Why aren't you looking at an M3? Too played out?

I have an 528XL which I'm starting to get bored of.

To Kars. Most PCs are quad core now so most of them can do 720p streaming easily, especially since new capture devices do all the work freeing up your computer to do other stuff like download porn and anime.
 
I could have sworn when this progaming vs conventional career debate came up with regards to Chris G, the opposite views were the consensus.

Oh, great! I got an Elgato HD for Christmas and have been too busy to use it.

Smug let the salt from Sanford interfere with his match with Coach Steve lol, dude needs to learn that he isn't the best and can lose just like anybody else. Other than that, Sanford gonna take this.

So the event is 2 months away and they don't have a venue yet? Or they have one they just haven't revealed it yet?

I don't know. Valle has been saying they want SCR to have the true So Cal experience of a night life and not staying in a ballroom at night. I assumed the reason for the later date was to get SCR as a CPT event.

I think he's aiming to keep it at UCI but wasn't able to get a date until way later and that's why it's in May

Don't quote me on that as fact though, that's just what I thought I heard.

They mentioned they were asked last year if they were interested and had to decline consideration due to not being able to upgrade the venue in time.

I'm not impressed by the steam machines. You can build a normal PC for the prices and get the same results.

Credit to Wonkey for finding this.

So Epic had a UE4 sizzle trailer and one of the games they featured was Tekken 7 and had it listed for Xbox One, PS4 and Arcade. They put the video on private and now they released the video and for Tekken 7 all it says is Arcade

Another Invitational for big money at SXSW.
http://www.sxswgaming.gg

Funny how they have this big invitational with players from all over the world and a ton of money on the line and this wasn't known until a little over a week before it takes place. I'm pretty freaking excited, but man, it's funny how sudden this was compared to the Red Bull invitational that has been hyped for the past couple of months now.

And what happens when the money runs out? Or if you make that run and come up short? Now you're some scrub with no money and no future.

I think it's fine to delay school by one year if he wanted to go all out to both test himself against the best and try to win all that money. Like others have said, the big events, the money, the competition, and more may not be there next year. So this could be his one chance to give it his all. But I would only think it's a good idea if he had a sponsor like Kbrad or PR Rog. Both are in a similar boat. Kbrad wants to go back to school and PR Rog has his job to concentrate on. Before they quit pro gaming or become part timers, they want to go all out and give it their best this year when so much is on the line. And they have EG to take care of them. Smug doesn't have that luxury so I don't think it's a good idea for him to blow all his savings traveling the country trying to qualify for Capcom Cup when nothings guaranteed.
