Where do you keep getting these pastebins?

Kaneco, The EU scene does not have to be be "ESEA's bitch" as you guys already have a well established alternative league which caters to every skill tier. For us here in the US, UGC doesn't really cover much more than the lower levels of play for 6s. I really don't expect the EU scene to stick around with ESEA past this season at this point anyways.

Can you guys stop with the lame puns?

This one was the week before i46, good effort though

Clearly showing his age

This is really influencing my next choice in Graphics cards (looking at the gtx 650 to boost in particular). Already planning on getting the Asus monitor.

It's not

ESEA's customer support has been extremely lack-luster ever since the Bitcoin incident (and definitely before that). Right now they appear to be in shambles internally with the loss of their former main client coder. Customer support should be something that ESEA has to have if they want to keep themselves afloat, and they should have already been improving their customer support because of the bitcoin stuff, but it's only gotten worse.

In the EU, ETF2L has been the go to league for many seasons, which is a free to enter league. ESEA has now tried to come in to push a league system that has failed time and time again, when many players simply don't want to pay for a league. And the first impression they got was a client that was down for three days, and piss-poor responses from the coders who were seemingly content with jacking off and doing nothing while their paying customers became increasingly frustrated. First impressions matter, especially when you're trying to get paying customers to come into your new system. What the EU players saw was perhaps the most unorganized three days possible. I don't think many euro's are going to come back after seeing that.

As for alternatives to ESEA, CEVO and UGC are right now our two best options (yet not many people are supporting CEVO for some unknown reason). Both of them do not have the money and the capability to host LAN events like ESEA does, or the other features that ESEA currently has going for them. Until either alternative starts to become more viable than ESEA, we don't really have much of a choice

This was something I started with a while ago but haven't gotten around to adding a timer and such.

I've been dual booting Xubuntu 13.04 for a while, but recently fucked up my installation when upgrading to 13.10. So I was looking at potential other options to see if there was anything better than Xubuntu

Don't worry guys, I got this

I don't see why there would be
