The winner has been announced.

Check the "CJ Nation" TLFE on the right.




[image loading]


For every person that is happy that they won a shirt, there are 10 that are unhappy they weren't selected. I know a lot of big CJ fans are disappointed you won't be getting a shirt.

Here's your chance to get a shirt to wear when Savior plays his games in the current MSL!

I have bought a white large CJ shirt from one of the lottery winners. I will give this shirt away for free. Yes, no cost for you for the shirt, no cost for shipping in the United States. There might be a bit of shipping cost to other countries, but if you can't pay that we probably can work something out.

All you have to do is write an essay. The topic is open, but you should tie it into CJ or why you deserve the shirt. Heartfelt speeches, comedic skits, historical summaries, anything is game, as long as it's less than 500 words.

Details and Rules:

1. One post per essay contest entrant. Do not enter twice. If you won a shirt in the lottery, you cannot win here. Feel free to write an essay though if you want.

1a. Alternates for the lottery can enter, but you are limited to one shirt between the lottery and this contest.

2. 500 word limit. It can be shorter, or even a poem, but no more than 500 words please.

3. You may include one image, it can be placed anywhere in your essay. It can be a drawing, photo of you praying to a CJ altar, etc.

3a. You may also add a fan video, 2 minutes maximum.

4. It must be your own writing! Give your essay a title. If you include someone else's picture or video, please credit the source if its not obvious.

5. Topic is up to you, but suggested ones include why you're a big CJ fan and deserve the shirt, why you love a certain CJ player, etc.

6. Contest closes 12:00 KST 9/23 (~2 weeks from now), and shirt will be sent out after the winner is determined.

7. Judges will include myself, Plexa, semioldguy, and intrigue. We will vote on a winner.

8. Don't post your entries in this news post -- ENTER HERE.

Good luck, and we look forward to reading your entries!

Savior is my Messiah~ (Funny invented story according to the "Topic is up to you", I specify this from the beginning)

+ Show Spoiler +

It´s in you to believe in this story or not, I will not judge you if you don´t believe it, but in this essay I´m going to talk about the magic and mystical powers that Ma Jae Yoon aka Savior possesses (and thanks to God, sry, and thanks to Savior, he shared with me one time), teh CJ Entus titan and soul... powers who made me to rethink my whole lifestyle the day that they came to my house (event that i´m going to describe in this essay too)... so if he shared his powers with me (proof that i´m a big Savior, CJ Entus, and Starcraft fan) and you don´t give me that shirt, start asking for help to FHB, otherwise consider all of you dead...

Well... this story begins on a rainy and strange day... it was summer of 2006 when my old-shitty computer broke and I had to go to a hardware store to get a new one... so 2 days later I was arriving to my home with my new computer and wondering what I was going to do with such a new powerful engine and a brand new graphic card... and here came the morbid question... Should I keep playing Starcraft or start to enjoy the new graphic card and play some Cod 2, CS:Source, even AoE!? Oh Savior... I sinned that day...

That day I remember that I started to play some Cod 2 games with my brother, and Savior, I started to feel so empty in tha moment... "Where were the stimpacks?"... "And the imba scarabs killing my 75 SCVs?"... "And the random guys in the B.net screaming "MAPHACK!! MAPHACK!! YOUuu PIECE OF EUROTRASH!!11"?"... It was so sad...

After playing some Cod 2, I started to play AoE, trying to leave the memories of Starcraft in the past...And yup... I started to feel the same thing that before... "Where were my friends on B.net?"... "Muskets? Where´s my goddamn Gauss Rifle??"...

"Fuck off new games... But I am kinda bored of always playing Starcraft... even in this new computer..." And after saying such things I just went to my bed with a tear on the cheek and thinking about what should I do... I even thought about the possibility of STOP GAMING =((!!

