I was reading some Chinese finanical newspaper this morning and suddenly I saw Teamliquid! It's a report about BlizzCon (thanks to the tremendous success of WoW, Chinese business media love Blizzard lol) on 21st Century Business Herald, a pretty good local news agent. Well, they make stupid mistake sometimes =[

Quick translation:

James Lampkin, from Canada, was excited about his first BlizzCon participation. Back when he was a college student, he has been one of the 4 co-founders of Team Liquid, one of the most professional WoW fansites in North America. (LOL)

Kennigit, did some young Chiense female reporter do an interview with you? I know the reporter of this article -_-

I move that we change the Broodwar forum into the WoW forum.
Or at least do that for the next April Fools day.
