CDC3: What the players have to say

One week left to CDC3 first matches in group stage and I took the opportunity to ask some players about their dreams and hopes. This is not a bedtime story.

5 questions, 6 players. Here we go.

#1 How do you feel about the CDC3? What are your expectations?

ETR
I'm totally stoked about it now! After finally finishing all the work with the invites, the seeds, and after quite some lastminute stress I can finally look out to the compo itself. Especially seeing all the confirmed players being there (next to the participants a fair good few dedicated Warsowians), the logcabins we'll share, it'll be a very good time no doubt. Also participating will be a ball, I'm not expecting much performance-wise, however I will try my best to practise plenty next week. I am really anxious to see vicek, BoBel and BRUNS play irl (I have already had the pleasure to see scoobz0r playing :p).


Xhep
I think it's nice to see Warsow finaly getting a chance to show the rest of the e-sports world what great potential this game has. I wasn't too excited about coming to CDC3 since I've been too bussy lately to really practice and am not that motivated anymore to play in tournaments. But I refound some old spirit and decided to come afterall, that is, if I find a place to crash at. My expectations for the tournament aren't that high seeing as I haven't been that active as of late, but I'll try to squeeze in as much practice as I can in the upcomming week so I won't lose from Rikku.


blze
I'm enthusiastic about the whole event. I think it's going to be a killer event, with highskilled players everywhere.


Scoobz0r
I looked forward to it since the milisecond I heared about it. Going to be so cool to meet all those wsw players. What I expect is alot of fun, some crazy 60 hertz duel games and a little tear from me when I realize agammemnonz isnot there :'(.


komodochas
CDC is awesome. warsow has deserved a chance to shine on LAN for a while - and it's finally got it. i don't think that we can thank the organisers enough for giving the game a shot. as for the competition - i don't really have any expectations. we'll just have to see how it goes :)


V!ct!M
I expect very nice weekend, with interesting competition and some drinking after it :P I also want to meet other WarSow players.


#2 What group would you like to be in and why?

ETR
I don't care too much about what group actually. I know based on the seedings the groups will be fairly evenly balanced, I just hope not to meet too many favourites in group stages :P.


Xhep
I don't really care in what group I will get. There are some great players coming to the tournament and if I could somehow avoid playing them untill the later stages of the tournament I'd be verry happy. I don't see myself winning this tournament so I'll just be going for the fun and meeting people.


blze
I'd like to play marrk, jazz and ETR to show them who's the real king... :)


Scoobz0r
Ohhh, give me top 3, ITS ON! :-#


komodochas
it's easier to say which group i don't want to be in: ETR's group. the dude will try to defwin his way to the finals whatever way he can. watch out for this sneaky dutchman.


V!ct!M
There will be probably four groups so I won't meet another player from top4-seeds in my group. Anyway there are many "lower seeded" players, who can surprise everyone. To be honest I don't have any "special wishes" about my group but of course I would like to advance, especially from the first place. We will see...


#3 Where do you gonna sleep? Do you fear h1o's presence already?

ETR
WSW Cabin of Love ftw! And no, however scary h1o seems to be on the internet, I found him to be a great guy irl. And I'm stoked he has dropped his pro-CoD2 career (this man was going places!) for Warsow, it's great to see pro-gamers taking notice of our little humble dm game.


Xhep
I'm going to try to conquer a sleeping spot at an old friend's house who's living in Enschede. As for h1o, I don't really know the dude but the fact that you ask this question makes me want to avoid him at the tournament, so thanks for the heads-up.


blze
I'm going to sleep in THE Warsow cabin! h1o? nah :))))))


Scoobz0r
I thought it was going to be one day :| crazy me. So I do not know yet, have to ask h1o and the rest of my #warsow.nl guys where they are going to stay.


komodochas
i'm sleeping (or perhaps not sleeping?) in the wswcabinoflove. i hope h1o has packed his monada costume :-D


V!ct!M
Well I wanted to sleep in this house with others but I will be in Enschede on Thursday (or even Wednesday), because tickets were much cheaper, and I will have to use this more expensive form of accomodation, at least before Friday. I was going to go with my brother but he has got some important things to do and probably won't be able to go with me...I will try to sort this thing out during weekend (at least I can go with my cat :D). How can I fear h1o`s presence after few months of steroids therapy? (medical, no those for gym :D) I can always take my cousin who is Scoobz0r-like (or taller :P).

FOr those that are still looking for a place to sleep. Some ET teams still have spots in their cabins which are very nearby the venue. 10 minutes walking.

Yes, they are ET players, but they are nice and drink a lot as well. The cabins i can really recommend if you want to meet up with people, because since last event the after parties are kinda notorious and fun.
