Hey guys. For those who aren't aware i'm going to Europe for 3 months! (I'm sitting at the airport as i write this). Will be doing 4 different tours. Plan to see and do as much as i can!

Now is the best time for me to undertake such an adventure as i've recently finished up studies, and will transition into a new career on my return.

So i won't be around the site or tournaments much from July to early October.
Things won't stop though, OSC tournaments will be running as per usual under the supervision of Elusory and Namakaye. Really appreciate these guys stepping up while i am away.

Masters Cups will revert back to once a month from now until probably the end of the year, partly as a lot of my trip will be unpaid (I'm the only MC sponsor atm), and partly as not to overload the other admins.

I'm pretty pumped for this trip. Been a long few years of study, work, and even starcraft taking its toll. Will enjoy my time away from all of these and come back fresher and full of #passion for the last few months leading up to the end of year $5000+ OSC Finals.

I made a thread, not a blog as it wont get burried as easy, and i'll check back here for any questions, and maybe throw in some travel stories/pictures.

Any OSC issues, you'd be advised to try Elusory or Namakaye first, otherwise you can contact me via twitter (feel free to tweet me sc2 news/results) or email at eddieedwardssc2@gmail.com but given timezones and my schedule it may take 48-72 hours for a reply.

We are coming out of our mid year down time now, OSC tournaments will all be back up and firing, SEACrafts, Masters Cups, Leifeng Cups, Gamerbet Weeklies, ASL, Noodle Cups, etc. Plus ACL Melbourne for those lucky enough to attend.

Hope everyone has a good few months. I'll check in where i can. GLHF

Hey guys

Finished up my first tour, Contiki through UK and Ireland.

Was amazing. Had a great group. Saw so many great natural sights, and old man made ones, castles, churches, etc. Very different to back home.

Been to many pubs, seen some local live music, traditional dancing, had a few local beverages, good times!

UK summer - not really summer so far lol, doesn't really get over 20, but did have a few nice sunny days.

The daylight hours are quite strange. Can be light from 4.30am-11pm!

My favourite place has been Edinburgh.

Tomorrow i'm off to the Spanish Islands (Menorca, Ibiza, Mallorca). Should be mid 30's all week so get a taste of summer. I'm a big club music, house, trance, fan, so pretty keen to check out one of the best spots in the world for it.

What have i missed in the world of sc?

Pretty jealous right now Eddie hope you have an amazing time in the Spanish isles Ibiza especially
