GomTV announces additional details about GSL in 2011
Today, GomTV announced additional details for GSL in regards to the Code S tournament. GomTV believes the system they had in place was far too simple for the fans to understand and has completely revamped the Code S tournament in order to properly confuse the fans.
Lim Yo Grack, a GomTV spokesperson, explained, “We originally intended to make sure that everyone was totally clueless on how the system worked, but inadvertently made it too simple. We were greatly disappointed when those darn TeamLiquid.net members understood it and actually made graphics to help those that didn't.” Lim Yo Grack also added, “Those responsible for the old system have been sacked.”
GomTV hopes to thoroughly confuse even the smartest TeamLiquid.net member, Hot_Bid, with their new system.+ Show Spoiler +Blatant Admin pandering!!! Also props for the extended series joke in my last blog post (check comments)

No one knows what the fabled Carrier unit looks like
GomTV released a graphic outlining the paths the players must take with just a few of the challenges included:

Another GomTV spokesperson, Jang Chin Chul, remarked on the new system, “We at GomTV believe we have finally created a system that will confuse everyone. Honestly, we don't have a fucking idea how it works, either.” GomTV also wanted to maintain as many potential team kills as possible, as well as the potential foreigner kill between EGIdrA and LiquidJinro. “We like to pretend we want foreigners to do participate in GSL, but really we want them to go back to Gorillaland or Hogwarts or wherever they came from,” said Jang Chin Chul.
Prominent TeamLiquid.net community member, CuntPickle666, had this to say about the new system, “I have no fucking clue what's going on. Chickens? Al Gore? And what the fuck is this Carrier unit? I've never seen anyone make it.”
As of the time of this article's posting, no one has quite cracked the system. Countless nerds are currently spending numerous hours working on it, and hope to have a full explanation shortly. Just as soon as they figure out what the hell the “Carrier” unit is.
+ Show Spoiler [Note from the Editor] +I have a few ideas for future articles, and will try to put these up once or twice a week, so that maybe I can keep this going for a while. However, I'm lazy, so if you have a good idea or want to submit an article, feel free to PM me so I can steal it without giving you credit + Show Spoiler +Follow my blog or look for the [IA] tag in the future.

Enjoying these. Hope more come in the future.

Hahahahahah. Love the "diagram," too.
|
I really loved the graphic! One of the funniest things I've seen in a long time!
(And it so hilariously resembles some of the graphic charts drawn for the actual system )
|
Wow!
They took all my suggestions!
|

|
|
|
For some reason the graph reminds me of the DC metro map. o_O
A+++ article though!

But they really should have used the Seoul subway for maximum applicability and confusion.

5/5! Nice read, thank you.
|
Hah. Brilliant! Unfortunately, I already know what a carrier looks like because of HongUn. That bastard.
|
This is going to be the best Mornington Crescent tournament ever.
|
That was great! Looks like a subway map lol.

I started to use the seoul subway map, but after erasing a few of the stops, I decided it was going to take way too much effort for this blog and found a subway map without labels 
|
So good! The subway map works perfectly xD
|
hahah funny stuff
|
Well played sir, well played.
|
Jang Chin Chul, brilliant hahaha
|
I love the "a" key removed. No marines! Ever! It's also great how boxer cuts a wider path than everyone else. Pure comedy.
|
So I guess whenever I get to London I'll have to ask people where the "LiquidJinro Line" is? Seeing as it is good to know these things as tourist and all.
Thanks for the map b^_^d
|
I'm sorry, but whoever has to interview DAVIT definitely has the hardest road to winning.
|
Is this Tokyo's subway map?
edit: I'm dumb XD

:D
great for causing smiles in the morning x3
|
I love you, have mah babies.
|
Japanese subway system looks so simple now.
|
|
|
So what happens if you end up going into the gracken pit but you've already played the gracken? Is it an extended series where it becomes a best of 50 where you have to play with just a mouse down 22 games?
|
I'm still waiting for the confusing part.
?
.
|
It looks like a subway map @@
|
Loved the marineking bit.
|
hahaha this is gold, keep it up!
|
this was a good laugh i hope more are posted.
|
my liquibet is not on whoever has to come through "reading thround the sc2 bnet forums withouth shooting themselves". Near impossible for anyone with a shred of intelligence
|
This is a real blog post :D
|
Excellent post. The graph just killed me xD
|
That was amazing The gracken was hilarious, as was pretty much the whole thing. Also at first I thought the chart was an airport. Close enough.
Well done sir.
|
5/5 great read. Laughed a bunch at the "we don't even understand it our self" part.
|
|
|
jesus christ ! hilarious bro...nice work!
|
Love seeing it say Play with the "A" key removed for MarineKing.Prime....no more marines anymore unless he changes the hotkey
|
Haha really funny, thanks for making!

C'mon, I'm from California and the underground map isn't THAT confusing, you should've done the east LA interchange.
|
Hip-hip hooray for Starcraft's Onion News Network!
|
Zenith is on the to the gracken pit it seems.
|
The new system involves a series of challenges and games involving motorcycle stunts, chickens, nuclear physics, Japanese game shows, former US Vice President Al Gore, and making some unheard of Starcraft 2 unit called the “Carrier.”
FINALLY
|
That was brilliant, I especially loved the quotes towards the end.
|
on IdrA's stream the other night at the beginning of a game his opponent goes "hi grack" IdrA starts to rage and gets pwned. do all the koreans just laugh at him?
|
So why is the Gracken Pit entrance on the other side of the river where the Gracken is?
Also I dont get the Interview DAVIT thing. I know he forfeit the Code A matches but...
|
ㅋㅋㅋ MarineKingPrime's first stage is "play with 'a' key removed"
I love it...this is actually easier to understand
|
I'm gonna be honest, the details, I don't care much for, I just want pro games, I want tastosis again, I crave it...
|
|
|
Ahahahahaha... Still, this makes more sense than it ever has for me.
|
Hilarious post! Love reading this.
|
Lol i love the jpeg! The Gracken Pit is horrifying.
|
This code S tournament looks great. I can't wait!
|
This is hilarious, I laughed until my girlfriend asked me what was so funny, which prompted an explaining about the explaining of the inexplicable speech, which I don't think went down as well as I had hoped.
|
That was a riot.
I loved the "quotes" from the GSL people. And the subway map was pure awesome.
