Crash To Desktop - 2 Months In

It's been a long few weeks between wrapping up for the winter and stocking up on food, being ill and working behind the scenes, but now I'm finally able to sit down and write.

I'm sure most of you were expecting to see our round up of Insomnia 44 by now, it was planned to go up this time last week, but looking at the calendar I realised something, this week marks the '2 months in' date of Crash To Desktop going live, and seeing as this is the last month of the year, I thought I'd write something special instead...

What I will be doing is a 'story so far' from my perspective and a look forward to what we have planned for the future - Read on for the full story

i44 Comes to an end...

As the above picture with the one and only Total Biscuit will tell you: the event for us was f*&^&£^ epic..

Expect a full round up of the event sometime soon, there is more pictures and videos to come..

...oh and we have swag, and some of it may be for you.

i44 Starcraft 2 IPL 4 Qualifier Grand Final

The Starcraft 2 IPL qualifiers (at i44) has to undoubtably be the biggest Starcraft related thing to ever make it's way to English soil. We have seen blood, sweat and tears paint the event halls like a canvas, with players like Ryung, TAiLS and Stephano laying waste to all who dared encounter them.

Now we have reached the grand final of the tournament who has the mettle, to take the final step and collect the $10,000 grand prize?

I will update at the tournament's conclusion with its progression, to show you guys who is top of the heap! GLHF!

IGN Pro League 4 Qualifiers - i44

Fists raised to the sky, the victor’s lungs contract as he exhales. He has made it. Thirty-one lie vanquished beneath his feet, unable to make it to the finish line. But this is only the beginning. He has another war to prepare for. The IGN Proleague. 

Sixteen invited professionals. Sixteen players from a 256 strong tournament. A $20,000 prize pool, and one spot in the 4^th IGN Proleague, one of competitive Starcraft II’s most prestigious tournaments.

The fog of war descends on Telford this Sunday, as the 32-man IPL 4 Qualifier takes place. Cast by immensely popular duo John "TotalBiscuit" Bain and Shaun "dApollo" Clark, the tournament ensures a dramatic and energetic conclusion to a weekend of Starcraft II. 

No Sleep Coming with i44

Tomorrow myself and Fatal will be joining members of G3-Radio at Insomnia 44, as the poster states we may invade both G3's live shows Saturday 7-10pm GMT and Sunday 12-3pm GMT, and unconfirmed as of yet but Teldur (aka Dave) of Blastprocess.com may be popping down Sunday for his show 7-9pm GMT.

We'll be there all weekend, hopefully to snap up some pictures, videos and if we are lucky get some interviews.
