Hmm, so Euvan, Weng, Andrew, Parvin, Gav and I went for the SAGC qualifiers this saturday in hopes of seeking world fame.
To our greatest of horrors, instead of the 16 teams that was listed in the official game's site, there were just 120 more people in addition. Say, about 40 teams were present.
The qualifiers were being held near One Utama, at Chronos Cafe which had a sufficient area to the promised 16 teams/80 people quota, but instead, was a hot sweaty prison for over 200 chinese gamers looking for gaming glory.
The marshals were kinda cool, the rules too. But lets not get into that because I know you wouldn't understand.. ;)
Anyway, we arrived there at around 9, but after hours and hours of waiting, we finally got to play at around 3.30 because our team's turn number was 35..
While waiting for our turn to play, we built our confidence while watching noobs suck at the game. But when we finally got to play, our rivals were Low Yat sponsored gamers. They brought their expensive Razer mouses, custom pads, gaming keyboards and headphones.

Gav, sadly didn't have a chance to play as he had to leave early at 2 for a wedding in Seremban.

We knew we were dead, first to 8 wins and we lost 8-0.
Humiliating, I know.
We took off hastily, causing Euvan to accidentally leave his jacket on his seat. He was reluctant to re-enter the cafe, afraid that the audience might start spitting on him.
Oh well, it was great experience after all.. =D
