do you really need all those flags when its clearly "Swedish Championship of Quake Live"

but... Laskij is ukranian Keepo someone fix

Well, everytime I dont use flags, someone edits the post and adds the frikkin flags, so now I just added them right from the start! :P

whatever you do they'll always find some reason to edit it. it's the only time they get to feel important.

if you think editing is fun, try to edit one past news from Slasher ;)

lulz about the flags.

Looking forward to watching the streams, should be nice.

I have to ask.. The jpeg brackets, is that serious? Is that really by choice or you had nobody to help or code for website?

Mostly the later option. :)

But I also feel really comforable using Photoshop, and with 64 players to arrange, I wanted to use something that wasnt in the way of me getting a good view of everything. It all could have been a whole lot more messy if I had tried to work with a tool I cant handle.

But I think it turned out ok, after all. It does what its supposed to do: gives an overview of the brackets. :)

I would've excepted something a bit more "fancy" for an event like this but it doesn't really matter I guess, looks clean and like you say it does what it's supposed to do. Anyway these days "fancy" doesn't always mean more professional.

Go ahead and put something together and I bett minimia won't turn down the help!

It wasn't meant as criticism, I was simply curious and it was my initial intend to offer help actually. But after Minimia's reply I figured he seemed fine with his system and I was a bit too late (tournament started already and I am no expert nor a fast coder). And also because I'm some random noob to this community and from Canada (not that it matters for something online, but it's a Swedish cup still) maybe it would've been a little strange but I could be wrong.

Now I feel bad, though.

I'm not sure, but I don't think that's used anymore. It isn't really used anymore anyways. Kids nowadays know more English than most adults from the era of "Läderlappen".

You should know that the direct translation from Batman would be Bat= Fladdermus. Man = Man.

"Fladdermusmannen" is a whole lot worse than Batman and a valid reason to use an actual other name for a comic book, made for children. :D

Also, that troll image is kind of reaching really far, and probably made by a German. Using "Läderlappen" as some kind of spoof against the Swedish language looks like the act of a really, really desperate German, French or Spainard.
Because --> Meanwhile in Germany, France and Spain, pretty much every single program on TV is dubbed. Still. In 2014.
If I lived in one of those countries, I'd be pretty embarrassed too and desperate to laugh it off on someone else.

The point is, that troll image is too desperate to really earn anything other than a gentle pat on the head.

If you want to find something funny however, look over to our neighbors Norway for some really, really hilarious translations of comic book heroes - still in use today.

LADERLAPPEN

whats wrong with dubbed tv? there are a lot of professional voice actors in germany and why would we exclude our tv program from old folks / handicapped people / just casual people that have a hard time with english because they dont need it for their life.

yes you maybe right, that picture may have been done by a german because "läderlappen" and "fladdermus" are actually germanic words. but what the heck.. its meant to be funny and funny it is. relax :D

"Läderlappen" is ridiculous and Swedish translators annoys me overall. Anything directly translated from English to Swedish is hilariously bad. That's why I get frustrated by this particular picture. Because its right! But what makes me annoyed is the fact that most of the countries mentioned in the picture is a hell of a lot worse. :D

Its like a Chinese making fun of a Japanese for lisping. Also, knowing pretty much every single person living in Sweden speaks English fluently - it gets tedious when you're made fun of by some stupid and unimaginative translated nickname made 50-60 years ago.

As for dubbed TV:
Maybe you can learn to read subtitles like the rest of the human race? I think it would be obvious, knowing most of you Germans probably went through school(?).
Its fking annoying when I'm traveling through your country on business. You can't watch anything on TV without getting disgusted by the poorly done voice acting! :D

/nuf raged

"that troll image is too desperate to really earn anything other than a gentle pat on the head."

Sure got you going lol.

No one cares.

sub instead of dub for the whole nation because of some visitors that may want to watch tv over here? bitch please..
only thing that kinda annoys me is the live translation overlay in interviews. but for movies i go with either the original or the dub (which are top quality, no idea what junk you watched :P)

LOL have you completly missed this kind of pics, there are countless, also trolling all the other languages you mentioned, mostly German, you need to chill seriously, its all in good fun

:< too bad fox dropped out

major this please, this should be on the front page!

Am I dreaming? Lakerman is a donator and Z4muz playing.

why the fuck did prockz drop out?

some drama with playing as another player, rigging matches, or some such nonsense - zoot was talking about it on stream yesterday but i wasn't following that closely so i don't have all the details.

wtf :O that sucks, he would have been a top3 contender easily

And why isnt arrw playing? I know hes been more or less inactive the last 10 years but he is still good enough to beat kronic on the older maps.. Anyway will be fun watching zamuz play although he seems to be somewhat out of shape.

because he hits harder than toxjq in q3

We need a German league again (

HAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

FAZZ

Good job sweden

A1r-r4g3 Not playing this due to injury? he must of raged hard when he hit his keyboard upside down

really glad zamuz turned up and wasn't afraid to take it to his opponent on the newer maps (despite lacking the knowledge). hopefully playing empish gave him some good experience for his next games, and hopefully he turns up with a bit more practice.

