I really need some assistance in checking in and reminders, if anyone from Toronto would help me sometime, that'd be awesome, I can text to check in for me if im coming home, etc..

I've been entering so many tournaments, as many as I can. I usually plow through so many rounds and end up losing somewhere in the top 16. Usually with 100+ people, I know I can win these, Ive come sooo close to the last few.

So far my list of achievements

+ Show Spoiler +
Achievements:
top 8 WCG Canada lan ets - lost 1-2 JF
1st SCArena solo
Various KOTH

Notables:
Top 16 TL SC2 open - lost 1-2 vs Socke
Staying Alive Tournament #4 Oct 3rd top 16
Top 4 Wysley Diamond Tour #6 - http://challonge.com/wdot6


This is nothing compared to my schedule, these aren't even half of my results, I probably forgot a bunch of them. If you want to take a look at what my week looks like, its online here:
http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/dolong@gmail.com/public/basic
Or html: http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=dolong@gmail.com&ctz=America/Toronto

On top of this crazy schedule, I have 4 university courses. Which I'm doing pretty decently, I think I have a really easy semester with only 8 hours of class a week. And I also manage the CSL team for Toronto.

I had 2 tournaments yesterday, with a presentation just before them. Which I stayed up all night for, I swear I lost the last tournament in the ro4 because of lack of sleep lol.

BUT HONESTLY, this is the most thrilling time I ever had gaming, going so far in everything I enter, its just a rush.

Still, imagine being in Korea with their extreme schedule, its probably nothing compared to the life there. Still its my dream to go pro, despite asian parents, and my education.

edit: if anyones interested I can upload a tournaments replay pack. But currently I'm uploading some of the matches to my youtube.

Managers usually take like 10% of your winnings. Is this okay with you?

Would definitely be interested in a replay pack. :D I totally became a fan in the small amount of games I've seen of yours.

Anyways, gl with getting just a bit further in those tournaments and with getting a manager.

Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone! Didn't realize I'd get such nice reviews =)

Anyone know if I can get on the irc chats to log in to the tournaments through a android phone or a blackberry? Or if livestream works on iphone?
