Jetset: 20:15] AFD.Lic|<star - dSYNC (zotmens): Tek-9, What are the plans for the moment actualy? Will you become bigger growing up or just staying same like now?
Growing definately and we plan to do this by improving the coverage of the games we currently cover and expand into new games that fit our community base.
crow: [20:13] Lukas (lukas8015): What actually tell your families that you game so much? I just know myself that my parents would get me on my nerves.
My parents were always ok with me spending time on gaming as long as I balanced it with other regular activities
dfb: Luke (forza67): @dfb will you ever stop getting lucky in quakelive?
Never. There is a certain degree of luck needed on my behalf to at least make a chance to get a frag at the game. I do enjoy beating you, though
dfb: [20:18] HωA | DяєDD (esdredd): to dfb : i want to give advertisement @ tek9, how much it costs? ican get u lokum and raki
I'm afraid I'm not the one handling the advertisement but you would have had me with one bottle of Raki!
ReDeYe: [20:17] kelbz Mammila\Myosis (uberexodus): @redeye when will you marry me?
Sorry, but no xx
dfb: [20:16] Heroes aerox (therealbeeman): To dfb: Recently, a team consisting of Vanner, Gizzor, Froster and Wizinium have announced that they plan to create a new league, which if succesfull, should unify, and strengthen the Call of Duty 4 scene. Have you heard of this, and if so, what are TEK9's plans to help this project reach it's final destination?
I'm fully aware of this project and what it has in store for the community and it will not only receive my full personal support but also plenty of support throughout Heaven Media. We are currently looking at supporting the league itself in one way or another and also, obviously, covering it in full on TEK9.
Jetset: 20:16] #Validus`NickUK`Paid-I39 (k800darker): Is Tek-9 looking to expand to other games (CSS etc) or do you think that could cause some problems between the CSS community and COD4 Community maybe not liking each other?
Cadred is the place to be for CS:S, but we are definately looking to cover different games in the future. FIFA is one of them, but more will follow of course.
ReDeYe: [20:20] Heroes aerox (therealbeeman): To ReDeYe: As "sort of" the outsider of this little Call of Duty club, what are your views on the top of Call of Duty. Obviously we've seen TCM fold, and Dignitas gaining robye, but let's not forget the swedish talent in the form of Unique and Fnatic. Who do you think will surprise in 2010, or who will go and do well?
I think 2010 is shaping up to be very interesting in terms of line ups. I thought back in August everyone pretty much had their ideal line ups, but cod never stands still. I think the two you mentioned, Dignitas in particular will be very strong if they can get chemistry going, especially with Pham and roby being reuinted, but you cant count out any team with Stevy in can you? fnatic v dignitas could well be the big battling story in 2010
dfb: [20:20] Qwixxx (muchacho20): @dfb: Thrue, it was rather dissapointing but I don't really think it was such a financial disaster seen the prize purse was halved. Nevertheless,some of the cod2 teams ( well actually the ones that went to oof3 ) are looking to do this again. Have you got any idea if we could rent outpost for like a day or so?
I could help you out on that front, let's discuss this after the chat and I will see what I can do to help you guys out!
[Xf Helper] 4CH!LL3S (h4hnib4l): [20:22] kelbz Mammila\Myosis (uberexodus): @wizinium
How can my team get recognised to participate in the vita-nova league, we know we can cope with the teams that are in.
dfb: [20:21] UKDS.SKIPPER (kb43): @dfb will you be doing CS:S lans in the future 2010 ?
We already held a CSS event with OOF3 and the next event will also have CSS added to the games list. We will also support the upcoming Smack LAN with Gamevibes and you can obviously read all about both events on Cadred who cover CSS!
ReDeYe: 20:23] Luke (forza67): @redeye what is your most favorite game to shoutcast?
I would have to say its still Quake (any form) or Unreal Tournament CTF or 1v1, there is just something that gets me very excited by both of those, but I have enjoyed some epic games in COD2 (Eurocup 2006) and last year got very excited about CSS at The eXperience, so I think as long as two teams or sets of players have personalities and its a great game for whatever reason, I will usually commentate like my trousers are on fire, regardless of the game being played
wizinium: 20:22] kelbz Mammila\Myosis (uberexodus): @wizinium
How can my team get recognised to participate in the vita-nova league, we know we can cope with the teams that are in.
