First off Im just going to
tell you that Inferno Online (it-cafe) in
Stockholm is hosting two different tournaments
between 20-22 February. One of these tours are
called the amature-tour and the other
one elite-tour.. Difference
being that in the elite-tour we will have the
Swedish elite playing.. Which makes sense if you
think about it. Anyway, People we know will be
there is Tessla.dp and haZe.dp ..
followed by 4L-LaWn, 4K-FuRy and
possibly [nDiv]XzideZ.
Good luck to
everyone. Pictures will be taken and uploaded to
the site later! |

And now, a roundup of World
of Warcraft related newsposts. • Gamespot has a
new preview of Wow alongside 8 new very nice
screenshots. Check it out right HERE.
• The
official forum have been updated
with some new pictures/icons. Check em out right
HERE.
• The
Features page on the official page have
also been updated with new information.. Not much
but its always something. Lookie Lookie.
•
Wowlands got themselves a little chat with writer
of the "War of the Ancients" trilogy,
Richard A. Knaak, and it turned out to a very nice
piece of interview. For everyone who's even
slightly interested in the World of Warcraft, they
should 1) Read the interview and then 2) buy all
the books. Run hippie run .. to the interview!
And
remember that we still haven't seen the slightest
hint of when the new Wow movie comes online
nor when we will see the Troll/Gnomes
screenshots. Plus we have one bigass Beta
waiting for us.. Hopefully in the beginning of the
next month. |

Its Valentine's Day and as
always Blizzard does something special for the
community. Today they gave us 10 all new Valentine's Day related
screenshots from the World of WarCraft
mmorpg game.
Also, they release the second
Wallpaper in the "Korean" Series of painted wow
pictures from an Korean computer-magazine Have a
look at it right HERE, Personally I don't
like it at all because I don't really like the way
its painted.. But on the other hand, its better
then nothing at all.
And thanks to Katricia
we've got much new information today due to her
Q/A post she use to do in
the B.net forum. And the information given to us
means we have even more to look forward to in the
coming weeks.
Will there be special
events held in the game for holidays?
Yes! There will be special events held
for both “real” holidays and special days
created in World of
Warcraft.
Can we get some new
Gnome Screenshots? We’ll have some new
Gnome shots for you next week, along with a few
new Trolls too.
~Kat :)
| Read the whole thing right
HERE. Hopefully they have
redesigned the Trolls from Goofy looking retards
to sometime more related to the beloved
Axethrowers(Forest Trolls) from Wc2. I
mean.. The playable Trolls in WoW are Island
Trolls, directly related to the Jungle Trolls of
Stranglethorn, but still they look nothing alike..
Weird. But that will hopefully change in the end
of the open beta. I have no problems with Gnomes..
They are tiny weird retards to start with so how
they look makes no difference. |

Its been a very good week so
far when it comes to World of Warcraft related
news and updates. We haven't got this much new
information about the upcoming MMORPG from
Blizzard since E3 2003. Among other thing we can
look forward to a new WoW movie coming very soon.
Lets start with the news sum up.
- The
latest we got is these 5 all new very
awesome looking screenshots taken by the official
Alphatesters Check em out right HERE.
- Worldofwar.net have
finally release all parts of their wow-review from OneMadOgre's
trip to Blizzard HQ. These last parts added is
Spells and Rituals, Crafts, Places and People, Interfaces and the latest
one: Gameplay.
- HomeLan Fed have had a
chat with Blizzard's Shane Dabiri regarding World
of Warcraft and the current status of the alpha
and when the Beta starts, among other thins. Its a
good read, check it out HERE.
- WoW.Warcraftstrategy.com
have atlast got their Lore up and running.
They don't have everything online right now but
among other things they got some really nice
information about the Forsaken, Cult of the
Damned, World History and the many different
versions of the Trolls. The best Lore so
far I say when it comes to overall Warcraft
information. Be sure to visit the page more then
once everyday just to keep yourself updated on the
world of Warcraft. Check the page right HERE.
- Blizzard have
updated the official World of Warcraft FAQ with
over 8 pages of answers to the most asked
questions to this date. Read em right HERE.
- And finally,
as I said before, according to Katricia
from the Battle.net forums, we can expect a new
wow-movie coming out at the end of this week,
or possibly early next week.
Well theta's
about it, the top stories this week related to our
beloved World of Warcraft MMORPG game. One last
thing though.. According to Vivendi
Universal Games they expect to have WoW out on the
market in September this year. And it
actually makes a bit of sense. We just have to
wait and see how Blizzard feels about that
release-date |

