That kind of reverence for SC2 players seems just a liiiitle creepy. Just a little bit.

Sorry for my German pragmatism.



edit: I still appreciate experiences written from the heart, so thanks for being open.

I met Catz and Destiny at a local tournament in Miami, FL a few months back and they were definitely very cool and fun guys to chat with. I would hang out with them again, even though I'm an old fart compared to them (and basically everyone else at the tournament).

As a preface, we can all say as people who like Starcraft that it's an enjoyable sport. And I think it's nice that you finally had your urges satisfied. However, I don't know, when I first read this blog post I thought to myself "Wow, this guy is such the creepy/stalker type who admonishes and puts these players on such a pedestal." I find the way that you somehow befriended your way into things a bit alarming also--for example, waiting for hours on the chat and being Catz's sycophant to gain admin status seemed a bit alarming; I don't know, it's comparable to people who want to smell the used panties' of certain celebrities. I'm sure most won't agree with it, because the side of passion always seems appealing over reason or logic. Perhaps try to lessen some of that needy part inside of you, as I don't know where that could go but down.

Calling me his sycophant is not true at all. I didn't suck up to him. I didn't insinuate my way into becoming his mod, or connive my way into being his friend, at all. I never thought I would become mod, or ever talk to him. I just enjoyed his stream, more than any others by far. I was just one of the 2,500 other guys watching him. I wasn't "needy" at all. You make me seem like a stalker. It's no different than if I had been watching Kobe Bryant and venerating his play, how great of a player he is, etc.

Great story man, I'm a Catz fan too, he seems like a chill dude ...

I have this idea (from somewhere) that he's from Central Florida. I just moved from Orlando. He live down that way?

If its not fun I dont want it.

Right on .. yeah that's in Central Florida on the coast.

I spent a lot of time in Orlando DJ'ing. in the clubs. I have this strange feeling that I know Catz irl, or he was in my circles of people down there lol.
