Did you know that the Dutch teams are closer to the UK teams after Round 8? posted: Sep 12th, 2009 Things have changed a little bit at the ESL Championship 2009. Satori, the AAA Class leader, allowed 4XTT from Belgium already yesterday to match the score for Round 7. The 19-pointer in Round 8 was three points ahead of the field again, and nothing seems to be in Satori's way any longer to get past the 21-point average level after ten rounds.
Italy's former Ex3mo 8-way bronze medalist Luca Stanga informed the NSL News that Spinapsi is not competing for the United Kingdom, as the ESL leaderboard indicated earlier.
Spinapsi is an Italian team, and the NSL News will hopefully follow up with... (more)
Did you know that UK's AAA Class teams carry the ESL load so far? posted: Sep 11th, 2009 There is some pressure on the new national 4-way champion of the United Kingdom at the ESL Championship 2009. The pressure on Satori is not put up by another 4-way team on competition site in Hibaldstow this weekend. It is more the team's situation after the UK Nationals 2009 and the FAI World Cup 2009.
The NSL News story provided some insights with the story on 8 September 2009. So far, Satori is fully living up to the great expectations and stands with a 22.3 average after today's seven rounds. The only question this weekend is whether Satori will set another new national record average after... (more)

Did you know that Hayabusa Defence had the last word at the World Cup 2009? posted: Sep 8th, 2009 The NSL News has not offered the conclusion of the Fun Flag story at the FAI World Cup 2009 yet.
The video of the wild battle for the flag after French videographer Sylvain Girault had dropped it from his parachute was posted with the story on 3 September 2009. This was the last Fun Flag update before the NSL News left Prostejov.
There were already rumors by then that France was not in possession of the flag any longer after winning it on the battlefield in the landing area. These rumors connected the UK delegation once again with the flag, although there was no conformation from UK teams... (more)
Did you know that Satori is eager to post more world class scores this weekend? posted: Sep 8th, 2009 The internal competition of the five 4-way teams from the United Kingdom at the FAI World Cup 2009 ended with a clear victory of Sonicnutz.
It was a little bit complicated to determine the fair rankings of all teams since the all-female lineup, Kaizen, competed in the female 4-way category and completed all ten rounds. There was no cut for semifinals and finals in this event due to the low number of teams.
Sonicnutz was the only British 4-way team in the Open Class that made the first cut into the semifinals and was finished after nine rounds. Phobia, Fusion and Escondido completed eight... (more)
Did you know that new photo galleries offer a better review of the World Cup 2009? posted: Sep 7th, 2009 The NSL News camera took a lot of photos at the FAI World Cup 2009, and only a few of them eventually make it into the stories. The photos are useful for upcoming reviews of the event. However, many of them never make it to the public eye, which they are actually meant for.
The NSL News now created a few galleries with all the photos that were taken in Prostejov. They are not organized in a very specific way, and many of them were also shown on CamScore's DZ-TV during the World Cup. These galleries offer the audience another opportunity to get an even better idea of what happened at the... (more)
