20id's Team Fortress 2 division has recently gone through a makeover that some may consider revitalizing and exciting. Gone from the team is longtime member Alex 'alexwut' Anthone combined with Chris 'ginc' Polan deciding to take a more managerial role with the team. Thus we're pleased to announce the arrival of 3 new members; jmitchell, perfekt, and dummy. The three were a packaged deal that have very strong gaming backgrounds stemming from a productive tenure with our rivals over at Pandemic. We are very pleased to have them on our team and look forward to competiting alongside them.
The additions and subtractions have left us with a very different makeup, we have more flexibility then previous roster lineups allowed. The new roster looks something like this:
On related match news, we're currently rolling through the Caleague playoffs with recent victories over HeX and Paradigm Shift and we're looking very promising in taking the CAL title. CEVO is due to announce it's new upcoming season and the CGS has announced a $50,000 TF2 & CS1.6 tournament that ends with finals being played at the combine (which is normally held at the playboy mansion). This has led to the TF2 community revival and we welcome the new competition that is bound to emerge.
On LAN news; I have received many questions asking if we'll be attending the NVISION 08 TF2 tournament... chances are we won't. The money just isn't there to cover our team travelling costs and unless a sudden sponsor emerges the outcome looks bleak. This is a shame too because even with the stiff competition our chances still looked bright. You never know though, miracles do happen!
I don't really know how to end this amazing first news post but I did read something awesome at the kanye west concert.. I leave you with “The Missing Banister Theory”: “When walking down the street, you can walk in one line perfectly without ever falling over. Now take the same city block, make it a foot wider and then put it a hundred stories high. You’re going to be so focused on the fact that you don’t have a banister that you’re more likely to fall because of it.
I don't care if you didn't like that. -[20id]cyzer
The inaugural CEVO season is at an end and nearly every team in NA is making roster adjustments. 20ID is no exception with vane and kaybee hanging up their power gloves midseason to focus on school. Our roster depth was on full display as alex and drakka seamlessly transitioned into the starting lineup, helping us bring home a second place trophy and some cash.
With xerxes recently going inactive, 20ID joins the flock of TF2 teams looking for players. After several grueling interviews and strenuous tests, we are proud to announce the acquisition of our newest member: cyzer.

Why are you guys always talking shit... at least he's giving us updates.
Last I checked, we don't have any dedicated news guys anymore, so you should be thankful you're getting anything.
I mean, all you guys do is sit in the Bub Club channel and circle jerk anyway.

that honestly doesnt even deserve a response.
if you are going to do something, do it correctly.
put effort into the things that you do an take pride in them.
all these things do is take up space with blah text. nice to know the team is now a blog.

CEVO Professional Season 1: Playoffs have begun! 20ID played its first CEVO-P Playoff match Monday night against fragDominant on cp_well. This was a long and intense match with a lot of back-and-forth action. 20ID was able to pull out the victory with a final score of 4-0. 20ID’s lineup was: drakka, ginc, hubris, motard, alex, and xerxes. The match was gamecasted by the folks at pwnageTV. You can watch a recording of the cast here.
Round 2 will begin Thursday evening, where 20ID will play against makeShift on cp_granary.
Roster adjustments have been a constant concern with the 20ID Call of Duty 4 division, but there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. With the recent departure of "brg", former starter for the squad, the team has acquired two new members to stabilize and strengthen its roster. The two new members are Dave "phreak" Grant and Jon "copeland" Golan. 20ID.cod4 now has a six man roster and is becoming stronger than ever. Look for more wins and great matches in Cevo-P and Cal-M.
Roster:
Taz “SpAz” Carper Will “Eemz” Lovelock Oscar “Abz” Salazar Gabe “Spec-“ Jon "copeland" Golan Dave "phreak" Grant

Yeah I saw the game Jami, congrats buddy. I do still play football but finished with Uni so don't have a team anymore. I actually played on the great britain university team this year, which is about div 3 ncaa level at best. And the giants can't afford me because they're spending all their money on D Ends
Daskro it doesn't say that 'daskro' or 'daskrolator' or anything like that is going to London, I found you on the roster page
confusing!!!!!
