HLTV.org live from Jönköping

14-6-2014 14:09

We're here in Jönköping, Sweden reporting live from DreamHack Summer 2014 where SteelSeries CS:GO Championship is ready to start in one hour.

The tournament area is ready as you can see on the picture below, the admins reported to us that the computers have been tested multiple times, as have the servers and eBot, so it only remains for the players to set up and warm up.

Battle for the $30,000 prize purse starts today with groups A and B. You can find the complete schedule in our viewer's guide, and we remind you that Publiclir.se have replaced last-minute drop outs ENCE last night in group A.

We have enabled our twitter feed on the front page once again, same as we did for Copenhagen Games, where you will be able to read quick updates throughout the tournament.

The official stream will be joined by FACEIT TV who will be the secondary English channel, while numerous other languages are also featured. You will be able to find all streams on our match pages, but it's important to note that there will be no public GOTV.

We also prepared a graph showcasing the average ages of all teams participating:

And these are the five youngest and oldest players of the tournament. Among the youngest is Titan's star Kenny "kennyS" Schrub, while the oldest one is Virtus.pro's Wiktor "TaZ" Wojtas who took over the "title" from ENCE's Joona "natu" Leppänen.

26 years and 365 days wtf? i think year have 365 days :DDDD

2014-06-14 14:15

Technically a year has 365.25 days since we have to account for leap years, that's what threw the calculations a bit off :) Anyway, Neo's birthday is tomorrow.

2014-06-14 14:27

Neo - 26 years and 365 days. Doesn't that make him just 27 years? :)

2014-06-14 14:17

no because a year has a 365th day. The 366th day of a year would be the first of a new year

2014-06-15 13:57

Oh look, he is 27 now. Could've just save themselves the trouble and write it anyway.

2014-06-14 15:14

I don't get the days part after the ages?

2014-06-14 16:09

I am not surprised. Anyway, as you probably noticed by now, year consists of 365 days. Also - surprisingly enough - not all the people are born on the same day, so their age might differ. Hence, if you are born f.e. 1. 1. 1990, then on 15. 6. 2014 you are 24 years and 166 days old, because 166 days are between 1. 1. and 15. 6.
