You weren't able to explain your situation to your manager (like the actual situation - not just that you need 7 days off) and get a week off?
HR said I'd lose my job because I'm so new. It's not like I didn't try to go to this, I just don't want to give up something like this for something that isn't a sure deal.

Oh wow Cixah.
Not everyone is going to be in a position to be able to do something like that, and hopefully it's the first of quite a few like it. You've already made a name for yourself in the budding scene, so hopefully there will be other opportunities.
That's an incredibly tough decision man, and for what it's worth, I think you made the right one.

To be fair though, Yango has both the LoL forums and the DotA 2 forums strung up on his marionette strings. So it's natural he'll get a lot of posts there.
Also shitposting. Milestone posts make people do baaaaaaaad things.
10 minutes to work. Would prob. take much longer on bus because I'd have to either walk a good third of the distance, or make a connection and I'm not sure where it'd be possible.
Never considered biking; my city has public bikes but I don't think the network goes that far. On the other hand, even tho it's cold and slightly uphill I wouldn't need that 7-8 minutes more just to unfreeze the windscreen each morning.

There will definitely be more opportunities 6. just make sure you have time to keep being the semi finalist of TL opens.
I understand why you did what you did. especially since it's the first time you've had some financial security in your life (from what it sounds like).
I probably would have said fuck it and went.
but then again, that's why I always tower dive and feed first blood.

I support your decision Cixah, probably the wisest option but yeah that sucks you had to choose.
I got up early to get some HS games since I don't have time in the evenings this week and totally forgot Tuesday mornings + Blizzard = maintenance >.>
Also, both my real jobs so far have been ten minute commutes. You city slickers can suck it! ^^
|
Ah crap, Hearthstone is down for maintenance. I might actually have to study now.
|
RIP Cixah's esports career
(I think you made the right choice. It seems like you had more to lose than gain.)
|
cixah sold THE DREAM for dollahs.
RIP cixah.

Nah most (if not all?) of the hearthstone tourneys are just online events, which wouldn't require that much if any vacation time. Sucks to turn down all expenses paid foreign travel though!

oh look it's december
oh look they're talkin gabout budget deadline 24 7 on cnbc again with no progress
it's like the past two months never happened~~
|
cixah lost his passion for esports
|
Uhh i think it's the right decision tbh, taking a vacation on a job you just got is never a good idea imo.
Anywaynif you happen to visit berlin makensure to gimme a headsup.
Seems like hearthstpne is getting pretty serious as well? Do you think blizzard expected it to be this popular? i think it reached a ton of people thanks to lol streamers alone
|
fwiw cixah, you made the right decision - I'm sure more opportunities will present themselves, you've got a name in the community, and you've got a direct line to artosis
on another note: IT'S SNOWING THERE'S PRETTY SNOW I'M IN SUCH A GOOD MOOD

That sounds sick Cixah, but I'll echo what most people were saying: you made a good call.
We'll miss seeing you at the event, but making sure you feel safe and secure with your life is the #1 priority. <3

I think the only reason why I don't like snow is because it makes it harder to bike.
Other than that snow is a pretty cool dude.