When we open up a main league after the firstseason of Vita-Nova , if you get a good rank the league then you can use it on your preinvinte application. If you get accpeted into preinvite then you will play in a qualifer cup and if you do well will be let into the league. Its early days yet, we dont know fully what is goingto happen but there will be a BIG announcement early next week!
wizinium: [20:24] COMEDY.sad H.P. (olozkilec): @wizinium WIll tek9 move to ArmA2? and will tek9 make med skilled palyers team for cod4 ?
Nope we will not be moving to ArmA2 and we are a community site now owned by Heaven Media and will not be picking up a cod4 team as it is a community site!
wizinium: [20:25] idefixion (snickernicky): to Wizinum: You casted some matches for H2KTV with jonesy. Would you also like to be an maincaster on LAN events and stuff?
dfb: 20:23] Ralph / Private04 (private04): @dfb - considering the HM Awards, did you vote as well, I am curious to your answers to "best cod4 team" and "best cod4 player" ??
Obviously I voted as well ! As far as my answers are concerned I picked Stevy for best player - I was a little bit biased here as I wanted to support a fellow Belgian player whom I get along with great and for best team my pick was Fnatic. It was a close call with Dignitas but fnatic came out on top in my list as they performed a little bit stronger towards the end.
wizinium: [20:25] idefixion (snickernicky): to Wizinum: You casted some matches for H2KTV with jonesy. Would you also like to be an maincaster on LAN events and stuff?
I would love to do more in the way of shoutcasting. Alot of people said I was decent at it but I still have alot to learn, if more opperunites came along I would love to do it!
dfb: [20:26] Ingram (ingram93): will tek9 survive 2012's doomsday?
If anything can, it should be TEK9 so yes!
wizinium: [20:26] Ralph / Private04 (private04): @wizinium what are your thoughts on the upcoming Battlefield: Bad Company 2
I havent seen alot about it to be honest. I will check it out after this chat. I didnt enjoy the other BF games but this may be different, we will have to wait and see after the failure of MW2 for PC
ReDeYe: [20:25] Heroes aerox (therealbeeman): To ReDeYe (capitals starting to annoy me ): After the charade with UKeSA, how willing are you, as a person, and as a player/manager/caster to commit yourself to another event such as this?
The short answer is that I would treat any such future venture with a lot of scepticsm, especially as UKeSA wasnt even the first one I tried to help get off the ground. There was nothing wrong with the goals of the organisation, just the wrong people involved in places with the wrong agenda's and they got found out to be nothing more than businessmen trying to make a buck. Dont get me wrong, nothing wrong with making money, but not from an association which is supposed to support and help nurture and grow UK gaming. The next version needs to be with full government support, ELSPA backing and have key people from the esports and gaming involved.
wizinium: [20:26] Luke (forza67): @wizinum is vita-nova the reason why you didnt finish cod4 pickups?
Nope, the coder for the bot is taking far to long to finish the bot. Like I said before I will message him about the bot and if not Ill look for other options as it is important for the cod4 community and the ttesting of new maps
dfb: [20:27] HωA | DяєDD (esdredd): @ crew, any regrets about new website of tek9? still in progress but i think it should be done by now.
I have no regrets what so ever and I absolutely love the new design. We are still working very very hard every day to keep improving the design and functionalities and you will see more and more changes as time progresses. I still feel we are in the BETA stages of the site but it looks like we won't be for much longer. That being said we will never stop changing and developing the site to make things better for the readers of the site and keep adding cool new things for you to enjoy.
wizinium: [20:27] Heroes aerox (therealbeeman): To wizinium: Recently we've seen you increase your HoN skill bit by bit. Would you say it's due to the guidance of me, or did another factor contribute to this giant skillboost?
You taught me the basics aerox along with jimmy so thanks <3
wizinium: I have been playing alot with infused gathers so stay tuned!!!
Jetset: [20:27] HωA | DяєDD (esdredd): @ crew, any regrets about new website of tek9? still in progress but i think it should be done by now.
No regrets if you ask me. The new site offers so much more and will eventually be a lot better. It offers more room for customization, adding new features. In addition it offers a number of new features for the crew. Although there are definately some things we still need to work on, we are happy with it and will continue to improve.
ReDeYe: [20:30] Ralph / Private04 (private04): @ReDeYe how are your actually playing skills compared to your shoutcasting skills(godlike, sir.) of cod4
They are pretty rusty these days, but I have won lans and eurocups and captained my national team in the distance past, I got by
