After failing a subject in uni last year, I really need to get myself together. I'm glad to have another chance at passing the subject I failed, but I really don't want it to happen again. Also, I need to start making sure my grades are the best I can get them to be so I can get in to Honours. So I made a pledge to ensure I put study above all else. That pledge horrendously failed.
I had to find a way to get a good study habit going, but also making sure I don't sacrifice too much time to... [Read More]

A delectable selection of photographs I took myself of the momentous occasion. Enjoy!

This event was such a blast to attend! I got into Melbourne earlier in the day and was super excited when I wandered over to Fed Square and was reminded just how awesome this venue was. Right in the heart of Melbourne, surrounded by Museums, Galleries, a historic train station and the stage itself actually in a square that is one of Melbourne's key social meeting places. This is as mainstream, public and accessible a venue as one can hope for and I was so psyched as I stood there watching the... [Read More]
While everyone was rushing to complete single player, i decided instead to complete the multiplayer campaign.
Ok back to retirement now!

p.p.s discovered a broken protoss build ahahah... [Read More]
Hey guys here are some photos I have taken from the Melbourne HotS Launch and the most recent Melbourne Barcraft held by SiliconSports.
I don't claim to be a good photographer but I would love some feedback for you guys if possible (not just on the photos but the overall presentation of everything), I did a lot of point and clicking but you gotta start somewhere I guess! Heart of the Swarm Australian Midnight Launch
^I know the last few photos are smaller than bigfoots schlong, I wasn't... [Read More]
Hey guys it's MiLes here, just putting out a quick vlog which will be the first of many.
My goal is to help develop and grow the esports scene across Australia and anywhere else I can. I plan to do this through being proactive with creating digital media content to bring people relevant coverage of current events across Australia.
I have been playing starcraft well over 2 years now, It's been a blast. But enough is enough. I feel it is time to hang up the old keyboard and mouse and move on. Its been great being apart of a community as great as sc2sea and especially QED. It's been fun Starcraft, but I must move on to greener pastures - Black ops 2 has a lot to offer, like a fun and polite community, diverse vehicle game play and very reasonably priced map packs.
Edit: bah posted on Dot's account. This is my (PiG) blog! Nirvana please change ownership when you see this :s
Video is public now.
So the beta went down and I've been pretty bored. Decided to practice my marine micro.
I finally had time to get into Natural Selection 2. It's a bloody amazing game! The only multiplayer RTS-FPS hybrid that actually kicks ass (or the only one? :P). It's incredibly competitive and is so multifaceted that for a competitive guy like me... [Read More]
Back when NXZ did his power ranking I really enjoyed it and his ranking was pretty to accurate to what I had in mind too. The only thing is he only made 1 power ranking. So what did I do? I pushed his face into the ground and told him to make more power rankings or David Kim will nerf infestors again. (Slight over exaggeration)
So we decided to make a monthly thing of it and I will host it on my website so that it has lovely formatting, has it's own page and keeps... [Read More]

just looking for some brutally honest opinions. i still hear some shit talk here and there which is expected but if the talk has something it spawned from i'd like to know aswell.
IXL was set out with the vision of creating a community and then spawn a pro team.
but above all continue to build respectable communications between IXL and myself with relative others with in the scene.
Now almost a year along IXL has in ways come along way and in other staggered.
But rest Assured we will... [Read More]
How do I assimilate myself into society after spending years as an introverted recluse?
Is it possible?
Can I attain some semblance of normality despite my wasted years playing non-fulfilling strategy and MOBA games which, in the end, have begun to give me brain aneurysms instead of any sense of satisfaction?
I need help, my friends, my family;
SC2SEA.
Pls respond.
P.S; Sc2 and DotA suck, I might go perform a Harlem Shake and try cash in on that - and we all know how much I... [Read More]
I recently started following a paleo diet, to some degree. I've had people telling me about the "caveman diet" for a long time and urging me to try it out. After hearing more about it than usual in the last few months, including pro sc2 player Sheth was swapping to it and having great success (http://www.teamliquidpro.com/news/20...eight-and-pain) I decided to have a go myself. After all, I love eating meat, more of it couldn't be bad right?
The diet itself can be read about here:... [Read More]

This means some growth control on these god damn eyebrows. I will be doing it tonight so will post some after pics haha. For before imagine John Howard :P
Hey guys,
I've been playing Starcraft 2 as Zerg on and off essentially since release now, and in that time I've grown to love the game and have a real appreciation for the level of dedication that goes into mastering the complex nature of this game.
I've recently finished Year 12 (Finally!) and have taken a year off schooling before going to university for 2 reasons. Firstly, I never really enjoyed school and couldn't wait to take a break and essentially dick around for a year. The second... [Read More]
Today is March 1st, 2013. I have here a picture with a collection of words on it.
Does anyone know what these collection of words mean to a select few? These words are words thrown to at them by ‘society’ and in turn refused to be acknowledged and accepted by this same ‘society’. Some are even ‘tortured’ by this ‘society’.
For some, they understand and change themselves to ‘fit in’ but for others, they become so emotionally destroyed that they may do something drastic. And they do... [Read More]
So my life has changed a little bit over the past year. About ten months ago I was picked up by iM and a lot of people had huge questions about who the hell I was and why I was chosen. Without going into extreme detail to unnecessarily justify myself, I was at University studying a borderline useless degree. This meant I could slack off and play StarCraft II 8-10 hours a day with no repercussions except a bunch of missed tutorials.
So when iM was looking for up-and-coming players I was lucky... [Read More]
some of you know this already but yesterday I flew from Adelaide to Sydney to work on some upcoming eSport events! I'll be staying in Kings Park so quite a ways to the City.
This blog is nothing more than to let you Sydney people know I'd love to catch up with as many of you as possible while over here so don't hesitate to get in contact with me while I am here! With enough preparation and managing work I can make day trips to City.
I fly to Melbourne on Sunday 10th March to... [Read More]
Okay, so I know a number of people of the community here know of mGGNemesis, the lovable, dark templar using, extremely manner Protoss, but most of all, Chase's bff ^_^
But unfortunately, NembotElie has been experiencing a number of malfunctions and strange behaviour both mechanically and socially, which I believe need to be addressed by mGG's leadership team in case her conditioning worsens, which would be a very unfortunate turn of events.
Exhibit A
Here we see Nembot, instead of her... [Read More]
We have never neglected to applaud the amazing players amongst us in our small community, but we often forget about the tireless and socially iconic team managers that have been such an important representation of their respective organisations. I would like to take this chance to recognise and direct our applause to their absolutely tireless effort and amazing work produced by Chadmann and Arnor in recent times. However at the same time, we must not forget someone like Benji - The first iconic... [Read More]