But here´s when the magic of teh men, the Ma Jae Yoon, the goddam hive lord, Savior him-fucking-self, felt my problem and came to my house to help me!! Yup, believe it or not!! I remember that I was in bed very sad, and suddenly, I looked the window and ZOMFG!!:

[image loading]


Savior was in my window asking:

"Does something bad happen to you kekeke ;;?"

Oh God... it felt just like I won the lottery and beated Mondragon + Draco in a 2 vs 1 game at the same time... it was precious...

"Yeah Ma Jae, I don´t know if keep gaming or not , halp mee =´))"

I can´t describe what happen after that because Ma Jae asked to me later to not say a word about it, try to understand him, he just doesn´t want that everybody knows about what is he capable, otherwhise he would have a fucking church in his name in every country in the world... but I can tell you that from that day, my love for Starcraft and passion for things I want increased in a godlike way... all thanks to Savior and his magic powers, powers who let him won an MSL in the final agains´t the goddam Kang Min, an OSL agains´t Nada, and let Juanpe to keep playing SC until teh end =D


So that was my essay guys, hope that at least someone had a laugh reading it has I did while I was writing it =P
C+ rank Terran training harder every day to be like ChinaTTTT :D~ Lee Jae Dong phan o(∩_∩)o <3 <3 <3

Why on earth does everybody think Savior's first name is Ma Jae, it's Jae Yoon. Ma is his last name -_-

Not to entirely sound like your teacher but...

I'd recommend re-reading and editing your essays. Because if you submit it, and then a couple hours later didn't like the way you said something, or thought of something else you wanted to add, you'll kick yourself for prematurely entering the contest. The best writing is a result of writing and re-writing (and rewriting, rewriting, and more rewriting). So go over it a bunch and make it the best you can make it.

Good Luck to all of you!

Starcraft: Repercussions of Evil

[image loading]

Savior waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were zergs in the base. He didn't see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to Jim Raynor were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway.
Ma Jae Yoon was a space marine for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the spaceships and he said to dad "I want to be on the ships daddy."
Dad said "No! You will BE KILL BY THE ZERG"
There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in the space station base of the UED he knew there were zergs.
"This is Firebathero" the radio crackered. "You must fight the zergs!"
So Savior gotted his palsma rifle and blew up the wall.
"HE GOING TO KILL US" said the zergs
"I will shoot at him" said the zergling and he fired the rocket missiles. Savior plasmaed at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill.
"No! I must kill the zergs" he shouted
The radio said "No, Savior. You are the Zerg"
And then Ma Jae Yoon was a Zerg player.

so ok, it isnt entirely original.. but hell, I tried. Not expecting to win. =P

eh I suck at writing, and I'm not very creative, so this is definitely NOT the contest for me... but maybe I'll try anyway, if I'm really bored. Good thing there's quite a bit of time to write this

StarCraft Under Venezuela's Warming Sun

So I turn on the radio one warm morning while my grandma walked around in the kitchen to make herself some coffee with milk and sugar. Door open, windy, sandy and a guy on the other side of the street grilling some arepas while singing some old ballenato and his wife trying to shut him up by throwing her sandals at him; just a normal morning for a South American country.

I lay on the couch in the living room, with a coffee at hand watching TV as my grandma still in the kitchen, fried some fish and bananas for breakfast/lunch and the smell propagated throghout the villa. Grandma as always planning the day talking non stop with me about what she is going to do and about how grandpa is so stubborn.

Then a friend walks in the door and greets both me and abuela, loudly as it is accustomed in Venezuela, while this dog comes out from under the kitchen table and starts barking at him.

After a little while my friend was chatting with grandma and dog, he joyfully and loudly goes "Hey Will wanna come my place with me, Chompira, julio and Cesar? Gotta show you guys something!" so I listen to him, then grandma talking to the radio, yawn, say "alright, lets go" kick the dog and move out with Simon.

