Following on from the recent announcement regarding the new c4u international lineup, their sponsorship and plans for the future, fresh news reaches us from the c4u ranks!
After recently competing at the ESWC pre-qualifier event, losing to =WOLF= in the process, the team flew to the Metropolis Internet Cafe, their main sponsor, for a bootcamp before the ESWC UK LAN Finals. After a few days at the venue the team decided to pack their bags and back to the UK with a few days spare before the trip to the Magna Centre in Sheffield for the event.
The plans were immediately put on hold when it became apparent that the Swedish contingent of c4u were unable to meet the financial requirements for the return trip. Rumour has it the original plan was to request more money from the Metropolis centre, allowing the Swedes to travel to the UK. It appears that KritikaL decided to take matters into his own hands however as , before the cafe could be contacted, altered the #c4u topic to :
just like to thank pain / faken / exp for being with us for the pre quals shame they couldnt put themselves out and get to sheffield THANKS GUYS
How this affects the participation of c4u in this weekends ESWC UK LAN finals remains to be seen, but it appears that KritikaL is intent on continuing c4u with a UK lineup whereas the Swedes appear keen on forming a team under the Metropolis banner, therefore eliminating c4u's current cash sponsorship deal. Juicy stuff.
For more information head on over to this article on Fragbite if you can read Swedish at any rate.
Note: Thanks to my mystery guest translator!

We have paid back every penny that we borrowed and Luke knows this, i guess he post this bcos he thinks that this would make his inmature fall easier.
Why c4u is nomore is because of bad planning and way to much money spent on travels that have already been made, this is why we cant attend ESWC uk quals in Sheffield this weekend.
I would personally thank akujii for the short notice standin that obviously didnt went as we suspected.

They seem to have achieved more than any of you that have posted on here with the exception of TAG/I-eS/4K.
It's easy to follow suite and take the p***, how about every once in a while you do gaming a favour and just f***ing admit some people are better than you.
Thats to everyone who has said 'HAHA' and 'WASNT GONNA LAST LONG'.
a 2 day old team achieved more than ONE ever did. Good logic there [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
