u havnt played in weeks, just play standard 3hat muta u still know the timings" then i on a good way on setting up my midgame. having some lurkers at my 3rd and everything. and suddenly he moving out with over ninethousand marines right to my nat :O from then on i just feel apart trying to somehow catch up again.
but its nice to hear people enjoyed watching us =) i think in the end it was like a defiler and 46 hydra vs his scv (SO MANY) and one battlecruiser xD
I have to "buddy" all you guys immediately!

Oh Wtf Pholon got a star, it's a regular star give-away around here.
