Today after school, I decided to take subway and to go and watch KT vs eSTRO, for 2 reasons. The first one is that I already planned to watch the match with my friend from KT, Jeong Yong Hui. Then, I wanted to watch KT. eSTRO made an incredible match against Hwaseung, so I wanted to see if they could be in the same shape against KT.
The first set starts: Lee Yeong Ho vs Kim Doh Woo (If.Classic). That's really impressive how Lee Yeong Ho dominated this game. What a huge control map. Destination looks to be an excellent map for him. In my opinion, the first set was interesting to watch because of this main reason about the control map. Then, the second set arrived. I was really excited to watch this one, because I really like Park Ji Soo (fOrGG). He played against a famous oldschool terran who is playing for eSTRO for a long time now, Shin Hee Seung (UpMaGiC). During this game, I feel Park Ji Soo in a really bad shape: Shin Hee Seung made a good Wraith push and the KT Terran was in panic. But forGG made an excellent move afterwards, and manage to put a hard push in the UpMaGic's base. Then the game was over. 2-0 for KT! Now, we are coming to anm incredible set. The LostSaga MSL Champion, Park Chan Soo against a famous eSTRO Zerg, Shin Dae Kun (hyvaa). Well, the game started pretty bad for the KT Zerg. With my Korean girls friend from the same university than me, who attend everytime the KT match, we really thought the "gg" was coming soon, after 5 minutes of game but... I didn't understand at all... I couldn't believe what happened in front of my eyes. Park Chan Soo made lot of Scourges, and the eSTRO had a poor micro (honnestly, that's true), he lost all his Mutalisks. Well, the KT player went to Shin Dae Kun's base, and waiting for Mutalisk with his Scourges. The game was almost over. hyvaa tried to push Luxury with zerglings but again, the KT player killed all zerglings. The eSTRO player had nothing to attack and to defend, then a "gg" appeared, under the sadness of eSTRO team. 3-0 for KT under 1 hour.
Well, after the match, I was waiting for players and talk a little bit with the Korean fan girls. They knew about my birthday and they celebrate with the Korean song. It was really funny, I appreciate these girls. They are really friendly. The fan boy leader is pretty cool too, a really nice guy. Then, we took pictures with players as always. The most thing funny was that I couldn't choose with who I could take the pictures. The girls told me "Yesterday it was your birthday, we want you with Lee Yeong Ho, then with Park Chan Soo and Woo Jung Ho." Ahah, I really loved this way how girls told me that, a kind of order under the funny moment, some players laughed about that. Really, I love this atmosphere, everything in kindness.
Ahaha, the photo is so blow right.... yeah, you want to know the reason? The girl who took picture was laughing about the order that she gave me with her friends ahah! She wanted to apologize and took again the pictures but I really didn't care, it was ok, I could take another one later! Afterwards, Lee Yeong Ho heard about my birthday because girls told him during the shoot, I totally didn't hear and after the photo, Lee Yeong wished me a pretty birthday. Really kind from him.
I really like this picture. Look players face, they are so natural. You see through their faces that they are so kind. And this is the truh. Park Chan Soo and Woon Jung Ho are really kind and really sociable. They really love this atmosphere and too. They are so relax with people arround like that, They laugh, and almost all the time, they talk about other things than StarCraft (next to some questions about their strategies, their chances to win against someone, etc...)
Well, that's over for today. Tomorrow I should be attend to the MSL. I will attend to the OSL (Friday) and the ProLeague (this week end) normally. Maybe I will write again tomorrow, or this week end.
If this post wasn't decent you would have been insta 2-day banned. Please dont post blatant spoilers in your titles ever again - consider this your last warning
Sorry for the title... I didn't know about the spoiler. I didn't think a lot about the title. I will think about that next time, I will not make the mistake. Thanks for warming me!
Pierre, why do you post about every time you go to the game? The first few times you posted about them, I understand you were excited because you get to go to the stadium and meet players, but you don't need to constantly post about it. Are you bragging to make people feel jealous?

This guy spent a shitload of money in fanboi gear to pose as the n1 fan of a cs team on an interview. Then did the same thing on a complete different team. Then abused ICCup to D+ only to convince a clueless esports team to sponsor him and post on their mainpage that they just hired a french sc "pro-gamer". Then even had the balls to go Combat-Ex mode about it and say it was some random guy impersonating him.
He is involved in thousands of bragging dramas through his career.
What else would you expect of someone like this with a camera on Korea? lol

Because she is obviously replaceable with another Korean girl, since he flirts with all the fangirls right? Might as well stick to baseline descriptions here, we are not describing an identity but a social status.

