There is a problem in South Africa. It’s the regular rise and quick death of small events and organisations that focus on gaming – both casually and competitively.

September already… And poor old September, it always has to worry about October and the fact it brings rAge. It doesn’t stop September from having its share of gaming events however. Weekend One (5 to 7 September) The first weekend of every month is generally the busiest one, and September appears to not want to buck the trend. Ground Zero…

Yes, a number of this year’s events have seen lower numbers than previously and it’s been…
