My sleep schedule. When the GSL is on I make sure I'm up before 5:10 am the days that its on.

Heck, my alarm on my phone to wake up at 4:30 reads "GSL Time".

abnout a dozen university grades that could have been 1,3 (A-) to 2,0 (B) instead became 2,3 (B-) to 3,0 (C) since the release of WoL. Also, I failed 4 exams entirely in the summer of 2010. And no, these are not bullshit US grades where you snore in class to get a B. If you do that here, you get at most a C- unless you're highly into the subject at hand which I doubt since it was mainly 19th century British lit.

Sacrifice? Nothing.
Invested? A few weekends for MLG Providence, NESC2Leage finals, and countless dollars on various tickets to watch online, and donated some money. Other than that, not really much.
I'd like to think I've saved money since I've spent minimal money on other games

Besides the time I have spent in anything in relation with e-sports, PC gear and buying games, I have spent 40€ to get into Hall 23 in Hannover on the CeBiT, just to see Grubby and Apollo talking about the last game which just ended. 20 minuts talking with TT1, DIMAGA, TaKe and many more and also seeing IdrA ragequitting.

But after thsoe 20 minuts I had to go back to school since I was on a schoold trip.

Some small things : I leave the stream up to give that little extra for whatever player(s) im watching. i honestly dont know if it has any effect but i do it anyway. I don't know if buying gear from steelseries/razer etc counts but I did buy the Benq 60hz monitor that startale had some hand in (Benq RL2450HT, although not only cos of startale but why not) and along with a steelseries keyboard / mouse / headset. I dont know if it helps e-sports though It definetly helped me! hihi oh and I also follow a bunch of streams to give them extra features on twitch.

I sacrificed my daytime job opportunity and devoted to make maps that receive zero compensation.

P.S. I work evenings, so I have an income and a life.

I ritual slaughtered a goat to honor the gods of starcraft once and asked for a prosperous future for esports to come, but other than that, nothing.
