Total number of women these guys have slept with offline: 0 - TiMMY8765, on 10/12/2007, -5/+53if anyone can win a championship based on sitting on your lazy ass all day and playing a game all week, it's us Americans!
- illegalamigo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+37Hey guys, let me save you some travel fare--the game is playable online!
- bdickason, on 10/12/2007, -3/+38There are about 11,000 attendees, 7 of which are from America. Not very good odds!
- Silentnite85, on 10/12/2007, -5/+39Pot calling the kettle black there huh?
- dunezone, on 10/12/2007, -4/+37From a distance that logo they have looks like a swastika.

- jonnydeformed, on 10/12/2007, -6/+33virgin, virgin, virgin, virgin, aaaaaaand virgin
- Nerdculture, on 10/12/2007, -5/+29Why does it matter if someone is a virgin or not? Seriously......
** I know you will undoubtedly say "OMFG you must be a virgin to say that." The answer is "No, I simply have the ovaries (as I am female) to say that you're being ***** immature." - benijuana, on 10/12/2007, -15/+38"Sadly, the team bears an uncanny resemblance to Kenny/Kyle in the WoW Southpark episode.:
no they don't - bdickason, on 10/12/2007, -10/+32they're fat.
- m3mn0n, on 10/12/2007, -6/+25They better bring the Sword of a Thousand Truths.
- annoyance, on 10/12/2007, -5/+24mom! more hot pockets!!!
- Seifey, on 10/12/2007, -2/+20@dunezone: Yeah, it kind of does have a "swastika 2.0" feel to it.

Dude all the way on the left looks like he spotted a plate of donuts across the room... - MackPrime, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16you win, move onto the lightning round.
- Markpdotcom, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14Um... they do... The fat one also sounds like Cartman... oh wait, they're all fat.
Do you think the skinny guy on the end is Kenny? :D
"WOW, sterilisation for a new generation!" - jer2eydevil88, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13Dig deep enough and rewarded you shall be

A real picture of the entire team that doesn't suck - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14I actually gained quite a bit of weight playing WoW (imagine that) - probably about 50 lbs in 2 yrs. Who cared, because I never left my house. I even work from home, so the only house-leaving I ever did was to go buy more food to stuff my fat face. Eventually my g/f left me (yeah, I had one, and she played too). I canceled my account last year when she left, and traded WoW for a RL activity of bike riding. Not your everyday Huffy, but a rather fancy road bike that I took out on one of our local rail trails here. I managed to lose almost all of that 50 lbs in about 6 months last year just from riding and modifying my diet to remove mac n cheese and pizza as my primary staples, as well as the 12 or 18 pack of beer I would put back almost nightly playing this stupid game.
Life is much better for me now. - Felbane, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11I said not all Asians are gold farmers/sellers, not all gold farmers/sells aren't Asian. I agree with you there :P.
- Felbane, on 10/12/2007, -14/+23Way to jump on the "make fun of something you know nothing about" bandwagon.
@Bdickason: It's an invitational based on the WoW Arena rankings. Sure there may be 11,000 attendees, however the number of people competing are very small.
@"Nerd/Virgin" Posts: You're the nerds sitting here posting on Digg, while they're the nerds taking a badass vacation in China for a chance to win part of $750,000. Who's coming out on top?
Also, way2racism. Not all Asians participate in illegal gold selling. - joper90, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10@jer2eydevil88 ..erm ok...
why is there always one that has to wear ill fitting sunglasses to 'try' and look cool...
/least they fit the stereotypical image the Chinese will have of all Americans.
// how many had to buy two plane tickets? - Gigabutt, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9is it just me or is the digg story title woefully inaccurate?
- LethalGeek, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11I'm sorry, but I love how it's a game's fault you:
Didn't exersize.
Ignored people.
Ate poorly.
Drank alot.
And that quiting a video game prompted to you get your act together (congrats btw). Call me crazy, maybe it was just you. - animalmuther76, on 07/30/2008, -1/+9WoW players take 12 hours not playing WoW??? buried as inaccurate
- obixx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8America's finest!
- m3mn0n, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7How can one kill that which has no life?
- luckynas, on 10/12/2007, -6/+12yes they dooo
- fudgeigor, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8What the ***** is wrong with you people?! How can you make fun of someone who is in a competition to make more cash in a ***** week playing a video game than you make in a whole year? Who cares if they are fat, so is a lot of America, the point is they are going to have fun possibly making money doing something they love, give them a break. And as for the virgin comment, I highly doubt you can reach your mid to late twenties in the United States and still remain a virgin, moms basement dweller or not.
- Neem, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6hahaha they are fat and play wow ....
/sarcasm
wow, just wow.
You would think the "smart" people here at digg would be above making fun of someone because they play an MMO and are overweight.
Disclaimer: I don't play wow. - m3mn0n, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Are you the guy behind Loose Change?
CONSPIRACY!!!11 - iblaine, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Go America...I hope these guys win. And if they somehow stay out of the country and never come back to America, that's ok too.
- violentvinyl, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6"** I know you will undoubtedly say "OMFG you must be a virgin to say that." The answer is "No, I simply have the ovaries (as I am female) to say that you're being ***** immature.""
female virgin = hot
male virgin = dork
got it? - MrFisty, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7Oh man. It's stuff like this that makes me really question my own gaming habits.
But then there's nothing like denial and another 10 hours of dungeon crawling through Oblivion. - turbod33, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Lethalgeek, it's not just the kids fault. These games are targeted to make you addicted. And for people who are very competitive in gaming, and have the right kind of personality, these games can be devistating. I'd say most of it is personal, because I didn't have a hard time not playing, but for a lot of my friends, they really just cant stop very easily. To the right personality, this game is crack.
- zeero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2lol typical looking nerds that look like they haven't stepped out of a basement in years.. in khaki pants...and shorts
- psychotron, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Marked as "lame" simply because of that smug-faced picture of whoever Sam Lingle is. He looks like a total douche.
- ColonelJessup, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Who cares? I see a lot of bashing here, honestly, who the ***** cares about what these people do? I sure as ***** don't. If you want to play warcraft all day, go right ahead. It doesn't bother me in the slightest.
People need to get off their high horse and leave everyone else alone. Last time I checked America was a free country, where you could do whatever you wanted to with your life. At least these guys have a hobby. - xJudahx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Why would you think that? You must be new here.
- dhakbar, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I'm so happy I quit this "game".
Enjoy waking up at 40 years old and wondering where the hell your youth went, losers. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4The guy in the middle of the team photo.... I just can't stop laughing.
- kesin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Whereas your "youth" is spent calling people losers on the internet? k.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Gamers? Hell most Americans are fat period now days.
- tizz66, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You spend 10 hours in dungeons in Oblivion? They're all the same bloody dungeon over and over again. The dungeons are the bits of Oblivion I got bored with quickest. At least WoW has a variety of maps for its dungeons...
- xJudahx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I've got a solution to help your hatred:
Stop reading the digg comments!
People say others are insecure because they themselves are. They don't understand other people that aren't in their sorry reality. - Riotblade, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2"Sadly, the team bears an uncanny resemblance to Kenny/Kyle in the WoW Southpark episode."
There's only one Kenny/Kyle. The rest are Cartman's. - rej1587, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Can someone explain the tournament a little more? I can't find any info.
What I'm curious about is how this works for an MMO? Is it just assumed that all players in the tournament have the highest levels and the best equipment? And then they just face eachother? - mefogus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Something tells me this will not be as important to the reputation of the USA as when ole Forrest Gump went to China and swept the world ping pong championships.
