Holy shit, my dorm room (which I believe was 11x9) looked bigger than that. I guess you can spin it a positive note by saying at least they don't have roommates and their bathroom (or just sink?) isn't down the hall. But geez.

They could have rent a 2-br apartment with 8 bunkbeds.

the rooms are fine for sleeping, if you eat elsewhere and are busy with the tournament during the day i do not see any problems... i can understand some disappointment if the rooms are better at other events, but saying it is horrible is just ridiculous.

Well, you're implying that Team Liquid, Startale and MVP lied about the reason for cancellation.

Would you rather have these teams explicitly say that they are not sending their players because of deplorable conditions? That's not a way to burn bridges at all is it.

Hey sorry for being a pain but at the bottom it says groups first to semis and second and third to quarters, isn't it first gets the bye to quarters and 2nd third have to fight in the ro16?

i've never been to Germany, but looking at these pictures and hearing words from a local person make me understand the living condition in Germany. I'm kinda proud that although my country is poor, but the living condition, especially the hotel, is pretty much equal or above this standard.

Also, I would love to see a picture of Idra staring at the sink and smiling like Zenio <3
EDIT: my bad, i was misinformed i thought it was a hotel. I suppose I was wrong.

I'm saying that you're speculating that Ret, Sound, fruitdealer and DRG choose not to attend IEM because they would have to sleep in a youth hostel on no other basis than your warped sense of what is acceptable sleeping conditions. Deplorable conditions? Do you know how a Korean team-house looks? That most Korean players do not receive a salary? What I'm saying is that you're an idiot and that you should try to do some travelling and maybe you would see that youth hostels are really not that bad. In fact, they can be a lot of fun.

lol at this post.... the rooms they are staying are not in a hotel. As someone mentioned before, a 1Star Hotel in Germany is better than this...

Its funny because people who live in Korean houses are complaining about these rooms.

hey don't draw conclusions now, our living conditions are pretty good, any hotel with 1 star would beat these rooms, but just sleeping and i am assuming for free should be good enough, it seems like the rooms the workers would get on the exhibition, or rooms for a school vacation (small, cheap, but if its tidy...)

What? You care to deduct 'living conditions' from this?

It's a youth hostel. Something that exists everywhere in europe but not necessarily other parts of the world, I understand that. Sometimes semi-pubic, sometimes not-for-profit, sometimes community run places like this for instance don't really exist in the states for instance. The difference is that you pay 25 Euro a night over the $95 you might otherwise spend at a Motel 6.

It's cheap accommodation specifically for young people. Got jack shit to do with living conditions. And you're probably a lot less likely to get bed bugs from one of these beds than from any given hotel in NYC.

Though I had a company once put me up in one of these on a business trip. That really wasn't cool - though it was in the UK. Must be hell to live there

Gotta say (Now I'm getting nerdstormed), but all my last thoughts of Idra being good player or a good person has gone down the toilet (ofc, not met him IRL, like 99,9% of ppl haven't here).
1) His gameplay has gone really bad, and results aren't that shining.. BW was different game. 2) Manners... those manners! 3) And now his twitter feed.

Now I'm prepared! Hit me fanboys, but just throwing my opinion in the mixture! <3


Avoiding total offtopic; I really hope Nerchio brings results, seems really good player in online-tournaments and ofc zerg.
Until the very top it's about how much work you put into it.
