<3 Pillars, I like how you transitioned between various RTSes and did beta testing on them etc. (especially AoX).
Time is precious. Waste it wisely.

Oh wow i remember watching replays of these players. Every name is telling me something. Sven and Slayer - really great players. First "gosus" i saw live was sYs(DUNE) and Satanik and i was like wtf, these guys are fast. I remember talking with Satanik about Magic the Gatherings - wow that is nostalgy
Brood War is the best RTS that has ever been created.

Some more pictures of old gamers from CompUSA's tournaments back in ~2000 or 2001.

http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=4466292586

I talked to Kain afew days ago actually, he'll be messing around on SC2 but probably wont be back with serious gaming, since hes pretty busy with Poker/DJing.

My brother actually went to school with Sven. They used to hang out all the time, and as a result our families know each other really well. I met both Sven and Slayer on several occasions, though I've rarely seen them play. Last I heard Slayer went over to playing poker, but that's a couple of years back and he might be doing something else at the current time. As for Sven, I think he's studying.

Here's a norwegian documentary (with english subtitles) that follows Slayer as he ventures abroad to Korea where he participate in the Korean PGL tournament. The documentary also features Sven's input on the game. Really oldschool shit right here.

it's too bad there is no pictures of GoRush, he's the one that won wcg2000. [GG99]Slayer were definitely the best foreigner until he stopped broodwar, he was always beating Elky in final.

Christ Soul-Stone[tls], there's a name I remember from way back ^^ Think I played you a few time (probably as Jomando(Rot'N) or Op(Rot'N) )
I'm a man of my word, and that word is "unreliable".

You can see the Hwaseung OZ manager at about 2:40 in the second video. He was so young back then.

I'll have to look around and see if I can find the pics from the i2e2 tourney in Cleveland that X'Ds sent 2 teams (1 for BW, 1 for some FPS at the time I can't remember) but {PH}jEsTeR ended up winning (along with every other i2e2 tournament just about). Kinda funny that I played him a bunch on Kali the night before trying to practice and he rick rolled me. Ended up getting 6th, which wasn't bad considering the competition (Jester, IN-Lameking, X'Ds~Cherry, X'Ds~Rook I think, X'Ds~Crow was there as well but I don't recall him playing.)

ZeeRaX and Mr.X, this is from their warcraft days, but they were fucking awesome at Starcraft.
I actually remember sitting next to ZeeRaX when he played Pillars one night maybe 8 or more years ago.

Man that brought me back in time
