EDIT: The team house is now LIVE! We will be setting up the stream in the next few hours, between eating burgers and smoking. Keep checking the thread to keep posted.
NIgs stream is now live @ www.justin.tv/clueless_uk! Check our twitter (twitter.com/nigsc for updates on when we go live)
Fellow TLers,
Some of you may remember the post a few months back regarding the news of Northern Ireland's first major gaming clan "NIgs" being announced; well today I bring you more exciting news:
NIgs will be starting a team house in August 2012. While most of the players are relatively unknown to the TL community, they have been practising hard, and will soon be well known names in the Starcraft 2 world! To mark this occasion, starting at ~8pm GMT on 22/08/11, we will be publicising a mini team house for 5 days.
During this time, we will be running KOTHs, streaming, playing lots and lots and lots and lots, while all the time chainsmoking. Not only this, but throughout the week, we will be recording some video material for you fine folks on TL on our daily life as well as interviews, and a night out on the town talking about starcraft.
For comedy, fun, tips and rage (mostly rage), join us on the stream (justin.tv/clueless_uk) on the day as well as our twitter (twitter.com/nigsc), facebook (http://www.facebook.com/groups/165140136894580/) and the upcoming material on TL.
During this time however, we seek some help from the community, namely in the way of practice partners.
If you wish to apply to practise with us, leave the following details in the thread (note, KOTH details will run in a separate thread)

Points this season and last
Master league only please (this season)!
For some of you, Starcraft in Northern Ireland will mean nothing; for others it will be of paramount importance. This thread is for the latter!
Yours in macro and in micro,
CluEleSs
EDIT: yeah sorry my stupid dates. I'm still living in the past here
AND congratulations to NIgsFlu, who just placed in the top4 for the Switzerland WCG bid, and will hopefully secure his place in another tournament next week as first (I'm led to believe).

NIgs whatiting!
wished there would be something similar to this here in switzerland ;(
pretty jealous^^
|
Ooh shit clueless I didn't knew you were this serious : D
|
Yeah Latedi, this is serious stuff! I hope we can get more players from Northern Ireland involved in the scene over the coming week!
|
So you announce that you will create the teamhouse in 1 year and that you will start a mini team house 1 year ago?
Aside from that confusing date stuff it sounds like cool stuff!
|
Good luck with this, ask me for customs any time you want ;D
Also are the dates in the OP correct? I understand if you have to wait a year to get the house running but you cannot physically go back a year in time to play around.

Glad to see I wasn't the only who completely confused by their dates.

I'd apply but I couldn't live with the shame of playing with a team named 'Nigs'.
|
Oh dear, what an unfortunate name.
|
As a player from NI, I wish you luck. You'll need it given how non-existent our scene is.. but you might want to change the name haha

If by unfortunate you mean awesome!
Seriously though, GOOD LUCK GUYS!

its an awesome name but in the end its still just a name =)
not joining a game because of its name sounds like a stupid reason 2 me but w/e

Starting off by calling your team nigs doesnt bode well for your "professional" future. Shit like that is the reason NI cant field a good team. lol.

Names can always be changed if Blizzard actually would implement the paid name change that has supposedly been coming since release
We sort of created it, changed tags then realised the possible offence that could be taken at the tags, but as of yet we're unable to change our tags without shelling out 40 euros on a new copy of the game
I suppose people will forever think we're trolling, but there's a reason for the lack of change. Thanks to anybody who is willing to put up with the 'offensiveness' and practice with us though, means a lot
