It was obviously intended to poke fun at the people who mix the european countries up lol

I remember back when i went to england on a language trip in 09 and the family thought I was from switzerland looooooooooooool
you should travel more and experience that pain more. I swear to god, every single person ive met in another country that didnt know my dad beforehand due to his work would think I'm from Switzerland. Even if I told them Im swedish 5 seconds ago.
Americans are the worst at that. "OH YOU FROM SWITZERLAND? YOU SPEAK GERMAN?" =P

not only do they think you are from switzerland from the way you speak, they always mishear sweden for switzerland. THEY ARE NOT EVEN SIMILAR.

Yeah, merry swedish christmas!

Btw, I'm bringing 3-4 more friends to gothenburg, who's not going to participate in the tourney. Are they allowed to be at the venue during the event?

In the future, I want a Swedish teams partner for international tournaments. They're like fashion accessories.
LOL. The stockmarket's gonna be maaad influenced by BEAST :p

"AWMG SO HYPE, Calle W's getting off and the price for a Swedish teammate just skyrocketed by 300... no, 400 PERCENT, AND IT'S STILL INCREASING!!"



Merry Christmas everyone, 2 weeks left!

Who is this guy? Did he attend Apex 2010, *Pound* 4, or Genesis?

Lol, I love it, I'm mysterious. But in all seriousness, I'm just a midwest random (the worst kind of random....) who happened to get good enough at the game to feel confident that a tournament experience would be worthwhile while studying abroad in Europe. So my first real tournament will be in Europe. Lol, midwest random reppin' the US.

But yeah, if this goes even mildly well, I'll probably go to Pound 5 when I get back and then start attending the monthly (or so) statewide tourneys and hopefully do well in those.

Really, I'm just hoping to play a ton of friendlies in order to stop sucking at this game so much.;)

I like your mindset. Mindset is important. If you think about it, there isn't really anyone whom you cannot beat. I wished more US can go to this. :)

Sweden (/Europe) has always had literally the best quality videos in the world, and will as long as I'm there recording. And they will be better than ever for this tournament. Screw your HMW etc =).

As for livestream, I'm currently in the US, but will do my best to whip something up before the tournament. Sadly I wont settle for anything less than perfect quality, so hopefully I can achieve that in time.

About country mixups...
Me: I'm from Sweden.
American: Isn't that where that big particle accelerator is?
Me: Um, that's in Switzerland...
It's usually clocks, cheese or banks. Now add particle accelerators to your Swe/Swi mixup list.

Are you trying to say your videos of BEAST will be as good as this?

If you mean better than incorrect aspect ratio and failed deinterlacing, then yes.
If you mean upscaling to HD which noone uses anyway since 360p/480p is default, then no. 480p is just fine. If you want quality, download the video from my site.
If you mean that my composite should look better than his component video, I can't make promises but I'll try.

If I wanted to, I could totally **** that, but Youtube is low on my priority list, and while I can record component video, it isn't practical at tournaments where no TVs support it.


edit:
East Coast airports closed due to snow. Hope I can actually make it back to my continent...
