Really want to go to a MLG, but living in the UK and being 15, it's hard. Awesome blog.

Glad to see you guys had a good time, i had no idea who dr.lemur was so i already anticipated getting 6/7/8 pool all-ined both games... for some reason i still decided to 15 hatch that first game which led to a bit of stress lol.

Even when your son goes through that awful stage of hating everything his parents do or say, that kid is still going to tell his nerdy friends how awesome his dad is.

Great blog.

really nice blog, i hope to share w/e passion my kids have with life as well. its really nice that your not such a stereotypical parent and can bond with your kid over something that usually has a pretty negative stigma


Thanks, Huk. Pro gamers, like you, playing with passion are one way the 'stigma' associated with gaming changes. I try to do my own small part by talking to the other parents to see who else games -- and I'll tell you it's already shifting. I run into lots of parents who want to tell me about their gaming. Even though it's usually things like Plants vs Zombies, if they like playing anything, they are very curious when I tell them about esports and Starcraft.

I'm sure the pro gamers realize this, but this is a major reason why issues of language and really bad manner are a big deal. You can argue all day about how bad a specific word or epithet is, but if that kind of language is being thrown around, you are going to have real trouble getting parents to get involved with their kids' gaming.

But it would be easy for anybody to be a supportive parent at MLG, I think. The fans and players are excited, enthusiastic but also polite -- and there is a lot of camaraderie.


Thank you for this amazing blog post and enlightening point of view of eSports. I never thought about the bm/language issue from the perspective of adults who aren't familiar with competitive gaming but are interested like parents other than yourself.
