The beginning of a career in E-sports
Hello, my name is Daniel Lee, but you can call me Super Daniel Man. Former professional Starcraft team coach and now e-sports commentator with Tasteless for GOMTV, and this is my first blog on Starfeeder.
The year 1999 in October, I can't remember the exact date or the day, but that is when I met up with Guillaume Patry(XDs~grrrr) and Victor Martyn(Everlast), oh yeah our girlfriends were all there too. We had met previously on Battle.net first, and the original intention for the follow up gathering was to have a nice dinner and get to know one another. It really wasn’t a business meeting it was more like a friends get together. I was extremely happy to meet up with people that were fluent in English and I think they were too. You have to understand that Korea was to me, back then a very foreign country.
The rest here at his official blog:

That's like saying Ferguson shouldn't earn money because that's C.Ronaldo who scores...

Why would he lie on something so easy to get caught? How do you know these things? I'll ask everlast tonight, I am curious.

Im confused, shouldn't that be the 4th?
I remember
flash vs stork finals
flash vs jaedong finals
bisu vs jangbi finals
Unless seasons go until 3 and are supposed to reset each year or something. Someone should really make a big gomtv standings thread with history etc like the osl/msl threads.

Flash vs. Stork was the GSI.
|
What's the difference? Same website, channel, league.... pretty much the same in almost every aspect as far as I can remember.
Also the season with flash vs jaedong seems to be completely absent from the TLPD, why is that?
|
GSI was a 16 man inviational tournament, not quite the same as the gigantic GSL.
And Season 1 isn't in TLPD because it wasn't Kespa sanctioned, I think.
|
Yeah, the reason was that the GSI was invite and S1 is considered by most fans as a season of Gom TV, since the last season was S2 (that was the name). So logically...
