Why You Will Never Be Good at World of Warcraft

January 28th, 2009

We’ve all seen the threads on the WoW PvP forums, Arena Junkies and even Elitist Jerks. Cries for help, asking for any and all tips for improvement, practically begging for a drop of information from the various gods amongst men known as “professional gamers.” However, no matter how many streams you may watch or PvP videos you may watch (with and without lens flares), you’re still going to be absolutely terrible at this game.

ArenaCast Live – 11/28 Edition – SK-Gaming’s New Teams

January 28th, 2009

Tonight was a pretty fun show. We spoke with Sebastian ‘Gosey’ Selin from Sk-Gaming about the two new Sk-Gaming teams (Serennia/Realz/Sck and Council of Mages). Sck joins us on the show, but doesn’t say anything until halfway through, and Realz eventually comes on after he gets offa work.

The usual cast is here except for Sam ‘oplaid’ Lingle who was scrimming for a finals match in Team Fortress 2 tomorrow. He also just announced a sponsorship with CompLexity Gaming. Grats. Read more…

On the topic of streams being down…

January 26th, 2009

I apologize first and foremost about the streams being down over the weekend. The host that we’re using currently is on loan from a friend (and again, thanks Bill!) and his server went down sometime Saturday. He wasn’t able to get it back up and running till today. Again, I apologize but all the streams should be working now. You can stream now in the article HERE. Again I apologize for this.

Look for more announcements this week and a great show on Wednesday. See you then.

p.s. The Xfire bot should be up relatively soon, just waiting on a few things.

Arena Watch Update, iTunes and Zune

January 22nd, 2009

“Earlier this week the Arenas were temporarily disabled while we investigated rating calculation discrepancies. After thorough research, we have identified and created a solution to the issue, and we will be bringing the Arenas back online following off hours maintenance with the fix in place. Please be aware that because the rating issues were extensive, we have decided to reset Arena team and personal ratings to last week’s status. In addition, items and achievements which were gained illegitimately with incorrect ratings will be removed, and the spent arena points refunded. We thank you for your patience while we worked through these issues related to the Arenas.” – Kalgan Read more…

Arena Watch Day 2

January 22nd, 2009

Yeah, I know. I didn’t do a Day One watch post. But Two is always better then one, because as Three Dog Night said “One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do.” Read more…
