You know I was just browsing this thread again to see what kind of shit would crop out and thanks to you good sir I almost gave my monitor a wash. Guys say it so many times eventually people are actually going to fucking believe them. My God. If you've ever done any research on the matter. Hell no. They were never pro gamers. Ever. Not ever ever ever. I don't know how to make myself more clear. In Brood War they were Ammmmmateurs. Say it with me. Amateurs. Just like the other 99.9999999 percent (actually... it would probably be even higher, but you get the point!). These guys were never even close, in fact Sean was only a prominent player back in 04-06. Even then he had problems beating such players like Sen in training. Still he was an amateur. Not making a living off of it and he finishing school as the same time like almost everyone else. A whole whack of them were still in school and the whole going pro thing was more like a dream. Stop believing everything you hear when they talk. They do it to make themselves look better. Nothing wrong with it. They're trying to sell themselves to the audience time and time again, but the reality is very different. Greg got fucking lucky when Super Dan man decided to take him in. Other guys like Assem, Leggionaire, Draco, etc. had to work their butts off for it. Next time do us all a favor and don't speak out of your ass. * Now back on topic, this news of Tossgirl shouldn't be sad. I mean a lot of you guys saw this coming years ago. I cannot believe they're only announcing it now to be honest. | ||

"So when was the last time you played?" "3 years ago." "Do you ever want to play at the pro level again?" "No." "Well shit, announce your retirement and you'll have a good excuse to throw a huge party!" | ||

She got knocked out straight away but still  | ||

 ToSsGirL. Hope she would get a chance to be a commentator or stay in the scene somehow. It must be difficult to go back to school when you're closing in on your 30's, especially in korea where unviersity diplomas is so important.On July 01 2012 11:07 StarStruck wrote: -text- My God.
