Nerd News: CheckSix & Sleep's recruitment

From CheckSix:

As some of you may know, Sleep's recruitment into CheckSix included living in the US for an extended period. Our caster, Gwin, and CSN's Rance met Seung "Sleep" Kim at the airport to welcome him to the States and to create the first of a series of interviews of Sleep while staying in Southern California. See what Sleep had to say here:

CSN's The Rundown #14

When: 09:30 KST/01:30 CET/Thu 19:30 EST/Thu 16:30 PST

Stream:   http://www.twitch.tv/cybersportsnetwork

Site: http://cyber-sports.net/event/rundown-14

Brackets: http://cyber-sports.net/brackets/21007

The Rundown is a weekly 8 player invitational that focuses on helping underexposed players and teams get the exposure they deserve. The competition is of a high level and the casting is always top notch nerd analysis. This week joining CSN's Gwin will be Alex "Axeltoss" Rodriguez.. the most interesting caster in the world!

viOLet may be missing, and I am sure trolling some foreigners somewhere, but its back to the 'Sleep' show. Check Six Sleep returns and looks take back the Championship. However, some newcomers to the Rundown are here to put a stop to it. Topping the list may very well be infinity seven's jEcho, but Invidia Rossi and the un-teamed KiF1re will surely take their shots. The first Champion ever at CSN, Perfect, is back and this time with his new team, Check Six. Area 51 offers up wannabe and Convergence fires in YaTa. Could we finally see a Rundown in which Sleep or viOLet were a participant, but did NOT win?

CSN's The Rundown #12

The Rundown is a weekly 8 player invitational cup with top players from as many different teams and countries as possible. The Rundown is about facilitating the rising stars in SC2 and bring exposure to those teams and players that may not have 10,000 twitter followers. The Rundown is different. It is not just a competition of top skill but also a show with an 'edge' to it.

TL thread: [CSN] Rundown #10 - Catz Eats A Burrito

8 Player, single elimination, Invite only bracket for top M and GM players. The Rundown is held every Thursday, starting at 7:00 PM EST with player interviews and pre-event show.

Confirmed players for Rundown #10:
dde
Gimix
TheMista
Masa
catZ
puCK
Deranging
dtGrow


CatZ has returned to the Rundown hoping to use his 'Burrito' power to take the Championship! CatZ, who has been a supporter of CSN from the start and will join the Rundown this week to do his part to help grow true competition in the SC2 community. Joining catZ will be the familiar face of NGRdde, who has also done much to support CSN and SC2. Team NMx adds their best player, 14 year old Masa to the lineup and DTGrow and TheMista will also make a return. Team Last Resort submits a new player, Deranging and puCK is back from Convergence. Gimix has been added in place of viOLet (who is owning the Sao Palo IEM event!). With no viOLet this week.. a new Champion will be crowned. It also means that because next week's Rundown is already full.. we will have 2 new winners in a row! Don't worry.. viOLet is back for Rundown #12!

CSN's The Rundown 8 with Rance Costa

Rundown #7 is in the book and it's another win for viOLet. This one was not as clear cut, with Destiny taking 2 maps from viOLet, being the first person to do so. Both viOLet and Destiny receive automatic invites to Rundown #8 and both have confirmed their participation. Look for even more new faces in Rundown #8 this week.

Due to the overwhelming amount of trolling that occurred following Rundown #7's championship and interview with Destiny, CSN has added a few feature to the show. Following this weeks championship, the phone lines will be open for the 'Troll Roll'. This segment is about the viewers and their likes and dislikes, their good and bad trolling. Viewers will have an opportunity to call in and rant to Rance and Gwin about anything.