It's just the way you write it. You make it sound like you are the only person who has ever taken pictures with the players and that everyone already knows you and loves you. I know you are excited to be there, but you just sound like you're the ONLY PERSON EVER to do this.

susie, what's with the hate?
(not a criticism, just curiosity)
Because I'd hate to be called someone's "KOREAN GIRLFRIEND". It's kinda rude to her, since she's in a ton of his pictures. He can't just call her by her name? or just even "my girlfriend"? Why the emphasis on the fact that she's Korean?

nevergg uses their real names alot too, and ive never seen you bitch about that. seriously is it that much of an issue?
That is *far* from the only issue. I also hardly ever type more than a paragraph introducing my posts and subtitle all progamer names in my articles with their screen names - I am used to using their real names during photo shoots/events and other journalistic work such as gathering messages for the current project so sometimes I do forget to include the IDs. Don't drag me into this mess.

sorry, im not trying to blame you or say its wrong or anything, it just ticks me off because i know the only reason konadora said it was because of the whole toad drama from earlier. if he was as well respected in the community as you im sure he would cop no shit at all

I can't speak for others. But as for myself. I've got the same reason to bash this guy that I do for bashing Combat-ex. Once you're a dishonest bitch, you'll always be a dishonest bitch. And I'll throw rotten tomatoes at you and boo you whenever you come in my line of sight. Many will disagree with me, many dislike this, many even hate those who act like me. But that's how I feel is the best way to deal with it. This lack of decency should be discouraged as much as possible imho.

Did you stilllll didn't read that thread? It's highly recommended. Yes I've lied to make myself look better before, but I never murdered half the jews on europe. You cross the line somewhere between those. Each person crosses the line at different spots. I personally placed my line waaaay before Toad.
oh my, i was wondering how many blogs it would take for this to happened. Just know that there was hate before them and the blogs have simply confirmed that which was suspected. Priceless MSpaint moment.

No on here is persecuting him for past wrongs, they just set the mood, and raised awareness. People are angry because he seems to be sucking in as much of the spotlight as humanly fucking possible, he flaunts everything and anything available, from degrading his girlfriend to a simple description, a human being who he is supposedly involved with is reduced to a tool he calls "my korean girlfriend", to his pro-gamer "friends".
NeverGG who has been a wonderful member to this community once posted in jest that she had more autographs than an OP who was proud of his, she was called a douche almost instantly. She has a history of a being friendly, helpful, and caring member of TL. Toad, or Gosu as he now likes to call himself, has no such reputation, in fact his reputation is quite the opposite, (but let's not get into that) and gets away unscathed with blog after blog of name dropping and show boating.
So you see, it's not that he is unfuckingredeemable, it's that he is effectively making his sterling reputation worse.

As you can see from this thread. Many people here had no idea who we was and what he has done. Because he tries to hide his dirty past. If we have done like you said and ignored this blog. He would have fooled much more people.
If someone does something good. We show them support. To show others that it's a good thing to do an incentive other people to do the same as that person. And that does works. As you can see in many positive blogs here on TL. But when someone does the opposite, we react the opposite. And apparently it does work as well.

Uhh this dosen't make any sense, what are you trying to say?
Guys you are too hard on him who cares what he has done in the past some ppl enjoy reading his blogs... if you dont like his blogs(or the person that writes them) just ignore every blog you see his name on and move on .
His cheating has nothing to do with this just some ppl are jealous and full of hate .
I really don't understand why is there so much drama here. This guy is not combat-ex, he's not making apology videos and then abusing right after. All that Frag Dominant business is history, he's not into that stuff anymore. All he's doing is posting his observations from watching pro league live. Some of us like what he writes.

