dude Relax i wasent talking about BOSNIA. Go to Nigeria, ALgeria, Ghana, Indonesia and so on. They have people living in the strets. Miserable condicion. Running Water in there country is more important than you pride. And if you read the text correctly i Put your contry as one example for the "refug" comment as that - About not read news about other contrys. You must agree isen't normal for Bosnia to have one or two teams in Any Internacional Event. So this is a big deal for Bosnia Gamin's and for Some of this contrys.

2010-04-22 10:06

That's because of ur admins.

2010-04-22 10:09

Dude Calm your hormones down a bit. You look like a Poland Fanatic Fan. You contry reference is MYM| PITA, i never see other bosnia Team playing or any other player from Bosnia playing on some other teams, so i cant actually compare the two teams, and i don't Even want to. If you think Bosnia is a better Team than portugal you have that right, is your opinion. But some porutguese mai say that " Portugal and KiCK can rule any team from Bosnia On @lan " and i may even say that " Bosnia Rule on Inet Gaming " But that real mather??? what do you win If THEY WIN??? - Absolutely N0THING.

2010-04-22 11:09

I'm sorry to have to say this, but you are wrong. Bosnian teams are bad, because they have more important things to do in their lives, but they still attend major tournaments like WCG, ESWC etc. You just didn't notice it. And they drop in groupstage JUST like k1ck. And about players...B&H has crp who won ESL Pro Series Alps like 100 times, and he together with prophe7 played a season of German Pro Series, so...You still think playing and winning domestic LAN's tops that? Maybe...

2010-04-22 23:59

Well frankly dude, ure dumb, it may be a shitty connection to Algeria and such, but inet link's every god damned corner of this planet to the other, and second of all inet is not a marvel anymore, it's plain, like bread and water! So you see just because it may be small countryes, i am sure they are able to handle an event of such, plus the events will be held at inet cafes, where we are to presume that they have quality inet. For the future think before posting!
