Well something that happens alot is people say "Masters" or "Grandmasters" leagues when it is just 'Master' or "Grand Master". Stop putting the s on the end. It sounds like a last name: Ken Masters. It also sounds stupid and noobish. http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=132394 PS- it's Idd-ruh and Knew-Knee.   | ||

It actually is what I said, find an instance where Nony himself says it. I heard him say it earlier tonight on SOTG On December 23 2013 14:14 flamewheel wrote: Phonetically people who say the so-called 'Masters League are correct', as "Masters' League" refers to a league for (or of) masters. That would be Master's or Masters' League then right? More often then not though, people will be just saying stuff like "I got into Masters" or "Masters players don't do that" type of stuff. Even if we were to take the possessive line, how come no one is then saying Diamond's, or Bronzes'. It's wrong. It would however be correct to omit 'players', and say; "Masters don't do that." | ||

For example, they might say the sentence: "This is a perfect anti-timing for Taeja to hit! Taeja has 2/2 and his opponent has 1/1! A wonderful anti-timing!" But what they really mean to say is that it's a TIMING. Not an ANTI-TIMING. Just a plain ol' regular TIMING. Taeja has the TIMING to attack at 2/2 vs. his opponent's 1/1. An ANTI-TIMING would be if Taeja were 1/1 attacking his opponent's 2/2 just 20 seconds before his own 2/2 would finish. That would be an anti-timing because it's hurting Taeja to attack when he's attacking, so it's bad. When expressing that an attack someone is making is good, then it's just a TIMING. This is irritating me more and more as its use becomes more mainstream in all these casts I see. | ||

Well,actually that's not what anti-timing means, an anti timing is what chill describes as "counter production timing" here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=65645 so while the example you quoted is definitely a normal timing,an anti timing is still a good thing toi have :D (and not a mistake) | ||