I can't speak for others. But as for myself. I've got the same reason to bash this guy that I do for bashing Combat-ex. Once you're a dishonest bitch, you'll always be a dishonest bitch. And I'll throw rotten tomatoes at you and boo you whenever you come in my line of sight. Many will disagree with me, many dislike this, many even hate those who act like me. But that's how I feel is the best way to deal with it. This lack of decency should be discouraged as much as possible imho.
so someone does one thing wrong and you bash them for it, even though its not relevant here? youve never been dishonest? if you have, maybe i should fling shit at you everytime i see you post right? really man, get over it and either read and enjoy, or dont read it and hate it. take the thread for what it is, and just ignore the history.
id hate to do something wrong to you because everyone seems to be unfuckingredeemable to you
I dont understand why you love this gosu guy so much, hes done nothing good
No on here is persecuting him for past wrongs, they just set the mood, and raised awareness. People are angry because he seems to be sucking in as much of the spotlight as humanly fucking possible, he flaunts everything and anything available, from degrading his girlfriend to a simple description, a human being who he is supposedly involved with is reduced to a tool he calls "my korean girlfriend", to his pro-gamer "friends".

I think the bolded part is what most people here disagrees. These blogs have the same intention as what he has done in the past. He didn't change. Others even gave him the benefit of doubt and allowed him to go this far and post this many blogs. I personally started bashing him on his first blog if you look at it, but I was almost alone there. The others have been waaay to nice to him so far, imho. But this was the last drop, I guess.
What is wrong with you people? The guy didn't kill anybody, jesus.
GoSu, as susie told you, use IDs instead of Korean names, make your posts less pretentious, especially don't make it appear like you have been friends with the pros for 10 years. Just make your blog about the events, not about you. And don't listen to these degens here.
everything that needs to be said has been said. despite his failings this guy seems to be nice, enthusiastic, and genuinely proud to be an involved fan for sc. i'm looking through his post history and it certainly does not warrant this bullshit over-the-top hate. can we just drop this and see how his next blogs turn out?
fact: korean progamers will never be friends with foreign fanboys / fangirls
fact: they will act like it though to satisfy the fanboy in the hopes they go away
fact: gosu is just having a good time and if you all really actually care enough to get irritated by him acting like he's their friend or whatever...well u need to get a life

I'll tell you people's issues with you, also. You can choose to address them or not, I don't give a fuck:
1. Calling her your Korean girlfriend. Give her a name or call her your girlfriend. 2. On TL, we use the progamer IDs. Using their names makes it seem like you are friends. I'm friends with some people on TL and I still use their IDs, so... 3. You aren't the prettiest girl at the ball. Meaning, your writing style makes it seem like you're in a whirlwind of people waiting to come up to talk to you. 4. Your background. You haven't fully addressed the issue of this, and it affects a lot of people. You expect us to believe someone make a fake ID of Toad and abused? Who would smurf a fake person? And then you met Tasteless and he said "I knew that wasn't you Toad." Really? You expect us to believe that?
Frankly, I don't care about the above issues. They're annoying, but I like reading your blogs. So address them or don't, but please don't stop making blogs.
I dont know about you guys but I dont care about the guy's past or who he is. All I know is he posts pictures of progamers in casual non-"Im gonna destroy this noob" times, and I like that. Thats why I read (or look at the pics of) his blogs. I understand lilsusie's point about calling your girlfriend "my korean girlfriend" because I think that is rude too but geez guys, you are taking an issue that doesnt really concern you because you only know this guy over the internet too seriously.
For me, more progamer pics, more fun. I await for more pics.

I take abuse pretty seriously, as any competitive community would.
There were reports from people when he was SK fanboy (the CS team/recent SC team scandal) and he bought all their gear and followed their players (ToD?) to events etc. You can see him wearing a SK fleece thing in one of his pictures in his profile. Anyway point is people were saying he became really obsessive over SK
Now he's basically a koreaphile and while i find his obsessive personality really funny in a sad/pathetic way his blogs do actually have interesting content
And they do come off as pretty obvious brags (heh, my korean girlfriend, who is korean) but that doesn't really bother me because I am not particularly envious

