If you have not read the blog in question, you can find it here.

When writing that blog I knew that I would come off looking like an IdrA fanboy. The truth is, it is always quite a spectacle to see him play, and I mean his actual play, not his BM. It's upsetting that about 70 of the 79 comments were responding to the BM portion of the blog, but I guess that's the risk you take when you're commenting on someone so well known in a way that people call deviant.

I'm glad that I started my series with IdrA, because it was guaranteed to bring about results. It is safe to say that most players on TL.net agree he should gg more often. But, Greg will be Greg, and I would never ask him to change for my sake.

I had plenty of good ideas for people to blog about next, so I decided to ask for your input. Remember, the next blog will be better than the first. I will put research into it, and objectify my opinions.
Poll: Who should be the next target?

Sean "Day[9]" Plott (25)

Your vote: Who should be the next target?

(Vote): Geoff "EG.iNControl" Robinson
(Vote): Sean "Day[9]" Plott

(Vote): Self introductory blog



Thanks everyone.
Jesse "Chargelot" Spillane

Edit: Losers of the poll will come back for the next poll.

I vote for Sean, and suggest Lim Yo-Hwan for the next

It would be a good tribute to Boxer. A sort of apology for my horrible misconception in the pre-edit version of my first blog. I may be using a vote to decide each time, so I'll include him in the next poll.

I voted for djWheat just because I'm a lot more familar with Day9 and iNControl, where as I don't really know anything about djWheat. Would be interesting to learn some things about him. I think a self blog would be good too but imo it would be good to keep it seperate from your series about professional gamers.
Nothing to it but to do it.

Definitely true on all points. I should have made an introduction to the blog that had my intro in it too. I'll have to wait and see if my blog becomes popular before I can introduce myself, I guess.

I would throw my wallet at them to get at that type of thing.

I have more votes than djWHEAT. Instant success in life.

Edit: waiting to see if I can't get an interview with Sean. Nothing too big, 4-5 questions. But he's a busy man. Crossing my fingers.
