2011 Roster Clean-up

Today is a somewhat sad but somewhat happy day. Sad for some, happy for others. This is because I intend to clean up our roster. By that, I mean de-rostering those who don't really play anymore, or are seldom seen on Battle.net. This also means rostering some members from our applicants list who have demonstrated their value recently.

Those who find themselves de-rostered, don't feel like you're shunned or that anyone's turned their back on you. Should your level of activity change, simply add yourself to our applicants list and you will be duely rostered. I simply want the roster to reflect those who can actually be expected to be found on battle.net. It's a bit disappointing when a new member comes to our team, sees our extensive roster and finds only a few members ever online. I aim to remove that disappointment.

So enough ramble, let me list those who are being de-rostered:

• Beherit - Also known as prOxi.Gorilla - Has been quite consistent in assuring me he will be hopping on the SC2 wagon since release. It still hasn't happened. Logan, you can add yourself to the applicants list if this time ever comes.
  
  
• Ratfink- Our trusty co-developer who helps me write the code for this website. He really shouldnt've been on the roster in the first place haha. He is not a competitive gamer. I just put him there for fun originally anyway!
  
  
• Pinkette - Also known as prOxi.Pink - Always a stalwart competitor in our Brood War days, this clan favourite of old hasn't managed to get into the swing of SC2. Alex, please add yourself to our applicants if you change your mind and find a way to get into SC2.
  
  
• epidiOn - Also known as prOxi.SouL)iO - Our very first American from way back in 2004. One of my favourite guys in general. Max, we really want you to come back! Please do!
  
  
• Legacy - I think we might've seen a little bit of Patrick back in the BETA days. Dude, where are you?
  
  
• Final - Ryan has poked his head into SC2 on a very occasional basis. This was a hard decision, but even a monthly visit is rare for Final.
  
  
• PlayazXR - Ant was pretty active in BETA. Since release, I'm not sure if he's even laddered at all.
  
  
• Spets1 - Spets is another one who has been with us from very early-on. We snagged this gosu from gH clan way back in the day and it was a good one! Spets, you're always welcome back, just install the damn game!
  
  
• bon - We all love Jordan but he's another one yet to install SC2 as far as I am aware.
  
  
• Beater - Beater was always one of our best players. Being from Europe, it is not currently possible for him to play with us. If he gets a north american version of SC2 to play with us, he will surely find himself back on the roster.

And let me list those who we will be welcoming into the roster:

• nubbin - This guy has shown his will to improve. He has been a participant in recent tournaments, and is quite active on Battle.net! Please welcome our new Protoss user nubbin!
  
  
• LSDiesel - A strong zerg up-and-comer. LSDiesel has been very active lately and is becoming well known among our team. We look forward to seeing how he does in future events.

To those who were de-rostered, again, it's nothing personal. It's just about being organised. Please feel free to talk to me on MSN if you have any questions, or just want to flame me ^_^

The roster list is now pretty much all our active members, however there are still some people who i have never met.

maybe i was lucky to sign in during sunday's tournament ;p
i'll b idle for some games if anyone wants when im free

ps. would love to see spets back :(

Alriiight I'm a proxi now! Thanks to Veom and Fight and Lucky and the rest for welcoming me and being cool since I started hanging out in the proxi channel. I'm always available for a practice matches or team game fun. Peace.

Grats to the dudes who got off apps list. Nubbin, gonna need some TvP practice with you hehe :)

sweet! thank you guys. im pretty psyched. lets get practicing and doing more events. i'd like to see some proxi cw's happening even if im not representing :)

I'm pretty sure I speak for all of the old school prOxiteam members that just because your not on the list doesn't mean your not part of the proxiteam family anymore.

Once a prOxi member, ALWAYS a prOxi member. <33333.

I support all the changes and agree with Dwain about reflecting actual gaming activity :P Welcome nubbin and diesel! <3 sort of expected to see Echoes added also.
The only person I am not familiar with on the roster now is jamestlt? Unless he's an aka I'm not aware of...wouldn't be the first time.

I actually come here everyday and watch all the game of the weeks, but I fully agree with being taken off the roaster. I play very little sc2 atm, about 100 in total since release, although i really do want to get into it. :/. it's such a shame i can't play with u guys from euro server, i guess blizzard will never implement cross realms though. maybe if in the future things are going really well we could look into a european division or something?

anyway, as bobo said, proxiteam is for life. bw was a million times more fun with u guys.

Jamestlt is FrenzyPain

...and his avatar is awesome

I think you did the right thing here Dwain.

This will only make my glorious return that much more glorious

hell yea beater!

lol such a boss

*cough* let Cool in *cough*

In the beater senario, my friend has sc2 and i don't think he plays it at all.. i'll ask him for the account?

Not sure anyone would simply give away their 60$ game, but if you think he does I say go for it!

We could also work out a deal where we swap accounts, but I don't see what he would use a european account for anyway.

er beater did you contact me on the NA server yesterday? I may very well have been a dream but I can't think :P

Frodighed! Rune er tilbage?!

Just to add a word of wisdom: you guys do realize that giving rune a North American account will kill all suspense in matches, right? We'll know the winner of tournaments before they're even planned and any clan wars will already have spoiled results and flying spaghetti monster help you if you try to play a King of the Hill with him around. It'll be like reading the end of every book first, but if that's what you guys want...

Nobody beats the Beater.

No I didn't, I'd lay off on the shrooms if I was you. If I ever get a NA account I will totally contact you first though!

Dwain, that's actually some pretty impressive Danish right there! No grammatical errors or anything. Spotless

Maar, you do realise that I've played a grand total of 6 ladder games since SC2's release, and perhaps 20 total 1v1s, right? Basically I'm going to be utter shit for at least a couple of weeks ;)