i mean honestly, that second pic is one of the more genuinely nice photos ive seen: luxury being badass, no name guy happy, awkward white guy. it's not like he faked the photos. he's writing about his day etc; hell, i know when i went and watched pro SC live for the first time i was hella happy and kept talking about it with my longD girlfriend etc etc.
lilsusie you're being retardedly immature. it's one thing if you're upset with this guy for his prior wrongs or whatever -- but really, since when did we remember past wrongs on the internet? -- but you're flaming overzealously over an innocent mistake in vernacular and your perception that he's "bragging".
Because I'd hate to be called someone's "KOREAN GIRLFRIEND". It's kinda rude to her, since she's in a ton of his pictures. He can't just call her by her name? or just even "my girlfriend"? Why the emphasis on the fact that she's Korean?
stop taking things so personally. every white guy who has a korean gf will talk about her as his korean gf, just as every korean who is dating someone other than korean will mention his/her ethnicity when describing him/her. This is fact. Don't try to make it seem like Koreans are the victim of some sort of racial degradation when you know that we are probably the most racist people in the world.
I've talked to him personally (yes, I do know him) and no, I'm not taking things personally. If he kept on saying "my __ girlfriend" over and over, it would still irk me. He's mentioned her enough times that he should just say her name. It shouldn't matter if she's Korean, or French or Martian. She's the girlfriend, that's all that matters.
I like his blogs, as a person he seems calm and modest to me, so I'm not feeling he is trying to show off or smth. Clearly the guy is having the time of his life, I'm happy for him and as a read his blogs are always enjoyable. Keep them coming mate!
I don't mind reading the blogs, he puts up nice pictures and I don't think he's genuinely looking for trouble, so I'm not going to start hating him. I do think that he should take the criticisms of his writing style in mind though, I could see how some people would be annoyed that he uses the Korean names (I don't really mind), etc.

why does anyone post any blog? because they are writing about something that they did and they want to share. isn't that what he's doing here? whats so bad about that? everyone blogs the same way.
you can ask the same "are you bragging to make people feel jealous" about every single blog every user writes. at least here he's telling a nice story and showing some pictures about something we all care about (progaming).

Its the foreign man's dream to date an exotic Asian girl. Then f^%# them and leave and marry a White girl. Thats why the girl is more of an item with no name (just a tool with usage) rather than a person
I can't believe random internet people are defending your girl more than, you, her boyfriend, is. Calling her your Korean girlfriend is really insulting (suggesting that's her only trait slash you have more girlfriends and are collecting nationalities) and just don't ever do it again ok and if you really need an adjective just go with "my awesome girlfriend" edit: I dun care about the rest, keep bloggin, oh and don't use the real names cause it's fkn confusing.
Hey Rekrul, you were right about something you said a couple months ago. I went to Korea for a couple weeks last month, and every white guy I saw there had a Korean girlfriend, and the girls were always mediocre or just below par, but the guys looked as if they were with an angel or something.
It's not like these girls even speak good english anyway. From what I've seen during the three weeks, every single one of these girls had terrible english. I'm pretty sure almost any university student that learned whatever little english they were force-fed during high school can speak as well as they did.
Man. People always talk about how asian guys can't get any white girls while white and black guys get all the asian girls they want, but all the asian girls these whites and blacks take are all fucking terrible. They're doing us a favour, IMO.

I'm fairly sure almost all of these white fellows have had a decent amount of exposure to Asians in their own country before they came to Korea, particularly the North American ones.

Yea but if you aren't exposed to them like day-in day-out it's a little hard to judge beauty. I'm serious. Obviously the gorgeous asians are evident, but a lot of asian girls look similar to me. I'm sure to people without exposure to certain races it's way easier for an ugly girl to look average.

ITS TRUE WHITE GUYS ARE THE REASON WHY UGLY ASIAN GIRLS IN AMERICA THINK THEY"RE THE SHIT; IF THEY GREW UP IN KOREA THEYD KNOW HOW UGLY THEY ARE AND KNOW THEIR PLACE
EPT
If.Classic). That's really impressive how Lee Yeong Ho dominated this game. What a huge control map. Destination looks to be an excellent map for him. In my opinion, the first set was interesting to watch because of this main reason about the control map.
hyvaa). Well, the game started pretty bad for the KT Zerg. With my Korean girls friend from the same university than me, who attend everytime the KT match, we really thought the "gg" was coming soon, after 5 minutes of game but... I didn't understand at all... I couldn't believe what happened in front of my eyes. Park Chan Soo made lot of Scourges, and the eSTRO had a poor micro (honnestly, that's true), he lost all his Mutalisks. Well, the KT player went to Shin Dae Kun's base, and waiting for Mutalisk with his Scourges. The game was almost over. hyvaa tried to push Luxury with zerglings but again, the KT player killed all zerglings. The eSTRO player had nothing to attack and to defend, then a "gg" appeared, under the sadness of eSTRO team. 3-0 for KT under 1 hour.![[image loading]](http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/2787/p090624001.jpg)
