Hahaha - as much as Youngho twitches and seems a tad eccentric he actually appears a lot more confident to me at events. He's talking more often with the other members of the team, he's assured with his fans and the addition of Chansoo to the team seems to have helped him strengthen his friendships. As for Khan - it was a strange thing really. I think the fact that I became a Khan fan purely by chance (the sign for Stork on the spur of the moment.) contributed to the down turn in my massive commitment to them as a team. I was elated when they won the PL finals, but for me that marked a turning point where I decided to branch out and stop narrowing my focus to a single team. It was then that I noticed the massive diversity of players, personalities, styles and attitudes that make up the SC community in Seoul. I was originally an OGN fan (from seeing KOR Real Story.) so going back to OGN felt like returning to my roots so to speak. I was also so impressed by the changes in T1 that it was hard not to become a fan of their revitalised image and the fact that they're just so much fun to photograph. Blame Backho, ForGG and Jaedong for the Hwaseung thing - I really adjusted my ideas about JD after meeting him for the first time properly. | ||

It varies massively. There is some truth in the idea of girls who attend solely because they enjoy the looks of some of the players (Bisu is a prime example as is Hwasin.) However, I know many, many more girls who spend the fan meetings asking technical questions (My friend Hyejin from the T1 fans goes to Thezerg/Yeongchul's fan meets with me regularly and she's always asking him about his recent games/plans for the future.) There are also many girls who discuss the matches online via Daum Cafes and lots of the Cyworld comments for the gamers' homepages are asking about their plays. It really is an individual element of being an esports fan, but I'd say the vast majority of female SC fans are pretty knowledgable about both the games and the players themselves - they're also very devoted and in many cases welcoming. | ||

That depends upon what kind of experience you're looking for: If you want to see a lot of players interacting in one space and you'd like the chance to meet them afterwards for photos/autographs etc in a more casual setting: PL/WL. If you want to see some often intense one-on-one plays in a more serious setting: OSL/MSL. If you want to sit in the dark in a mall in the middle of nowhere: LOOX. If you want to see the most amount of esports fans you will ever see in one space, to witness teams/individual players really battling it out and to possibly see Wondergirls or Girls Generation: PL/OSL/MSL Finals. For me personally - nothing beats a final. The atmosphere is so unique, the venues are always different and everyone seems to be upon high alert in terms of energy and enthusiasm. | ||

My laptop's power supply died earlier this month so I had to get it reformated - I will probably bow to the whims of the forum and take more booth girl photos when the chance arises. Currently I don't attend OSL though (the only event with boothgirls related to SC.) because there is nothing except booth shots to do there and I need at least one night a week off ;_; | ||

Recently the ratio is about the same TBH - some teams have more female fans (OZ/Sparkyz/eSTRO.) but there are a lot of guys sometimes including military and older people. The age range varies wildly from kids to seniors (although not too often.) The camera men do tend to favour filming couples and girls holding signs though. | ||

1) Hows the private lives of the progamers? Ask Rekrul. 2) How much time do they get off? That varies depending upon team. I know as a general rule A-team players get a significant amount more time off than B-teamers. 3) How do they interact with the outside world? That again depends upon the individual. 4) Can they take breaks anytime they want as long as they put up results? No - as far as I'm aware all of them are set into a proper schedule and have set breaks. 5) Does stork and fbh rly hav gfs? are they hot? pics? Yes (I've seen both.) don't ask me, Check their Cyworlds. 6) How bout savior? bisu? july lol? Don't know about Savior or Bisu, but I've been told July has a girlfriend. 7) Hows july doing? He's jolly as usual. 8) Whats a good new korean movie? I haven't seen it yet, but Handphone looks interesting. 9) Where do koreans come from? Outer Space? 10) Do you have a bf? Yes. 11) How does savior practice? He can't. His power is now so legendary he just has to look at computers and they explode. 12) Do any of the team members ever practice with others outside of their team? Yes, it's very common. 13) How many questions are you willing to answer? Too many. 14) When is your break time over? God knows. 15) Where do you work? In a room. 16) Can i have ur number? Do you fancy paying for a call to Korea? 17) Are you freal? Define 'freal.' 18) Do you think savior will win the 09 msl? I believe (sometimes.) 19) Will he win the next blizzcon? Possibly. 20) Do you think the newer players (JD, flash, fbh, etc) attend blizzcon? I can kidnap them for us? 21) Why didn't they attend last time? Because I didn't kidnap them? | ||

I love teaching kindey though. It requires a lot of energy and some dancing/singing/general madness. However, it's really rewarding seeing kids taking their first steps in English. | ||
