Latest updatooosss:

FIFA: Jali passed group stage, now in Elimination stage. 1st up is against Australia

DoTA: Kingsurf is playing their final group stage opponent, Vietnam but they already won 2 previous match, so they already confirmed to Elimination stage.

CoD4: [ESP]axe and RVG proceed to next stage. Sadly, not for [ESP]wow.

Updattooossss:

DoTA: Kingsurf will only start their Quarter Finals onwards tomorrow, with Singapore being their 1st opponent.

FIFA: Si_Jali proceed to Semi-Finals against Vietnam tomorrow.

GH3: Win against Thailand, but lost to Vietnam. No quarter finals, because they only take 1 players from our group.

LOL, thanks TPK. But check out the explanation on Multiplay about my GH group

Alright, final update of the day...CoD4.

[ESP]aXe just finished their match against BF.nut. BF.nut proved to be too strong where ESP got rolled by them with 14 - 0 and 14 - 2 score for each round. That marked their third lost in the league stage.

RVG apparently are doing quite ok with 3 wins and 1 lost in the league stage. Podium finish is possible.

Updatoosss for today.

DoTA: Kingsurf is now playing their Quarter Finals match against Impreza of Singapore

FIFA'08: Jali already booked a place in the finalsss!!

Guitar Hero 3: The marshals made a mistake yesterday and Malaysia is now playing in Quarter Finals against Phillippines today!

NFS ProStreet: FoRza already finished his tournament as 2nd Runner-Up, losing to Thailand in Semi and won against Philippines in 3rd/4rd place match.

DoTA Open Category: Tbun-W4si just the won finals couple of minutes ago. Champioonee, wohooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

CoD 4: Haven't started yet.

It's not suprising if the opponent is BF.nut, but the rest of the field I wonder too.
Yeah man, where are you?

Single elimination

DNA-SK vs CT-GoV for sure.

You are correct.

Latest updatosss:

DoTA: Kingsurf lost to New Zealand in the semis!

There goes our last hope for gold medal. With that defeat, we also lost in the race for overall champion title.

Kingsurf is scheduled to meet the Indonesian powerhouse, XcN for 3rd/4th place.

DoTA Open Category: CT-GoV received 3rd place after defeating another Malaysian team, DNA-SK.

Unfortunately, no. Lost to New Zealand.
But they managed to give Team Malaysia a bronze medal by defeating XcN! Although the method was weird as organizer stopped the game half-way because of time constraint, thus the winner was chosen by points.

Basically, that's the end of Team Malaysia's WCG Asian Championship campaign with 1 gold and 2 bronze. The only game still playing now is Call of Duty 4 in the WCG Singapore Open Category.

Final update of the day - RVG ended up as 4th place receiver in the WCG Singapore CoD4 Open Category.
All right, see you next week at WCG Malaysia 2008!
