Not quite the ugliest car ever, is it?

This is the mouse that people have to use while playing in the Fatal1ty shootout. Apparently, though, he uses the same mouse.

The name Silicon Valley now has a new meaning.

Believe me, he spoiled the very best shot harle had on the girl's ass.

Trust me, she did. Otherwise harle would not have taken a picture.

One of the newest MX mice. Add one and it's wheat's mouse!

Just going to go look for Vo0 and gellehsak somewhere in another hall. Failed, though.

Makes you want to love your computer a little bit more.

Modern art or something.

Ade from GIGA TV. scoop owns him.

Not dancing, but you can't complain.

"Alice has a cat." The president of the ICM.

No wonder they went there. That's where the announcing chick was at.

That's the opening ceremony. Fortunately, it was too short to be tedious!

The best Austrian UT2004 player, Falcon. To be owned by lauke tomorrow? We shall see.

RAIL would say he is trying to pull me away from my food or something. I bet he would!

I have nothing to add to this. We spent half of the day in this lounge btw, it was a bit boring most of the time, but if you want food, that's where it's at.

daddy from rK has arrived, quite a cool guy I have to say, but he fucked up one very nice picture for us later in the day!

So much love in his eyes. Guess who took the photo?

We're here at the European Cyber Games with harle. I am doing GGL coverage, he is shoutcasting on stage (with me). Here's a gallery of our adventures so far. Enjoy!

He won't be so jubillant after lauke gets his hands on him!

Bjoerk would be happy.

Sven shoutcasts Gotham Racing 2 and also drives us from the hotel to the event venue.

The police in Germany does not drive normal volkswagens or anything. If you see the police in a German street you are bound to see a vehicle like this one. Fortunately, many of them are really helpful and friendly.

Ok, ok, so I lied.

This is the face of the German WC3 shoutcaster. He was a bit pissed off too, at the stupidity of the people listening to the shoutcast. When he said: no CS games today, he got instant pm's from CS fans asking what time do the games start, and no, they did not mean tomorrow.

The Swiss UT2004 player. He was a pissed off at his country flag being a little bit rectangular instead of square, but I swear it's the fault of the Swiss! Would anyone sane come up with an idea for a square flag?

The European Cyber Games has started. The matches will have shoutcast and many should also be streamed in video. Gamer-FM supported by several guests is providing that coverage. The addresses of the streams are to be found at the following address:

Coverage Info

Unfotrunately, I do not know the schedule for the casted games. The only thing I know at the moment is that Lauke was supposed to play Falcon on stage but most of the players forgot their peripherals. Because of this all tournaments but SC were postponed until tomorrow. You can find out more in this GGL post.

"Hold on, cat's in the studio." (c) Marcus Graham. That's the one, I think.

End of gallery.

Sweden beat USA and raccoon looks all to impudent about it. It looks Paul's about to kick his ass.

No, man, this jacket is definitely not orange.

On the first night wheat was running around the place looking for a phone to call his wife (Cooller actually thinks it's trillian) and only rested when they had a long chat.

Is LF's smile some kind of hint here?

prodx, brescia (yellow hat), blokey and fazz. Notice the wristband on brescia. If you look through this gallery you will notice a lot of that on many players. Wheat gave away a ton of GGL wristbands at the event.

One of the more important persons in Ligarena, although I have no idea what his name is and what he does :(. He has cool glasses, though. Jay trying to pick up some moves in the third pic.

Jason Sylka, do you remember her name?

prodx looks sweet and harmless compared to his brother. Polosatiy would look like a cuddly toy next to this guy!

and the thing on my neck is cooler. Memetic.

No, this is not prodx. Both have "curtains" on their foreheads, as Jay put it, but redemz looks a lot more thuggish.

I bet he'll frame the picture and hang it over his bed. Socrates and blokey with him.

Princeton, zulg, Memetic, socrates, brescia. Like socrates, brescia is always smiling, doesn't matter if you talk a lot of shit in broken Danish about his mom in her presence or not...

I ran out of captions.

uNkind a bit pale as well...

He prolly never managed to get it to back to the hotel room...

I found out in France that fox plays with his headphones put on the other way around and can't play otherwise... Someone told us that if you actually do a Quake sound behind fox and to his left, he would turn right. It didn't work.

You know what happened to Michael Jackson?

uNkind, Cooller and some Belarusian kid (I think).

I'm not really sure who's Fat in this picture.

First pro gamer and first pro shoutcaster.

"You go anywhere near Vo0 I will have you killed."
"You talking to me you Australian trash?"

