I was in it and there's literally no sponsorship at all imo. Yea, they get some shirts and hardware once in a while, but you cannot really call that sponsored. ToT is the ONLY one of the big dogs that never needed any money at all to be the Best of the Best, and imo that's also what separates them from others. Shows that money isn't all. Team spirit f t w. And ofc shows how much of a great leader Mr Semke is. | ||

This may continue long after as well - we see this with the much hated War3 Well, even though his name is SK, clearly not a team that supports War3. Probably a very mediocre US Counterstrike team. | ||

We used to have a War3 division but I've released everyone due to maturity issues. We currently have no CS division (again, released due to maturity issues). I'd say our biggest wins in 2008 were the Wimbley Stadium UT3 event (£30,000) and taking second at nVision 2008 in CoD4 (as well as several other major LAN wins there). Been around for over 3 years attending major LANs in the games we focus on (though again, almost no CS). I don't really want to get into our team right now because I enjoy lurking more than anything else. There will certainly be a time when we'll be looking for new RTS players, but past maturity issues have made that a difficult point. Just an SC fan and also a team owner so I thought I'd share my view on the situation. If players want their scene to grow they need to look more at what they can do for the team supporting them and less at what they should do for themselves. Especially in this era... sponsorship funding has really run dry in the states and is beginning to slow in EU and Asia. | ||

I know it's early in the season, but could you write an opinions article on the new College Starleague? Do you foresee it taking off or fading out like these foreign teams? | ||

It's on a huge ass scale, with teams across the nation, with a lot of dependence on people willing to work and keep things organized without any real incentive (i.e. monies). | ||

BOSS --> xlo ---> then Bartar ( that was the name of their admin right ? ) retired.