And you see these two guys walking up the rocky streets of the villa, under the heavy sun, dry sand and soft wind, loudly talking crap, Simon shuffling his keys in hand, both dressed the same; blue shorts, yellow shirt and flip flops. Dogs barking behind the fences, parrots talking unappropriate stuff, kids climbing up the trees trying to take down a kite throwing rocks at it and breaking Old Humberto's windows, other youth racing on bikes, some falling off of them, and neighbors fighting to determine who can play Venezuelan folkloric music the loudest waving hi to these two guys as they walk by.

We get to Simon's place and there they were Chompira, Julio and Cesar, all the three of them staring at a computer monitor. "Epale!" we say and they all anwer back still staring at the screen. "I got a fun game we can play at Click we just got to show it to them and we'll probably make some $$$" Simon said, Chompira, Julio and Cesar stood up and turned around instantly and the 5 of us went straight out asking Simon which game it was in confusion, he laughed.

"StarCraft hobos" he said "best game ever made!" then the 4 of us look at each other and just laugh ourselves off and I say "wtf dude? there's non better game than CS!" And we were in front of the door of Click Cyber Cafe. Julio opens it and a bunch of smoke comes out as some reggaeton is played and you can hear the noise of mad keyboard tapping. "What's up yo!" says the owner smoking his cigarretes at the door.

"We got sum game yo might want to be interested in man" said Simon "so good game it might brings you some $$ cuz of people wanting to play it!" and after a complex chat on the issues revolving games being installed on the computers, we finally came to an agreement and we were given some initial cash for the idea and SC was accepted into the cafe. I mean how it wouldn't if they had WC3 in there?

Couple of months went by, and my interest in SC were still growing! I had gone way beyond the others and was analyzing the Korean scene by myself. I won some competitions held in Click Cafe and some little amount of $$ as well for getting first place in those. I developed new rivalries, friendships and strategies while my interest in foreign SC kept growing every day.

Simon, Chompira, Julio and Cesar as well as other friends we made know for a fact that StarCraft is not very well known in Venezuela, or in fact, not known at all! I want with my whole heart to get a piece of SC written in the history of every country so that when the day of its death comes, it will rest in peace among the world's nations and its people forever. I want a CJ Entus shirt resting on the body of another nation, on my body

Creativity at its best

+ Show Spoiler +

A year have passed by, yet I could remember it so clearly… it was the day my world turned upside down. A friend of mine opened a video he recently downloaded. He didn’t say anything about the content so I glared at the computer screen awaiting something to pop out. Finally the term Savior: OSL highlight video came flashing on the screen, I was about to ask "who is he?" when my friend told me "just watch". In awe I was watching as I saw plays get implemented so perfectly that I fell in love with their owner. The micro, the macro, and the style… everything was perfect! This was the model of a champion, the definition of the might of the swarm. It was Mae Jae Yoon's perfect play that turned me into the zerg player I am today.

After that day, I was simply following this player's every step. Whatever he was playing I was watching. As he destroyed his opponents one by one, none was able to stop the monster until he started to become more shaky. The 3-0 Bisu destruction before the Shinhan OSL shocked him, and because of that hit his play just went down a tiny bit soon after he won the OSL title. Yeah, but the bad part is that it started and he started slumping… Yet, I looked all my friends face-to-face and said proudly that savior will never die!! However, reality was cruel and the truth soon became the only thing that mattered for everyone. But still, I was not admitting the fact he was gone for! I knew THE SAVIOR will return to the glory he once had! My dreams are on what happened to savior are limitless! I would dream that he won another MSL and returned to his glory every once in a while. Two weeks ago I dreamt that I was somehow getting married to savior which was totally freaky! But the symbolism in those dream show how attached I am to this great character. Savior didn’t suddenly lose his skills; it's just a mental break he severely suffered from. I didn’t and ever would vote against savior under any circumstances. My love for savior and my respect to him will never end no matter what.

CJ Entus, savior's magnificent team went through lots of hardships to get to where they are now. They are a hardworking team that really holds together and have their own chemistry. As my love for savior grew so as my love and respect for CJ. Now finally getting this opportunity, to receive something that has CJ's essence on it and the hard work of all the team's sweat and tears gives me an inexpressible feeling. Savior and CJ will remain my favorite player and team respectively forever and ever. If I get a chance to hold on to something that gives any memories of them, I will cherish that thing for the rest of my life.