We have now decided to leave
the league due to insufficient amount of working
lineups due to the lack of 2v2 players among other
things. Our official statement can be found below,
Only in Swedish:
----- - --- - --- -- --- --
- - - --- -- - - --- - --- - -- -- - - - - - - -
- - Efter vi i darkpraetors snackat och
diskuterat om ämnet har vi bestämt oss för att
helt enkelt hoppa av TFT ligan här på GE pga
följande orsaker:
- Vi har inte en
komplett lineup (saknar mer eller mindre helt
2v2-lag som man överhuvudtaget kan kallas
samspelat) Och detta resulterar för det mesta
med 2 autolosses. - Bland annat pga att en
viktig del i våran förra lineup(2v2 lag tex)
tidigare i vår lämnat dp, har det sänkt moralen
och spelglädjen hos de kvarvarande spelarna. Och
det blir inte precis bättre stämmning av att vi
får extremt dåliga resultat i ligan som direkt
påföljd av detta :) - Bevisligen har vi just
nu ingenting att göra i Div1.
Extremt
tråktigt att det blivit såhär men vi måste
försöka bygga upp en ny lineup innan vi kan
spela i någon liknande liga igen. Att stanna
kvar och spela som vi gör nu i ligan är ... inte
precis bra PR när man söker nya spelare
^^.
Vi ska som sagt sätta ihop ett nytt
lag och vi hoppas på att folk förstår varför vi
lämnar ligan. Vi hoppas även att folk ser på
situationen i sin helhet och inte stirrar sig
blint på resultaten... Men med dagens community
kommer det knappast hända :D ----- - --- -
--- -- --- -- - - - --- -- - - --- - --- - -- --
- - - - - - - - -
| But do not
fear! We will be back as always and with a new
lineup and with the help of upcoming stuff from
our sponsor q-pad.se, we hope to find
new players. So stay tuned. |
| |
|
|
|
The results of this match is
pretty much the results we expected. Due to the
fact that nDiv was the only clan in the League in
the same area of skill as us, and we lost against
them, we see no good outcome for us in this
league. We will let you know our decisions later
this coming week regarding our future in the
league. The main problem for us right now is not
that we lack the talent or skill, but the fighting
spirit with comes from the fact that we have no
working 2v2 teams and some inactive
members.
So, as a direct result to the poor
performers from our side so far in this league we
will look over our current lineup and be looking
for new members. We are looking for: • A
whole lot of 2v2 Teams. (lvl15+) All combinations
of races. • 1v1 Players (lvl
25+)
If you are interested please
contact us via e-mail (mailto:Fenix@team-sweden.com?subject=Staff_msg), IRC
(channel #darkpraetors on quakenet) or
B.net (channel clan dlp).
We will
also be removing some of our inactive players from
the clan within a few days from now.
To end
of this newpost I just wanted to give you a hint
of some very good news coming up hopefully during
the coming week. So stay tuned. |

Time for match number two for
us in Gamingeye's Frozen Throne League. And once
again we have had some problems creating a good
2v2 lineup due to people being away and more or
less inactive. We plated against the clan soTa
today, which more or less consist of very skilled
members from such clans as SK and Identity Gaming
(aka planB and Headz)
- -
- - - - --- -- --- - -- -- -- --- -- --
- 2v2: Nimo & Pelleh vs. Devilwind.dp
& MaDDii.dp 0 - 0 <-- Postponed 2v2:
Exile & Dewe vs. Tessla.dp & haZe.dp 2 -
0 1v1: Tiger vs. Tassadar.dp 2 - 0
1v1: SuRviVoR vs. DevilwinD.dp 2 - 0
1v1: Twisted vs. haZe.dp 2 - 1 - -
- - - - --- -- --- - -- -- -- --- -- --
- | Current
result: 3-0 (6-1) to soTa. The
postponed 2v2 match will be played on a later
date.

First gameday in the
Gamingeye Frozen Throne League for us, and the
first opponent for us is nDiv, Aka Darkswarm. This
match is more or less funny for us because we have
almost no working 2v2 lineup right now while nDiv
have 3 ex-darkpraetors in it .. also known as more
or less our old complete 2v2 lineup :D Anyway,
here is tonight's lineup:
1v1
A: Zer0.dp - [nDiv]ViXen - 0-2 1v1 B:
haZe.dp - [nDiv]Figuren - 0-2 1v1 C:
Devilwind.dp - [nDiv]XzideZ - 1-2 2v2
A: MaDDii.dp & DevilwinD.dp - [nDiv]Fguren
& [nDiv]XzideZ - 1-2 2v2 B:
HarB.dp & Superior.dp - [nDiv]mobilat &
[nDiv]terwe - 2-0 (1
wo) | Overall score:
dp 4-6 nDiv in maps so far.. Meaning they are in
led with 3-1 and have won the clanwar. Our 2v2
teams worked much better then we planned and hoped
so this war was not in vain. The last 1v1 will be
played tomorrow. Gratz nDiv. Update: Zer0 lost
against ViXen in the last match in this cw. Makes
no difference but still. Once again,
congratulations nDiv. Final result: 4-1 to
nDiv.
For more information, rules and maps
being played press HERE. (Swedish &
..Partly some English).
In other news, I
would like to welcome MaDDii.dp to the
clan. He will be a great help when it comes to 2v2
games in the future and he will also be to count
with when it comes to 1v1. His information page
will be added later tonight. Till then you can
check out his B.net account right over HERE |

