team 8 securing playoff position
Thanks for reminding me about this.
I think we have to rework this one, considering recent events. I might have jumped the gun when the twitter came out, something seemed up back then. I think he is happy now anyway.
Maybe something like an encouragement now that things are going full steam on SC2. I don't know. The actual Jaedong fans can take over too. It was amazing to see a lot of volunteers for this project. Maybe we can have this organized in the future, hopefully on a more positive note.
Needless to say, spoilers for those who missed yesterday's results
But first, this project might take a month or so to complete. Jaedong needs our support now.
Please tweet Jaedong your support and words of encouragement now:

maybe we can use #tl<3jaedong
Now with this project,

Jaedong twitter on April 22
"I wonder the way I lived is correct? I feel quite dubious today."
I am not the biggest Jaedong fan, in fact I am not a Jaedong fan at all, as fan goes. But I'm sure my feeling is similar to others when I read this tweet above. Jaedong is one of the hardest working and most skilled players of all time, and to see him plunged this low is devastating. I think we as a community could do much to help him pick up himself and to regain his form as the Tyrant once more, be it in BW or SC2.
Project summary:
This would be like the A Zergling for Jaedong Project but the goal now is to encourage Jaedong, to remind him that he is one of the greatest, and give him the confidence to once again become:

Some people beleve in God, we beleve in the TYRANT!
Brave and Awesome Volunteers
1. supernovamaniac - bag man, give it to him, he will deliver it to Jaedong!
2. [V] - layout team
3. commiekaze - digital/print art/all-in-one art master!
4. Comput3r - writing, layout, art!
Other Concerns
1. Someone mentioned the need to have it in eMag/wordpress format, which is a good idea. I am not a techie person, so in case this is the direction we take, we need some volunteer(s)/project leaders capable of handling that
2. While I volunteer as the pro tempory initiator of this project, someone might be more capable and more enthusiastic to take over. Don't be shy, just raise your hand.
3. We might eventually need to discuss logistics, specifically getting finances to our ground person (supernovamaniac, et al), for printing/production and delivery fees.
4. You may also send materials such as DVD, sculpture, etc. to go with the magazine. We will discuss later how to do this (supernovamaniac, et al)
5. Someone also mentioned, and yes I overlooked this, but English to Korean translators. Do we need this or do we let Jaedong read it along with a friend of his who can translate it for him. The task for this would be gargantuan.
6. Don't hesistate to post your own suggestions or comments regarding this project.
