i'm kinda worried that the whole thing might "fail", due to not having a coach, or some person who gives them some pressure and makes them practice even though they'd rather not to for some days. when i watched the video, i got the impression they only rented the house. i remember tlo saying everyone was chipping in, and i thought this meant paying the rent? but some other posters in this thread seem to think they bought the house? so what's the case? | ||

Haha, its probably not going to be that bad but seriously, I wonder how the poor German will handle temperatures that makes your snot freeze instantly inside your nose as you're walking to the supermarket. Luckily if this winter is going to be anything like last winter he won't be lacking motivation to stay inside in the warm and cozy house to practice  I believe we have really similar weather here in quebec, it ain't THAT bad except I try to go out the very bare minimum  | ||

They should have found a house in some smaller town with decent communications (to get to live turneys) and pay waaay less. so true. Almost every middlesized town in Sweden have great connection and probably 1/5 of the price if not less. Then again we dont really know if they have bought the house or rented it, If its just a rented house it might not matter to much with the rent split 5ways. Buying a house in sthlm though, even a somewhat poor looking as that one is pretty damn expensive. The initiative is awsome though! Wish i knew the adress so I can send them a case of beer or something :D *corrected spelling cause obviously sending 5 geeks a case of bears would probably end up quite bloody | ||

What has failed most is the communications the laste 2 winters. Sweden is a country where people use the public transport alot and it has really been lacking when the snow comes. Its like they get shocked every winter...." what snow? in sweden? really?! oh fuck..." | ||

I also forgot to add that you gotta give TLO some thumbs up for learning some Swedish and his pronouncing is defenitly understandable, and pronouncing Swedish is not too easy to do! And finally it is nice to finally see how Bischu looks like. | ||

Its like they get shocked every winter...." what snow? in sweden? really?! oh fuck..." I've been around some countries in the winter and believe it or not, we Swedes have a fairly good transportation system when it comes to snow (as shitty as it actually is). Some of the countries I've been to basically shuts down over the prospect of snow.  Also I can't agree more with your first sentence. I love the winter but sometimes I just want the winter to end so people would just shut up about how poor the weather is. Though then people just start bitching how short and cloudy the summer is.... | ||

Allow me to present, your honor, exhibit A. As you and the jury can see for yourselves, the discarded bicycle, house coloration and number are the same as in the defendant's video. Do also note the large window, which brings us to... Exhibit B. The windows are covered up, clearly indicative of a drug cartel operation. In this particular photograph the light causes a reflection, but with proper analysis the conclusion should be obvious. Finally, if I may, exhibit C in the garden. The prosecution firmly suspects this traditional barbecue grill to be a storage facility for strong narcotics and bad cheese. My fellow peers in the jury, will we allow this to take place in Sweden? A band of unruly youngsters running an operation of questionable legitimacy from their suburban villa - with an enormous consumption of electricity without any lights visible at night. You must agree with me that surely, something is very wrong here. These ruffians are threatening our position as not being the best country in the world for e-sports, and risk putting us ahead of South Korea if others follow their lead. In all seriousness, I live five minutes by foot from the progaming house. Tell me if you want to grab a beer together some evening when you're taking an hour off or so! I'll bring a guitar and play you something, promise. Fight on, heroes. | ||
