KSK quits GODSGARDEN

It seems like KSK's life is taking a big hit. Not only there'll be Kao TV, but he also quits GODSGARDEN.  If you see GG's staff page, his name is now in cooperators section instead of (main) organizer with Inaba-san.

Even GODSGARDEN TV goes on, there'll not be KSK.

This's really sad. He's the fun factor of the streams, and he just created a private chat stream channel in January. He did a great PR job for GG, and I think he paid his money to fly to Las Vegas to talk about Evo Japan last year.

Tokido wins Beat by Contest

Tokido and Mago came back to Japan from Switzerland today. The two also talked about the tournament in Tokido's own streaming channel.

They went to compete in Beat by Contest tournament. Tokido won the Super Street Fighter IV Singles. He and Mago finished the second place in Team (2 on 2). Mago was impressed by the skills of the western top players.

KSK in Game no Jikan (Feb 17)

KSK made an appearance in Game no Jikan show again today (Feb 17). He went to assist the show for Marvel vs. Capcom 3. (game producer Niitsuma was there, too) He fought KayoPolice. He teached Nagisa (to play her first fighting game) and also fought with the show producer again. The outcome isn't actually surprise, since the game just came out in Japan that day. KSK lost all 7 games...

P.S. After the show, KSK drove Nagisa home, but she forgot her cellphone on his car so he had to go back again despite her saying she can get it next time (probably next week) they meet and him saying he's sleepy. The show ended around 3 AM. He came back home 11 AM.

Kao TV no more?

Yesterday, in his private channel, KSK revealed that Gamer's Vision is in serious trouble. The electricity was cut and he can't stream there. Now he can only stream via his iPhone outside.

Vision was closed since November and was expected to return to business in December (2010), January, then February. However, it never happened. You saw many staff there, but there's no service. (It's now net/game/manga cafe, not game center)

If you know KSK, Vision isn't something to worry. His life is tough and he still tried so hard to keep Vision go on. (Maybe it's a not a good idea?) We can only hope he' just doing ok with his life.

(KSK is GG co-founder, but GG is still fine, since they're separated.)
