There are many names in BroodWar which were famous at a given time and disappeared.
Since I have taken several breaks, I never could follow what fate brought to those player to stay away from sc.
Therefore, I am making this thread to fulfill my -as well as others- curiosity, and eventually edit it to make a list their whereabouts (Please, do not let them all be in poker stars dot net lol)
With no further ado, please help me answer the questions:
Where are they now?
Or what happened to them?

Thanks for all replies =)
PS 1: List is not exhaustive , I probably forgot some names. I probably added some names that should not be in this list, either because they are still active and Im just unaware, or because they simply did not do anything 'important'. =P
|
fisheye, midian, smuft, giyom, and fayth are active poker players, most of whom post at lp

There's a thread similar to this which was created a month or three back... I can't seem to find it though, if someone remembers where it's at post it please! I'm sure that has some answers you're looking for. I'm curious about a few unanswered ones myself!

Nazgul/FrozenArbiter is a mod here (or were last time i checked)

Pat has always been a mystery as to where he has been as well as Chr1s (PGT's webmaster/coder)
Draco plays once in a while
Legionaire has moved on with his life, moved back to Australia and went to college afaik

It's spelled 'Guillame' not Giyom. He took that name up because that's how the Koreans pronounced it. By the way, I think Tsunami quit SC a loooong time ago and lives a normal life and such. I played with a year back and that's what he said anywho.

its spelled Guillaume not Guillame. And yes it is spelled Giyom since that was sometimes his ID when playing... because thats how koreans pronounced his last name.

MistrZZZ plays for ZZZ in BWCL 1a, we had a match vs them last week.
He kept trashtalking and lost the series, obviously horribly underestimating his enemy.

Nony has a real life and a wonderful fiancée I hear, which many have speculated was the reason for his leaving Korea. He still posts here though, and I think he's mentioned he will play SC2 competitively, though I can't cite that.

Testie is TL DotA and Diablo 2 hater 
He and me went 100% on iCCup 2v2 last season, and so far are 100% this season too. Better than him and Mondragon looool!
+ Show Spoiler +2-0 last season and 3-0 this season. suck it bitches!
|
Sepirose is a practice partner for estro I believe, other than that I dont know, he could have even stopped playing by now.
I saw froz on useast a while back which still means he plays i guess. Hotkeys matched to old reps of him.
MIStrZZZ turned to poker I believe although he still plays but isnt as active. http://esportsi.net/league/player/512 for replays of him from this month (vs dragonmon!!!)
Smuft plays poker and hangs out with rekrul and grrr occasionally I believe, i saw some pictures of them together recently.
Advokate aka A2 aka rox.aooa still plays, how actively I dont know. He made it to A- last season with like 80-20 stats or something.
G5 still plays.
Physician still posts here actively

I think you could mean madcow. But it was talk about suncow went to jail too so maybe both are locked up. On the other hand they might be out already.Especially suncow since iirc he just beat up someone or whatever.

I would like to know where 0gogo is right now.

I know this is probably just for foreign players, but I really want to know what happened to Chrh after he got discharged from the AirForce?
|
Isn't chrh a commentator?
Last I saw Froz was @ blizzcon where he made a cameo with his gf.
edit- What about Hovz, where is that guy?
|
Who cares? (where HovZ is that is)
|
Satanik is playing on Get. He has his off/on periods --;
He played like 1000 games last season
And yesterday I allied SuKeR 2v2, he is working a lot so not much playing. But he is still here. Lost his gosuness tho( shame )

mtm is korean, he used to be one of the best lotem players
|
I think Sepirose realized that not every match up was TvZ and that he couldnt win every game with (godly) quick 1/1 mnm only so he stopped
Wait, Nazgul doesn't own liquidpoker as well?
And lol@ some of artosis's comments. Especially the testie ones.
