I wrote a new Impulse Gamer article about HotS! Thought it would be a great way to get people into StarCraft who previously thought the game wasn't for them! I'm very happy with the game and changes thusfar, and I'm just falling more and more in love with StarCraft II as time progresses! Here is the article: Why You Should Be Playing StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm vis Impulse Gamer NOTE: Some background images may be NSFW!    | ||

At the very least, paste a NSFW tag? I'm in a LAN with double digits of good friends and they're giving me the "eye" right now. | ||

I usually put that in the blog post when it's from Impulse Gamer for that reason. My section is mine, therefore it is themed as a model who games, which means the pics will be sexy, but the content and the words on the page are what make people read. The sexy pictures are just the theme, hook, and an added plus. | ||

You should do more in the SC2 community, I'm sure more of the major tournaments would LOVE to have you as their floor announcer or hell you could even take up guest commentating roles. Something to consider. We can hope right? | ||

but the content is actually quite nice. I know a few people gonna play HotS because multiplayer mode has more casual friendly features now, with the training mode and the against AI mode. thought it should be mentioned, too many people don't even try the multiplayer mode, missing at least half the fun that SC2 offers! | ||

Husky and DJWheat are both lower level players but their commentary is still good. I think TB is like Gold or Plat as well. Tara would make an awesome color commentator because she DOES know the game, maybe not as well as Apollo or Artosis but she does know it well enough to give a different perspective on what's going on. | ||

NOTE: Some background images may be NSFW! Note: Here's a reason you should come to this site. lol. You're a porn star. I just finished the campaign. It was easy and good. Reminded me of the founding of durotar bonus campaign from WC3. I played on hard mode though. I didn't like the regular WC3 campaign because normal felt like it was mocking me, and hard forced me to just mass turrets all game. Kerrigan is really fun to play too. I really hope the SC2 ums get better. | ||

Something to consider. We can hope right? Yeah! I am working on it! My main focus is to get better at my own gameplay and understanding before I delve into the casting seriously. I'm also working on my articulation and speech, which is made possible by streaming. The reason I am not taking jobs now or casting replays as much is because I don't want it to appear that I feel entitled to hold these jobs just because of my looks or my gender, career, novelty, etc.. I want to actually know my shit!  At very least I would love to be a regular host for some major tournament down the road. I think I am a shoe-in for that kind of thing already. Just give me a bit more time to establish my legitimacy in the community and prove to coordinators that I can create serious content and not just whip my tits out the first chance I get in front of a crowd. | ||

Thank you! I must have a very high tolerance for sexuality since I am baffled when people call what I do "porn". Sure, it can be used as porn, but so can anything. That's why people make Hentai based on Lois Griffin! Every piece on entertainment has a hook--something that can draw in an audience before the traffic is already there. Mine is that I am a model that likes games. Dig a centimeter into that description and it is apparent that I am just like everyone else who spends way too much time playing the games they love. I would be a great representative for gaming and eSports. Not only that, but I represent sexual liberation and being able to laugh at one's self. | ||

Thank you! *Blush* I don't know the game enough yet IMO, but that's just my prerogative. I want my casters to know the game, even if their role is that of a play-by-play entertainer. Getting a job as a caster now would just look pretentious, like I am not working for it. I want to show that I care enough to actually fucking play and get better. | ||

Not totally flaming, but cmon now. "Discreet Billing" woohoo! NSFW full: + Show Spoiler + Jesus Christ what is wrong with my site on your browser!? Running Internet Explorer or something sub-par? Totally not flaming!  The site is set up by a company that does both nude and non-nude model sites. I am looking for a company to do something more tuned toward what I want, but I don't think it's too far-fetched to pay for a fan site. If you want to support me and like to see content or read my diaries, it's a great place to do so. Very similar to anyone taking donations or asking for some kind of subscription fee via TwitchTV. No one is making you pay or donate, it's just something nice someone can do for a model they admire, and they get content and fun stuff for doing so. I define porn by blatant sexual acts meant ONLY for masturbatory use. I don't even consider Playboy porn. If it has some kind of vision or artistic content, or the subject is not engaging in sexual activity, it's not porn. Back on topic, please. ^^ | ||

As for getting back on topic, it's pretty clear at the end of the article what the topic is about: You and getting the folks who read this forum to masturbate to you and hopefully subscribe/support you monetarily. You are pretty attractive, airbrushed and augmented and all, but don't pretend to be here not alluding to "play SC2 and you can play with these!". | ||

However your posts in this thread, and articles on your website have convinced me otherwise and as little as it may matter to you, you have earned my respect It means a lot to me, actually! It's an amazing feeling to be accepted in a community I love, or to change people's minds about me in the face of the often true nagging stereotype posed against me. You rock! | ||