Well, for this post to make sense, you need some background information about me. I am a cadet at the United States Military Academy, and one of the classes that I take is advanced tactics and warfighting. For class we are given situations and must draw tactical solutions and COA (course of action) sketches depicting how we would complete a given mission.

Here is the prompt I was given and my solution to the prompt:
+ Show Spoiler +

You are the Platoon Leader for 1/A/1-76IN, a light infantry platoon that is currently task organized with two rifle squads and two machine gun teams (M240B equipped). 1-76IN (Task Force Knight) recently replaced a Marine Unit that had landed at the nearby port city of New Zeda in the country of Zedastan. The established government is struggling with counter-insurgency, and there have been numerous high-profile kidnappings, bombings, and assassinations in the past month. Conditions have deteriorated to a point requiring international intervention.

The city of New Zeda is home to over 1 million people most of whom require humanitarian relief. The main enemy force, the Zedastan People’s Army (ZPA), retreated from the city upon the arrival of the Marines. ZPA is a large but untrained militia with mostly small arms, machine guns, rocket-propelled grenades and a few mortars (60mm). The enemy does have access to modern communications such as cell phones and civilian market global positioning systems.

Task Force Knight is the security element for both U.S. and international aid organizations that are feeding the estimated 300,000 refugees. Your company, A/1-76IN, has been tasked with ensuring that ZPA forces do not return to the city to interfere with humanitarian efforts. Your platoon has been tasked with conducting ambush patrols outside New Zeda in order to prevent the ZPA from disrupting the humanitarian efforts in the city.

Your platoon has been on patrol for over an hour. The Task Force perimeter and city outskirts are approximately 3 kilometers to the south. 2nd Squad, the lead element of your platoon, reports visual contact with what appears to be an enemy patrol armed with AK-47s moving south toward your position. There appear to be at least 10 enemy troops with this patrol. They have not detected your presence.

You decide to establish a hasty ambush oriented to the northwest (positioning your forces as shown in the diagram below). You position yourself with 2nd Squad and your PSG with the two machine gun teams. You radio the Company Commander to report the situation. As you are about to initiate your ambush, the 1st Squad Leader reports visual contact with another enemy unit which is moving in your direction along a route to your rear. The Squad Leader counts at least 6 enemy fighters with more following. He’s not sure how many. The team leader also notes at least one RPK medium machine gun. It is now 1730 and EENT (end evening nautical twilight) is 10 minutes away.


What do you do?

In the next 30 seconds, decide what actions your platoon will take. Write down your decision on a piece of paper and be prepared to brief your rationale.

NO QUESTIONS!


Since I currently had an A in the class and the assignment wasn't worth all that much, this is roughly what I submitted (I redid my submission in Microsoft Paint so that I could post it here)

[image loading]

[image loading]


Well, as expected, my instructor was none too happy with my submission asking "What the Fuck is this shit cadet?!" I haven't recieved my grade yet, but I am expecting a zero.

Anyway, how does this apply to CJ you may ask? Without Saviour's dominance that "Saved" the zerg race, shennanigans like this would not be possible. I might as well have cited Saviour at the bottom of my submission, because without him, there would be nothing but PvT.