We've got a whole bunch of
wow related updates and pictures given to us these
last couple of days and we really love Blizzard
for that. Its not long now before the official
beta finally starts over in the States,
Korea and Canada, the signup for the
beta starts in just a few hours. But before we get
to that.. Here is a summary of the latest World of
Warcraft news:
• 6 New World of Warcraft
screenshots. You just got to love this game..
Except the fact that some of the skins looks very
very bad right now. Check out the new pix right
HERE. Also, don't forget
to check out the Troll picture.
• World of
Warcraft Beta signup starts this week.
Exact information from Blizzard's own GF is right
here:
At 6:00 pm PST on Wednesday,
January 28th, the signup period for the
World of Warcraft Beta Test will officially
begin. We will provide a link to the beta-test
application right here in the news section at
that time. Testers are not going to be chosen on
a first-come, first-served basis, so you will be
able to submit an application and receive equal
consideration anytime during the signup period,
which will end on Wednesday, February 4th at
6:00 pm PST. Please note that multiple
submissions from the same household will result
in complete disqualification.
For this
initial phase of the World of Warcraft beta
test, we will only be able to accept
applications from Canada, Korea, and the US. The
test for Europe and other countries around the
world will happen later this year. Please do not
contact us for further information regarding the
beta test; we will be posting a FAQ in the days
ahead. | • WorldofWar.net have done a
visit over at Blizzard HQ and done a very bigass
review of World of Warcraft. They have split up
the whole thing into a whole bunch of parts and so
far we can read 8 of them. Be sure to read
everything about it right HERE. |

Today (or actually Friday) we
first off all lost zEx due to inactivity
and his decision to quite playing wc3 all
together. After that I got a msg about
XzideZ leaving. After asking him why and
telling the others in the clan we got the news
that FrezZ and mobilat also would
leave the clan and alongside XzideZ join clan
Ds, aka DarkSwarm. Reason being that they
think they will have a better chance getting into
wc3l and because they have old teammates in the
clan (atleast some of them). There is nothing
we can do about this now other then say GL with
you plans and all that kinda stuff. This also
means we have a rather great empty space when it
comes to the team-lineup. We will be getting into
that problem very soon.
We also decided to
kick the not so well-known tulinenpeperoni
from the clan. This is because he was mobilats
only teammate and because he haven't made any type
of effort when it comes to be active/social with
the rest of the clan neither on IRC or
B.net.
This really kicked the crap out of
our plans when it comes to wc3l and the
Gamingeye.wc3 Clan-league. But we will see to it
that it will work.. Sooner or later.
This
ends this newpost, stay tuned for the new version
of our q-pad mousepad design and ...Candy!

Hellu again, this is our
first newpost in the year 2004. I dont have
much to talk about but its better then nothing at
all. First of all, I got lots and lots of picture
from our New Years Eve ... "party" and I will have
them online as soon as possible. Till then you
can always see THIS movie over and
over and over again until .. you go
crazy.
Some good news, haZe.dp and
Tessla.dp ended up on some very nice places
in the Monsterplay LAN this weekend.
haZe.dp ended 3:rd and Tessla on
4:th place while rew-Snaggy took home the second
place and 4k-LaWn won the whole thing.
Congratulations to you all. Our boys won tickets
to the next Monsterplay LAN while
the other two got a whole lot of money.
Also, the Archive Page is finally
more or less complete. Most of the old archive
pages has some link, picture, html problems. This
is because I have just ctrl+c the pages from
another folder and put them in a new folder.
Anyway, the information is the important part of
the archive and all that stuff are still there.
Everything else should be gone. |

Well Im back and I have some
stuff to write about. First of all, I hope
everyone have had a nice xmas with friends/family
and all that kinda crap. Santa has been
paying everyone a visit, even us in dp, believe it
or not. Well, no Santa wanted to visit mec.dp so
now he's crying himself to sleep every night.
Anyhow, As you can see I have been updating the
"Other" box quite often the last couple of days...
I use that box for the not so clanrelated and/or
big clannews. Its also because I don't feel like
posting one of these when I know that the news
wont become more then 2-3 lines.. Most of it being
no-make-sense-talk. Kinda like this
one!
Latest page updated: Added a whole lot
of new previews to the StarGirl page. This also
means I've added more then 10 new StarGirls to the
page overall. Have a looksie.
Other
page-related news: Not much.. Well, I will be
added a whole lot of New Years Eve pictures later
on this week.. Hopefully. It will include Me, mec,
narc, ahz, orm and raziel if anyone gives a
flyingfuck.
And to end this newpost, From
us all to most of you people, a happy new year!
See ya in 2004.
