lol

good new for our beloved toxjq

;-)

Eh? More information please..

He should just use his own money to go.

He's beating av3k/cypher pretty bad @ their bootcamp, so spend $2k to go to quakecon to win $8k in duel might be worthwhile..

(especially if he wins asus +zotac this week)

The correct play is to contact fatality and ask him to sponsor strenx.

#1. It's good PR for fatality to sponsor someone he believes to be good at a video game + shows fatality still being a nice guy that believes in competitive spirit of video games.
#2. If he leaks that NEVO promised to sponsor strenx but the organization died leaving this pro player not able to go to a major lan, and then sponsors strenx, he looks like he really cares about gaming.
#3. Strenx is that good to win and make fatality look good (shows his good judgement)
#4. He has enough $ to do it and should give back to quake, by giving us someone to spec that we like

Cooller should try to get [M5] to sponsor strenx so he can have someone to TDM with or hes fucked, lol

9 zotac cups are enough to cover his round trip airfare, 2 more for hotel, he has won like 44 this year alone. I dont get it, he just likes attention somehow.

he was saving for his driving license, maybe that's it

or maybe he spends the money hes winning on something else?

im pretty sure he doesnt have +2k€ extra to spend for quakecon now right away, neither does many other ppl.

Somehow im not suprised at all

@ asus.ql
[12:52] <strenx_> sound
[12:52] <strenx_> when i play
[12:52] <strenx_> my sound is fucked up
[12:52] <strenx_> i just lost all motivation lol =p
[12:52] <oooo-> strenx_ is it sure now that you wont go? :(
[12:52] <strenx_> yes
[12:52] <strenx_> sure

[12:54] <DeLzy> strenx_ how come nevo didnt fullfill the promise? no contract whatsoever just their word?
[12:54] <strenx_> i dont wanna talk about it
[12:54] <strenx_> im just pissed now

All of this seems really fucking childish

lets donate!

yes, strenx is such a a nice guy so i would love to give him my money


LOL NO

ill donate $1. Get 1000 others to do the same = no problem

Thats not enuff

Ps. take a look at how much flights cost, add hotel cost into it + living, 3x ur shit.

2badsosad, cry me a river, build a bridge, and then get the fuck over it.

sup?

the problem is if he had bought the flight 3-4 months ago it would have been really cheap, if you buy 7 days before ur flight, its ridiculously expensive.

There was no info about Quakecon 3-4 months ago :9

Happens to be dead now

[14:04] * Q changes topic to '«»Next Evolution. ESC «»We are over it seems, zac is has been so inactive we have nothing for squads so guys we are so sorry.. «»'

He's prolly gone with the money -.-

Like there was any money, one guy got used hard there and paid so far pretty much everything from hes own pocket

So who fucked em up? Sponsor?

http://mynevo.co.uk/news/45/Over-and-out

k so much pro gayming

next evolution ...

No strenx, no k1llsen

GAY

Spart1e is going to quakecon?

he paid for himself, nevo was going to refund him... os hes going

thats nice! i'll hope strenx can go too :/

Shame really. Probably just a bunch of kids pretending they had the backing to send players worldwide - very immature way to release the information publicly as well: "havent seen our manager for 2 weeks, its over, ciao"

he is going with another team

sk?

that would make sense

No it wouldn't.

you are right, fnatic will support him xD

srs. maybe as he is already boot camping with cypher and avek.

more infos pls!

Fnatic are sending him?

hes going :)

cut the bullshit

for u was more like "he is going :(("

or u expect to pass ur group by voting?

apparently someone at fnatic is smart enough to spend money on strenx after all :-)

Kevin "Strenx" Baeza
nevermind about nevo! fnatic took me back and send me to Quakecon !!!

surprise!

rofl. progaming is so funny.

Its been already 5 times he quits quake and 4 times he cant go then can go to quakecon back and fort in less than two months.....................


ZZZZ stop the saga already

It's even more hilarious than dkt's front page news saying he retires when to be honest he never did....

Absolutely... now I wonder what´s going to happen during and after the tournament ._.

Cant say what happens during but after Rapha has that big statement he wants to announce. Guess he might be the one "retiring" now :-D

... only to comeback to play in DHW...

Id rather have them say they will contribute and give back to the community somehow :P

The more drama and shit going on in Quake, the better. Any publicity is good.

can only agree at the state we're at.

Just dont be dillusionnal, when rapha can certainly make 5k out of 3 days beeing sponsored, i dont see any reason to quit.

its nothing new that some retarded 20 year old brit makes a new org, promises lots of money and sponsors, then flops after a week....

He's 27

by 20 year old i meant in his 20's, seen this happen ALOT over my gaming years

Pro gaming is a pipe dream we need to forget about (apart from sc in Korea obviously)
Play games for the intended purpose!

I'm sure people said the same thing 100 years ago, when soccer was first getting started. Soccer is a game too, didn't stop it from becoming a billion-dollar business.

I dont get it, in soccer the best teams spend more money than they get from it, it all works just because the guys running teams are super rich bitches with incomes from REAL WORLD.

* brand sponsorship, nike / adidas / vodaphone
* tv broadcasting rights
* ticket sales

its not really about super rich guys pouring money, more like public pouring money indirectly.

The fact is that THE REALLY best football clubs like barcelona just pour so fucking much money in the game that its inpossible to get everything back
