Thanks for another installment

Didn't realize Grrr was such a boss.
In hindsight, being the best non-korean progamer and pioneering like he did, he must be.
I <3 the internet, I <3 you

Did you write this story because you were the Grrrrr` to someone's rekrul? or just bored =p


LOL


You know it's funny you say that. Back in high school i was fascinated with Starcraft and the whole scene. I believe it was around 03' when I had saw that rekrul had qualified for wcg. Never having talked to any pros, I wasn't sure if I should tell him grats or not. Surely he shouldn't be bothered reading my pitiful fan boy ra ra's...

I decided to just send a short pm on wgtour. "congrats on your win, gl with the future games".
One hour later in my inbox "thanks, I will do my best "

It's been like 8 years and I haven't forgot how it made me feel. Great blog 5/5

Rek,

Great read. And hi from CyRaX since we haven't spoken in like 6 years or so. Oh how things change, the gaming scene, etc.

Hasn't some foreigner besides grrr lately became more successful as a progamer? I'd be shocked to hear someone still hasn't.

What I would know is that if the manager had a bad day and didn't gave them free stuff, what would have happened? :D

Wow, I didn't realise the "your staff have been harassing us and being disrespectful, now we want free stuff!" would go down so well...

Great read though, 7/5
