They have Bischu though, I'd say he's Sweden's 3rd best Protoss after Naniwa and Sase. I know Naniwa is playing with Morrow and Sjow a lot or at least used to so I'm sure Naniwa will communicate with the pro-house a lot. | ||

Naniwa isn't interviewed because he's not living there. And TLO's comments about Naniwa was blown way out of proportion. Do you really think Naniwa would be there otherwise? | ||

So yeah, anyone with an hour or two on their hands could easily find it. That being said, don't visit them uninvited even if you do find it. They obviously want to keep the raving fanhordes away, so do try and respect their wishes. Stockholm is a small place anyway, you're bound to run into some of them sooner or later - I already have. | ||

I think the balance works well atm because Morrow is the only "top contender" who lives there. Obviously I can't claim that I know the players too well but most of them appear fairly modest. Most of the top contenders don't seem to be. Also... SaSe pimpin! | ||

Oh well, thx for the walkthorugh and interviews! The house was an old house and as you said is quite a bit below standard but I didn't expect them to afford any house of better quality. The house fits it's purpose and is like a palace compared to most of the Korean houses. If I was five to ten years younger then this would be my dream setup. | ||

Reason i didnt think u watched the interview was you asking if thats Naniwa in the background when they said in the interview couple of times that it is Naniwa and other guy was Sase. | ||

Every time he says BanCHee I get a little angry inside, because saying sh is like the most German thing there is, yet he refuses to talk normal and instead tries to desperately not sound German which fails so hard (Nevertheless he does more for E-sport than I will ever do in my life, so he is a good person, I just don't like his language.) TLO's English actually sounds okay to me. It's German-ish of course, but hey, he is German, so it is fine. I was actually really surprised how responsible TLO seemed to be. And charming as always. | ||

Haypro seems like the type who lets other people pick on him and thus probably gets the worst room. Looks like he is too shy to interact with Asians. I can tell by his posture and the way he looks that it seem he did not engage conversation with Koreans that often or feel comfortable with them maybe.

The house is old but it has a garden, they can barbecue etc... it's great man! Besides they are in Ikea country.. 1000€ and that house looks like a palace ;D If you consider this guys have 20 something years i think it's good for some friends to get a nice house and follow their dreams. About sase and naniwa, of course they weren't interviewed since they don't live there. Maybe the rakaka guys could have talked to them a bit maybe ask a question, but he didn't. Like the setup and I think they will all improve allot. | ||

For people wonder why Haypro got the room right infront of the stair, I think he arrived last, so he has to do with whatever is left. Its still much better than sharing a room with several other guys. | ||

(Stockholm/Uppland). By far the most common colour is red, except in Scania, there the houses are white or yellow predominantly. Anyhow great house and good luck with getting along and progressing to further your common individual goals. And is it okay if I come over for BBQ some time, I'll be sure to bring a flintastek or something? | ||

(ie Kahldor) Khaldors german commentary sucks ... because it is half-english (and I dont mean the technical terms). Germans do have some problems with other languages and are pretty stupid about it. An easy example is french ... which has a lot of "silent letters" in its words. So one cheese had to be renamed from "Bressot" to "Bresso" ... just to make us germans not say that last letter. Pretty stupid. The main part of german accent is obviously the pronounciation of the "th", but the reason for that is mostly a lack of practice early on I think. We always have synchronized versions of movies and listening to native speakers of english isnt really something that is done. People are "unwilling" to watch a DVD with the original english sound (which is usually much better quality, because it doesnt come from a sterile studio) and thus arent going to learn the pronounciation. We also have a bad tradition of inventing our own "english words" which no one else knows ... or do you know what a "Handy" is? The "Telekom" also has lots of different tariffs and ALL of their names are english ... So actually we love english, but are too lazy to really learn it and only include it in a way which seems "fashionable" to us (talking partially in english like Khaldor and all the other german casters do) without really understanding some of the words. | ||

A nice Jimi Hendrix poster, maybe a Steve Wonder painting. Nice piano in the back and a few guitars on the walls. Some multi colored rugs, both on the floor AND walls. That's right! Some big huge inside flowers wouldn't hurt either, maybe some fern or some vine climbers. And a cat, of course, named Janis (After Janis Joplin) if it's a girl, or Billy (After Billy Joel). Other than my bohemian brain twitch, place looks great and perfect for playing. Nice neighbor hood too it seems like. GL! | ||

Idea: If you need help with say mowing the lawn or help by a maid? Don't turn to the professionals, turn to the starcraft nerds and fanboys! By letting them work for an hour in the house you can in turn trade them a coaching lesson! Vacuum cleaning is boring... let a nerd do it and then let him practice with you for an hour! I would be your maid for a day and then you give me something starcraft 2 related back! | ||

TLO: I never want to leave! Wintertime hellish weather TLO: I never want to come here again! 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'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? | ||

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 | ||

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. | ||

I know that when Mover (i think he's called that) moved out and TLO went to live in the netherlands with Nazgul because of his injury, the other players brought in Naugrim and Cytoplasm.