Ye really good to see him play again, but you can see allready from his movement that he is out of shape. In shape and when active he is prolly the best swedish dueler.

even if prockz were in shape and active? guy is like swedish p0ni

I do think zamuz in top shape is better, he got 2nd at dreamhack 2009 when he did practise. He was the best swedish dueler around in q3 for a long time when he was active never won anything big afaik. Got alot of 2nd places behind cooller tho, they did have close games but cooller always edged it.

Yeah I'm aware of zamuz's achievements but just seeing what shape he's in now I imagine it would take him ages to get back into shape... where as I remember prockz playing the occasional zotac without playing for months and just completely beasting it as if he was born in the arena. Makes me think prockz currently has more potential than zamuz (if that makes any sense!)

Yep might be the case but will never know i guess since prockz doesnt seem to be interested in competing :(
But zamuz had been inactive for several years when he got 2nd at dreamhack, he did practise quite a bit beforehand tho but still a great achievment since he was out of the loop and hadnt really played a tournament in years. He didnt play q4 at all afaik.

Z4muz:

1st ESWC 2004 (Quake III Arena Masters)

1st Swedish Gaming Open 2002(minor swedish tournament 5000 sek won)

Other then that i don't really know. There are some tournaments that i would assume he won but who knows?

Other then that you were right

QLAN:

1. esu-Cooller (Moscow, Russia): 1,200 euros
2. All*Z4muZ (Sweden): 720 euros

QuakeCon 2003:

1. John 'ZeRo4' Hill (San Diego, California): $25,000
2. Alexander 'Z4muZ' Ihrfors (Sweden): $12,000

QLAN 2:

1. fps-fooKi (Sweden)
2. Paul '519.czm' Nelson (Massachussetts)
3. All*Z4muZ (Sweden)
4. Anton '4z-Cooller' Singov (Moscow, Russia)

He also played for All* but i don't know if they won anything.

Edit: worth to mention.

CPL Winter Championships 2006 (Quake III Arena)

1st United States czm
2nd China Jibo
3rd Russian Federation Cooller
4th Sweden Z4muZ

.......

9th-12th
United States Daler
Turkey Raistlin
United States rapha <----
China RocketBoy

Yeah but 2004 was a team effort, its still a win ofc.

Why inactive Z4muz have 40-50 percent lg?

"Avg. Win Opponent Elo: 1599"
source

the same reason inactive strenx has 40-50 lg

And the reason is inactivity.

From urban dictionary.

poomer

I just love girls with poomers!

I was really looking forward to this thanks to prockz...
Luckily there's a lot of great talent left!

prox: du borde ju ha lirat denna tour for oss andra som inte langre kan :)

Please minima or some admin, change time in OP to universal timezone :/

should work now

thx

to Zoot for living in a uncontaminated world where CR7 means nothing.

I love you man! :)

what does it mean?

nice try cristiano

Fox dropped out???? D:. Apart from maybe zamuz, this tournament has so much less hype now. I just wish it was clear before the tournament started that Fox wasn't going to play.

but there's still ualaskid to look forward to! omfg can't WAIT

Well, Im sorry, there was not much I could do about it. But I do look forward to see Fox play in the tournament you are organizing.

kurv3n - stickan was a really enjoyable game. wp to both!

the tall frenchie and the short mexican are making good coverage of this shiz.

gogogo funnyb!

It seriously make me fucking sad to the bone when I see a beautiful concept and idea like this get so unhyped.
I dont wanna be that guy, but lets be honest if I had been in this tournament it would have been 33x the hype.

But humble Syncerror dont wanna let the community grow and have more hype, nope. just gonna keep zhu banned for 3 more fucking years even though im top 3 in sweden and top 33 in EU. Also im one of the most colourful players that creates alot of contreversy,
U DONT REALISE i would fucking make the livestreams go up to like 33k viewers and get this game the attention it needs. Ur blowing this opportunity Sync.. I hope you dont regret it.

I realise how to make this game bigger than you do no fucking offence, and not at all in anything but legit terms.
If you think im bullshitting you could try release me for a while, and then look on your statistics after a month, probably will have an increase of the average signed up players per month to this game by 33%. Do you even realise how much 33% is? Have you even seen numbers like that besides on your rail accuracy?

We all want the same thing in the end right? Sync; you want your company to grow so that you can earn more money and live a more happy life. I want to play this game so that I can do a thing I enjoy, I will enjoy quake even more if it would be bigger. So I would make my most effort to ensure that it would grow. We're all on the same fucking team brah.

inb4 sync response: "Nope i dont regret it" (inb4 93% plused).

sorry for cursing so fucking much

I'll admit you're top 3 in trolling.

