The End is The Beginning is The End

Just finished reading the Dark Tower series. And for now let me be the wordslinger. Thankee-sai!

The Dark Tower series tells the tale of Roland Deschain and his qeust for the elusive Dark Tower. The sotry begins in Out-World where Roland chases the "man in black" whom he think knows the way to the Dark Tower. In his journey, he draws 3 companions from our world to accompany him in his quest. What's so capturing about the book is how the author connects our world to Roland's world and to other worlds as well. While the main plot is Roland's quest to reach to Dark Tower (not to save it I tell yah, but to reach it and find out just what is inside) the character development remains rich in pertinent detail while preserving the mood of the story. In other words, there never was a dull moment in the series. As the story progresses, the excitement increases exponentially leaving the readers gasping for air by the time they reach the last book. The book was masterfully done and exquisitely rich with details, many readers will either praise Sai-King or condemn him to hell by the time they finish the book. But we should always remember that Sai-King did not made these things up, he only wrote down what he saw.

While I was reading the series, two questions persistently troubles my mind every now and then, and maybe as a reader of The Dark Tower series you might probably encounter these questions. "What will happen to Roland after he reaches the Tower? and "What is inside the Tower?" But I know you all know the answer, most of us just can't accept it.

It's ka

And as for me, Ves-Ka'Gan sings beautifully inside my head. what more can i ask for?! :D

Long day and pleasant nights! Thankee-sai! :D

Once is enough, Twice is another, Three is Triple Kill!!

The other day Celsus informed us that there was to be a DotA tournament the next day somewhere in San Antonio. Andrew and I wanted to join but unfortunately our teammate Gelosas wasn't around so we kinda decided not to join unless we manage to get our third member. Yesterday while Cherrie and I were playing DotA AI in h5, Andrew and Dianne came and informed us that team Gebranka (Celsus, Marksman, Ewan) were banned from the DotA tourney which was to be held that day at 5:30 pm. So Andrew decided to forego with joining the tourney with Dianne as our third member. Although Dianne was very pressured by our advices she still enlisted herself as our team member. when we arrived there we discovered that we can afford to have an alternate member, so we decided to pick Celsus as our alternate. Since it was the Team Gebranka who were banned and not the individual players. so with Dianne off the hook, we started the match with confidence and great pressure because I was dumb enough to put Gebranka as our team name. we had to live up to that name or be damned by celsus's team for the rest of our lives.

The first match was against Team Ziggurat (whom I've heard were the ones who requested for Marksman's team to be banned). The lineup was as followed

Scourge: Me/Lich , Drew/Medusa , Celsus/Krobelus

Sentinel: Rhasta , Sven , Sniper

the match was good but what brought them down was their WTF item build, Skill tree, and their WTF farming. Sniper decided to make a caster sniper, Cleaving Sven, and Double Eul's rhasta. while rhasta managed to pawn Andrew's ass in the early game, sniper and sven were very outmatched in their lane. also they were surprized by our new hunting tactics which was the "Need help? ill TP = Ownage" tactic. also after medusa got enough money from farming while me and cel manages to push the 3 heroes with just the 2 of us, he managed to have his revenge with rhasta. :D the match was good. one thing i couldn'y forget was when we ambushed sven while farming in the bottom lane with 15 of our creeps. basta pinanood lang namin sya magfarm habang binabarya sya ng creep namin tapos nung kalahati na lang buhay nya saka namin pinatay. napakaWTF talaga :P

The Second match was against some team from Calamba daw. basta ang masasabi ko lang... kilala nyo sina padizo? yung naglalaro sa Gandalf na may kasamang girl na naglalaro? kaya nilang durugin yun team na yun ng walang hirap. the match was like a break for us. the line-up were:

Scourge: Me/Lich , Celsus/Krob , Drew/Doom

Sentinel: Morphling , Rhasta , Syllabear

basta nakakatawa. panoorin nyo na lang yung replay. natatawa talaga ako level 3 first blod ni Lich. grabe yun yung pinakamabilis kong first blood. lvl 10 na ako yung rhasta 5 pa lang yta o 4. basta wtf talaga. nasiraan kami ng 1 tower kasi pabaya si andrew (hehe joke lang!), basta nagpupush na kasi kami nun tapos nagttrip na lang kami kaya di namin napansin na binabasag na pala ng creep yung 1st tower ni drew. wawa sila creep pa nakabasag ng tower. rexxar lololz! :P

yung Finals yung sobrang pinagisipan namin kasi team Area51 yung kalaban namin comprised of Dim, Rey, and Arct tapos AP game sya tapos halinhinan sa pagpili ng heroes so expected namin na lich ang unang kukunin kasi lakas deny. fortunately for us, eventhough di kami nanalo sa toss nakuha parin namin yun lich kasi pinili nilang ideny kay celsus yung krob. but denying celsus krobelus was their greatest mistake kasi ang pinili ni cel ay si nevermore. while drew happily picks doom bringer, the other team picked sniper and venomancer to complete the lineup

Scourge: Me/Lich , Celsus/Nevermore , Drew/Doom

Sentinel: Dim/Venomancer , Arct/Sniper , Rey/Krobelus

so our plan was to harrass sniper para di lumaki. fortunately katapat ko sya. ayun harassed sya. basta ang galing. masasabi ko lang, kung wala kaming manok malamang talo kami. di kami naubusan ng wards so di naambush si drew tapos di na kami halos umuuwi gawa ng manok. pero yun yung pinakamagandang laro nung gabing yun. :D

all in all that was a great way to end the DotA sem, and although wala si Gelosas alam kong masaya parin sya para sa amin. para sayo yung panalo namin Gelo! Mabuhay!! Rexxar Lololz!! ingat ka jan tol!
