Hello !
I am here today, alongside my sister, to bring you something extra special. Long have we wondered “Who is the hottest Sc2 progamer?” with no way of solving the question. There are a number of problems that consistently come up. For one, most of us are male! Similarly, many of us are straight! Finally, we all have many inherent biases that cloud our judgement. Acting in tandem, these issues prevent us from reaching an answer to what is quite certainly the biggest and most pressing concern that faces our community.
That is why I have enlisted the help of my sister. She is 20 years old and autistic. You know how often times people with disabilities get really into certain things? For her, its looking at people, specifically cute guys. Throughout high school, whenever a new yearbook came out, she carefully examined the thing for the entire year. Before long, she would know every instance of a person’s appearance in the book. She would have her favourites, who she would then talk to sometimes, and the people she liked less. My point with all this? She is the absolute foremost authority on the subject of how good looking someone is that I could possibly find. She is entirely without bullshit and entirely without biases of the players.
I have selected 32 players, largely the first players I could think of, and organized them (randomly) into 4 groups of 8. The people will face off against each other in the style of MSL or GSL groups, only instead of a game, I will show a picture of each of them to the judge (aka my sister) and the one deemed hotter will get the win. Top 2 from each group will advance into the round of 16 where they will be seeded into a single elimination bracket. After several rounds of play, a winner will be crowned! For the grand finals, I’m hoping to get a larger vote going to determine the champion.
Because I know this will be asked: Yes this is serious in that its actually happening. No its not serious in that I am indeed dicking around and this has no real point. I just know my sister will enjoy it and that we as a community will get to see something kinda cool, if really odd.
Also special announcement! This will be the first “Sc2 Tournament” that will feature the famed and feared Bisu and Jaedong! How will they compete with the mass of Sc2 players? We’ll just have to wait and see. On the same note, I totally cheated and included Temp0, the rapper guy. Why? If I’m being honest, I wanted to have a black guy involved and there are no black pros as far as I know. Temp0 is close enough!
The first 4 groups’ results will be showed this Friday (October 14th).
Without further adieu, these are the groups! They’re entirely 100% random, even though one of them might not like it (you’ll know it when you see it, I’m sure).
Group A: Bisu, Day[9], Destiny, Hasuobs
Group B: Boxer, Jaedong, Gretorp, Marineking
Group C: Hero, Incontrol, Catz, Dimaga
Group D: Huk, Idra, LzGamer, MC
Group E: MMA, QXC, Select, Naniwa
Group F: Sjow, Ret, Whitera, Morrow
Group G: Jinro, Tempo NaDa, Tasteless, Sase
Group H: Stephano, Tyler, Thorzain, Strelok
Now onto the polls! Edit: Prediction polls. No votes will matter until grand finals, even then the votes will be from random girls from my school and such.

On permission of my sister, here is what she looks like so you know she’s not some terrible monster from under a bridge judging people on their looks. Funny enough she actually has her yearbook in the shot.

Look forward to the first 4 groups on Friday!

so you're saying she's a pervert? you should talk nicely about her!
also, too many polls
|
haha this sounds like what they do on gamefaqs except... yeah...
i can just predict so much bias for bisu :<
hopefully there will be some more TL_hero love??

Bisu's gonna show that BW handsomeness does in fact transfer to SC2.
Oh my God when did I become a Bisu fan

kinda hard without pics. or at least links to their TLPD entry. but if boxer or bisu doesn't win, i will /facepalm
|
as much as it aches my heart to say this, i feel a massive upset incoming with bisu getting knocked out in the first round.
|
Bisu ez. Day9 fans don't bother checking the blog section!
|
|
|
MMA is beating select..wuuuuuuuuuuuuuut
Anyways Bisu has this tourney EZ he da most handsome, now if only his good looks could win him an OSL hahaha
|
Voted Day9 over Bisu just to throw a wrench into the tourney. Also, vote for Thorzain!
|
I'm really angry that NaDa isn't in the polls.
|
nada isn't in the poll because it's obvious he's the best looking, this is just a contest for 2nd place
|
Trust that I'm very ashamed for forgetting Nada !

Even if you don't include him, he'll still win. That's how godly he is.

No, not in this field IMHO.
If she has an Asian preference either way, Bisu has this easy. If not, I'm predicting a dark horse Ret/Tyler win in all this.

Bisu auto-wins this SC2 tournament and he doesn't even belong in the player pool lol.

Hate to do a Stephen Colbert impression here but she pretty much doesn't see race. Still though, I only know that for black people, there's really not a ton of asian people that went to our high school. We'll see !

OH MY GOD!!!
"Group of Death" and "Best SC2 Skilled Group" are both currently being led by group B.
Correlation between looks and sc2 ability!?!?!

Tourney will be imba unless you get pics of all the people at the same age and angles.

I grabbed about 5 pictures of each player (some less flattering than others) and one will be selected randomly for any given match. I suppose this does add some element of luck but the pictures were grabbed pretty randomly from google images so hotter player = more likely a given picture is flattering = more likely to win. Though I have to say Day9 got a wee bit shafted from all the pictures of him doing funny faces and shit.
And I pretty much expected 70% of the replies to be "wtf," but TL surprised me. I'm sure most people thought it though. : )
Edit: And yeah for the results, I'll show which picture was used in the match.

You must be joking with the amount of nada's body, kpop thread, progamers faces on girls, and other homosexually charged threads on TL.
also just the fact that sexy and cute are terms to describe playstyle.

Oh nonono thats how I knew I probably wouldnt get laughed off the site and have to retire from the internet. As for number of "wtf u fag"s I could get, it just really depends on who shows up to the thread. :D

I felt pretty uncomfortable comparing so many males like that =X
as long as nobody saw me do it..

There wasnt nada. This poll is invalid.

How is SeleCT losing to anyone?? You guys are crazy. He is one of the most beautiful humans I have ever seen

Yeah I actually thought he'd be faring better as well. I feel like hes still pretty likely to make it out of his group though.

MMA better win, dat cutie

Group A: Protoss
Group B: no P option
Group C: Protoss
Group D: Protoss
Group F: Protoss
Group G: Protoss
Group H: Protoss
Only exception is group E, but Naniwa is like Stork pre-2007, he has good-looks-potential.

hahahha this is so awesome, i am definitely looking forward to the results.
But seriously no Nada? The hell is wrong with you.

Bisu vs. MMA for finals. I called it!

Bisu will take this easily.

By popular demand, NaDa will be replacing Temp0 in group G. It wasn't entirely fair for me to include him in the first place and it is clear that the absence of Nada would render the results pretty much worthless.
In other news, the results for groups A through D are in, and will be posted tomorrow as promised!

That is kinda surprising, I think that Nada should be like the final boss or something.
Well I felt pretty uncomfortable answering those polls...

Unfair. NaDa vs the winner of this should have been the comparison.

Why no Nada?! You add Beeshit but no Dinotoss Stork or FBH!?

Nah if he deserves to be the final boss, he'll make it there through the bracket.
And you never know, I will say as a teaser that there is at least one pretty huge upset somewhere in the first 4 groups !

I guess its SC2 players, but that doesn't make sense that dong and Bisu are in there then.
they do transcend some barriers tho.

Uh maybe, but this isn't a GSL, so Nestea wouldn't participate anyways.