Ur blewing

inb4 ban for 33 more years.

its not syncerrors company tho. hes just a normal employee.

sync LOVES quake (in a nostalgic kind of way). but you are right about the part that hes very reluctant when it comes to making decisions, or taking new steps.

i supported your cause in the beginning. a little later you turned into a massive troll, which made me lose the respect for you.

however, im still supporting your unban, just because keeping you unbanned is unreasonable. if you cheated again with WH or anything else, it would be immediately noticed because the community in the top-end of duelers is small, it would be quickly noticed once you cheated.

"keeping you unbanned is unreasonable" :)) i agree teehee

stop doing crossfit, maybe then u will get unbanned

please not here

You really seem to have improved at duel while being banned!! Cause i cant recall even one minor duel achievment by you.

Oh no please don't go there.

I also thought Zhu sucked till i saw his livestreaming, hate the dude if you want but the guy is really good, probably on of the best toxicity players ever. I think Spart1e can agree on that.

Lol

Zhu is a good dueller, but far from being "one of the best toxicity players ever". Actually, im pretty sure Spart1e would beat him at least 80% of the time.

Winning one map from a pro doesn't mean that you are on their level. And afaik the famous zhu vs spartie game happened when spartie barely knew the map.

Zhu is probably a decent 2k dueller, with room to grow. Nothing more, nothing less (hey, thats already impressive, i wish i was 2k elo!)

Zhu would be far over 2k considering he only gets to play around 150 games before getting banned. I've seen him beating almost every top player on toxicity, its just not recorded.

http://www.qlranks.com/duel/player/zyzz_brah

ok my bad 220 games

Zhu have had 1000 accounts, zhu, zyzz_brah, ath, athnator etc.. I am pretty sure he have played quite a lot more then 220 duels.

the schedule of the week isnt correct?

yeah, looks to be a bit off :/

vod direct link to zamus game pls

i didn't want to plus this :(

fuck it, found it myself.

http://www.twitch.tv/zootlive/c/3545222

twitch vod service useful as always.

That Furious Heights was awesome :DD

No games on stream today? Or already over?

already over, i think :/

Only had 2 matches today, will be more tomorrow :)

>Empish vs. Z4muZ

i remember zamuz as a movement master in q3, or am i wrong.his awareness and aim shows talent and he has selfconfidence. but hes not in top shape.

Yes he used to have really smooth movement.

4,000 viewers atm for zanzan !?

zanzAn wallhacking:
http://www.twitch.tv/zootlive/b/495692344?t=89m32s

(aiming through floor)

you're so clueless it hurts

says the biggest troll on esr

you're so clueless it hurts

says the biggest troll on esr

I thought the exact same thing while watching that match, but just wrote it off as a funny coincidence rather than throwing out some nonsense hackusation. Everyone know girls aren't allowed to have their own money to buy hacks!

Must have been really painful to lose vs a woman, i feel you xron.

losing grip on ur mouse / running it off the pad = hax nowadays?

i accidently click my mouse buttons all the time, try playing with an FK for a month then switching back to any other mouse :P

ZanZan does wallhack for real though, I said this about a year ago.

aiming through the floor...at nothing...rox had already gone through the tele, so either it's a really shitty wallhack, or more likely, she just took her hand off the mouse for a bit (or had some momentary loss of mouse input), hence no mouse movement, only strafing, followed by a random shot when she excitedly put her hand back on the mouse, or mouse input was reestablished and recognized a delayed shot fired. in any case, the evidence you picked for this hackusation does not support your claim, and you, my sad little friend,
simply
look
like
an
ass.

called it : F A I L

Your posts are fail, yes we know.

Thanks god they changed the original stream idea (in part thanks to my suggestion :X ) which was only going to happen for the latter rounds. 3k per day woot!

just a shame it took 5 maps for Z4muZ to beat some no-namer in QL

kroy will win way2ez4lolbarn $$$$$

Im actually laughing at how obvious zanzans wallhack is. Only me seeing it?

Yes, coz it doesn't exist. Stop being a moron

Okay, I dont expect you to believe me yet! It'll show itself

Would be a nice policy.

Catch a cheater, earn unban (promising to don't do it again)

Yeah but, zhu seems to be accusing tons of people. You'd have to actually provide proof, not just act like a shit filled sprinkler and call everyone out.

Zanzan doesn't use any cheats. Been playing with her for 7 months, at least 150 games. If she had a wallhack, I would have noticed. But no, she doesn't. I also don't get how she could lose while using this alleged wallhack? Also, it's pretty ballsy to use cheats on a live stream. Seriously, stop trolling. Or continue. I don't care enough to continue this discussion after this post anyway. I know she plays legit, she knows it, we all know it, except you, who are either trolling or just seeing cheats everywhere for no actual reason, which to me sounds a bit delusional.

Like zoot said, stop being a moron and just use your brain. Everything speaks against you. Not even considering you could be wrong is basically proof that you ARE.

Schedule for week of 21-23 January
