As I was trying to find newsworthy material for this entry, I became curious about gaming tournaments. Gaming competitions are newsworthy, so I found some dates for some tournaments.

I searched for some tournaments over in Europe, because I know that there is quite a few reading this from there, but my search didn't come back as fruitful as it did when searching for some in America. In fact, it seems that most of the sanctioned tournaments with sponsors and whatnot are ending soon. In Europe especially, a majority of the tournaments are ending on January 15, 2014. However, that is for the traditional tournament style where you go to a big location and go against other teams/players head on. The online games, like Hearthstone, are still going. There is a tournament for Hearthstone starting on January 19, 2014. For information about the Hearthstone tournament, and other European Tournaments, click here.
I guess while I am talking about gaming tournaments, I could discuss my experience in tournaments. I have been in only one gaming tournament. In December 2013, I competed in the Osu! Challengers Tournament in the Beginner's Level. I am not really accustomed with osu!standard, but I wanted to try it out in a competitive setting. I ended up finishing in 2nd Place. It was fun, but it also reaffirmed the fact that I should remain an osu!mania player. While training for the tournament, my rank in osu!mania dropped significantly.
I am thinking of changing the format for Tuesday entries. Sometimes there isn't a lot of news that is fresh enough for me to show you here. I mean, I will still link you to the stories and whatnot, but I would mainly just offer my opinions on the articles. Anyway, I want to also talk about gaming experiences and other gaming related information as well, not just current news articles. I will figure something out.
Well, that's all for this week's 3³ Gaming NEWSday. Make sure to stop back in on Thursday for the next Review Post. I still haven't decided what it will be. I am leaning toward Grand Theft Auto III, but I have finished a few games so far this year that I have a few to choose to from. Anyway, I hope you see no Game Over Screens!
