About Us
The Spawn Room is an eSports hub for new and experienced gamers.
The Spawn Room is a website about information. We love data and we love presenting it in a useful way. With this, we are working hard to provide a comprehensive gaming and eSports website that accomplishes two main goals:
- Introduce and guide new players into eSports.
- Provide an environment for players and fans to excel in eSports.
We will accomplish these two goals by developing powerful tools to discover and share information. We believe that by providing a platform for information, with tools to analyze them, players and fans will be able to explore eSports like never before.
Our Current Features
- News and discussions
- Our RSS Robot aggregates eSports news from around the world and our users publish unqiue articles and discussions covering a wide range of topics with the ability to rate and comment them.
- Shows
- Our eSports shows page is a continuously updated reference for a wide range of eSports shows. If you like podcasts and in-depth discussion, I'm sure you can find something new and interesting.
- Calendar
- Our calendar is one of the most updated and comprehensive eSports calendars on the web. It is updated daily and we work hard to ensure everything from minor LANs to major tournaments are listed for everyone to find. And to make sure we don't miss anything, we've implemented an event queue for users to submit their own events. If you want it added, simply enter, submit, and wait for one of our mods or admins to pick it up.
- Hashtag
- The hashtag is a tiny feature, but one we feel is useful to all those Tweeting eSports fans out there. Help support events and organizations by Tweeting the hashtag listed in the box. The more people shouting it out, the more likely the world will see it.
- Whitelist
- The whitelist is a ad-block list for people who hate ads, but want to support eSports. Simply add the list to your ad-block, update it, and all the worlds top eSports websites will be unblocked. Besides wanting to support these sites, why would someone want to do this? Well the vast majority of these eSports websites have ads that are actually useful to their viewbase. Rather than ugly Google ads or intrusive videos, most eSports websites have the latest gaming products, other cool organizations, server hosting, etc. It's relative to your interests!
