A little backstory. Back around release time Day9 held an end of the Beta tournament which included myself and other notable players such as IdrA/Tester/HuK/TLO and more. To culiminate it all the ro4 and beyond were casted live at the event held in California at which I was the only pro player attending. At that point in time few people had seen my face or knew what I looked like. To solve that little problem I made the sign you see in the picture above. The phrase itself actually birthed a few weeks earlier at the arcade one night but that story is best told elsewhere.
+ Show Spoiler +

I've wanted to give the sign away for some time now and with the sign currently sharing residence with my comrade in the sunny hills of California and MLG coming to said hills... well. It's a match made in heaven. Really.

There is of course one catch. You have to actually physically be at MLG Anaheim at the end of July or have someone able to receive your prize should you be unable to attend yourself.

Here's the deal. Post here why you specifically want the sign. Use whatever medium you want. Art. Music. Poetry. Video. Make me laugh. Make me cry. Make me want to tear your lungs out. Either way the most convincing submission gets it. Or the funniest. Or the most amusing. I'm not sure what I'm looking for but I'll know it when I see it.

Multiple submissions are okay. I will announce the winner two days before the event on July 27th at 11 59 pm PST. I will then pm this user with the secret pass phrase that they must repeat to me in the convention center in order to claim their prize. Think about that for a moment. Connect the dots. Draw the lines together. Put the peg in the hole. Yea it means what you think it means. I will be carrying that sign around at Anaheim until the winner actually comes up to me and claims it.

May the best man/woman/mouse/squirrel/octopus/desert win.

See you in Anaheim.

Btw qxc, you should totally cast anaheim. Fuck the games, you'd crush everyone anyways. Give the poor people a chance.

I hope you have a posse with cameras following you around so when the person claims their prize we will all be able to partake in this glorious moment in #ESPORTS history.

Man that'd be cool to have...

*Claim sign, give thanks, walk away*
Dude: "OMG are you QXC?"
*Look down at sign*
You: "Yes. Yes I am."
<@Wikt> so you are one of those nega-fans <@Wikt> that hates the company that makes a game and everything they stand for <@Wikt> but still plays the game <@Wikt> (like roughly 30% of blizzard's player base, maybe much more...)

That sign actually functions as ID, you could probably use it to do all kinds of things in qxc's name.

I can already picture the chief of police at the scene of a bank robbery: "Well, there were no security cameras, but we did find this sign."

EDIT: How do i fix the Picture!
_______________________________________________________________
Already shared this with QXC. But i want that sign SO BAD!
Will add a story as well i guess.

So October of last year, IEM NY was happening.
It was held in Comic-con. So pretty much all the crazies are there. And i'm pretty sure some of the pros were weirded out.

Back then, QXC was uber famous for being aggressive all game long with relentless attacks and such. Lots of people surely fell for those type of plays.

I saw QXC talking to this guy with a shaved head / rugged look.
At that moment, all I wanted was a picture with QXC.
It didn't even occured to me that the other guy was Tylet / Nony.

Me: Hey QXC!
QXC: Hey!
Me: Can I take a picture with you?
QXC: Sure!

*hands the camera over to Tyler*

Me: hey. do you mind?
Tyler: Uuhhh. sure.

*Tyler takes picture*

Me: Thanks!
Tyler & QXC: sure.

+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


And that's basically my story.
Oh yeah, i was one of the crazies out there.


+ Show Spoiler +

Sir Tyler, I was pretty sure that other guy was you.
If not, just say so and then i will delete this.

I don't want the sign, but I was there and I think this contest is awesome.

P.S. that other guy in the picture looks to me like a typical Harvey Mudd student.

Well, thats fortunate for you... Due to a very wierd out-of-body experience I WAS THE F***ING SANDWICH.
It seriously hurt when you ate me, so as compensation i demand that sign.

I have proof, a photo taken just seconds before this tragic incident, when i was still happy contemplating the perfect existance of a delicious sandwhich:

Special Tactics:

Bring a bunch of disguises to MLG Anaheim and keep walking up to qxc, saying a random TL meme, and then changing disguise.

It's foolproof.

Is this where I win QXC's prize? I was told by Tim that this was where I recieved QXC's prize, and never once has Tim steered me wrong. Like the time when I was away from the house for a business trip and when I came home I found him on top of my naked wife's unconscious body. Thank the Lord All Mighty that he happened to be there. Although, now that I am reflecting upon the life threatening situation I don't recall how Tim happened to figure out my wife was in danger, or why he was naked for that matter. But, Tim would never yank my chain. Like the time when a burglar broke into the house, knocked me unconscious and raped my wife. I was blacked out the entire time, I even remember I was dreaming about squirrels and little boys, but while my imagination was performing a thrilling reenactment of that 1972 incident, Tim, as he told me, heard "all the racket" and stopped by with his crowbar to see what was going on. Being the hero that he is, he fought off the burglar without ever having to alert the authorities. The authorities told me someone broke in, most likely with a crowbar - similar to Tim's - and then struck me across the back of the head leaving a scar that will forever preside on the back of my skull. You know, now that I think about it Tim and the burglar just happened to have the same crowbar... No, forget all this theory, I have never been a man to accuse another man, especially one who says he is a eunuch and was horrifically castrated at an early age. But luckily for Tim, my wife works in plastic surgery and offers her services for poor Tim every night pro bono. Anyways I really hope I win that prize, and do you have any advice for beating protoss? Some guy named eunuchirapedyourwifetim keeps bming me.

heres my story. when i was about 6, my brother came home with my mother and he had a copy of starcraft in his hand. we only had one computer so me and my brother would have to share. we were both terrible. i remember watching vods of u playing broodwar so long ago. once, i was watching ur stream and it was the last stream before u had to go to college in Spain. i typed on the question "qxc, what do you use to stream". u answered "i use xsplit" i am currently streaming starcraft 2 as much as i can. u also played the song "in the end" by Lincoln park. my favorite song because my brother would always play the legend of zelda. he was killed in iraq. the sign would mean a lot for me. thanks qxc, scan the island

What kind of board is that? Is the writing permanent or erasable? I just want to know if the sign is durable or not.
