Counter-Strike: Grt can write! Vote on his article topic

By: Nick Bee - Published July 01, 2009 at 4:04 PM EDT - Writer Archive
The community posted their suggestions for article topics, we narrowed it down.
GotFrag.com - A while back in a vent party, Grt was being his usual socially reserved self and politely commenting on how he was just about the greatest thing to come out of Canada since bagged milk.

The suggestion was brought about that he should -in his own words- pen an article concerning a community posed issue and share his thoughts on the matter

He was kind enough to agree, and a thread was posted for ideas. We received a little over fifty responses, and together with "the Charles Dickens of Toronto", five choices are being put to a vote.

This poll will end on Friday with the top vote receiver being the topic being his prompt.

What should Grt's topic be?
About how North American CS is just an "old boys club" and why that holds us back.
The rise and fall of Canadian Counter-Strike.
What would need to happen within the North American community for it to go back to the way it was before the CGS.
Grt just ranting about anything that bugs him specifically.

the rise and fall of Canadian cs:

one day a team was made they called them self's evil geniuses with the help of star player matt stevenson they worked their way to the top, started doing good at big event's and landed some major sponsors which inspired new Canadian teams to form and inspired existing Canadian teams to get better. the scene was at a high, then awhile after the scene declined a bit but was still going strong, then one day EG had an announcement.... they announced the lineup of : Stevenson, Lari, Grt, tr1p, Shaguar... fans were ecstatic, this was GREAT news, the scene was about to rise to an all time high again!.. but shortly after EG had another announcement to make, this however was terrible news they announced that they were going to CGS to play source fans were very disappointed, they didn't even get to see this all star lineup in action.. not even one 1.6 match this was an outrage which ultimately lead to the fall of the Canadian cs scene. Alex Garfield team manager eventually turns this Canadian based organization into an all American organization which pretty much seals the deal.

I heard picking up players that are "known" has really benefited most of the top CS teams in the past 4 years or so.

Jk.

Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose.