Daishi is utterly disgusted.

morfez and ZeRo4

Should have sent that to the SK INSIDER FISKERFACE COMPETIT1ON!!!

morfez was the only Russian guy with whom you could communicate in English.

RocketBoy did really poor in UT2004 but I heard only good things about his Doom 3 skills!

prodx and Lord Fuck. I didn't post a million LF photos... Seems like Marcus couldn't get enough of him.

No comment.

Is this not the pimpest suit?

Anonymous, Lord Fuck, wheat, Vo0, Anonymous, Zen, lexx, if-22.

Not telling about this one either.

Zen and the guy who would become THE PK player quite soon...

I hear Zen's a very nice guy, and a promising PK player too.

The Architect tiptoeing next to wheat ;).

That's one of the best CS players out there. Nice shirt, huh?

morfez was the one man Jamaican army at the ESWC!

That's Burnie, the UT2004 winner. I leave the comments to you.

Not really, I gave him not one beer. That's just a rumour.

wheat equipped with a Polish scarf while Z4muZ is wearing Korona Kielce's scarf (my home team!). Wear those proudly!

What did you say about my lg again?!

And what's with the pockets?

fooKi, fazz, fox

Sam looks like Elvis in this picture. On the right we have Memeric (one of the coolest UT players out there) and below wheat is a Dutch CS mysod f****t who was a jerk to prodx and wanted a fight.

I don't know what Cooller's facial expression is supposed to mean but it sure it's something about wheat's mother's lg on the lan.

redemz is most definitely the best armwrestler in gaming. Beaten by Jay once, but that was after he'd wrestled four or five people.

Jay was late for his flight, had some trouble getting to Paris and spent a TON of money on taxis that were driving him around in circles. One of the coolest guys out there.

Here's where most of the armwrestling competitions took place. Left to right: brescia, dreg, Russian CS girl, redemz with his back towards the camera and Hell next to him, Cooller, blokey, Jay, prodx, RaZa.

Discoing, partying and this time Lord Fuck seems to be up to something really evil.

Karl has reason to be joyful. Just look at the medal!

That's the man who took team USA and infinite to the ESWC. Team USA was a success, in his own way, infinite was too.

We're not gonna tell the wife.

Socrates telling raccoon "Sweden will get fucking egd! Egd, motherfucker!"

Trying to check whether he can still walk straight.

The world's best admin. Trust me on this one!

That's where people spent their evenings trying to find free beers.

That's right. Lam and Element.

I don't know who this guy is. Element? :P

"Lam, don't kick me out. I've got my player's pass on me ffs!"

(RAIL will prolly come up with a better caption.)

Zen is having a laugh. I don't know what the hell is wrong with wheat, shouldn't he be taking pictures of the funny stuff instead of just random people laughing?

Looks like Jay spotted someone again. 10 seconds after he's gone.

That's the WireWeight I won off wheat in the very very famous and exhilarating UT2004 match. He has a chance to win it back next time, this time Q3, UT and PainKiller (if we need a decider).

OMFG look at stryfe's eyes! How the hell does he do that? CombatCarl is saying "Interview me, motherfucker."

Carmac and wheat, both in red, both to be found on http://you-know-where.

raoul from aAa begs for some beer and dreg kindly tells him to fuck off. Second time over Princeton's taking the piss at him, blokey's laughing.

The Futuroscope park has lots of shows like those (among many other attractions). They're quite fun, both visually and acoustically.

Lord Fuck (hilarious guy), Hell, prodx and socrates holding the French ESWC guy. Seems like he's enjoying himself and I don't see where Hell's hands are.

Wheat's the American show man, Lam's the French one and socrates just picks up the girls.

Trying to get uNkind to quit smoking. Morfez, sizah, fooKi and n00b (German captain) watching.

Most definitely, redemz and uNkind were the #2 and #1 smokers respectively. I have never seen the Russian without a cigarette...

This time sizah, fooKi, uNkind, Cooller, wheat (always so damn jubilant whenever around Cooller!), prodx and morfez.

Ok, let's try this. Standing left to right:

dreg, Carmac, cha0ticz, behind him Jay, redemz, fooKi, prodx, uNkind, behind him Lord Fuck, brescia

Crouching:

wheat, Memetic, socrates, sizah

socrates is probably wheat's favourite USA player.

infinite turned out to be a man of his word and was wearing this t-shirt for a while, until it got all soaked in his sweat.

The American team warming up before the first games. Nobody was allowed in this area, except if you were a player or showed a staff badge.
