Hey guys...... whats up. This thread/blog is for you to post your gsl watching routines, such as what you eat, how you watch, who you watch it with, etc.

Mine has combined two of my favorite vices... smoking and eating. I prepare a bowl of ramen about 10 minutes before the show consisting of the noddles, cheese, meat, pickles, garlic powder, pepper, salt, red chili lime powder and of course the chicken flavor packet. While the water is boiling I go outside and load a bowl of tobacco...yes i do mean tobacco...into my makeshift bong. After a couple hits I can barely move, but the ramen and gsl is enough motivation to get me to stumble back towards the big tv where I am immobile the rest of the night.

What do you guys do?

I stay up in my room on my laptop and watch.

So hardcore.

I play video games til around 1 AM (GSL starts at 4 AM here) then tell my friends I'm going to bed, then get on TL for anywhere between an hour to 3 hours then decide to play a bit more until the GSL starts end up watching the first 2 matches before fall asleep.

Usually that anyways.

(and here I wait for Taeja)

Unfortunately I live in a share house with crappy internet.

So what I do is I go hit up my gsl loving social circle, hook my laptop into their plasma tv in their lounge room, log into gom, and then enjoy. Sadly, they are all a bunch of loud male chauvanists but they give me free beer and they seem to respect me (based on sc2 skill I think, I always trounce them whenever we play).

I think I have a good GSL routine going
Probes are sooo OP

TeamLiquid needs an upvote/karma system for posts like this.
<@Wikt> so you are one of those nega-fans <@Wikt> that hates the company that makes a game and everything they stand for <@Wikt> but still plays the game <@Wikt> (like roughly 30% of blizzard's player base, maybe much more...)

EU here:
I get a nice sleep, wake up, get a bowl of cereal, check out the GSL schedule to see if there's any foreigners or at least 2 top koreans playing and proceed to watch if the answer is yes.

I like watching GSL on my days off when I am bored.. I usually do it while I eat lunch or dinner. I haven't watched GSL live since the MarineKing vs Nada finals in season 1 or 2, haha.

Just before it starts I make a big bowl of coffee that I replenish between matches. That's my only routine I think, but I never miss it.

Start the laptop downstairs that's attached to our 42' HD tv, eat breakfest and then make some green tea and enjoy.

Due to work and the hour it starts I usually miss it, I am EST so it begins at like 4-5AM and I have to wake up at 630AM for work. I watch VODs if foregnors are there or toss is playing or koreans I care about are playing. I like to watch the friday night/sat morning GSL though. Usually comes on at 1AM EST.
