It would also be reasonable to suggest that as a reason for so many of Team EG to move to California, as it's so often the hub of activity on the west coast for pretty much everything (and some say the entire US). I could see myself moving to Cali if anything like the above come to pass. What's REALLY messed up is that my computer-illiterate borderline techno-phobe Mom suggested just yesterday that perhaps I could find a career as a progamer or perhaps in E-Sports or just the computer industry in general, and in a separate thread of discussion, supported a comment I made about possibly moving to Cali anyway. Team EG may inadvertently bestow upon me something approaching a real life. O.o | ||

1. iNcontroL is moving to California. 3. Gretorp, NOT a part of EG, but known to have a quite stable financial situation up to this point, has quit his job (!!) and has also moved to California. 3. EG is of course based in California, along with hundreds of other gigantic technology corporations that would certainly be THE most likely to sponsor and support some kind of "e-sports" venture. What does it all mean? There's gonna be cash money involved, as I doubt Gretorp would suddenly drop everything to bum around California with iNcontroL as a pro gamer. Evil Geniuses is almost certainly involved, but probably not the sole proprietor of whatever project this is. I will stroke my beard and think about it. | ||

He talked about it briefly on the last Coaches Corner or whatever it's called. http://de.justin.tv/gosucoachingtv/b/278622154 He just mentioned he quit his job and was going to California, and also that he would start coaching "very soon." | ||

And, consider this, EG do more e-sport things than just Starcraft, I'm not sure if it's just the Starcraft section/bit of EG that's moving to California, but it could be the entire EG team (CS, COD, SSF4) just to name a few. But yeah, I don't really know shit about this. | ||

Gretorp seemed loath to actually reveal the fact that he would be coaching on that show; he was all like "maybe in the near future..." and then was like "well, I'll go ahead and say it..." as if it were something they were meant to be hiding. Also, iNcontroL asked Gretorp the question kinda weirdly and specifically, like he already knew the answer and just had his trollface on. I'll rest my money on this theory. | ||
