Bug in the Great Firewall? Terrorist attacks? Obi-wan Kenobi? Anyway this rules. Edit: After cooling off this post really lacks content but seriously. When the blank bland squares full of despair and emptiness were suddenly replaced by the lights of Yongsan and the roars of the MBC commentators, I felt like the second coming was happening right now, before my eyes. I have never felt so religious in my life than in this blessed moment.   | ||

This is not my bike: ![[image loading]](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2790/4240800175_df44a385db_o.jpg) Lol! ![[image loading]](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4011/4241572074_81094eac49_o.jpg) I feel much better now. 5 stars please. @ alffla: Actually with the time difference being only 1 hour here, I can watch most interesting matches live, and grab the rest off wfbrood / youku (chinese commentators ftw rofl. Fei long = muta? Xiao gou = zergling? Seriously?) | ||

In Warcraft 2 or all of the Age of Empires series, the buildings that provide populations are either called houses or look like houses. In Starcraft, Overlords provides populations, so calling them houses is reasonable. | ||

So now, ultimately there are still good videos but they're buried under the mountains of crap ones. | ||

It sucks for me when I browse English message boards, and this big white screen appears every time someone posts a relevant video. Not so much starcraft. But moreso with my hometown Rockets/Texans/Astros. But ywa, I agree that the whole OMG CHINESE GOVT IS DEVIL BECAUSE NO FACEBOOK NO YOUTUBE thing is waaaaayyyyy overblown. Most Chinese(as in not expats) don't really give a shit. | ||

Also, are people in general mad at the government for blocking stuff, or do they kind of agree with it? Well, I have to say most Chinese even the younger generation are very well tamed(is it the right word?) by the goverment. Most of them just didnt care about all these blocking cos they can use the chinese alternative of these websites. And yes, youtube, facebook are all have their chinese alternative. Imo, foreigners in China are those who suffer the most by these blockage. | ||

Besides, ovies can carry armies, so they do provide housing.  Chinese terms kick ass and funny as hell sometimes. | ||

Well yes, I would assume everyone in China would know what I'm talking about when I say "houses" in regard to Zerg, since they do say it in the commentaries and nobody gets confused by it. Indeed, there is no need to come up with another name as it is already commonly used and understood. What does that have to do with ANYTHING I said? also i must add that your counter example is frankly retarded edit: On January 04 2010 14:16 baubo wrote: Maybe it's because I've played WC2, but the term house seems to be pretty self-explanatory.

Yeah it was just confusing at first because the commentators would be like HE'S GONNA SHOOT DOWN THE HOUSE or w/e and I'd be looking for marines killing a hatch or something lol. Chinese terms are indeed awesome, red ball/white ball/technology ball ftw | ||

If everyone understands you when you use the term, why shouldn't the term stick, regardless of what other things the same term describes? also i must add that your counter example is frankly retarded A retarded example for a retarded point. I'm glad you now see how retarded your logic was.. | ||
