Sad news for ]I[nfernum

Posted by St_George at 23:14 21/10/2002.

I noticed over on SoGamed the breaking news concerning top Austrian clan Infernum. For those of you who don't know, they won the Austrian World Cyber Games qualifier, and were due to be taking part at the finals, in Korea. Sadly, problems with the Austrian WCG sector mean that they cannot be sent. Here's a snippet:
The WCG Organisation is not able to finance five flights for us.

That means the end for I.CS at the WCG 2002, we deeply regret not being there and not having the chance to represent Austria at the annually Cyber Olympics in a perfect way.
Check out the full statement, here.

I'm sure samsung will come through and get them there would be bad press if they won and didnt get to go.

Thats a shame when you have earned the trip like that. Wonder if they will get anything like hardware to ease the pain. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
