I think the next MLG needs a Day[9] cam so we catch all the goofy stuff.

Thanks for the story!

Thank you Milkis for the write up. Very informative and clarifies a lot of things.

One small thing. IMHO when you translate you make it sound more bm than it really is. I don't know if you're trying to create tension or hype by doing so, or if it's a mistake. Regardless, you hold a lot of power as a translator and you've earned that title with hard work. Best of luck in everything you do. Congrats on graduation.


The thing about translating anything from Korean to English, you lose the layer of formality that Koreans have... the only way to capture that is to use the passive tense and it takes a lot of work to make the passive tense sound properly to still have it capture the original meaning. I have the same trouble when I translate stuff from KR -> EN even when it's written because of that so since I was interpreting I just did everything raw, which can give that impression, I think.

If you have suggestions though I'd love to hear it since it is something i've been trying to deal with for a while

That was really cool of you to step up like that btw. I thought you handled everything really professionally and knowing you are "from the community" makes it even better.

I really liked the part where you watched the TSL2 with them

I find that using the passive tense is the most effective way. I think you did a great job.. you can't really help some of the phrases sounding more BM..such is the nature of translations. (I guess unless you wanted to enroll in some kind of translation course.)

A note about MC, I remember seeing the guy on some show on GOM with the female GSL caster, and he commented on how he puts on a sort of arrogant persona to create a bit of hype and make the games more interesting (loosely paraphrasing - it's been a while since I've actually seen the show). He might seem a bit over the top compared to the other Korean pros, but I don't think he's actually like that in person, as Milkis seems to be stating. Anyway! Great job - looking forward to the next one

The more interviews I read about MC and his egotistic out look on other players(specifically non-Koreans) the more I want to punch that lil' shit in the mouth. Every other Korean spoken with in interviews or with other players have been completely manner, MC shows up and its a BM shit show.


Such ignorance. Props to Milkis for clearing up MC's personality (even though anyone with any observational abilities whatsoever could see that MC does what he does for show and that he's actually a nice guy). Maybe you should get punched in the mouth instead. So damn tired of these uninformed judgments of MC.

Thank you Milkis for this very interesting read. I loved the story about MMA/MC/Losira going out to eat.

Any particular reason those three were always hanging out and Moon and July were doing their own thing? Other than them having different people there helping them while Milkis was generally with the 3 who ended up being finalists (karma? no pressure ).

You should totally use one interview and totally troll all the foreigners by making up super bm answers
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

I would love to see a off race tournament/showmatch from MC Losira, Tyler. I'd be willing to put 50 dollars to the prize pool.
