GameReplays.org: d.Apollo on e-Sports and Korea (02/07/2009)I have personal experience that e-sports is growing because before I had won any major tournaments and was just playing behind closed doors, I was afraid to express my opinion outside of the internet for my love towards gaming, I did not know how people would react because of the standard stereotypical nerd image that has been created by the media. That was back in 2003/2004, now in 2009 I am more than proud to talk about e-sports confidently to the media, to friends, to the public and have been playing down the stereotype that was given to us so long ago. Gaming has hit the mainstream and is only going to get bigger.

UKCT: tALz joins Dignitas! (02/06/2009)Today is a sad but at the same time a very exciting day. I've really enjoyed my time at TCM playing with some really nice and talented players and I wish them the best of luck. Dignitas are one of the best teams in UK at the moment and I've heard nothing but great things about the organisation. I have played with all of the Dignitas players many times in gathers and with Jungleboy for about 7 years now. I hope to bring some new ideas to motivate dignitas to win many lans and online competitions in the future. Believe in me, believe in Dignitas.

Slidestar.org: HotSwat joins Team Dignitas (28/05/2009)Last night Team Dignitas announced an addition to their Trackmania team that shocked some people. Considering the fact that the ESL Pro Series UK Season 2 includes Trackmania as an official title, and that Trackmania is planned to continue at least into Season 3 this decision shouldn't come as too much of a shock to anyone. Team Dignitas is a UK based organisation so it makes sense that they want to support the UK community on as many games as possible, due to the apparent success and ability of some of the drivers in the current EPS season it is hardly suprising that many UK based organisation are gaining interest in Trackmania and are happy to recruit up and coming players.
