yes.
Sorry to hijack this thread but is there somewhere a schedule of this? Tried to search in the TL calender but to no avail. Totally new to Brood war so no idea where to find it.
Reminds me when people used to notice PR and discuss it. I really hope Flash can comeback soon. He deserves the right to sit on his throne. Being out might cost him his #1 streak.
The points feel so low. I don't really follow how the point system works, but how come no one's above 2k this month? Wasn't Flash still like 3k a couple months ago?

Yeah . Even kespa points have fallen so low , because of no BW . I remember when Jaedong and Flash were at their prime they were rocking above 4000 points ...
Really need to watch some fresh BW. This is sickening me. Even when I quit smoking I didn't feel such strong withdrawal symptoms. And I got VODs and replays.
Made a sick dream last night where I was attending PL finals. It was SKT vs CJ ! Stork made a huge choreography with a KPOP band as a closing ceremony of the Day 1.

That was only a year ago, for Flash. He broke 4000 after his dual golds.
When will BW start?? OMG This is making me crazy .. seriously crazy .. like batshitinsane crazy .. Some recent BW news were very depressing to BW fans but I know for sure, when PL start, it all be over. Worries will be gone, hopes will endure, and Bisu will raep ass ..

My guess, either 12th or 19th November.
what about msl ryo T_T
Unlikely to happen.
edit: When asked by a fan whether he knows if the 8th team will be formed, Coach Han (Oz) said that related news will be released soon. He didn't say if it's positive or negative news so don't get your hopes up.

For the record, gogo didn't outmacro Bisu in that game, nor in that series. I saw that first game on Great Barrier Reef, and boy is that map TvP imba. If all maps were like that, Flash would have a 95% winrate in TvP. gogo took advantage of the map to get a really fast safe 3rd, and then he had a significant lead already, but kept on taking expansion after expansion, because the map allowed him to defend them. Bisu should have read him better and adapted, but he didn't lose because he got outmacroed. Game 2, gogo tried to punish Bisu's fast 3rd with a 4 factory timing attack, but the attack was too late, so he lost. He needed to put those factories down sooner, or maybe a deep-4/5 timing attack would have worked better. I've also seen Flash move out on just 2 factories and win in similar situations, but that's Flash. Game 3 was just a 1 base timing push by gogo that shouldn't have worked against Bisu, the master of Protoss micro. Bisu seemed very much out of balance through the whole series, and if I remember correctly, SKT sent him on a vacation shortly afterward, so he probably didn't do himself much justice in that series.

The suspense is making me nervous though... Hoping the news is released sometime this week.

fantasy/jaedong split his reign for 2 months. but he has the most months overall.

Although October was devoid of games in 2011, it was not in 2010. Kespa ranking includes games within the previous 12 months (heavily weighted towards recent games, of course). So it was necessary to have a new ranking to get rid of October 2010's games.
The year long thing is why Stork is still so high because of his peaking in November 2010 - January 2011. Unless he rocks a 60%+ win rate in SPL, he will fall pretty sharply in the next few Kespa rankings. Go Stork!