(I noticed that you cant really read the text I put next to the images on the tactical overlay, but you can get to the original image in full size here. Please use the full size image when judging my submission if possible. If not please let me know and I will type out what is said on the overlay. Thanks. http://img228.imageshack.us/my.php?image=scentrylk5.jpg)

EDIT: 2 seconds after posting it I found that imageshack is not working, so here is what the little quotes say starting at 9 and going in a clockwise direction

"Lurkers from main hive with overlord support set up stop lurker position IOT ambush and destroy enemy terran forces coming from the NW"

"Force 2, along with force 1 destroys enemy infantry using a pinscir movement"

"Defilers cast Dark swarm IOT disrupt enemy infantry and provide cover for friendly forces"

"Force 1 of Ultralisks and zerglings attack enemy infantry with force 2 using a pinscir movement"

"Hydralisks are ordered to morph into lurkers, canalizing enemy movement and blocking the intersection"

"The endstate of my mission is all hives and hatcheries defended, all enemy forces destroyed, and enough friendly forces surviving to stage an assault on the enemy's secondary base of operations (natural expansion). Tasks must be completed NLT 070530SEP08. The main effort (ME) for this group is the ultraling forces, all other forces are in place to help support the mission of the ultraling forces, which is the destruction of the unknown group of enemy infantry. (Intell guys need to scout better imo."

To the tune of "Sexyback" by Justin Timberlake"

I’m bringing sAviOr back
Them other gamers don’t know how to act
I think you're special, why don’t you come back?
So practice more, take the MSL back.

Take 'em to the bridge

sAviOr babe,
If you attack then Bisu is your slave
And then you’ll whip him with a zergling rape,
Send out the mutas and make him go ape.

Take 'em to the chorus

Come on man
Go ahead, be gone with it
You gotta come back
Go ahead, be gone with it
VIP
Go ahead, be gone with it
Start a winning streak
Go ahead, be gone with it
Take ‘em down with your hydra spit
Go ahead, be gone with it
Make Bisu quit
Go ahead, be gone with it
Use your wit and guile
Go ahead, be gone with it
Do it scourge style
Go ahead, be gone with it
And now Bisu is gone
Go ahead, be gone with it

Now Bisu is gone
Go ahead, be gone with it
[Repeat 6 times]

Now Bisu is gone

I’m bringing sAviOr back
Cause he’s the best one of the CJ pack.
He’s gonna make up for the things they lack.
Don’t let Flash win with another attack.

Take 'em to the bridge

sAviOr babe
Flash is nothing but a pawn in your game.
If he faces you you know that he’s made.
You’ll beat him so bad he’ll never get laid.

Take 'em to the chorus

Come on man
Go ahead, be gone with it
You gotta come back
Go ahead, be gone with it
VIP
Go ahead, be gone with it
Huge winning streak
Go ahead, be gone with it
He’ll go crazy, he’ll throw a fit
Go ahead, be gone with it
Command Center hit!
Go ahead, be gone with it
Use your wit and guile
Go ahead, be gone with it
Harass a while
Go ahead, be gone with it
And now Flash is gone
Go ahead, be gone with it

And now Flash is gone
Go ahead, be gone with it
[Repeat 6 times]

And now Flash is gone

I’m bringing sAviOr back
All gamers better watch how he attacks.
He’ll pwn MSL in two seconds flat.
I see it now “FireBatHero take that!”

Take 'em to the chorus

Come on man
Go ahead, be gone with it
You gotta come back
Go ahead, be gone with it
VIP
Go ahead, be gone with it
Huge winning streak
Go ahead, be gone with it
Use four pool, rush with it.
Go ahead, be gone with it
sAviOr is the shit!
Go ahead, be gone with it
Use your wit and guile
Go ahead, be gone with it
Defiler style
Go ahead, be gone with it
And FireBatHero’s gone
Go ahead, be gone with it

FireBatHero’s gone
Go ahead, be gone with it
[Repeat 6 times]

Now they all are gone.

Colosseum of Pride

By this point my closer friends all know about Starcraft and how much time I put into it. While they can accept this "game" as a hobby and past-time, they can't see that it's much more than that.

Starcraft to me is more than one endeavor of the great scheme of life, it's one which has left quite an impact on my life and the lives of ten's of thousands. It makes up a portion of who we serious Starcraft players are. The mark it leaves is permanent, but it's a mark which can normally only subtly be found on the outside. That mark, the impression Starcraft leaves in us forever, is Pride. The competitive edge of Starcraft which drives us to win is undoubtedly pride; it is what makes us even lose sleep playing "just one more game".

