Element Leaves eoL for SK?

Posted by NoToRiOuS at 14:52 14/6/2003.

The news broke yesterday that Element has left GoL : eoL. Reading a small interview with Naikon here, he says Element left to play CS with his long time friend AHL (who is in SK.swe).

Today element left your team, what's the background-info on this?

He has been quite tired of CS lately, and been talking about that he really wants to play with a good friend (ahl) to make the game more enjoyable. So that's why he left, I guess.

Is this a joke? Well the topic in the #eoLtihic channel suggests not:

14:46) *** Rejoined channel #eoLithic
(14:46) *** Topic is '- eoLithic - www.eolithic.net - element leaves eoLithic and joins up with SK. more news soon - NO JOKE.

However, channel topics are not the most reliable sources of information. So I put on my Sherlock cap and after digging around a bit I found this on SK's forums. If you scroll down to post number 56, SK|bds says he will be releasing a statement soon.

Stay tuned...

Hes moved clan about 5 times to 'stay with friends' .. he seems to have a deal with ahl / damein so he can get in any clan he likes at the time

if they do drop one it will have to be either brunk/fisker.

Heaton goes, potti follows - visa versa and ahl is just to good to go. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

And i remember when the new SK team formed it was because they were all from Stockholm, Therefore making it eaiser for them to all meet at bds's garage link there shuttles up and praccy.

This is 99% a joke. You just have to take in the facts to see why :

1) SK kicked two Norweigen (DarK and XeqtR) players already , to get an all Swedish team, so why would they invite a norweigen back, unless he's moving to sweden, which I doubt is the case.

2) ElemenT has already said he wouldn't go to SK.swe because they don't really like each other (with exception of ahl and element)

3) Flex broke the news, which speaks for its self. (I had a convo with him earlier today in which he seemed addament to get me to believe element had Joined SK, Why if it had really happend?)

4) SK havn't said anything. If a summet like this had happend (it was *announced* last night) SK would of had it posted up ASAP.

Well they are a few of the facts, It's just too unbelievable, and *if* it is true. I'll eat my own pubic hair. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

20:16 14/6/2003
1) perhaps element is moving to Sweden? to spend more time with ahl or somthing :)

2) im not really up to date with Scandinavian CS Scene friendship groups so ill miss this one

3) ... *shrugs*

4) bds says hes waiting for the contracts to expire, the last thing he would do is tell his team that one of them is being removed in the next 4 months, it would only lead to a downfall of morale and performance amongst other things.

just possibilities :/ [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
