I've stored all the videos now so they're safe from the upcoming Blip Apocalypse. If anyone else wants a backup, you can use the script on the bottom of page 1.

I'm sorry to be that guy, I have respect for both communities, but any SC2 daily viewer watching these, would INSTANTLY notice how much more Day9 was excited for, in awe of, and emotionally involved in BW than he is for SC2.

I was kind of looking for it, so the difference was quite stark, but he talks about every detail like a wide eyed 12 year old for BW, in SC2 he kind of gets this monotone analytical voice and talks about doing pushes and says ETC a lot... you don't see him spending a lot of time in BW replays @ 4X speed.

^_^

<3 Day[9]

EDIT: Oh, btw, #45 is one of the best games of BW ever played, even though there are a ton of those there. This one struck me as super interesting.

Oh god, even now that I am slowly becoming a vet in this community, I still can find myself erudite on the game post watching Sean again.

Nice.

Also, I heard Sayle talking in some of his proleague casting that there is somewhere compilation of non-starcraft (basically, after-bw and non-sc2) day9 talking. Anyone know where it is?

Sorry for the noob question but, how do I use this script? Is there a firefox add-on or 3rd party software I need to get or something?

Thanks!

like a tribute to bw..
PLEASE

I wouldn't be the same. His whole behaviour changed to much imo. Not to mention I liked the old style way more

You need to save the post as day9post.txt, install Python and movgrab on your system, then save the code as a Python script and run it.

You can replace "movgrab" with the path to any program capable of downloading videos from blip.tv (taking an URL as a command line argument).

Note that it will sequentially download all videos in the post.

Ahhh, I remember these initial dailies. I watched him every time and generally stopped watching when he made the change over to sc2

I still love watching sc2 live and I like watching the streams, but I can't get behind the tournaments unless tyler is in them for no reason at all that I can think of. Just the analysis in his BW dailies was over the top and I still remember his analysis of Hiya vs Flash vividly. So intense and amazing.

If all that python scripting / movgrab stuff is too complicated, download http://jdownloader.org/download/index , quote the original post and highlight all the text & press ctrl+c. Jdownloader will extract the urls from that copy command. Then you can right click in the link grabber tab and then press "Continue with all" or individually select which ones you want with the "Continue with selected package" option. Be warned, all of them combined are about 21 gigs in file size.

Oh boy thank you! Now I can find the daily of him doing analyis of my shitty bw play!! One of the most embarrassing moments of my starcraft career was day9 making fun of my macro on a daily <3
