Two days ago (due to my year long break from bw) I have found a jewel in the depth of teamliquid blogs. This jewel is called Pro Gaming tales, and I have to say I was astonished by the quality of it. Boonbag took me to the romantic stages of progaming that will never come back, no matter how marvellous game will be released.

I enjoyed his writing more than any popular reading before, and once I started reading I have finished all his entries almost at once, not noticing the time went to 2am in the morning, while I was supposed to go to work four hours later.

He tells the story of progaming in the making, the story of the game that started it. The unbelieveable story of those pre 1.8 patch Starcraft heroes, mystical and unique and how they lived their lives.


The sad thing is I believe its far, very far from end and the Progaming tales number 8 with Cezanne and Yaeyong and their trip to a LAN party has drawn me to the blog even more. And BOONBAG SEEMS TO BE LOST!

Where are you Boonbag? Your story is like a wonderfull romantic novel, like a dream that every one of us would like to live, but knows he will never do so.


PLEASE COME BACK! Please give me more, give us all more to dream about.

It's a bit sad, but it seems like he left after some irrelevant dispute with incontrol. I'm sure you can dig it up easily if you try.
I'm taking whatever coverage I can get, because frankly, I'm busy working on this million dollar deal at my job. Early retirement is a good thing brotha man. - MessengerASL

He still lurks I'd guess, since he posted in this thread:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=76521&currentpage=5#84

This is where he said he wasn't going to come here anymore:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=71680&currentpage=12#228 (and read earlier in the thread for his arguments)

Reading InControl's posts in that thread made me so irritated... he's such a little faggot 10 year old.

imagine TL had a hamburger bar in France. Boonbag comes, gets sick after 2 burgers and quits all forums, his great blog. Same situation, such a shame.
