My Counterstrike Team
OK,
So, I wrote a post a while back about professional video gaming. Well, I’ve decided to start my own Counter-Strike (www.counter-strike.net) team. A team consists of six players, all with their own copy of the game, and a league to play in. We would play in the semi-pro leage, the CAL (CyberAthlete Amateur League, which is a subsidiary of the CyberAthlete Professional League). I’ve hit a couple of roadblocks, right now, which will be remedied in time.
- I need a complete team roster, which consists of six people. I have two definite people, and one possible.
- Everyone needs a copy of the game. Pirating a game and attempting to play in the league is cause for a 35 year ban. Yeah, they’re that strict.
- We need a place to practice, then play the games, preferably under one roof. The games are played online against the other players, but I have dialup internet :(, so that would hinder my brother and me.
Other than that, we would be good. Unfortunately, for this, I will be gone during the summer, so we would have to wait one or two seasons (the gaming season is about three months, and the next season begins immediately after one concludes). That will give us enough time to get the roster together, and get the game for everyone, and find a place to practice/play. It will happen and when the fall or winter season comes around, we should be ready.
