Hey there!
I´m glad you found my personal space in the deep blue sea called the "internetz". This will be a blog/videolog about my big passion and vision of my life, to form and successfully manage a eSport Team.
So anyway. I´ll get started with this first entry and I hope you will enjoy it and find it interesting.
OBS: Please note. English is not my native language so there will probably be some spelling and grammar incorrections! Also, I have never written a blog before so I ahve no clue how to write a "perfect" blog so I´ll just keep writing and see if you enjoy ^^.
Who am I?
So, I´m pretty much a regular guy from Sweden. 20 years old, no special grades or education, and not really good with the ladies (ah shiet!). Currently I´m working fulltime at a storehouse sorting orders and other boring stuff. It´s a pretty shit job but these days you cant be too picky since there arnt many options out there . In the spare time I try to workout when I finally get the motivation to get out of the computer chair, like that ever happens ^^. I´ve been a gamer and interested in eSport since the first day I recieved internet. What a amazing feeling it was to get online with the 56k connection and realize what mysteries had been hidden from me to discover! From that point I´ve played games like the whole Warcraft series, Starcraft, Counter Strike, Command and Conquer with all their titles and many more. Thou I´ve never been really good at RTS games, I´ve always had a huge passion and respect for those showing great skill in the scene.
For my part it does not really matter what game people are playing. I think that all games has a different feeling to it, its just about indivdual taste and preferences. What I want to see in the people is passion and dedication. The feeling that bursts thorugh peoples chests when they achieve something they´ve fought for a really long while and finally reached that goal. That´s what I love about the whole eSport Scene.
Me and the team.
So as I said, my dream is to become a manager of a eSport Team. A dream and vision I´ve already started working on. Thou we´re not the biggest team out there, I like the challenge to contact companies and try to get a partnership going!
I´ve been the manager and organizer of Team prOperty for almost a year now and it has been such a journey. We acquired our first sponsor this spring, nextgenVPN.com, and since then I´ve been striving forward to make the team be more serious about the gaming while searching for more attractive companies. I guess the only sad part is that I have no personal experience by such business before and no real education for it either, The one thing I got is passion and the spirit to work hard and it has really helped me make it through alot of hard situations.
The players has also ofcourse been a huge help to remain determine to my goal since they are the whole core of my passion and ambition. When for example prOpVandroy placed fourth at the Swedish WCG Qualifiers. I´ve never had such a good feeling in my body ever. I can´t even express it in words but it felt like I were unbeatable. And I were not even the one playing the match, just being a observer and kept fetching Vandroy water and cheering him up for every game . Seeing him sitting in the same booth where Bomber earlier that same day had played some showmatches were also quite awesome!
Vandroys pose at WCG Qualifiers :D.
It feels like I´ve already written too much so I better stop here . Thanks so much for reading my first blog entry and it would be awesome if you have any questions to me regarding anything. I´ll gladly answer anything you got in mind. For next entry I´ll probably have a webcam as well so I´m really pumped for that!

I can agree. It´s hard to not make it seam like it. I agree that I want to spread the word of my team but yeah, I don´t know. If TL thinks that it is too much of advertisement then I´ll quit the blog. Should I contact the admins and see if I should remove it?
I just thought that TL might be a good portal for people that might share my interest and thought it would be fun reading about my attemps of being a manager.
Thanks for your input man!

I don't know how the mods look at things, but I always make a personal distinction between people who just post their stuff on TL, and those people who actively contribute actively to TL. You're right, it's sometimes hard to tell the difference; but I sincerly hope you are the latter type of person. I'd love to see another SC2 pro team with strong ties to TL, I think it's really good for this community

Property is a great upcoming Swedish team, and you should all support them as they rise to be one of the best European teams out there. Watch out!

I´ agree. We´ll see how it goes. Maybe I just have to start a tumbler instead ro something like that. I´ll check with the mods and see what they got to say .
Thanks for your thoughts. It was important stuff you noted that I should have taken into account before I even posted the first entry!
We´ll see how it goes with the blog. If you see me posting again, it means I´m allowed!
Cheers!
