Turtle Entertainment just announced about two weeks ago the nominees for the eSports Awards 'Player of the year'. It is the first time that they changed the system from scratch and the players you can vote in are divided up into seven regions all over the globe. A vote took also place on myMYM.com.

Now more changes in that Award have been announced. "The winners were up until now determined by a jury. This has changed! Starting in 2008, the eSports Award will establish an Academy comprised of star players, opinion leaders, eSports Award winners and other people from the eSports industry. The Academy will choose the winner of the eSports Award in different categories. In the beginning, the Academy will only vote for the winners of most of the categories, but in the future, the Academy will take over more functions surrounding the eSports Award."

Big names like Korea, South MYM]Moon, Korea, South MYM]Lucifer, Netherlands MYM]Grubby, Denmark Mercy, Germany TheSlash, Germany Baschi, United State- Andy Reif, Sweden Madfrog, Poland MYM]Neo, France ToD or Poland Carmac are in that Academy.

Your article brought me to cloud 9! It was such an eye opener. I've never enjoyed reading a long article, all my life. But I did repeat for like a couple of times. I'll let my heart push the buttons of my keyboard and cater it with the sincerest smile i have, whenever I'm writing.

You just bought me a Bugatti Veyron. A new drive for my passion. Thanks Maly! Much respect.

*I've seen a pair of flair! try to use another word. ;P

nice article on news ;) it's something that bothers me to the same extent but i guess situation won't change soon, for now writers are mostly either illiterate or seeking personal glory instead of writing news for the people.

There's no reason why you can't write for the people while satisfying an ego!

naturally, but problem is when satisfying ego is main priority, whereas writing something on the level enjoyable for the community becomes irrelevant

Yes that's why you have to reevaluate the objectives. Set aside the resistance because if you do digress, you'll just be eaten by the advocacy of writing with absurd purpose.

I hope you're not implying that writing to satisfy an ego is an absurd purpose or reason.

Anyone serious writes to satisfy their ego and need for self-expression, there are no exceptions. Whether it's in eSports and someone like Malystryx or in journalism, A.A. Gill or literature - too many examples to name.
