Wow, it's already been over a thousand days since I've joined TL. It's been a really long time, and it just flew past so fast. Usually things seem to go by faster when you enjoy it, I guess it's true.

I haven't written a serious blog in a long time, and I think tonight is the time I get to write one more. Tomorrow, in 14 hours, I'm undergoing the mandatory conscription in Singapore. As a second-generation permanent resident of Singapore (parents being the first generation), I have to go through it. I won't be out for some time. I'm just going to miss you guys.

I'll miss bitching about missing BW and its glory days. Thank you all BW fans and writers who put up amazing work in local, foreign and korean BW coverage consistently, getting things done one way or another. Kiante, riptide, flamewheel, plexa, csheep, disciple, kiett, GTR, wax, CA, ]343[, HP, Hyde, Mustaju, 2pac, SirJolt and so many more. I can't possibly name all but thank you guys.

I'll also miss my new BW - Dota 2 and the glorious rage and victories we've endured together, all over teamspeak (with random chats with non-Dota 2 players too!) Kiett, hotbid, torte, kiante, flamewheel, tec, MrHoon, Zeehar, Cube, firebolt, rubdrub, paper, mizu and... maybe missed out one or two. <3 you guys for making my dota games so much more fun than solo queueing, despite our outnumbered loss:win ratio. Also to TheYango, NB and DoNotDisturb, whom I've not played with but had nice conversations on the dota 2 forums here on TL. (Big shoutout to Tobi, though he probably won't see this )

I'll also miss some of the most awesomest people on TL the planet, people like ilikestarcraft (i hope you guys still remember him lol), harem, boesthius and smix. <3

And I'll miss everyone else, no matter how small or big you think your presence may be on TL. You guys complete this community, this family. TL is an amazing community, it's probably the only place where you can organise a huge meeting with strangers united by one passion and just have a great time together. I fulfilled one of my dreams of watching the Proleague grand finals live (and a SKT grand finals no less) with so many TLers (endy, zeehar, scarecrow, atrioc etc! miss you guys!) while I was in Korea. I actually want to blog about my stay in Korea, but I guess that'll have to wait to another time.

So until then, I bid farewell and hope to return once again soon.

I leave with this song, a song by an indie composer going by the name of "Kiss Me Joy". Vocals are done by Kim Ji Min.


+ Show Spoiler +
I wanted to post the lyrics to this song because I think they're really powerful and meaningful. Goes perfectly with the song, but I don't have time for it because I still need to pack for tomorrow. Sorry guys Maybe one day I'll list some of my favourite korean non-kpop songs and post lyrics with them.


Also, I'll leave my stream on for some korean indie groups' music.

http://twitch.tv/konadora

Enjoy your day, ladies and gentlemen.

You will be missed, thanks for everything
Good luck Kona <3
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

IS THIS PERSONAL REVENGE for not including you in my blog? T_T

Hope the great memories of TL and SCBW and all that's good with eSports will keep you strong during the hard times.

Good luck in your future endeavors! Thanks for the translations during the BW era!
Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

I don't know who you are, or where you've been, but what I do know is that you have a special set of skills, skills you've developed over a lasting career. Skills that make this website glorious for people like me. If you leave now you will be sorely missed, we will miss you, we will think about you, and we will find you.
