Do you want me to write long winded paragraph's about facts regarding the importance of the SEA scene that we already know or do you want a genuine news segment that's worthy to be on CBSi's website?

This is the internet man, Don't blame me for thinking everyone is out to get me and steal my eSports news.

What kind of information are you looking for?.. what news are you hoping to gather and report on? Are you looking for event results or interested in learning about the entire 'pro' scene?

Everything for now.

The reason people are questioning your integrity is because you are putting such a little amount of effort into these posts that it comes across as extremely unprofessional, thus us doubting you as a professional, and doubting your identity.

You're giving us no idea how this segment will be run, the kinds of things you're after or why you can't just get the stories off the front page of this website and use them instead of getting emailed, what will likely just be links, to the stories on the front page of this website.

Don't get me wrong, I love the actual idea behind this, and I'm absolutely all for the SEA scene getting more coverage internationally as I feel it is quite sad the amount of exposure we get compared to the rest of the world considering we have produced some great players. I'm also super psyched about the initiative of NASL to do this, and this is ultimately a very positive thing so i'm sorry to come off pessimistic and harsh, but if this is done I'd like to see some sort of effort on your guys behalf to do it right, not some half-arsed 2-line OP followed by replies that took absolutely no thought or effort on your behalf.

nirvAnA:

+1 A better OP would have avoided all these replies. glad its resolved now though, gl with it! :)

ROOTPetraeus:

ouch a warning. you must be feeling... frustrated

[Maynarde]

Thanks for coming dude, will talk to some guys in the news team and hopefully get some articles / news sent to you ASAP. A fair bit happening at the moment to make up for one segment at least!

[Clutch8]

My apologies if the brevity of my forum posts seem offensive. It's best I don't limit any information coming in so I can establish new relationships and sources within the SEA community. From that information I will edit and produce news segments that will be in similar fashion to the NASL NA, EU, and Korean updates.

Actions speak louder than forum posts.

Quick Comments

	ROCCAT_Savior:	Sounds good, looking forward to seeing what you produce.
	OSL0rd:	:D Welcome to SEA clutch! Hope you enjoy yourself here with this great community!

[VoxMSI.Rogue]

Awesome, we very much look forward to working with you and seeing the content you produce.

Don't be put off by the reaction in this thread. This is an amazing community of people, just perhaps people who are also aware of the vast amount of trolls on the internet!

[Dox]

Sent an e-mail through. Apologies for the retarded posts here. Clearly there are people who haven't watched any of the great grassroots content that NASL has produced in the past, (including some highlight videos on Australian BarCrafts)!

Tempted to close this thread out of embarrassment.

[ToR.Arnor]

Ill fire you an email tomorrow morning, Shoutout to NASL giving SEA some love

Something to look into is SEA's run in the IESF

http://www.sc2sea.com/showthread.php?t=6111

Two of our players are currently in the Round of 16 Zerg Yekke and ThuoClao

[prOxi.FighT]

Bahahahahaha. Excellent thread, would read again.

[IceBurg85]

Im glad that the NASL is showing some interest in the region! Really looking forward to the segments - maybe we can get Clutch down here some time to go to one of our tournaments!

Ps CLutch - you are easily the best MC in the business!

[BaKaiNu]

Okay, I would love to continue collecting more infractions and warning given to further my lead in the mod statistics (Beat that SkyBreaker and nirvAnA! ), however, keep this thread clean, the guy is legit and willingly trying to promote the SEA region to the world. He should be appreciated rather than mocked for coming up with two sentence thread or whatever.

I'll be watching this thread stringently. So if you don't want to be warned or infracted, please think before you post.

[AxSGRiM]

NASL are doing awesome work. I love how they try to direct some viewers to our website on their cast and I hope we provide them with even more content so both sides get benefits from this.

	x5.NotoriouS:	ouch.. my angus T_T

[dippa]

Being cynical is all well and good but it's a bit unwarranted in this scenario when all Clutch is asking for is information.

What's the worst that could possibly happen beyond a little bit of wasted time? It's not like a donation drive to a Nigerian prince (or some other internet scam).

Also, calm down Baka. There's no need to get silly.

edit: I'd love to help but not really sure if there's anything I can provide. Sighduck.

Quick Comments

nirvAnA:

Baka isn't the one being silly lol. Also, im sure clutch will find all your recaps a good starting point

[fur]

Hahah the SEA scene be feisty yo! Busy people, NASL better not be wasting our time.

Sounds a great initiative and FFS baka cool it with the uber mod stuff

The next person asking me to cool it will not end well.

Spider is on Carnage now so no need for TA's logo, TA is actually clan anyway which Mafia (iM) and Rossi (Nv) happen to be members also ^_^

I know ESWC clashes with MLG but GLaDe doesn't know that apparently. Better get this sorted out.

Glade said he won a ticket to France. Not that he was going to France.

Both him and Mafia told me that they wouldn't be attending ESWC and that I could have the spot.

Please listen to me guys, I ran around and confirmed it. mOOnGLaDe declined it while standing with the person who is providing the prize, then I called up Mafia and messaged him and he declined, thus giving it to Petraeus (3rd place). If one of the above two claims it now, they're rescinding on what they've already said.

There are a few local lans running around, but most of us are eagerly anticipating SEACL and the return of the ACL circuit.

SEACL starts in about 2 weeks time

Theres also this LAN coming up tomorrow

http://www.sc2sea.com/showthread.php?t=6568

This LANs sign ups Include some of Australia's big names such as Mafia, PiG, Light, Rossi, Ninja, tgun, KingKong and Poker

[ROCCAT_Savior]

SEACL! ACL's, WCS or it's equivalent, especially the NZ 1 cause that was a lot of fun last time.
Local lans, new wt weekly format. I'd imagine ALOT more sea players heading to international events.

2013 is the year of sea.
