Gristy & eSports

Posted by Ripper at 15:44 8/11/2002.

Gristy, currently working with eSport pro to help clans achieve a more professional look with sponsorship and support, has decided to write his own book based on eSports and what is required to build your own team from scratch. Here's what he plans to do:
Well some of you know im away for 5 weeks in Australia staying with my uncle and cousins, when im out there i decided im going to make my time useful and write a book. Book entitled eSports Management.

Basically i want it to cover every section of eSport Management ive got some chapters/section title drafted out:

-Introduction
-How to start a eSport Team from scratch.
-How to become a eSport Team Manager.
-Structure & Organasation.
-How to treat the teams players.
-Why attend LAN competitions.
-How to attract sponsors.
-Contracting Players.
-Why merge? and how to make a merge work.
-The Future.
-Conclusion

Obviously this will require the public to inspire him with their views and suggestions. Good luck to Gristy, lets hope he lives up to this promise. Full statement over at sogamed here.

Im assembling some eSports memorabilia. This book is going to take pride of place alongside my shares in noc (which are sure to worth something soon) and my picture of Heaton which always makes me get more headshots when I kiss it or put it near my special place.

PS good luck with the book :). [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

I don't pretend i'm some sort of cs figure who can write books to boost my own popularity about subjects that I have no idea on or aren't my concern though.

But anyway I'm sure sk will enjoy the book written by the leader of... err what's your clan again, i forgot! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

If I wrote a book on how to construct a clan, it'd probably go like this:

Dedicated to my main homie Blazing_Steel.
