In other news, it only takes me 5 minutes (down from 30) to figure out what tool I'm looking for to do what I need. Gimp amateurs unite.

The coach asks what Jaedong is going to do in ZvT, and he responds with a SCII strat and then July invites him to play SCII and then there's a picture of MVP? What? | ||

Of course, you should never explain a joke. | ||

They don't want to think about the possibility Jaedong will stop playing Broodwar no matter how unlikely it is. Nah, it's perfectly fine. It's not funny, but If one honestly has a serious issue with a joke even implying that their favourite player is going to switch, I'd advise that person to step back, take a deep breath and chill out. | ||

I didn't get the joke at all. Try making it a bit more obvious to people who haven't followed SC2 for a long time. Yeah, I had NO clue what was going on. Why would the Oz coach be asking about SC2 strats if Oz isn't even an SC2 team? It would have made sense if you approached the concept differently, I think. | ||

This is meant for those that have read the thread (Hwaseung Oz is switching to SC2). Yeah ghosts would probably be a good missing link for the guys that didn't get it. Yet, I didn't want to carry it out too far, putting an in-game pic instead of player's faces. Think it'd be better with a mad/depressed July (His full hive tech options destroyed by MVP) to contrast the happy one of MVP. NesTea/MVP was the second famous example of mass ghosts against Zerg lategame (For those following SC2 and not just BW). Live and learn =). | ||

What I don't get is how it's "in poor taste", how can anyone possibly get offended over something like this is beyond me. | ||

They have a point, in that I don't know the full history between July and Jaedong (and so cannot seek to avoid the BW comparison, as I talk about July's SC2 experience) I got it but the execution was kind of poor, since it's referencing one specific game between July and MVP. What I don't get is how it's "in poor taste", how can anyone possibly get offended over something like this is beyond me. First attempt at doing a joke cartoon using GIMP. I hope to do better if I ever do a second project with the photoshop clone. | ||

First tile "Now that we're playing SC2, have any thoughts on ZvT" or something like that. Now people know that it's totally an SC2 joke and not some hybrid BW/SC2 joke. I just saw the BW Coach and assumed it was BW Jaedong. :p I still stand behind my original comment though, I think had it just been tweaked to be a little more clear, it would have been a lot better. I get it now, though. :p | ||