CJ Entus is a very good example of the embodiment of Pride through Starcraft. I can't fathom any player in this great team ever not wearing their logo with great pride and dignity. The team has had some of the most successful players in the world, of all time. The biggest names of this team, Titans of Saturn in their own right, are Ma Jae Yoon, Savior[Gm], the Maestro, and Seo Ji Hoon, Xellos[yG], The Perfect Terran.

CJ Entus also boasts of OSL winner GGPlay, Iris, Much[Gm], Kwanro[saM], and Effort. They all represent their team with some success at the very top of the pinnacle of skill in this great game. Even if all of these gamers cannot boast of the dominance of the absolute best, they still represent CJ Entus with great pride, skill, and even success.

Much closer to home for me is IdrA, currently the only non-Korean gamer in a Korean progaming team. Idra happens to be from the same country as I, the United States of America, easily in and of itself one of the most Prideful nations on Earth. A strong player in the foreign ranks, Idra now has the pride of most of the planet on his shoulders as he represents the foreign world. Greg Fields is a player who you can easily see pride in him, in his interviews and in his success.

The point of all this, is that each and every player I've mentioned in this great team has some outward symbol of their pride in themselves and this Colosseum of Pride, Starcraft. Living outside of Korea, in a society not accepting of computer gaming as a hobby, let alone as a competitive sport, I have nothing but perhaps my word to show off my pride as a Starcraft player. I love this game just as much as these progamers, I have that pride too, but no way to express it to the world. This CJ Entus T-Shirt is my chance to outwardly wear my pride, and to support the epitome of my race, Savior, and my fellow countryman Idra.

Here is mine ^^

Sport of My life

I was not a great player. I didn’t know many secrets in Starcraft. I didn’t play as much as every other player. I was just obsessed with a genius game, exploring as a newbie. Nothing did I know that it was going to be the start of something new.
I had heard rumours of great legends like Boxer and Nada. I didn’t watch replays, or any VODs. I just knew that this game amazed me, and the explorer that I am, I couldn’t stop playing. Then finally, fall 2004, a spark was lit. I got my first broadband connection at home, which allowed me to watch the WCG2004 live-stream, and to play Starcraft without having to think of hours or cost. Listening to Wackstevens enthusiastic American voice cracked me up. That WCG, made my heart sparkle. Among all the foreign players, I was exited who was going to crush the Koreans. But after watching Day[9] vs. a Korean Terran, I was so amazed by this Korean Terran player. Since I was a Terran player myself, I just kept on watching. I had seen a new legend, this time, with my own eyes. His name was Xellos. His play just seemed to perfect. I wanted to play like him. Little did I know that my Starcraft world was going to experience darker ages.
Drums of War reached my ears, and as the explorer I was, I got drawn into a whole new world with dragons, murlocs and trolls. It took 2 years, before rumours of another legend reached my ears in Azeroth. It was said that he was far greater than any Zerg before him. It drew my attention back into Starcraft. My former hero had lost the last WCG, and now he was out of the MSL as well. I heard that his team-mate was still in the tournament. I found a link that led me to watch a final match: SaviOr vs. Silver. I was exited; a new legend was sitting there, defending his title, among hundreds of cheering fans. I was amazed by his play. I was surprised by the setting and the enthusiasm of this scene I was witnessing. It made me want to watch more.

Ever since that day, late 2006 when SaviOr won his 3rd MSL. The sparks in me, flamed up. And throughout 2007, the amount of VODs I watched grew rapidly. My favourite team CJ did well in proleague, even though they had two final losses. I followed eagerly while new talent rose from the team. Terran players like Iris and Darkelf made me want to play even more. And every morning I turned on my computer, but this time, It was not to play, but to watch and exiting game of Starcraft. I dropped several classes in college only to watch the Korean e-sport scene, which now had grown to a flickering flame in my heart. I had truly found the sport that my manliness desired.
