TT1 vs Idra now. As a Protoss player I must root for TT1 obviously. And after my last blog entry, and the responses to it, I can no longer look at Idra the same way. o.@ You people are all crazy. But it's not necessarily a bad thing.
Kiwi vs Huk up after this. Kiwi was my inspiration, so of course I have to cheer for him, but whoever wins I'll be both happy and sad...I really like both Kiwikaki and Huk.
I really need to replenish my yogurt supply. All we have is the strawberry flavour, which I do not like. I only like the vanilla one.
Now is it just me or is the stream not very good quality today? It seemed to be much clearer yesterday. Oh well, it's time to sit back and watch. Possibly my reactions will be blogged later if I'm not sick.
Also who is Nerchio and where did he come from? Knocking Idra out of the IPL! O.O My money is still on White-Ra to win it all though; go Grandpa Toss! Use your special tactics!
Update: KIWI, NUUUUU!!!! What the hell was Backwater Gulch doing in the map pool anyway?!? I call BS!!! That was the first time in this whole tournament that map had popped up. For once in my life I will actually be rooting for Idra. I'm sorry Huk, but I am a rabid Kiwikaki fan and nobody is allowed to beat him while I am watching...lest I lose my mind.
And then of course SeleCT can take the whole thing and represent us in the global, because SeleCT is just awesome like that.
Edit: Forgot the music again!
Currently listening to: "Bad Apple!!" - from Touhou (Vocal version by nomico)

this is an excellent post and i will be following your blog from now on.
nerchio was a no-name BW player until he started winning some weekly cups in SC2. he's team swapped a bit. i can't believe he won vs idra.
what brand of yogurt do you like?

Wow! Thank you very much; I am flattered! I like Yo Crunch. The little candies that you can mix in are what make it for me.

I haven't seen other days of the invitational, but I was surprised by the awesome resolution and quality for the stream.

I kinda like it too, but I'm pretty drunk.
I'm playing through all sorts of old games I enjoyed. Star Wars: Battlefront is currently installing. I guess I should pass out before I play much of it seeing as it's 2:30a. I'm on holiday, but I was planning on going to the beach tomorrow so I'd like to wake up vaguely early. At least enough to get plenty of sunshine.
I just watched the first three episodes of Breaking Bad, on the recommendation of basically everyone. The acting and production was amazing. My only problem with it is the tone, and that's a problem specific to me. I think it's because I grew up without a TV in the home, but watching sequential episodes of a TV show always affects me more than those I watch it with. I watch trailer park boys, I become an idiot; I watch arrested development, my tongue gets snappy; I watch a given human drama, I associate myself with the characters too much. Really, even if it's not a well done show I get affected by it. Strange, huh?
I'd like some yogurt too. I generally used to eat plain with some honey and a splash of cinnamon to make it sexy. The only yogurt I have now is plain, which I bought for curry, but since I haven't made curry that recently it almost certainly needs to be thrown out.
I've been digging SBTRKT's self-titled album a lot recently. My girlfriend turned me onto it while we were driving around to go camping a few weeks ago. I guess I'd compare it most to Burial or something, but nuance in electronic style is something that kind of evades me. To put it another way, I haven't heard SBTRKT called dubstep, but Burial undoubtedly is. If you like Burial or Little Dragon, you should check that album out.

So.. im also watching the NA-games, got thirsty, went downstairs to get some water. Opened the cabinett to get some glas, and BEHOLD, a big cockroach(im atm in philippines) staring at me!
im no maurader, so i want back upstairs thirsty :|

If you don't know who Nerchio is, you really should watch some more European tournies, he's pretty good. It doesn't surprise me at all that he beat IdrA. I personally like him because he used to play random and he has a tendency to complain about balance when he loses a game, which is pretty funny usually. :p
|
Nerchio is baller as hell. I've been a fan since he raped in a small tourney final with all three races. He's great and idra is overrated.
|
Idra is overated and Nerchio has been destroying the online tournament scene in Europe lately.

You can force the stream to be on 2.2mb instead of 500kb. Auto adjust is on by default.

Doesn't matter; it's laggy as hell no matter what I do. This is awful...

Nerchio is so far ahead of everybody he plays in weeklies it's just stupid lol, if you didn't know he used to be/kind of still is a random player. He obv. mains Zerg in tournaments that matter, but for 50 euros? He not only goes random, but he beats his opponent 3-0 with Nuke and mothership rushes.
True story.

i'm excited to see nerchio's future performance.
also, the intermission reel for the live stream is really bad! starcraft 2 trailer/kerrigan's betrayal cinematic loop, and nothing else.
warcraft 2/BW/diablo music please!!! opportunity to promote chris metzen's band?

And I can't even see the stream anymore. It is lagging like hell and I can't see anything...gaaaaaaaaaaaah I give up.

This has wound up to be a really great little tournament.
Impressed with the play from all the players.
Except IdrA's stagnation  that's hard to watch.
